Million Dollar Body is More than Just About the Business & the Money
I have to tell you, Million Dollar Body is such a rewarding business - more so than anything Angie and I have ever done before. As most of you know, after you sponsor two Coaches into your business the company starts to give you free customers. One of my first customers who chimed up and e-mail me was a guy named Warren.

Warren is in his early 40's and started his journey with Million Dollar Body at 274 pounds last February and said he had not seen a weight or gym since he was in high school. Warren has an incredible can do attitude and actually started with P90X. Let me tell you, Warren "Brought It" from day one and never looked back. In fact, he was even a inspiration for me.

Long story short, Warren lost 54 pounds his first 90 days in doing P90X and has gone on to break below the 200 pound mark. Warren and I have become friends and he also became a Coach as people have been asking him how he lost all the weight. I received an e-mail this weekend from Warren and he went to Santa Monica to work out with Tony, Dominic, Scott, Daniel Haas, and others. It's amazing what a year can do when you stick with it. Just thought you would enjoy the story.

Way to go Warren (Concreteman) - it's been a pleasure working with you and seeing how your life has changed!!

If you have a great story about a customer you have Coached, pass it on to blake@teambionics.com and I will include it in an upcoming NewsBlog.

Handy Little Trick to Seeing How Many New Customers You Are Getting Every Day
Follow these simple instructions to see how many customers are coming into your business each day (if you are a Active Emerald and above Coach).

1. Log into your Million Dollar Body Coaches back office.


2. Click on the Customer link at top of page.


3. In the upper right hand corner of the page you will see a "Quick Customer Search - Cust#:" with a empty box. Leave the box empty and click on the Search button.


4. On the following page, change the first Sort By drop down from "Last Name, First Name" drop down to "Join Date." Change the "Ascending" dropdown to "Descending." Next, place a period in the box next to "Email," just like the image above.
   
5. Lastly, click on the Search button.

Depending on how many customers you have, it could take a bit to load. Be patient. Once it loads you will see in order from the current date to the first date you started receiving customers how many you are getting on a daily basis.

February 4th; National "Before" Day!

Taken from Carl Daikeler's Blog. This is the vision and Brainchild of Carl Daikeler. It is named as such because, this year, that Monday is about starting your weight loss cycle the right way - with the kind of accountability that we know leads to real success.

The "Before photo" gives you instant accountability. (If you want to drive to a new destination, the directions you get depend on where you start. You can't get THERE, until you know where HERE is. That's why the before photo and measurements are so important. Please trust me on this!).

It will be easy to blow off any weight loss program, unless you have a photo of yourself in a swimsuit to show you your reality. Until you know what your waistline measurement is (measuring it two or three times, because you just can't believe the number) you won't truly be motivated to stay with the program. This is when you realize, your jeans actually haven't been shrinking, you have been expanding into them. Visit Carl's Blog at:

Million Dollar Body is Now Team Beachbody
Important new name change! For those of you who have not been reading your e-mail, or logged into your Coaches back office, Million Dollar Body has now become Team Beachbody. The company made this move because they realized they had spent the past 7 years branding Beachbody and it is a very strong recognizable name.

That's it for this week! Remember to keep pushing play and tell everyone you know about the Million Dollar Body business.

Team BIONICS NewsBlog - January 21st

Hello Team!

WOW, are things getting exciting or what? We are only about 7 weeks away from the official company launch and one year being in business.

We can't begin to tell you how important it is that you do everything you can to make it to this event. I guarantee it will change the way you look at this business and Million Dollar Body. How many times in your life have you said to yourself that you wish you had been "there" when some significant event happened and you decided not to go for whatever reason? This is one of those events and you are not going to want to miss it. When the people who come back from this event start spreading the word, and the amazing stories that will happen start to spread, you will be kicking yourself in the butt big time for not having attended this event.

Go to your Million Dollar Body Coaches back office or click here and get your tickets today!

NEW Business Presentimonial Radio Show with Special Guest Chris Simonian!

We are "stepping out on a limb" here and trying something fresh, new and exciting - something that has never been done before in the history of Network Marketing (that's our line and we're sticking to it).

What is it?

Well, back in "the day" when we first started doing network marketing, we used to pass out VCR tapes (yes, we are dating ourselves) and sent people to conference calls and 24 hour information hotlines. To date, many companies and leaders still do these types of calls and 24 hour conference lines. Remember, we live in the internet world now with streaming video available 24 hours a day. Why would you want to take someone to a 24 hour phone line to (only) hear about the business opportunity, when I can send them to a web site (or this e-mail template) and they can hear and see a video business opportunity presentation?

So I had to ask myself, what can we do that is new, fresh, and exciting that would get people to really want to listen to a "conference call" or "24 hour hotline?"

Fortunately for me, my good friend and Personal Trainer extraordinaire, Brian K. Bailey, (who is also a New Ruby Coach) had done me the dubious favor of introducing me to a new communications medium called BlogTalkTRadio.com. Still, I struggled with what we could do different with this great communications tool.

