Get Started NOW!!

It's been a very busy week and several weeks to be exact, since attending the Beachbody Game Plan event at Dana Point, CA. I thought I'd share a bit about how the Game Plan has completely changed the way I approach my Team Beachbody business and how easy it has made it.

With the new 3rd party tools, getting the message out has taken the need for me to be the commercial. In other words I no longer need to spew out all this information about Beachbody, P90X, nutrition, etc. I simply hand out DVD and follow up. What the 3rd party tools do is allow me to remain passionate without having to say a lot! Think about it, how many times have you gotten into a conversation with someone about what they do, or what their into and they jump into a 30 min speech about whatever? All the while you're thinking, "Holy crap I just asked this guy what he did for a living! I think I'm going to go stand over there."

Using the 3rd party tools gives me the chance to "briefly" tell my story and then move on. If someone is interested in learning more, I'll hand them the appropriate 3rd party tool, get their contact information if I don't already have it and let them know I'll follow-up with them in the next day or so. How simple is that?

Using these tools I've been able to expose more people to "what I do" more effectively and more efficiently then ever before.

Here are some stats I've had with the 3rd party tools in the last 3 weeks.

42 new face to face exposures
16 product sales
4 new coaches
6 new WOWY customers
13 what I would call serious coach prospects

I also used the 3rd party video links to contact over 100 people who had requested information from me in the past.

Those are significant numbers folks! I didn't have those 3 weeks ago.

I was on a call with a team member this morning and ran some numbers by her;
If you were to spend $100 on third party tools each month and were focused on 100 new exposures each month, that would be 1200 new exposures each year. You're NOT going to go zero for 1200! Statistically not possible. Now consider you simply do what Beachbody talks about, 2 exposures each day, that's around 60 a month and 730 a year. Does anyone believe they'll go 0 for 730? I don't.

Now apply that to everyone in your team, lets say team of 12 including you;
12 x 730 = 8,760 per year. Again, I'll ask the question does anyone think you'll all go zero for 8,760? Not likely.

The point being is that using the 3rd party tools and following the Game Plan is a simple plan that anyone can do and if followed you WILL be successful. If you're not already plugged into the Game Plan, what are you waiting for? Contact your coach and get with it!

Contact me if you've got any questions and or if you're interested in learning more. brad.eickman@yahoo.com or click on the GoogleVoice link on the right side of the page and send me a voice message.

Happy Friday!
