Top 10 “Coach” Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)

Question	Answer
What is a Coach?	Beachbody refers to their reps as “Coaches”. They call them Coaches because they are more than just “distributors” or “reps”. Yes, they have the ability to sell and suggest fitness products and workouts, but they also have a vested interest to “Coach” the people they are in contact with into a better way of life. Look at it this way…I’ve thought of myself as a Coach for many years while working in the fitness industry or just by working out in the gym and offering advice to my neighbor. Now I can make it official and start earning money to do what I’ve been doing passionately for all those years.
Who can be a Coach?	ANYONE! You do not need to be invited; you can make this decision yourself and sign up today! We strongly encourage those to join in the Coaching business who have a strong desire to reach their deepest goals.

What do I “do” everyday as a Coach?	Depending on where you want to take your business or the direction of your goals, this answer can be different for everyone. But primarily the common answer is to – Share your Story! As a Coach, you have the ability to sell any Beachbody item from their nutritionals all the way to their workout videos. Just start telling your story and letting people know of your new business venture. The word will spread! You may also spend your time getting in touch with your network and circle around you. You will have the greatest gains in your business if you build your down line team of Coaches.

I live in a different country than the USA, can I still sign up?	At this time, only USA, USA Territories and Military locations can sign up as a Coach. Canada and other international locations can possibly sign up and start their Beachbody Coaching business sometime in 2011.
How can I fit this in my daily life? I’m already way too busy!	If you are involved in fitness already, this will be MUCH easier for you! This will be natural and follow what you normally do already! Opportunity always presents itself, now you’ll just have a way of earning commissions on the programs you’ve already been suggesting. The extent to which you develop your “downline” is up to each individual. You can be very aggressive to create a long downline of Coaches and retail sales. As someone involved in fitness, you’ll find yourself having the same conversations you would naturally when people ask you the many questions they often do about “getting fit” and losing weight.
Can I cancel anytime?	Yes. You can cancel in your first 30 days, and be completely refunded the first months fees. Thereafter, you can cancel at anytime and only be out, the amount of time you were in the business. However, if you decide you want to rejoin, you will lose your seniority position and level you were once in the company as well as have to wait a 6 month period from cancellation before you can re-join.
