Becoming a Coach

Q: Why should I consider becoming a coach?

A: To be completely honest, I initially become a coach to save money on my own purchases.  I had already discovered the incredible value of Shakeology Home Direct and Results and Recovery Formula, so by becoming a coach I would actually save money each month.  Financially, it was a no-brainer decision.  At the time, I didn’t realize how passionate I would become about the Beachbody coaching opportunity until I neared the end of my P90X journey.  I was amazed at how amazingly well these programs work, and how great I looked and felt!  All my friends were asking me what kind of workout I was doing, so I found myself talking about P90X all the time.  I wasn’t selling anything to anybody, but my results were a walking advertisement.  When my transformation video hit YouTube, I was literally bombarded with questions about what worked/didn’t work for me, and I saw the opportunity to really help others catch my passion for P90X.  Plus, by becoming a coach, I am now accountable to keep pushing play, keep getting more RIPPED, and keep setting a good example for my team members.  I can’t get lazy when I’ve got all of you looking up to me to lead you!!  If you are passionate about P90X, fitness, nutrition, or just want to help others achieve their goals, and are willing to be accountable as a coach to keep BRINGING IT, then I encourage you to consider coaching.

Q: How do I become a coach myself?

Q: How much does it cost to become a coach?

A: There is an initial $39.95 fee and then a monthly charge of $14.95 for your back office. The back office is a website that Beachbody provides for you that keeps track of your sales, team sales, customers, commissions, as well as some training, sales tools, and much more.

Q: How much time do I have to dedicate in order to be a coach?

A: The amount of time you spend is completely up to you. It just depends on what kind of coach you want to be.  You can be a coach simply for the purpose of saving money on your own products (for example, if you currently use Shakeology, the amount you save on your Shakeology purchase each month is more than the monthly fee to be a coach, so you’ll already be ahead!).  Or, if you want to make the investment of time to turn your coaching into a great part-time (or even full time) business, Beachbody is the perfect way to do that.  You are a product of the system, and your own results are a walking, talking advertisement that will bring people to you!  Plus, you are backed by Beachbody’s multi-million dollar advertising budget.

Q: What is the Showcase Package?

A: This is a great way to get a whole collection of popular Beachbody workout programs for one low cost.  For just $199, you can purchase a collection of Beachbody workout programs that normally costs over $400! The programs included are Turbo Jam, Power 90, Slim in 6, Yoga Booty Ballet, Hip Hop Abs, and P90X. You will also receive a set of B-Lines Resistance Bands and a YBB Squishy Ball. (As a note of comparison: the retail price of P90X is $119.85 plus S&H, and for just $80 more, you can have 5 more programs!)

Q: Do I have to have a great transformation to be a coach?

A: No! You have to have a passion for helping others and the desire to succeed. The earlier you start, the better.  Having a great transformation is just the icing on the cake, because my coaching business has literally exploded due to the response to my transformation.  Let that keep you motivated as you go through the program (Tell yourself that you can literally turn your results into a profitable business!  That might give you the extra incentive to Bring It!!)

Q: What if I’m not very knowledgable about fitness?

A: You don’t have to be a fitness expert to be a coach. I wasn’t when I first started. However, I’ve done a lot of research to learn as much as I could about fitness in general (and P90X / Insanity / One on Ones / P90X Plus in particular), nutrition, and supplements. The best time to start learning and becoming an expert is NOW!

Q: Will I get the proper training?

A: Beachbody has an excellent training program called the Coach Training Academy.  Whether you’re a new Coach or a seasoned leader, the Coach Training Academy has the tools you need to launch, grow, and sustain a thriving business.
