Piracy "Hey Coach I just downloaded my copy online!"

April 28 at 10:45am
Hey Coaches! I think we've all got the phone call, the email, or the text message from a prospect, friend, or family member that goes something along the lines of, "I just downloaded a Free copy of P90X".

I've had it plenty of times. If they get a used copy from amazon, ebay, or something like that, that's legal. Granted those don't come with a guarantee, materials may be missing etc so it's always best to buy new from our respetive team beachbody store but that's a personal choice and I'm fine with that.

Our collective pet peeve are the illegal copies that our friends, prospects and family members are all to eager to take advantage of.

I'm here to tell you Not to stress or worry about it. It is not going to prevent you from making a fortune as an independent team beachbody coach unless you worry about it so much that it keeps you from being immersed in the process of business building.

Piracy is just a reality of modern technology so we've got to get over that fact because we cannot change that. When I was new it drove me crazy but I got over it and you must do the same if you haven't already.

Most of your focus should be on Shakeology. The enormous health benefits are obvious to us. But from a business stand point this is something that cannot be downloaded. It's also something that renews every month for continuous residual income. When someone buys P90X for example it's just a one time commission you earn of about $30. Plus if you're actively retailing Shakeology some of those people will buy other stuff from your team beachbody store. Some of them will even sign up to be coaches because they are so impressed!

A fellow coach told me how a friend of his used him to figure out which beachbody program to get, took up a bunch of his time doing so, only so he could download an illegal copy of that program later. If you come across someone who is going to use you like that then they have no respect for you. As you're actively immersed in this process you'll gain valuable time management skills just knowing who to spend your valuable time with and who not to. The key to making this whole experience a fun and incredibly rewarding one is to let the losers be losers and work with people whos goals, dreams, and integrity are worth your time. Don't focus on those who are not willing to make some changes for the things they want.

Since this is a results oriented company lets speak to the results! I know a lot of people who have downloaded P90X illegally and not a single one of them ever got in great shape like myself or the people in the infomercial or like any of you have. I know a lot of people who got P90X the Right Way and they are ripped now! If you're talking to someone pondering on which way to get P90X or any other program just share that tid bit of info with them. Do they want to get in great shape or not?

Illegal downlines don't contain the workbook and nutrition guide typically. These are the most important parts of the program! If someone isint following the the workbook and the Nutrition guide then they are not really doing P90X. They are doing their own version of P90X and it as just as wrong as it is physically dangerous.

Keep this in mind to. Just because they have an illegal copy it doesnt automatically mean they are a lost cause. I have gotten a few of my friends with illegal copies onto shakeology. This is rare but it does happen. Some people are willing to change their ways and that's where we come in as coaches.

There are all kinds of reasons why piracy is bad and just doesn't work. All I'm trying to say in this group update is to not worry about it! Don't stress yourself out about it you have no control over it! Focus more on shakeology and most of all spend your valuble time with people who are worth your time :-)

I hope this helps some of you deal / not deal with the whole Piracy issue.
