No BS, just the facts on Beachbody Coaching!
I have been a Beachbody Coach since 2010, and I've heard all kinds of positives and negatives about this opportunity, and I've found that a lot the bad talk is mostly because people do not understand what Beachbody Coaching is really all about, or they "tried and failed" at it, and won't admit that they didn't do what it took to become successful, and now all they can do is talk about how it didn't work for them, but in a bad way. I'd like to clarify some things for you =)
"If you want to be an Entrepreneur, you don't talk to someone who has failed in the business, you get advice from people who have found success"
Beachbody Coaching is definitely not for everyone, but it definitely could be. I don't know anyone in this world who would not want to be more happy, healthy, and fit, let alone surround themselves with people who only want success for them. It's really that simple!
Here are some STRAIGHT UP FACTS about this sometimes misunderstood "business":
- GET RICH QUICK:
This is a 2-5 year plan! Yes, as a Beachbody Coach, you can earn immediate income with thousands of dollars in commissions every week, but to be able to do this as a full-time gig with a Six-Figure Income (residuals) or more, it can take 2-5 years of consistent hard work, but isn't that better than working 20-40 years of your life for a boss?
- PERSONAL TRAINERS:
Beachbody Coaching and Personal Training is NOT the same thing. Although the company Beachbody does offer specific certifications for such programs as P90X, Insanity, and PIYO etc, it is not required in order to become a Beachbody Coach. Most Coaches are not even certified, and trust me, it's A ok, it's not about that. Beachbody Coaching is about using the fitness and nutrition programs, getting REAL results, and paying it forward by helping others. Beachbody Coaches are motivators, accountability partners, and life coaches focused on helping people with their fitness and financial goals. I doubt that your personal trainer teaches you about earning financial freedom, if so, he probably would charge you for that too. Beachbody Coaches do this for free!

- SALESMAN:
Me a salesman? LOL, far from it! One of the most misunderstood things about Beachbody Coaching is that you have to be a salesman. That is definitely not true! Yes, there are some coaches out there that can sell you a car without an engine, but most Beachbody Coaches "hate" selling, and I'm definitely one of them. When was the last time that you referred someone to a nice restaurant? Have you ever encouraged someone to do a Spartan Race or a 5K race? Ever told a friend or family member about the awesome movie that you just watched the weekend before? Beachbody Coaching is about SHARING, not selling. We provide solutions! If you want to sell, go right ahead, but who want's to be a car salesman? Not me!
- PYRAMID SCHEMES:
If you look at the structure of the place where you work, tell me how that looks like. Now tell me who at your workplace makes the most money....most likely it's the guy on the top, the CEO. The biggest organizations and companies that most of you work for are PYRAMIDS (in structure): the government, your job, athletic clubs, and even the structure of a church is a pyramid. FYI, a "Pyramid Scheme" is illegal because it is based on the recruiting of people without any products or services being sold. With Beachbody Coaching, it's the complete opposite. Beachbody Coaches do not get paid for recruiting people, they earn income by moving products and services. Oh, and get this....the person at the bottom has the same opportunity to earn the same amount of income or more as the person at the top, so technically, that's not a Pyramid. Networking Marketing is a billion-dollar industry, and yes, there are some illegitimate companies out there, but that's how it is in every industry! Remember ENRON? So before you diss the Network Marketing Industry, it's pays to do your homework and get educated about this industry because if top leaders like Donald Trump, Warren Buffet and other billionaires are involved in it, then that should tell you something. Before listening to a friend that has failed in this business, try getting advice from someone who is making it happen and succeeding, it makes a huge difference!
- SATURATION:
As long as people continue to have babies =), there will never be a shortage of people who want to be happy, healthy, and pursue financial stability. "Whether you think you can or can't, you're right". If you think that you cannot inspire anyone, you're right. If you think you cannot be anymore successful then you already are, you're right. Beachbody Coaching has so much opportunity, and if you continue to make excuses, it will not happen, but if you continue to make things happen, then the sky's the limit!
- FIGHTING THE OBESITY TREND:
Today, two-thirds of adults and nearly one-third of children struggle with obesity. If obesity rates stay consistent, by 2030, 51% of the population will be obese. That's ridiculous! There is no doubt that obesity is an epidemic, and if there is one thing that would be a perfect reason to become a Beachbody Coach, this is it! Fighting the obesity trend first begins with you! Yes, there are other ways to fight this trend, and I'm not saying that being a Beachbody Coach is the only way to fight back, but what I am saying is that it is a great option to get involved. Whatever you do, and whatever option you decide to take, just make sure that it's all about helping and empowereing others, because that's what Beachbody Coaching is all about. The Beachbody Mission Statement says it all, "To help people achieve their goals and enjoy a healthy and fulfilling life".

