You need three things to get started:
Willingness to invest in a health and fitness journey and share that journey with others
Willingness to learn new skills and be open to enjoying the process instead of concentrating only on results
A strong WHY that reminds you of your purpose in starting this journey
Starting a business from scratch is often not something most coaches expected themselves to be doing. Most coaches didn't go to business school, didn't learn how to convert leads into paying customers, and didn't learn how to train other coaches by being a leader themselves.
Most of us (myself included), start with ZERO experience in coaching and ZERO experience in business. 90% of us are employees with a regular 9-5 job. Yet, we're open to learning new skills and letting go of our limiting beliefs in order to make this coach thing work. In order to have MORE freedom in our lives than we do right now.
So what exactly DO YOU NEED to get started?
The willingness to spend $160-$200 on your OWN health & wellness.
You receive: A YEAR subscription to Beachbody On Demand (700+ workouts), a month supply of our all natural superfood shake, a shaker cup, & the portion control colored containers (+ any equipment if you decide to upgrade to a more inclusive bundle).
Wait, isn't that EXACTLY what I'd buy if I was a customer? YEP! Plus you get the option to earn money FOR FREE (when ordering a challenge pack, the coach registration fee of $40 is waived!).
So, you're telling me, that if I want to start a business, all I need is the same thing I would get as a customer? YEP! No samples of product that I have to buy in advance and fork over a ton of money for & then sell? Nope! And I can do this all from my smart phone or laptop with wifi? YEP!
That's awesome! I know right?
In order to be successful though you need a progress oriented mindset. How do you find yourself one of those? We start by telling ourselves, we'll "be here in a year," no matter what. Because our health is worth it, because this community is worth it, because our dreams are worth it.
Then we invest in our own health & fitness by keeping our subscription to beachbody on demand and following a workout program until it's complete, sharing our journey along the way. We drink our pre/post workout drinks & superfood shakes because nutrition is 80% of our results. We learn how to meal prep/plan day by day, without guilt or shame or frustration - concentrating on the progress instead of the failures. We talk with people who express interest and even those who are too scared to message us themselves, simply asking them if they'd be interested in joining us. If not, we ask that they pass our name along to others who are looking for a change.
It might sound like a lot, but we aren't in this biz alone - we have the opportunity to plug into online groups for support & community (fitness & business), plug into team calls one night a week for 45 minutes (they're recorded), join push groups when we're ready to up our game, go to live events + learn from top coaches in the network, and work 1:1 with corporate sponsors.
Some coaches even see raises in their day job, simply from the new skill sets they're learning and confidence they're building (income disclaimer).
There is ZERO risk in getting started - that same money back guarantee you get from purchasing the products, is the SAME money back guarantee you'll get as a coach. Realize that coaching isn't your jam? You can easily transition back to being a customer without any penalty or maybe you decide you'd rather just have a 25% discount on the product without making extra income? It's easy to switch between styles of coaches.