After some thought and strategizing, here is what my good friend Brian K. Bailey and I are going to do...

This Wednesday, January 23rd, at 6:00 PST we will be hosting the first of it's kind ever "Business Presentimonial Radio Show!

Okay, what the heck is a Business Presentimonial Radio Show? Simply put, Brian and I (Blake, in case you have not figured that out yet) will be hosting live (also recorded) weekly online radio shows where we will interview a Million Dollar Body Coach who has an inspirational story to tell regarding why they are doing the MDB business, what they like, their successes with the business, and or their physical transformation story, etc. It's a combination of a business presentation combined with testimonials for the business - hence the name Presentimonial.

So what makes this format different and better than any opportunity call out there today?

1. First of all, instead of the same person(s) talking about the business opportunity every week, and basically saying the same thing over and over and over again, we will have select Coaches who will be interviewed and tell THEIR story, their version of the opportunity, their testimonial, their success story.
   

2. This is live and interactive and will be different each week. Since we will have different Coaches being interviewed there will eventually be a great diversified list of interviews. You will here from a retired firefighter, a stay at home mom, a successful businessman, a professional network marketer, and many others as the weeks go by. Your prospects will be able to identify with the different people we will interview.

We're turning the tables on the traditional "business opportunity call" and shaking things up a bit. Will it work? Heck yes - but then again you never know.

Find out for yourself! Join us this coming Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008 and prove us wrong - or right. The bottom line is that each week you will get a powerful new perspective on the Million Dollar Body business and how it is changing people's lives.

These will all be recorded and archived so that you and anyone on your team will be able to listen to them 24/7. Have one you like in particular? Put on your web site, send it in an e-mail, send them to www.BlogTalkRadio.com/committostayfit. Want to be interviewed? Let me know. Want to be the Coach who does the interview? Let me know that too.

Date / Time: Wednesday, 1/23/2008 at 6:00 pm PST, 7:00 pm MST, 8:00 pm CST, 9:00 pm EST

Call-in Number: (646) 595-4442

You can also listen live on the internet at no cost by going to www.BlogTalkRadio.com/committostayfit.

We hope to "hear" you on the call!

Team BIONICS NewsBlog - How Customers are given to Coaches...

Welcome to the NEW Team BIONICS Newsletter Blog! I have decided to post the newsletter here for two reasons:

• It will make it easier for the announcement e-mail to get through spam filters. And, you can check back here whenever you want in case you miss an issue.


• When new Coaches come on board they can review past issues and get up to date on important items they may have missed.
  
  

FREE Paying Customer Lead Program Explained

Since we have been getting a lot of questions lately from Coaches regarding the free customers and the numbers we have all been getting, I asked the question to Kevin Jensen who is the V.P. of Sales for Million Dollar Body to explain in greater detail how the program works. Following is his response to me from January 8th:

This is what I (Kevin Jensen) know from my perch in the MDB tree:

No matter what the lead number is approximately 50-60% say yes to either the game or the free 30 day Club trial. So if we have 40,000 customers in one week then about 20,000-24,000 will be assigned to coaches.

Based on a report that I receive each day, last week we had 19,191 leads assigned to coaches. I believe this week will be a larger number because we do not have to factor in a holiday. So if I were in your shoes I would tell my prospects that MDB will share 10,000-20,000 leads each week depending on how much media we purchase for any given week. The number each Coach will receive depends on how many Coaches qualify to receive them in any given week. Last week we had just over 900 qualified to receive leads.

As you know, in about 30 days time, we expect to experience a drop in the number of people who receive leads when the new requirements are pushed live. In reality I expect that we will actually be around the 1000 mark because we gain a bunch and then lose some. I also expect the rate of adding new Emeralds to drop slightly because of the new requirements so February and March will most likely be strong months for “active” Emeralds and above to receive new customers... end of e-mail.

So, there you have it. Also note, that there was a glitch in the system last week and you may not have seen any customers come in. I heard this is being worked on and normal flow will start to resume shortly - if it has not already

Important Changes to the Customer Lead Program

Per Kevin's previous e-mail, and in case you have not been watching your Coaches News in the Coaches Members Area, following are the new Coach requirments to be able to recieve free customers. I agree with these changes.

As of February 11, 2008, in order to receive customer leads, you must:

1. Be an Active Coach with the paid rank of Emerald or higher,


2. Have worked out in WOWY® at least eight times in the preceding 30 days,


3. Be an active Club member,


4. Have an updated profile page with a completed bio and at least a "before" photo. For further details and information, please read the Customer Lead Program document.

This is good for the company and Coaches who are serious about the business. We have several Coaches who go out there and get their two Coaches and then never do anything else with the business. This change is fair, and as a Coach who is getting free custromers, - you need to be a product of the product. If you have not done so, make sure you upgrade ASAP. If you are a leader with a team of Coaches, make sure you pass this information on to everyone in your organization.

Million Dollar Body™ FIRST ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION! MARCH 2008
