Day 3 Smart Start -- GOALS & your WHY!

DAY 3 - ESTABLISHING GOALS!


It is 100% accurate that our fuel to this journey is our WHY, our REASON to be here in the first place. 
Our goals are only cool because reaching them would open up an opportunity, ease a situation, provide security, enhance our lives and/or bridge us to our dreams! If you are building for any other reason, it won't be enough!
.
In order to reach a goal, you HAVE to SET it. 
Please believe that you are MUCH more likely to hit a target that you define and WRITE DOWN!
Otherwise, you are throwing blanks. Be concise about your goals. Be clear with your vision, and create laser focus.
.
If you haven't given your dreams and goals much thought, I encourage you to do so NOW!!! 
Generally, we are not asked to DREAM a BIG dream. It wasn't until I started this business model that I was ever asked IN MY LIFE, what my dreams were. And I didn't have a clue.
.
Today, I want you to DREAM a lil. Actually...a LOT. And don't limit your goals and dreams to what you THINK you can do. Set them based on what YOU WANT!!!
.
If you are married or in a relationship, sit with your partner. Talk about what you want to do together. Will you travel the world?? Fund a charity? Take care of your parents???
.
Do not settle for less than you are capable of. And I'll tell you know... you are capable of SO MUCH MORE THAN YOU KNOW!!!!
.
***Today, make a list of at least TEN crazy COOL goals and your WHY!!! *****
.
Your WHY will likely grow and change as you do!!
.
But when you first decided to do this, WHY did you take the leap of faith? 
Who are what were you thinking of? 
What situation did you want to change? 
What injustice in your life were you tired of?
What about it gave you hope?
.
What is your REASON to going after your goals with no abandon?? What is the ultimate payout??
.
Is it family? Significance? Freedom? To finally do something you can be PROUD OF?? To leave a legacy?
.
GET EMOTIONAL. DIG DEEP!!!
.
Please post YOUR WHY and TWO goals that you absolutely have to see happen in your life in our Fb Group!

Day 4 Smart Start - Crafting your Challenge Group Post!

Day 4:
CHALLENGE GROUPS and craft YOUR Post!



Challenge Groups (if you run them effectively) have changed the game in coaching!! 
They will be the foundation for your business as a coach because it is WHAT sets us apart from the rest! It's where you actually HELP people GET RESULTS and FIND COACHES to join your team!!

They are the easiest way to show others what BEACHBODY is ALL ABOUT and attract the right people into becoming coaches and joining your team and they also help people have better results and experiences using Beachbody’s programs

Check out Scottie Hobbs Video on Challenge Group Post!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Okl5a638WDQ&feature=youtu.be
.
So today is all about CRAFTING your Challenge Group Post!
You will CREATE it today, and post in the group for me to review (& then you will POST tomorrow!) 
 And don’t worry if you are not quite ready to run your own as you will be inviting them to join you into a group I will be running!  
.
What makes a great CG post? Here are a few KEY ingredients:
.
1) It should reflect your personality, style, & goals- I write mine EXACTLY how I talk in “real life”
.
2) Speak from the heart- the same STRUGGLES you have...are exactly what people RELATE to!
.
3) Appeal to the person you’re trying to attract or would love to help! (My customer wants to work on her "problem areas- tummy, thighs, and butt. It’s very doubtful a man trying to put on muscle will respond to that :P)
.
4) It should be Visually Appealing!! USE A PICTURE OF YOU!!!! People are joining YOU!! 
Apps like Photofy or PicMonkey.com (website) are your friends! 
**CAUTION: Do not get salesy here! The best CG posts feature YOU- not some Turbo Fire marketing that Beachbody put together or stock images....BORING! Have FUN WITH IT!!!!
.
HERE IS A TUTORIAL VID ON PICMONKEY: http://youtu.be/KSY2uiV3Pjs
.
5) Showcasing your own RESULTS is MOST effective (but if you are just starting your journey, NO WORRIES, you can use others, poll fellow coaches to use theirs! -- just no Stock Beachbody Transformation photos please)
.
6) Sense of URGENCY (Example: only 3 spots available & the group starts June 21st, spots limited!..."1 week left to save your spot")
.
7) Have a Call to Action (If this interests you...LIKE or COMMENT Below, "message me for details!")

Have fun with this- the best thing about this business is you are constantly learning & evolving! Don't worry we aren't going to leave you hanging! It gets easier with time and practice and you get to use your creative side!
.
Here are some EXAMPLE posts to get you started:
.
TAKE ACTION: Craft YOUR challenge group post & POST in our FB Group for review!
.
Can't wait to see them!

Below is a a look back at some of mine from this past year. (Most done via PicMonkey).....Yes, I use a lot of bikini photos, but that's ME...you can do whatever you like!! Be Creative!!

You DON"T Have to get all fancy...a photo of you working out is great too but themes are fun and eye catching also...make it whatever you want!!

PicMonkey can be great....but it can take more time...Don't waste your time...I did this too much in the beginning!!! Your post/pics do NOT have to be this detailed!! 
You can simply use WordSwag or Photofy Apps on your phone and add some simple text to a pic and that's it!!





My First Challenge Post of my Own!


Day 5 Smart Start - How to Respond to Challenge Group Invite/ Objections!

Day 5 of 21!

