As a Beachbody Coach, reaching Emerald status is the first step in building your business. You want to get to Emerald as fast as possible so you can qualify for Beachbody’s customer lead generation program, but don’t worry or get discouraged if you’re not able to get to Emerald right away. It took me a little over six months to finally get to Emerald, but I could of been there much sooner had I known what I am about to explain to you.

All you need to do to reach Emerald status is sign up 2 other “active” Coaches. Being “active” just means that they have earned 50 personal volume points for the month. It is likely that you will sponsor people that never end up buying or selling anything, meaning they are “unactive”. You don’t want to waste your trying to sponsor a ton of people that end up never doing anything, you just need to find a few that are motivated, understand the business, and are already using a Beachbody product.

A good strategy for finding 2 active Beachbody Coaches is to first acquire 2 Shakelogy customers. Since you’re drinking Shakeology yourself (or at least you should be), tell others about it and spread the word. All you need to do is find 2 Shakeology customers, then show them how it is actually cheaper to purchase Shakeology as Beachbody Coach. They will have to pay $39.95 start up fee to become a Coach, but with the 25% discount they get they will save money in the long run. Now, with 2 personally sponsored Coaches, you’re Emerald and able to receive free customer leads from Beachbody. You will receive a commission anytime one of these leads buys something from teambeachbody.com and these are also leads that you can contact and and inform about Shakeology and other Beachbody products. The leads are also great prospects to convert into new Beachbody Coaches, they are already familar with Beachbody and have purchased a workout.

Signing up a spouse, sibling, or good friend is also a great way to reach Emerald status as soon as possible. If they don’t want Shakeology, you can purchase the sample packs in their account and give them away as a free sample to potential new customers. While this may seem expensive, if you do the math, you only need to generate 3 new customers each month from your free sample giveaways to break even for the month, and if those customers order on home direct (hd) you will be in profit your second month. From a business perspective, Shakeology should be your top product to push. While it is great to be able to sell Beachbody’s workouts, it is still only a one time sale and a one time commission. A P90x sale will earn a $30 commission for a Beachbody Coach, but a Shakeology sale on home direct (ordering on home direct saves the customer $10/mth on shipping) will earn earn a $30 commission every month, or $360 a year, just from one customer. So you can see how making a Shakeology sale can be much more valuable than selling on of the workout programs.

Signing up friends and family members is a great way to get started as a Beachbody Coach. It will help you reach Emerald status fast and they will also be in a great position in your organization so when you sponsor new Coaches in the future, they also fall under those who are close to you, benefiting them as well.

A Great Tool To Help Grow Your Beachbody Business

One of the great things about Shakeology is that is comes with an empty bag, 30 day money back guarantee. This means you can try out Shakeology, and if after 30 day you are not happy for any reason, you can return the empty bag and get a full refund. Beachbody has created an amazing product and are confident that you will have great results with it. This is why they are offering this refund.

Shakeology is not the only Beachbody product that comes with a 30 day money back guarantee. In fact, they all do, P90x even comes with a 90 day money back guarantee. If after 90 days of P90x you are not satisified with your results, you can send it back for a full refund. Now I know there is someone out there reading this who just got a bright idea. You are saying to yourself, “I’ll order P90x, do it for 90 days, then just send it back”, right? You would think that people would try and pull this scam, but the truth is they don’t, and Beachbody does not need to worry about this because after 90 days of P90x, you’ll be in love with it and it will become part of your everyday workout routine. You won’t want to return it.

The bottom line is that Beachbody creates awesome products that produce results. Beachbody know this and that is why they are able to offer a money back guarantee on all of their products. They are not looking to scam anyone out of money, every customer has the option to return their Beachbody products if they are not happy. As a Beachbody Coach, being able to offer a money back guarantee on every product is very helpful in making sales. I’m always sure to let everyone know they have the option of returning any product they purchase. I’m also not looking to scam anyone out of their money, I want all of my customers to be happy with their purchase and get great results from whatever workout program or supplement they use.

While it is not required  to be in great shape or a fitness expert to be a Beachbody Coach,  you should be at least be in the process of improving your current health and fitness level. As a Beachbody Coach you’re expected to be a product of the product. After all, who wants to take fitness advice or an exercise program recommendation from someone who eats like crap and sits on the couch all day? That just wouldn’t make sense.

