BeachBody MLM SHUTS DOWN (BODi): The Girls are SHOOK

BeachBody MLM SHUTS DOWN (BODi): The Girls are SHOOK
Hey everyone! In today’s video we are discussing how BODi (aka BEACHBODY) is shutting down the mlm portion of their business and switching to an affiliate only model. The girlies are NOT happy and it seems like a lot of them were very shocked by the change!

another one bites the dust... 😏 (kind of)

[@xpaperxcutx4588]

All the top coaches are jumping to other mlms like Hugh and Grace and Make Wellness. They’re jumping and calling themselves founders at Make.

[@megschmeedafamc]

Omg yesssss!!!! This has been such a great year for the downfall of MLMs.

[@Ilovetruecrime545]

Ok… the weirdest thing to me in all this is these “top coaches” always seemed to show off how rich they were (millionaires) so why are they so desperate to keep doing this??? If they’re so rich can’t they ‘retire’?? Just seems like they weren’t making as much as they wanted us to believe

[@stebu178]

Or they are greedy. They will find some other MLM to join. I have an acquaintance that was in Rodan and Fields. When they stopped being an MLM, she switched to a different MLM because “the best part of her job was leading a team, building women up and helping them be successful” and she would not longer be able to do that at R and F.

[@xpaperxcutx4588]

Some of them bought expensive millionaire dollar homes and had to sell them. A lot of them are selling and now taking their down lines to other mlms. It seems like they thought this would last forever so they were still spending outside of their means.

[@Sammy_503]

They are “sad” because they basically cant talk people into joining and making money off of them anymore lol

[@PrettyAliceNight]

I’ve seen people say things like “WE decided to move away from the MLM model” but it wasn’t them that had anything to do with it. It was the company they work for and do not own (not their own business) so therefore do not have any say in what happens.

[@Chelseabee55]

Remember when MLMers used to say that MLMs were the same as network marketing? Clearly not if they’re changing their business model to become networking sales

[@londonchandler18]

But I thought THEY were the CEOs? 😅

[@SharAziz]

bahahahahahahaha

[@lsacks9196]

I feel it’s a bit ironic that the reason the companies are going to affiliate pay is because they do all of their business through social media and it’s cheaper to pay affiliates than pay commissions.

[@QueenKaleGardener]

What's wild is how they tried to convince people it wasn't an MLM but that it was affiliate marketing and now they are upset because it's NOW affiliate marketing and they are seeing that its not the same thing! 😂

[@nerdoftheatre]

The CEO says it's unethical????? THE PEOPLE AT THE TOP are saying that????

[@joyfuljaj]

Carl did say that they will be given a list of all their customers so they will have a place to start but all those customers will have to re-sign up under them. My thought though was if you have been running a business why do you not have a database of your customers? oh because it's not your business.

[@therelentlesslyempowered]

The gag is your customer list was ALWAYS available. You could download your customers anytime you want to🤷🏽‍♀️

[@Hodgepodge9310]

Amazing how they quickly they move from being passionate about helping people get healthy and live their best lives to jumping ship when their downline gets cut off. The fact the people under them will likely make more than they ever before is the irony in their pity party.

[@Les_lee]

the toxic levels of positivity....i bleed blue...oh brother.

[@strawberry0gurt.]

just started the vid but just have to say your hair is gorgeous 😍😍

[@Bytchesagainstbullshyt8]

She should start her own hair care line....MLM 😂 JK 😂

[@LaurenWhittingtonLifestyle]

Also, these girls make 500K to $1M a year in this business… not $100K. They are their family’s income! This was a huge blow!

[@haunted_lunchbox]

As an actual fitness coach.... calling them coaches is a big stretch. 😑😑😑

[@therelentlesslyempowered]

Not for nothing, but I was a BODi partner and my main takeaways are the following. Anyone who signs your check besides you, you’re at that person’s mercy. In other words, you did not have a business. You are a contractor, subject to whatever rules, regulations, terms, or conditions that the person signing the check puts in front of you. That being said, it surprises me that any of the top partners is complaining that 95% of their income is being taken away by this change. I would think that over the years they would develop a certain business acumen that secured several streams of income. I am also surprised that they didn’t develop an email list for the customers and that they’re so concerned that their customers ‘would go away“ and that neglected to build in certain business basic systems that reflected what they built over a decade. This is truly surprising. The people I feel bad for the most is the 33% of BODi employees that lost their jobs last week. Let’s say a prayer for them.

