Here are my top 10 reasons to become a Beachbody coach! First off, let me say that there are many benefits to becoming a Beachbody coach but these are 10 of my favorite reasons.

1. You get to pay it forward.

There is no limit to the number of people you can help get healthy and fit.  Everyone knows someone who could use better health. (Think about it.) As a matter of fact you owe it to someone to help them change their fitness. If I can do it, you can do it.

2. You get to make some extra money.

That’s right, every time you recommend one of Beachbody’s products you receive a 25% commission for you effort. (Not too shabby.) Best part is, these products sell themselves.  We are not selling we are just recommending.  Believe me when I tell you, most people have heard of the P90X exercise program   and many of our work outs because the infomercials do most of the work for us.

3. You will save 25% on all of your purchases.

Shakeology, Insanity: The Asylum, P90X2, you name it. You will save 25% on the whole Beachbody products line

4. Accountability

Believe it or not, being a coach makes me want to work out even more. I feel like it is part of my job now.  If I am going to talk the talk then I have to walk the walk. You will also have tons of support for your Beachbody business.

5. You can qualify for FREE customers.

You read it right, FREE customers. You have to qualify but its not that hard. (Give me a call and I can give you the details.) Over time these customers start to add up. And guess what, when a new program like P90X2 is released you will already have built in sales.

6. You are in business for yourself but not by yourself.

This is one of the best parts of this business.  We are all shooting for the same thing and there will always be somebody to help if you need it.

7. Everybody has heard of our products.

With over $100 million spent in infomercial advertising and around $500 million in sales you can bet that a lot of people have heard of Beachbody products. (You can’t say that about other companies products.) It is definitely a lot easier to recommend a work out when someone seen an infomercial for it 2 days ago.

8. No experience needed.

You don’t have to be a nutritionist or a trainer but you do have to want to share fitness with others.  If you like helping others then becoming a Beachbody coach is for you.

9. Tax benefits.

When you become a Beachbody coach you are starting your own business. With that will come certain tax advantages and write offs. (Talk to your CPA for more details.)

10. Beachbody has an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau

This speaks for itself but but feel free to check out my post Beachbody gets an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau.

Beachbody gets an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau. This is awesome and it is awesome to represent a company that gets these kind of ratings.  Remember when you were in school and you received an A+?  Well, it’s the same kind of thing. It doesn’t get any better than an A+, from best selling work outs like P90X, TurboFire and Insanity to our awesome premier meal replacement drink called Shakeology, everything that Beachbody does deserves an A+. Yes, I personally give Beachbody and their products an A+ as well. (Yes, I use them and drink Shakeology.)

The best part about Beachbody is that they are always striving to get better and better. Beachbody is a on a mission to end the trend of obesity and with our Beachbody coach program we are going to get there one person at a time. Yes, it is working and Beachbody coaches and customers are being recognized by Capitol Hill with the Presidential Active Lifestyle Award.

So now it is time for you to do your part.  You already know that Beachbody is an A+ company so now choose a Beachbody work out and if really want to make a difference then choose to become a coach and help others on their fitness journey as well.

Capitol Hill is taking notice that Beachbody coaches and Beachbody fitness programs are making a difference.  They have included us Beachbody coaches and new customers in the Million Pala Challenge. PALA stands for the Presidential Active Lifestyle Award. For those who commit to fitness for 5 days a week, 30 minutes a day for 6 weeks will qualify for recognition. (60 minutes for kids.)  You do jot need to purchase a Beachbody program to participate but if you do between July 15th and August 17th 2011 you will automatically be recognized and do not need to complete the registration form at http://www.millionpalachallenge.org/, Beachbody will be taking care of that for you.

How it works:

Between July 15th and August 17th, the Presidential Council will recognize:

• All customers who buy a Beachbody fitness program or order Shakeology
• All current Coaches
• All new Coach signups

Each of these Coaches and customers will receive a Presidential Active Lifestyle Award, issued by the Presidential Council. Get ready to display your badge proudly.

This means that is you decide today to commit to a Beachbody work out during the time period listed above you will qualify to get your Presidential Active Lifestyle Award. Most Beachbody work outs are 90 days, so this is why you will qualify for the award.

So make the decision today to get fit.  Commit to a work out program. You will succeed.

How to make money with P90X? You have heard of  the P90X exercise program and you probably know the name Tony Horton but now you have questions on how to make money with P90X. If you have done P90X then I am sure you have seen some pretty good results, probably even had people asking you what you are doing.  Maybe you have recommended P90X to someone at work or a friend kind of like you would a good restaurant or a good movie you have recently seen. Have you been doing this?  Then you have what it takes to be a Beachbody coach and make a some extra money from your referrals and helping others get fit.  Don’t let the work “coach” scare you.  We are just regular people who want to help others.  I am not a personal trainer or a nutritionist and you don’t need to be to do this business.