One easy way a Beachbody Coach can work on improving their health is by drinking Shakeology. If you are a Beachbody Coach, it is hard to ask someone else to try out the shake if you are not drinking it yourself, potential customers will want to hear your personal experience with it and the results you achieved with replacing one meal a day with Shakeology.

If you’re a Beachbody Coach, drinking Shakeology is a must. I wouldn’t be asking others to drink it if I didn’t drink it myself, I drink it on a daily basis, it tastes great, is good for me, and keeps me feeling full all morning long. Being a Beachbody Coach is a real business and should be treated as such and not just as a hobby. To be a Coach and not be drinking Shakeology is like owning your own restaurant and not eating there, it just doesn’t make sense. So if you’re not convinced on the health benefits of Shakeology, or think it is too expensive, do a little research, it will definitely change your mind and also help build your Beachbody business.

Doctors are raving about Shakeology! Shakeology is the real deal and even doctors are jumping on board. This is what Dr. Stephen Pratt, Los Angeles, had to say about Shakeology.

Dr. Stephen Pratt

“My perspective used to be if you eat healthy and take care of yourself, you’ll be fine. After 30 years of medical practice I’ve found that’s really not true because modern society had changed and the food that we eat is no longer healthy food. Shakeology is a tool, a really sophisticated tool. Nutritionally, it’s superior to anything I’ve seen out on the market right now.”

Try Shakeology: Change Your Health In 30 Days Or You Don’t Pay

Caterina and her bag of Shakeology

Caterina has some great thing to say about Shakeology, she’s traded her coffee and Red Bulls for Shakeology and is shocked at how energized she feels.

This is what Caterina had to say about Shakeology:

“I feel so energized!!!! (Yes, those exclamation points are real energy! Drinking Shakeology has given me so much
energy, which I used to get from drinking coffee or Red Bulls—not anymore! Throw those nasty things in the trash where they belong and pass me my shaker cup!

One sign that shocked me was how ridiculously fast and strong my nails have grown. I used to wear acrylic nails for years, which forced them to be weak and yellow. They would never grow, and I had a terrible habit of biting my nails and the skin around them. Well, now I get asked, “Are those your real nails?” and I can say yes! I’ve even stopped the habit of biting! So Shakeology can help break bad habits and treat your body well.”

Blue Green Algae Is In Shakeology

One of the ingredients in Shakeology is blue green algae. This power packed nutrient can help to increase energy, improve memory, increase mental clarity, improve digestion, control cravings, heighten immune function, help relieve fatigue, PMS, anxiety and depression. It’s even recently been called a cure for ADD!

So what is blue green algae?

Blue-green algae, also known as Spirulina, grows in water as a form of bacteria.

History of blue green algae.

Supplements hit the market in 1979, claiming to help with weight loss and low energy.

Benefits

Worldwide research claims Spirulina may boost immunity, prevent cancer, heart disease, aid weight loss, improve memory, detox the body and fight malnutrition.

More On Blue Green Algae

Today’s scientists are only beginning to grasp the incredible nutritional value of blue-green algae and spirulina, but these superfoods have a reputation that reaches far back into history. A form of blue-green algae was consumed regularly hundreds of years ago by Aztecs, while spirulina was a favorite among native peoples in the Sahara desert region of Africa. Today blue-green algae and spirulina are some of the top superfoods, providing extraordinary nutrition in a time when most food sources are of poor nutritional quality.

Blue-green algae and spirulina, which is a specific form of blue-green algae, are found in nature growing in the still, alkaline waters of lakes and ponds. They are natural foods that have existed since life began. Their nutritional content is broad and highly concentrated:

- Blue-green algae and spirulina are rich in vitamins A, C, E and the B-complex vitamins, including vitamins B12 and B6. Since these vitamins are packaged in their natural form, they are in a highly usable state that makes them far superior to modern vitamin supplements. (It should be noted that some experts don’t consider the vitamin B12 in spirulina to be bioavailable, while others disagree.)

- These foods are rich in natural minerals like calcium, magnesium and iron. They are also an excellent source of trace minerals that are commonly lacking in today’s diet.

- Many of these vitamins and minerals exhibit antioxidant properties which aid in the elimination of toxins and free-radicals, helping the body fight disease and stay healthy. These elements also fight cancer – in fact, preliminary studies point to spirulina as a natural anti-cancer agent.

