If you are able to meet your daily goal before lunchtime, the rest of the day you can do what you want. The days that you do work, you do not have to work solely from home.

The success of the network marketing business largely depends on so many factors such as company structure, leads, and compensation plans. It is very important for the distributors to analyze the compensation plans before entering the business. Here is an overview of the compensation plans involved in the network marketing companies. There are four main types of plans: the unilevel plan, the breakaway plan, the forced matrix plan, and the binary plan.

All the above said plans have three fundamental elements such as commission type, rules, and structure. The commission type is the one where the marketers are paid based on it. The rules defines the criteria and goals for the distributors to achieve in a month and this also defines the benefits and rewards for achieving the target. Structure defines where the distributor is placed in the organization.

In the unilevel compensation plan, the qualified distributors are paid with the level commissions. This means that all distributors are paid with the same amount of compensation for the sales made. In this plan, there are no ranks for the distributor and everyone occupies the same position. This is the simplest plan and the purpose of this plan is to make a large front-line distributors. This plan is considered as the stable plan for running the business.

The breakaway compensation is the next version of the unilevel plan or a hybrid of the unilevel. This is   the oldest plan where the distributors after reaching certain ranks with the increased performance break away from the original upline member. This plan is more of group based and this is most recognized by the regulatory bodies.

In the forced matrix compensation plan, the distributors are restricted to recruit only certain number of people at their level until their grid is filled completely. Once all the matrix in this plan is filled, a new matrix is formed. Binary plan is new to the network marketing business. The level is restricted with only two members and if the vacant is filled, the new members are placed in the deeper level. This plan does not have any depth limit.

Why Your Downline Should Be Your Number One Concern?

June 10, 2010 by stone   · Leave a Comment 

Many people who join the multi level marketing industry often have false illusions. They think it is going to make them rich and, with an luck, do it very quickly. Unfortunately, very few people become what you could consider rich. However, many people often are able to live quite comfortably on the income they earn from it and this is why your downline should be your number one concern.

Your downline has the ability to make it easier for you. Most companies will have some type of commission structure set up that will allow you to earn a small portion of the commissions that are earned by those you have recruited. When they sell something, you earn a small amount of money.

Most people think that that more members they recruit into their business, the more opportunity to have to make a lot more money. This is true, except for one thing. You can’t always be guaranteed that your recruit is actually going to work hard. This is why it is important to make certain that the people you are recruiting into your business are motivated and really want to succeed. The more work they put in, the less you will have to do yourself.

So how do you know that you are recruiting the best people for the business and the ones who are going to help you earn a higher income? It is all a matter of getting to know them. The people you want to recruit are the ones who consistently ask you questions and the ones who are coming to you on their own. If you have to chase somebody down to check in with them, they are probably not going to be the best income producer.

The whole goal of this business is to grow your downline to a point that you do not have to work as many hours. Wouldn’t it be nice to work ten to twenty hours a week and get paid as if you worked eighty? The key is to make sure the people you are recruiting are actually going to help you achieve this.
