Beachbody Offers Fundraising Opportunities for Nonprofit Organization

Beachbody Offers Fundraising Opportunities for Nonprofit 


Organization



nonprofit-smallAre you a non-profit organization? Are you looking to expand your portfolio of fundraising offerings? Are you tired of offering fundraising product that add little value to a customer’s life? Beachbody offers an incredible fundraising opportunity that is absolutely free. You pay absolutely nothing and receive a 25% commission on all sales. It’s a brilliant way to raise money, help people get fit, and you don’t have to sell cookie dough or candles! Help your community get healthy!
As a certified P90X and Insanity professional, I am always looking for organizations to get involved with in the community. If you know of any nonprofits that would benefit, please let me know! Beachbody’s Non-Profit Coaching Opportunity for fundraising is the perfect way for Churches, Schools, PTA’s and other charitable organizations to earn money as well as help the community at large!
How can the opportunity benefit Churches and religious organizations?
Body Gospel
In addition to the fundraising aspect for being able to sell Beachbody’s incredible products, we can also host a Fit Club on a weekly basis using Beachbody’s Faith Based workout Program, Body Gospel. Fit Clubs will provide the congregation and community with the chance to workout for FREE in a supportive, motivating group setting.
How can the opportunity benefit Schools & PTA’s?
Tony Horton and the Kids
Beachbody offers several workout programs for kids, including “Shaun T’s Fit Kids Club” & “Tony and the Kids” with P90X’s famous trainer Tony Horton.  In addition to being able to sell these workouts and any of the Beachbody workout programs and products, your school or PTA can organize and hold FREE Fit Clubs for Kids using these workouts as well as Fit Clubs for adults.
How do we get a Fit Club Started?
That is the easy part.  As your coach,  I will not only help you organize and get a Fit Club started, but I will even help get them started until you feel comfortable enough to hold them on your own.  If you’d like me to attend each week, or if you are interested in holding a Fit Club without becoming a Non-Profit Beachbody Coach, I will hold them for your organization. As the host, you are responsible for the provision of a facility to hold the weekly fit club.
What is the Beachbody program for nonprofit organizations?
This is an opportunity for a qualified, charitable organization (IRS designated 501(c)(3) or other officially designated Tax Exempt Organization) to earn money with a Team Beachbody® Coach business. Qualified organizations can sign up as an Independent Team Beachbody Coach—free of sign-up and business-services fees—and participate in the income-earning opportunities (i.e., retail, team bonus cycle bonuses, etc.).
What are the benefits to the organization?
  • No sign-up fees.
  • No business service fees.
  • 25% commission on retail sales..
  • Weekly commission checks.
  • Web site with online store.
  • Easy administration.
  • 25% discount on fitness and nutritional products.
How to Get Started:
  1. Complete a Team Beachbody Nonprofit Coach Application form, and fax it along with supporting paperwork to Coach Relations at (310)-453-3639 or by e-mail to coachrelations@teambeachbody.com. In case you do not have access to either a printer or a fax, I can arrange to snail mail the forms to you. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
    NOTE: You do not need to include a credit card number on the form if you are NOT purchasing a challenge pack! In the sponsoring coach area include the following info. You can leave the phone and sponsor’s signature blank.
  2. Appoint a Business Administrator. Each nonprofit organization must appoint an adult (18 years of age or older) to be the account administrator responsible for the organization’s Coach Business Center. NOTE: This individual cannot enroll as a Coach elsewhere in the organization.

Nonprofit Organization Program F.A.Q.

How can the nonprofit organization make money?
There are three ways.
    • First, the organization can purchase products at wholesale and then turn around and sell them at retail (i.e., purchase 50 videos and sell them at a Spring Carnival—making $8.00 per video).
    • Secondly, the organization can send customers directly to their Team Beachbody Web site to order products. This method can help the nonprofit Coach achieve active status for the organization, should they desire it.
    • Thirdly, the organization (or their sponsor) can enroll other Coaches and build a Team from which they may earn team cycle bonuses.
What is the message (pitch) from the organization to their members?
This can be communicated as the healthy alternative fundraiser where members can get healthy and fit—a win-win for everyone.
Who is the administrator for the organization, and what is their role?
An administrator is necessary to manage the nonprofit Coach Business Center (credit card, Web site administration, account updates, etc.). This administrator will need to answer or redirect customer questions. An event chairperson or assigned person responsible for coordinating activities can act as the administrator. The administrator cannot have his or her own Coach business. The
administrator must be 18 years of age or older.
Who are the commission checks made out to?
Any commissions earned will be paid through weekly checks made out to the charitable organization. The organization can also choose a direct deposit option (EFT—Electronic Funds Transfer), and their commissions will be electronically transferred into their account.
How does the organization set up their Coach Business Center?
The organization will have to sign up as a Coach via a manual process (not online). This means they will need to produce the necessary forms and applications and fax/email them to Coach Relations.
Administrative forms needed:
    • A Nonprofit Coach Application
    • Proof of 501(c) Status (IRS Ruling Letter of IRS Letter of Determination)