- Spirulina and blue-green algae are highly effective for heavy metal detox, as multiple studies have shown.

- Phycocyanin gives spirulina its unique blue-green color and perhaps its anti-cancer properties. This specialized blue pigment is only found in blue-green algae.

- Blue-green algae and spirulina are rich in protein, including the essential amino acids. By comparison, spirulina produces twenty times more protein per acre versus soybeans. Considering the rapidly declining reputation of soy, spirulina could be considered a worthy replacement.

- Spirulina is rich in gamma linolenic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid which aids in the health of the joints and heart. It is also helpful for specific issues like weight loss and premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

- Blue-green algae can help balance the flora in the gut, which aids digestion and fights candida overgrowth.

- Spirulina is known for its ability to temper the appetite and stabilize blood sugar levels. It may also help with food cravings.

- Studies have exhibited spirulina’s amazing ability to reduce inflammation in the body. This can be important in preventing and treating a variety of conditions.

In spite of their nutritional punch, blue-green algae and spirulina do not pack a lot of calories. This makes it effortless to incorporate these superfoods into your diet regardless of your nutritional needs and preferences. It is important to find a quality source of blue-green algae or spirulina. Poor quality supplements may contain heavy metal contaminants and other toxins. Be sure to examine the source of your blue-green algae and spirulina carefully before buying.

$3.96...A Coffee And A Water Costs More Than Shakeology

I didn’t have time to drink my Shakeology this morning, I had some things to do early and was running a little late. I ate a bowl of cereal, and then stopped at 7 Eleven and picked up a cup of coffee and a bottle of water. The 2 items totaled $3.96! Normally I could skip the bowl of cereal and coffee and just have my Shakeology, and fill up a water jug at home.

At times I’ll think Shakeology is kind of expensive, but when I see how easy it is to spend $4.00, which is more expensive than a daily serving of Shakeology, it changes my opinion on the price of Shakeology. With my Beachbody Coach’s 25% discount, I figure the total cost of 1 serving of Shakeology for me is $3.27, which is pretty good considering all the health benefits I am getting from it. Click here to see the pricing breakdown of the Beachbody Coach’s discount.

So while Shakeology may seem expensive, think about that bagel you buy every morning, or the $2.75 fancy latte you buy at Starbucks. $3.27 is cheaper than any breakfast value meal at McDonalds, so you’re not only saving money, but you’ll also feel more energized. In my opinion, Shakeology is a bargain.

"Shakeology has really changed my life in more ways than one"

Patricia, 48, from Staples Minnesota has been seeing great results from drinking Shakeology once a day, this is what Patricia had to say about Shakeology.

“Shakeology has really changed my life in more ways than one. I didn’t have a lot of weight to lose—just about 10 pounds. I had been exercising on a regular basis but was still having trouble losing those last few pounds. So I started to drink a glass of Shakeology once a day. I noticed within the first week that my energy level had soared! I couldn’t believe how much better I felt. I was also sleeping better at night and didn’t need that second cup of coffee later in the morning to get me through the day. Getting up at 4:30 every morning to work out was easier too. I attribute that to getting a better night’s sleep, as this has been a chronic problem with me for a long time.

Since having my third child in my 30s, I was never able to really lose the stomach. I worked out consistently but still struggled with losing the extra weight I had put on since my last pregnancy 15 years ago. I thought because of my age (I am now 48) that this is the way it was going to be for good. By doing my workouts with Beachbody and drinking Shakeology, I can finally see the abs I’ve worked so hard for! I don’t have the terrible bloating I used to have, either!

Another thing I have had a problem with is my cholesterol levels being higher than they should be. I was not way overweight, but blood tests don’t lie, and I was 235 on my cholesterol levels. Since drinking Shakeology I am now at 197. Quite a significant difference!

I’m a very busy person who has a family and holds down a full-time job, while being the support system for my customers. I know from day to day, hard as I try, I don’t meet the nutritional requirements that my body needs. Shakeology ensures that I get what I need. My body is now proof of it!

I want to thank you, Beachbody, for coming up with something that’s helped me in reaching my health and fitness goals!”

Awesome work Patricia, it is great to see that you’ve had such great results with Shakeology, and at 48, you look great! Keep up the great work and keep pushing play!