Here’s how easy this business is….. since you are already talking about P90X all you have to do is take one extra step, send then to your website.  So when someone asks you about P90X you send them to your Beachbody site and then they can purchase their own P90X or any Beachbody product.  It’s that simple and you make 25% per sale.  You also will save 25% on all of your own purchases including P90X results and recovery drink, Shakeology, P90X protein bars and all of the Beachbody work outs and supplements. Here is the great part, some of these people are going to want to make some extra money too.  When they do, since they are part of your team, you can make some additional income on all of the volume that your team generates. (Those could be some big numbers.)

So what do do now?  Watch this video below and let me know if you have any questions.

This is a great opportunity to get fit both physically and financially so feel free to give me a ring if you have any questions on how to make money with P90X and all of the Beachbody products.

What does a Beachbody coach do? I often get this question a lot from people who think they do not have the qualifications to do this business.  What I want to do today is clarify a couple of things so you know exactly what we do as a Beachbody coach.

First off let me start by saying the you do not need to be a personal trainer or a nutritionist, that is the job of the Beachbody work outs. We do have trainers, nutritionists, doctors, lawyers and people from all walks of life that do this business but the bottom line is that most coaches are just average people who loved the work outs and want to share them with others.  One thing I know for sure is that anyone can share.  You do it all the time when you suggest a movie or a restaurant to your friends or family.  This is exactly what we do as Beachbody coaches.  We recommend something that we know works and produces results. Most people who have done a Beachbody work out are already talking about it so becoming a Beachbody coach is just a natural progression.

To keep it simple, we stay in great shape with a Beachbody work out, we buy our supplements from our own store (saving 25%) and we share this with others.  That’s it in a nut shell.  Do you know anyone who want to lose some weight?  Do you know anyone that could use some extra money?  Do you know anyone who hates their current job? Do you know anyone who wants to get in better shape?  I am pretty sure you said yes to all of those questions.  This just goes to show you that people need what we have and if you can fulfill a need then you are on the right track.

When you become a Beachbody coach you are given the tools to help you succeed. The plan is laid out in front of you and all you have to do is follow it.  By no means do I want to give the impression that this business is easy.  Just as with any business it takes time and effort.  If you can give me those 2 things they you will have success.  There are varying degrees of success and that will depend on you.  Some people just want to make their car payment and some people want to make a million dollars a year.  As a Beachbody coach you can attain any level of success you want because it is up to you.

Please feel free to ask me any questions you might have.

Ready to become a coach?

Jeff Ochoa visits Beachbody Headquarters.  Sounds kind of funny when you are writing about yourself.  Almost sounds like I am important or something. Anyways, myself and some other fantastic individuals were invited out to Beachbody corporate for some social media training and while I was there I wanted to see all of the “behind the scenes” action that goes on at the Corporate offices of Beachbody. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect but needless to say I was pleasantly surprised to see a “Google type” work atmosphere filled with highly energetic, friendly and motivated people.  We were give an awesome tour by Bryan Carpender, if you are a coach, and going to take the tour of the corporate offices, be sure to ask for Bryan.  He will take awesome care of you.

As you can see in my picture this is the first thing you see when you step off of the elevators.  Guess I have the Beachbody world in mine hands.  How ironic, Beachbody Business, Beachbody fitness and it’s all in my hands.  The second thing that quickly caught my attention was above the seating area right off of the elevators there was this sort of carved out circle hanging above you and inscribed in the side of the circle were the words, “Help people achieve their goals and enjoy a healthy, fulfilling life.” This struck a chord with me.  I thought to myself, “what an awesome motto.” The perfect answer for people when they say, “Hey there Jeff Ochoa, what do you do?”

As the tour continued we met some very friendly Beachbody executives and employees.  Look out the window of one of those executive offices and you see a huge Beachbody logo along with a volley ball court.  I asked Bryan if it gets used and he said “Sure does”.  Continuing the tour Bryan showed us the work out room where he said that all employees can use it whenever they choose.  Yes, it was equipped with a huge pull up bar.  Looked like you could fit 15 people at a time on that bar.  Then he showed us the latest office challenge.  Most of the employee’s will be doing RevAbs for the next 90 days to get ready for summer. There’s always some kind of fitness challenge going on over there. Great way to keep the employees motivated and moving.

Then we move on and walked past a bunch of conference rooms all named after 80′s iconic movies such as the Spicoli room and the Lebowski room.  I did take pictures of the names of these rooms and all around the office so feel free to view the pictures at Beachbody Headquarters Pictures. Also, be sure to check out the picture I took of the definition of “Dude”.  Are you a dude?

As we continued the tour I was really caught off guard with an awesome surprise. Tony Horton, the man himself, just so happened to be visiting that day as well.  Yes, he is as energetic in person as he is on camera.  Tony was talking about how he just left the warehouse and how there were a bunch of pallets each stacked with 100′s of P90X’s on them just waiting to be shipped.  He was happy, not for the sales, but for how many lives that this shipment was going to impact.

All and all, this little tour just reaffirmed what I already knew.  I have chosen an awesome company to be a part of.  They walk the walk and talk the talk.  They truly are on a mission to help as many people as possible. Will you join me?

Any questions just let me know.

Jeff Ochoa and Tony Horton
