Fitness actually pays

I love this gig. Love it, love it, love it. (Beachbody coaching, I mean.)

Is it easy? Yes. And no.

Sometimes it’s a straight-out cakewalk … like when Beachbody assigns me customers I’ve never met, and I make a $30 commission off something I didn’t sell.

Sometimes it’s a challenge. I don’t mean that in the sense of “obstacle” or “difficulty.” I mean a challenge as in a dare, a bet that I can do something I’ve been afraid of in the past – like striking up a conversation with someone I’ve just met, or asking someone for a decision on purchasing something they’ve been waffling on.

But it’s the challenges that make me love what this business is doing for me. The financial success has convinced me that I have skills I can pass along to other coaches just starting out. The physical benefits have me feeling better about myself than I ever have in my life. And Beachbody’s emphasis on personal development has changed my strategies for goal-setting and shown me what it takes to achieve my goals. It’s working, people.

Plus … it’s exciting!! Seeing new customers’ names pop up in my office website … talking to someone who didn’t realize they had been assigned a free personal support coach … being thanked by my 75-year-old dad for introducing him to Shakeology … all those things are just as rewarding as seeing my bank account suddenly plump up every Thursday.

A year ago, I was on a perpetual loop of going to work, doing the same thing every week, using my paycheck to pay my bills, and starting over again. Now, I’m on a mission. My goal is to grow my Beachbody business – and I have no cap on how far I’ll take it. My own coach is making a six-figure income doing exactly what I’m doing. She’s touched hundreds if not thousands of lives so far, helping people become healthy and successful.

If this is striking a chord with you, tell me. I’m not one of those oily multi-level marketers who recruits people for my own financial gain – at least not in the short term. I only want to work with people who have the same desires that I do, the same work ethic, the same goals. Put your heart into this business, like I do, and we’ll both benefit.

E-mail me your phone number and the best time to call you, and let’s talk.