Alright coaches!!
.
Here we are! Most of you have CRAFTED a GREAT Invitation Post!! We are all inviting our friends & family to join us in the next Challenge Group.
.
Is everyone all set to POST their INVITE!?
.
WAIT…. what do you do after you’ve posted it? What if no one responds? What if 100 people message you? What do you do!?!?!
FIRST….
.
::::: BREATHE ::::::
Some of you will have a great response - to you I say: Take one message - one PERSON - at a time.
.

Some of you will not have much response - 
to you I say: THAT IS OK!!!!  
That has happened to ALL of us many times. You keep posting VALUABLE content along with your invitation post. You message people personally to invite them too!
.
In this video, One of our leaders shares FIVE Tips that you NEED to hear before you start answering people’s questions.
.
.
Next, I posted 2 different examples of conversation types. 1 with a prospective challenger & 1 with a prospective coach.
.
Be sure to READ these & really see what I’ve done. See how I have breadcrumbed the information, asked questions, explained fears based on my personal experience, but I’m not giving TOO MUCH info TOO FAST. 
(I know these may be hard to read...I can send to you, let me know!)





Below is My own personal example and great way to FOLLOW UP after having that initial convo if it went stale!!!

AFTER I find out THEIR goals and they say they're interested in the group....
USE 3rd PARTY TOOLS to explain the group!!
.
We usually ask them their goals, fears, what they've tried before and if they're interested...instead of explaining the group details (and word vomiting lol) We use videos to explain it!
**Our 2 favorites:
1) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZFyU1aqAaU


2) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tY73Z6p3jl8


After this I ask them to let me know what they liked best about this and if it seems like something they'd like to do! Let this video explain the details so you don't have to WORD VOMIT!
----------------------------------
Have a Coach Prospect?????
This is the video we send to our coach prospects, here is the link: http://bit.ly/BasicsofCoaching
.----------------------------------------------

Let's Talk OBJECTIONS!!!!


*OBJECTIONS*, you are GOING to have them! 
We want you to POST THESE OBJECTIONS in our group so we can HELP YOU!!!

If you share those objections with us when they come up, we will help you learn what to say in return!

Your CALL TO ACTION for today is to post in our GROUP the names of THREE people you ENGAGED with or INVITED to a Challenge Group today.
.







Day 6 Smart Start! - What we are as Coaches!!

DAY 6 of 21:


Hello Coaches!!!!! What do you tell people we do??? :)

.
Are you having fun yet???
.
I also truly hope you understand EXACTLY how valuable YOU are!!! I mean, our entire position as Coaches was created to play a very important role in the lives of others. We are here to help people realize what they are truly capable of in their lives.
.
Sounds pretty awesome, right?? Well, IT IS!!!
.
We have a very unique opportunity in Beachbody. Not only do we connect others to the tools to reach their health and fitness goals, but we also connect people to an opportunity that can radically change their life.
To empower others to take control of their health and finances carries a reward that you can hardly understand, until you FEEL it.
.
Just as I talk with confidence about what I have to offer in the way of fitness, nutrition and accountability, I talk with the SAME confidence when approaching others about the coaching opportunity.
.
I truly act as if I am doing THEM a favor. Sound elitist?? 
IT'S NOT!!  
What I mean by that is that I personally, will forever be grateful to MY coach (Lindsay M.) and her husband for offering this TO ME. 
For them to have seen something in ME that they believed in, was a compliment in itself and a favor to my entire family. Treat it that way! THIS IS A GIFT...Sometimes we forget how happy Coaching makes us when we're in the GRIND!
.
Understand that you have what it takes to be a beacon of light in the lives of others. 
Understand that you can set and reach really cool goals. Work daily to silence the limiting thoughts and make an effort to amplify the swirling thoughts of 
I CAN DO THIS. I WAS MEANT TO BE GREAT. AND I CAN DO AMAZING THINGS!!!
.
~~YOU ARE!! YOU CAN! BELIEVE IT! ~~~
.
I want you to watch the following video and understand what we are and what we aren't and why you are valuable as a coach.
.
.
Please post in our GROUP one take away from the {{NINE minute}} video!!!
.
***Pro Tip****:: 

Build credibility and gain attention by posting helpful tips, clean recipes, and your challenger's success stories on your FB!!

Give people a reason to come back to your page. If they see you are promoting health and fitness and helping others get results, they are more apt to see the value in you and what you have to offer.

Day 7 Smart Start - How to EARN MONEY!! & Catch up day!

DAY 7: How the heck do I earn money?!?!


Check out Lindsay's Video on the Coach Compensation Plan!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3F49gGw_4dw


Most of your income when you begin WILL be based off RETAIL SALES...but as you grow your TEAM, your Income really starts to take off and this is where the MAGIC Happens!

The first Rank goal is EMERALD!!
This is when you can start EARNING CYCLE BONUSES FROM YOUR TEAM VOLUME!

Check out Lindsay Matway's video on the Benefits of Emerald!

Video on Team Cycle Bonus:

Lastly, for majority of coaches...their first coach is often a SPOUCE or family member to help them go EMERALD!
Check out Lindsay's video on the STRATEGY of SPouce Placement!
This has been a KEY in my own business! It allows me to maximize our income by hitting my own goals, and then selling under my husband to maximize my TEAM VOLUME!
