Manic Monday and Premier Tuesday

Now that we've "pimped out" the coach's online office with better tools to communicate with customers and downline coaches, I wanted to ask every coach to focus on generating WOWY workouts and coach sign-ups Monday August 4th and Tuesday the 5th.

MONDAY Aug 4th:
I have cleared my schedule for rallying the community and helping coaches!

1. I'll start the day with an "all-call" WOWY workout at 9AM ET/6AM PT. If you can be there, let's sweat! And invite everyone you can because the WOWY prize for Monday the 4th will be $1,000. So it's even more worthwhile to workout and get people signed-up to workout on the 4th!

2. The rest of the day Monday I will be at my desk jumping on calls with ANY coach who wants a "CEO-assist" to describe the Beachbody Coach opportunity. You can make an appointment for a 5-10 minute call between 11AM ET/8AM PT and 10PM ET/7PM PT by going to this sign-up tool and giving me a couple time options. Or if you don't know when you will have a prospect, you can just do your best to talk it up as often as possible Monday, and when you find someone with the right kind of desire and intent who recognizes the power of this opportunity, take the chance that the phone will be open and call me at 1(800) 806-0991 (The line will be live on Monday only). Kevin Sherman will be in stand-by to pick up any over-flow.

TUESDAY
1. We'll do another "all-call" WOWY workout Tuesday August, 5th at 9AM ET/6AM PT

2. Then Tuesday night we hope every coach and their prospects will log into our brand new opportunity webinar which will help you and your customers find the desire to succeed. That will happen at the normal 9PM ET/6PM PT and run about 20 minutes. You can start inviting prospects to the webinar so we have a packed house.

Let's Fire Up The Back-Office!
What I hope will happen right now is that you will use the coach online office email tools to communicate with your customers and coaches. Tell them about the two WOWY events and to look into your back office to see which of your customers might be inclined to step up and become a coach if we got on the phone with them together on Monday or to tune into the opportunity webinar premier on Tuesday.


Let's heat up your desire to bring in the next wave of people who will help us carry this message of health and prosperity out there. People are hurting physically and financially. They are out of shape, and have forgotten what it feels like to feel good. For anyone who wants control of their health and earning potential, it's time to take action with a system that's proven.

I look forward to an exciting couple of days of productivity with your help and courage to get the word out!

What Do You Want?

Anyone who has read Napoleon Hill's legendary book "Think And Grow Rich" or seen "The Secret" knows their underlying theme to getting what you want:

Focus your thought and action on a specific burning desire.

Mine is to build the Beachbody network to one million coaches and to help 100 million customers make health and fitness a priority in the next five years. I want to meet coaches who are financially independent wherever I go. I want to see a library of Beachbody training DVD's in homes all over the world. I want to hear people sharing tips on favorite workouts and see them making healthy food choices by habit and preference. 1 million coaches, 100 million customers.

What do YOU want? You want to be debt free? You want to quit your job? You want to look great in a swimsuit? What is your specific burning desire? What achievement could drive you to work harder, to turn off the TV, to wake up earlier, to eat better?

As we create new Beachbody training programs, coaching manuals, and as we develop marketing plans for the network and new products, the theme of "know why are you doing this" continues to be the primary theme: The people who are successful with the coaching business and/or a physical transformation are the ones who know what they want... they know their "why".

When discussing the financial potential of being a Beachbody coach and the weight loss potential of our programs, we can't make grand promises about potential outcome without stating the reality that "results vary" and that success follows consistent effort. The coaches who have bought big new houses and new cars or who have erased their personal debt are the ones who went at it with a specific focus on why it was worth it. The people who have gotten the most amazing results with P90X, Hip Hop Abs, Turbo Jam and Slim in 6 are the ones who knew their reason to stick with it, even when it was hard.

Here we are in the midst of a recession, and coaches are enjoying financial freedom for the first time in their lives. Despite a trend of obesity, our customers are getting into the best shape of their lives. Those who succeeded knew they wanted something specific, and went for it. Anyone who failed, failed because they had no reason NOT to quit. They weren't "bad" and they weren't weak, they simply forgot why they started in the first place, so they didn't lose anything by quitting.

You can have everything you want. Let me say that again for emphasis: YOU, can have everything that you want, if you take a moment and think of what it is, and document it. In the process of getting it, I promise you there will be challenges that confront your resolve. If you want something bad enough, nothing will get in your way, not even your prior habits or history.

Many people I talk to want to feel confident in their physical appearance. They want to be healthy, they want happy relationships, and they want complete financial freedom. It is expressed in different ways, but it usually comes down to those desires. When I hear people describe their wants, I can usually tell who is going to overcome their own fears and excuses to succeed.

We happen to be working in an area that is good for people in every way. The prices are reasonable. The benefits are completely healthy. The potential of higher self esteem, stronger health, compassionate community, and financial freedom is unrivaled. It has a price.

That price is a single-minded purpose and focused intent. As Michael Neimand said in a meeting the other day, "Nobody stumbles into success." I will have my success of one million coaches and 100 million customers. What's so exciting is, I will achieve mine by helping you achieve yours. You achieve yours by helping people you know achieve theirs.

But you need to take this first step; Find out what you want.

Answer that, and let's get started.

The NEXT One-on-One?

Yesterday the world joined hands and globally celebrated the fiftieth birthday of uber-trainer to the stars, Mr. Tony Horton. And yet he is the one who gave us a gift:

The release of "One on One workouts" with Tony Horton.

If you want to see Tony at his best, most intense, and least scripted, you've got to subscribe to the One-on-One workouts.

What happens is, every so often Tony calls up his buddy Mason Bendewald (director of P90X, etc.) and says "Mace, I just got a bunch of new rock and roll from Jason*, and I came up with a killer routine. Get your butt over here and let's shoot it."

Mason walks in, rolls camera, and Tony goes into "Bring It" mode, one-on-one style. It's intense, with a new one released each month.

If you're a member of TeamBeachbody.com, subscribe online asap so you make sure to get the very first workout, Plyo Legs. (non-members can purchase here... but why wouldn't you want to be a member of the coolest fitness community on the planet?)

And for all 5 people who read this blog, here is the first ever sneak peak at the next routine just created to ship for month two (August). They're all going to be classics!



Who says you can't push the boundaries? Honestly... this job is getting more fun by the week!
