Top 7 Reasons NOT to Become a Beachbody Coach
Let's face it, Beachbody Coaching is NOT for everyone. As a
Beachbody Coach, you are your own boss, and Entrepreneur, a Game Changer, and someone who is part of a group called the "2 Percenters". Everyone has "
what it takes", but not everyone will do it. There are a good handful of people who find out that Beachbody Coaching wasn't for them because of one, or all the the reasons below. They just were not prepared for the unknown, so I hope that this blog post may help people with a peak interest in Beachbody Coaching, and help them get some crucial information before diving right in. Now let's see if you have what it takes to
Become a Beachbody Coach.....or NOT.
Top 7 Reasons NOT to Become a Beachbody Coach:
1.
HELPING PEOPLE - In my opinion, this is the most important one of all. If you don't like helping people, and you are all about "YOU", then you would probably have a difficult time being a Beachbody Coach. A Coach is all about helping people with their health, fitness, and financial goals. So if you don't like people, it may be a challenge.
I help people get fit physically and financially, it's a lifestyle!
2.
TEACHABLE - This is one of the most difficult things for everyone to take in. Most people are set on their own ways, and everyone has brilliant ideas, and there is nothing wrong with that. But if you are not willing to learn a proven-system, and you try to re-invent the wheel, you will be up for a rude-awakening. There's a reason why this is a billion dollar business, because it works, and all you have to do is learn it. If I told you that I could show you how to earn a 6-7 figure income in only 2-5 years (
not 20-40 years under a boss), would you be open to learning how to do it? Most people would say "YES", then they do the complete opposite once they Become a Coach and wonder why it's so difficult. If you are "teachable" then you will make a GREAT Coach and it will get easier, if not, again....it will be very confusing for you.

3.
MONEY MOTIVATED - Yes, I know that Beachbody Coaching is a business! =) But trust me, it's not your typical business. This business is based on how many people you "TRULY" help. If you focus on the money, people will know, and they will just walk away. But if you are really, truly focused on helping them achieve their goals (whether you make money or not), then you will be successful. This business is quite simple, because all you really do is live the healthy and fit lifestyle and share it with people, and you GET PAID! That's crazy! That's the cool thing about being a Beachbody Coach, your income is based on the amount of people you've helped, it's based on your performance. The more people that you help, the more income you earn for you and your family. This is a "Life-Changing" business, we're not selling, we're sharing a lifestyle. So if you're "money-motivated" then Beachbody Coaching is definitely NOT for you.
4.
GET RICH QUICK - This kinda goes hand in hand with being "money motivated". Yes, you can make IMMEDIATE CASH as a Beachbody Coach, but you will not get rich overnight. Why?
Because this is a legal business model, not a "Pyramid Scheme". If you understand that it will take consistent hard work for 2-5 years before you will be able to have TRUE FINANCIAL FREEDOM, then you will be in good hands. But if you think that you are going to be a millionaire in one year, then you're fooling yourself. It took me a little over 2 years to fire 3 of my jobs, and that's because I worked hard, and stayed consistent. If it takes hard work, trust me, it means that it's REAL, and it will be worth it. If you work hard as a Beachbody Coach for 2-5 years and gain financial freedom for the rest of your life, what would that mean to you?
I still think it's a Pyramid Scheme =)
5.
EASILY INFLUENCED - You are who you hang around with, and I didn't make that up =). Let's face it, if you are hanging around negative people who are not focused on keeping you accountable to your goals, yes!!!! it will be very difficult for you to become a successful Beachbody Coach. When I helped start my Coach Team back in 2010, we only had 5 coaches. It was really tough, some of my friends and family didn't understand what I was doing and called it a scam. But if I listened to them back then, I would not be where I am today. Our coach team now has well over 17,000+ coaches on our team, and I am traveling the world and living my dreams! Our team is like one big family, we hold each other accountable and help each other through the good and bad times. If you want to be broke and unhealthy for the rest of your life, that's your business, but if you want to be fit physically AND financially, then that's my business =).
6.
GOALS - They say that 3% of the people who have dreams and goals write them down, 10% of the people who have dreams and goals keep them in their head, and 87% of the people out there don't have any dreams and goals. People who wrote down their goals were 42% more likely to achieve them than the ones who didn't. If you tell a friend, then that increases the rate to 78%.
What does this all mean? Well if you go into Beachbody Coaching without a goal or a "WHY" there is already an upfront failure rate of 58%. Not all Coaches come in with a goal, some of them find it once they become a Coach, and that is absolutely fine. But the longer you are a Coach without a goal or a lifetime dream, the failure rate will continue to rise. Goals are just important if you want to be successful, not just in Beachbody Coaching, but in everything that you do. So if you are not big on GOALS, then you may want to re-think your idea on becoming a Beachbody Coach. The bigger your goals, the more successful you will be as a Beachbody Coach!
7.
CONSISTENCY - A ha, here it is! the big "C" word. Most people can workout, eat healthy, run etc....but how consistent are they? One of the main reasons why people never accomplish big things in life is because they quit way too early. This happens in both business and fitness. The key to success in everything that you do is doing it everyday consistently. It's not about tackling huge daily projects, it's about doing small things everyday, and that's how you build huge success for the future. Find an accountability partner, and this will help with staying consistent with your goals. Another big part of this is finding the reason why you should stay consistent. For me, it's my daughter and my family. I am consistent with my Beachbody Business because I want my daughter and my family to have a good life, because they deserve it. If there is one person that I cannot give up on, it would be my daughter, and that is my "WHY". Find your why, and the consistency of this business will be non-negotiable.
Consistency is easy once you set goals, and have the right people to support you =)
So I hope this helps you understand some of the reasons why you should or should not become a
Beachbody Coach. I am always looking for goal-oriented people who want more out of life, and loves helping people, including themselves =). If you are someone like that, then let's talk about the possibilities!
As always, stay active my friends!