[@Santiago-in1xf]

For all the money they say they were making, i know they said they couldn't diversify (meaning no other MLM) but there are ways to diversify outside that....investing, rental properties, have a real job....SMH

[@Bytchesagainstbullshyt8]

That first girl and her weird mouth noises almost made me click off 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@hubabaloop]

Glad I’m not the only one 😂

[@billybee9659]

We (the anti-MLM community) owe such a huge thank you to creators like you. This community is winning as a direct result of all the attention that has come from these kinds of videos. What a huge success. Thank you!

[@SharAziz]

The optimism is delusional.

[@Bobaily]

Yass I’ve been waiting for you to talk about this!! This is crazy because Bodi is one the bigger MLMs and if even they are realizing the market is changing then I can’t imagine these companies lasting much longer

[@amydost]

The way Dyer can say "i groomed so many of the top successes" and not realize how creepy that sounds is....creepy.

[@miikoshka]

The one who was a nurse… clearly couldn’t handle healthcare. We work a hard job. You work til your water breaks to make enough in OT to go on mat leave. You don’t get breaks. You don’t have a work life balance. You don’t go into healthcare or emergency medicine because it’s cute or trendy or pays well. She wasn’t a good fit for the work and that’s ok, but she needs to be honest with herself. Her “working from home” with her kids certainly doesn’t mean she’s present with them all the time either. See any mommy influencer glued to their phone.

[@chelsey8737]

It seems like my first comment didn't post so hopefully this isn't a repeat. I think you should make a video on how many of these people are religious and how that might play into joining an MLM. It seems like the vast majority of these people that I have seen are religious and they use that constant religious imagery and language to justify and rationalize their own involvement in MLMs as well as recruit others

[@fluffyduckbutt24]

Most are Mormons

[@loseweightwithmealplanning]

The irony of these distributors is half of them aren’t crying cos they’re not going to get to help THEIR ‘CLIENTS’ its because they can’t make money from them!! I’ve spoken to a few of them and asked why don’t they go get qualified to coach properly and they’re all saying they gonna do something else, this shows the tears are cos they’ve lost money!!! Also trying to go to be MLMs wild!

[@jaymel4691]

These top earners are only upset because it's now "fair" to everyone who joins. Everyone who joins will be treated the same. And they can't make tons of money by stealing it from their huge downlines anymore. If this was ever about the products, this would be a good thing for them. And for over 90% of the company, it is. Those people will not make a lot of money but they will make some from selling the products, and probably more than they ever made in the MLM, without having to spend it all to make their minimum purchase requirements, website fees, etc. I can't wait to see all MLMs crumble!

[@anij80]

and no one say they have to stop talking to each other! Also, know you have to really work for your own commissions, not exploit and scam others below you for your income.

[@SweaterFreak]

The last video is spot on. Ppl do what works for them.

[@hannahw2697]

That one lady towards the end….i didn’t make cash for braces from selling candles, adult toys, jewelry, or Beachbody. But I did make enough to pay cash for braces working at Crumbl for a month. You know, a regular job where I actually get paid for my time.

[@shilohbell1573]

Chalene Johnson had an excellent take. I do love Beach Body. I’ve been doing their programs some Slim in Six in 2005. I love all their programs. I’m excited it’s changing. I’ve been at the wayyyyy bottom of the BB MLM.

[@bradenwitt9186]

I thought they owned their business and were boss babes

[@anij80]

the huns crying is so cringe. But i tough they always say "its like an affiliate, guys" Know that it is, you are crying? so it was never an affiliate, then! cry me the smallest violin! what you crying is you will no longer be able to exploit your downline.

[@Sparkmanda]

I feel like Monat is going to be the next MLM to turn to solely affiliate marketing because they've not been doing too well lately

[@Santiago-in1xf]

I bet bodi did the math on how many people who like the BeachBody brand are turned off by the MLM side and would buy otherwise...so they save money on commissions and get lapsed customers back. Win win.

[@jessiedarrelljarbadan7326]

I wonder if that lady was referring to Eva M? Either way, clearly whomever got under her skin, ha ha. “Corporate America?” Bodi is a corporation and it’s in America. The call is coming from within the house.

[@jlaws63]

It's called a database called Access. Should've used it.

[@Treekyboi]

Nice coffee, some video games, and a new kyla video ❤

[@bestlaidplans2024]

I think these tops earners are good at selling dreams and not products, hence why they're upset

[@MrPAULONEAL]

Holy cuts Batman...

[@KylaJames]

Unfortunately I have adhd and take pauses/ forget what I’m saying mid sentence a lot. I also cut out any “ums”, deep breaths that can be heard on the mic etc because I think they sounds worse than just cutting them out!

[@jeanettemccay]

i dont do bodi for over a year and a half ago so can care less about bodi
