Q: How do I become a coach myself?
A: Simply click on this link: https://teambeachbody.com/signup/-/signup/coach?referringRepId=120213
Q: How much does it cost to become a coach?
A: There is an initial $39.95 fee for your startup materials, setup your backend office, and to launch your TeamBeachbody.com websites. But, there are ways to have these fees waived as well.
After that, it’s just $15.95/month for your back office. The back office is a website that Beachbody provides for you that keeps track of your business: sales, team sales, customers, commissions, downline, rank advancement, as well as some training, sales tools, and much more. Think of this as your overhead… a mere $15.95/month. That won’t pay the coffee bill for most businesses.
Q: What’s the first goal when becoming a coach?
A: The first goal is to become an “ACTIVE” coach. Being active will qualify you for your commissions and bonuses. To be active, you must obtain 50PV points per month. All products have a PV point value and based on which item it is. Example: P90X Program is worth 90PV points. The easiest way to become active quickly is by purchasing the Shakeology Home Direct. This too is worth 90PV. You will become active immediately, receive a fantastic product at a 25% discount, and it will help you both your personal fitness and your business. This is an absolute necessity for any successful coach – how can you recommend a product if you’re not using the product yourself?
Q: How much time do I have to dedicate in order to be a coach?
A: How long you spend on your business is your decision. Like most anything, the more time you spend on it, the better your results will be. I’d shoot for at least an hour a day to get you going. My guess is that the more you do, the more you will want to do. There’s something addictive about getting paid to help people live healthier lifestyles. There are some coaches that only ever want to spend a minimal amount of time on their business… and there are others that do it full-time. It’s your business so it’s up to you.
Q: Is the Beachbody Coaching Opportunity a scam?
A: No, not even close. Unfortunately for me, I wasted about 9 months trying to poke holes in Beachbody and the business model, 9 months I could have spent really working hard at the business. I have a wife and 4 kids and didn’t want to invest my time into something that could be a total waste. But I talked to other coaches and started experiencing the success for myself and I was hooked. It’s legitimate and it’s a blast.
Q: What are some of the benefits of becoming an Independent Beachbody Coach?
- You are a personal business owner with unlimited income potential.
- You get paid every week.
- You receive 25% off all Beachbody products.
- You get your own personalized website and storefront built for you by Beachbody.
- You are not responsible for shipping or inventory.
- You have the opportunity to help others get into shape and live a healthier lifestyle.
Q: Do I have to have a great transformation to be a coach?
A: Nope. The most important thing to have is to have integrity, have a passion for helping others, and have the relentless desire to succeed. Don’t wait on this opportunity just because your transformation wasn’t as good as someone else’s. The sooner you get started, the better. Not everybody responds well to the same things. A ripped guy coach might even be intimidating to the heavier young woman. But hopefully, the heart of the coach will break down any reluctancy as they come alongside the team member and help them achieve their goals.
Q: Do I have to build a website like this one?
A: Nope. We built this site for you! Building a site takes a ton of time and resources. You don’t have time for that. Plus, why build a bunch of competing websites, clamoring for attention. We are in this together! One site for all of us to use, share, benefit from and improve over time with your input.
Q: Is there only one way to coach?
A: Absolutely not. What works for some doesn’t work for others. As I said above, I’m a writing major and so sitting behind a computer and writing some stuff for the world to see appeals to me. That doesn’t work for everyone. Many coaches want to do group training with their P90X Certification. Others want to lead Fit Clubs. Others do stuff at their work, neighborhood, or church, others use email, letters, the phone, hold home gatherings. There’s no wrong way, and that’s part of the beauty of this opportunity. You can use your own gifts and interests and apply it to this business in the way that best fits your personality. Yes, there will be things that might stretch you and you’ll be challenged to step out of your comfort zone. But at the end of the day, Beachbody doesn’t want clones. It wants to reach the heart of people and the only way to do that is with other people.
Q: What if I’m not very knowledgable about fitness?
A: You don’t have to be a fitness expert to be a Beachbody coach. I was a trainer in the 90’s and I’m learning stuff all the time. Discoveries are made. The science changes. Techniques are developed. What you do need to have is a desire to learn about fitness and then share that with others. That’s it! Nobody has all the fitness knowledge, so don’t wait until you’ve learned it all. You won’t.
Q: What kind of training will I get?
A: Beachbody has excellent training. From the Getting Started Right program you’ll go through with me to the Coach Training Academy videos in the back office to Super Saturday events and the Annual Summit Event, there’s no shortage of ways to to get trained. But most importantly, as your coach, I will walk beside you and mentor you so that you will have all the the tools you need to become as successful as you’d like.
Q: Is the Coaching Opportunity open to anyone outside the US?
A: Currently, the Coaching Business is US and Canada, with plans to reach Mexico and beyond.
Q: How do I make money being a coach?
A: You make commission on all the products your customers (aka team members) purchase, new/renewal of Club Memberships, and Team Bonuses. Once you build a successful foundation of other coaches, you can receive bonuses based on the amount of sales they are generating.
