Founded in 1998 by Carl Daikeler and Jon Congon in California.

A USA based weight loss products and fitness videos seller.

They utilise a direct sales team called Team Beach Body, BODi, who are independent distributors and call themselves Coaches (despite having no qualifications in health, nutrition or fitness).

To become a Coach/Partner is very simple a few details about yourself and some purchases of starter deals or registration fee and your all set, they do as if you have been referred by someone but never fear if you have not your hard work won’t be for nought they can assign you to someone so that they can become your upline and make some money off of you.

To start they charge you a onetime registration fee of $39.95 which can be waived if you purchase a Total-Solution pack (more on that later)

And every 30 days there is a reoccurring monthly fee of $15.95. This can be cancelled at any time.

If you just pay the one-time fee and ignore the next few pages of products shoved into your face then you will receive a welcome email containing a welcome business information book, 30-day access to online partner office and key marketing and support tool to help you start your business.

If you choose to purchase the Total-Solution pack for $219 valued at $360.80

You will then get 1 year subscription to BODi, 20-day supply of shakeology, 20-day supply of Energise, Tools and recipes regarding healthy eating and exercise and finally free access to the newest super block.

Commission plan

The best way to grow is to invite new customers and coaches to the Beach Body challenge group by getting them to purchase the Challenger Pack – from $160 upwards.

Earn up to 36% for every pack sold and also every non-challenger product, you’ll earn 25% or 15% if they are a Beach Body on demand sub.

Team cycle bonus (this is so convoluted and just pointless I just can’t get the point of having the legs and a strong/weak on etc)

Earn from the sales of your entire downline It cycles whenever you have 300 Balanced volume points

Earn between $14-$18 each cycle dependant on your rank Emerald earns $14 each cycle up to $250 per week

Ruby earns $16 up to $1000 per week

Diamond earns $18 from up to $2000 to $12000 per week.

It is important to remember, as a newer coach, that to earn these you must have advanced to emerald which requires you to have scammed I mean sponsored two other active coaches 1 for each leg for them to classify to count as an active coach they need to meet the PV requirement which can be through retail sales or, of course, personal sales.

“As a coach that TV is just sitting there, and you are just flushing that money down the toilet so why not recruit and rank up so you can take a chunk of this too”.

“It’s important to remember your team has real value to you don’t waste it”.

Common arguments to make people feel bad for wasting that money and pushing them to recruit, recruit, recruit to get that money.

Going off the Income disclosure statement I had from 2020 (I will update this with a more up to date disclosure asap)

Emerald rank – Average - $3,142

Ruby rank – Average - $12,186

Diamond rank – Average - $16,991

Star diamond – Average - $116,539

The diamond ranks have 15 different ranks within it that are not included in t hat

43% of coaches receive some form of bonus or commission cheque.

“Large number of the coaches used in this disclosure form choose not to build a business”

Of course, they have to put that in there to try to explain why so many people make so little.

This disclosure for does not consider any expenses that the coaches have such as packs and products they have to buy to be able to sell to other people and all the personal sales they make just to reach or remain at their current rank. It also does not show all the hours they spent actually working I would love to see a comparison of the hours they spend vs how much they earn.

This does not even begin to go over they ‘Trips’ they win and supposed training they receive to help them reach their business goals. Those are something I will be going into in other post as this one is already getting rather long.