- SHAKEOLOGY PRICE:
Shakeology is Beachbody's #1 continuity product. Yes, there are some coaches who overdo it with all of their annoying Shakeology posts, pictures, and selling tactics, but there is truth to all of this....Shakeology works! No, it's not a magic pill or anything, it's just a great way to get your daily dose of dense nutrition, probably the most healthiest meal of the day. I am not here to try to sell you on Shakeology, but I do encourage you to do your research like I did. Do compare the ingredients to what you are currently consuming, and I promise you that you will understand why Beachbody Coaches and customers are raving about it. Let's just say that there is a huge difference between a Bentley and a Chrysler 300. You get what you pay for. One of the biggest Shakeology Objections is the price of $129 (retail). But think about this, if you were to take one of your favorite meals for 30 days, yes it would be expensive! But if you were to break it down, it would be more appealing "price wise". Shakeology is only a little over $4 per meal, and that's less than a McDonald's combo which has no nutritional value. So rather than talking about price, maybe we should be more focused on what we are putting into our bodies. Remember this, you can be stuffing your face with cheap and processed foods now, and you think you're saving money, but trust me, in the future it will all come back to you with medical bills and meds. Is that the life? You can keep this from happening by living the healthy lifestyle now, and Shakeology can definitely help you with that.
- RESIDUAL INCOME:
This is where the real money is with Beachbody Coaching. It's not about selling products, it's about sharing your success, and helping others by building a team of people who share the same vision. Trading time for dollars is now a thing of the past. Most people will not give this opportunity a real chance and pursue Beachbody Coaching consistently for 2-5 years to achieve this, but for the ones who do, they will live the life they've always dreamed of. Beachbody Coaching is a lifestyle. Imagine earning income while you are sleeping, or making more money while on vacation (then at the office) with your family, that's what Beachbody Coaching can do for you! I am not a rockstar Coach in this business. You will not find me on the leaderboards. I am not an Elite Coach (yet), but if there is one thing that I am really good at, and that is NOT QUITTING. Oh, and if you think this business is all about money and materialism, then you are VERY wrong. I myself am a minimalist, and prefer camping over luxury hotels!! Just ask anyone who I've traveled with, they will tell you that I don't care about money, but there's a difference between money and freedom. This business is about building relationships and having the passion for truly helping people. When you consistently help others become successful, that's when you will be successful. Like I always say......If you want to be miserable, unhappy and broke for the rest of your life, then that's your business, but if you want to be happy, healthy, and financially fit, then that's my business!
- PROVEN SUCCESS SYSTEM:
People think that in order to be great at something, you have to know everything! That is untrue. Beachbody Coaching is not about being perfect, or knowing everything, it's about having the willingness to learn, getting out of the "status thinking" and being open to change. It really is ok to FAIL, if you are willing to learn from it and move on. I continue to fail, but that's how I am able to grow and become better. If I told you that you can eventually earn a six/seven figure income RESIDUAL in 2-5 years if you just follow a simple system, would you do it? Well, I have a proven system that if followed consistently, you will be able to do this. That's the difference between this business and "other" businesses that you will come across. Most people won't share their secrets of success. Most people won't share how they have gained financial freedom, but that's where Beachbody Coaching is different. Beachbody Coaching is about helping others become better than we already are, and that's non-traditional, but it's this same concept that is changing lives everyday, why not you? Who said that you have to punch a time clock everyday? Why would you allow someone to tell you when you can travel or spend time with your family and friends? Don't you deserve better than that? I think so.
One of my weekly residual commission checks from 2013
*Beachbody Coaches get paid weekly (every Thursday)
And there you have it! When people tell me that they absolutely love their jobs, I always say that's fantastic and I truly admire them for that. But when I invite them to travel the world with me, and they say, "I WISH!!, I just don't have the time or the funds to do that", that's when I have to question their freedom. Everyone has their definition of freedom and lifestyle, believe me, I totally understand. There are millions of people out there who love their jobs and let's face it, we need people to fulfill these jobs, but wouldn't it be nice if you had the option to work or not? Now that's freedom! You, yes YOU can have that if you are willing to just live happy, healthy and fit and share it with people, and that's what Beachbody Coaching is all about - straight up!
