An Overview of 7 Different MLM Compensation Plans
There Are 7 different MLM compensation plans that will be outlined. No matter who you are in the MLM company, compensation plans can be baffling.
The step and ladder plan or Stair-step is a simple plan that must meet requirements before you can climb the "Stairs of Success". Each step is a promotion based on acquiring a certain volume and each promotion guarantees you a larger cut.
The "Number of Levels" or Unilevel is the amount the company will pay you; this usually does not involve a promotion or rank. Getting a certain override off the volume allows you to make money although there is a volume requirement to qualify for this payment.
"Business centers" can have two "legs" and that is called "The Binary". You will have a volume requirement on each leg in order to get paid and a "balancing" of volume from the A and B group (legs) in order to maximize your commissions.
The Breakaway usually appears in stair-step. Once you get to a certain level of success, your business "breaks away" and is no longer a part of what you got paid on. It is a bit unpopular since you could lose your business. and all the hard work you vested in it is gone.
A pre-order tree is sometimes called the Matrix or Forced Matrix. A plan is put into your group by a computer and this plan is usually combined with some form of a Binary. This works well if there are a lot of people recruited and working in unity to fill the matrix. The key word is working together or this plan will not work. When someone is recruited the computer searches for the next open slot and places the new recruit there.
A very unique plan is the Australian two up. Two people are "given" to your upline and you keep the rest of the recruits.
The Hybrid is the combination of any of the above and an example would be a Force Matrix with Unilevel benefits which ensures that the ones who work to fill a tree will get paid more. The Australian Two Up with Stair-step advancement to offset disadvantages of distributors being too deep in an organization.
Only you can make a plan work but none of them will make you money if you don’t recruit individuals and develop them. Working the plan will make you money.
Avoid this type of compensation plan in MLM.
Because there are many types of compensation plans, they all have their advantages and disadvantages. The one plan that should be avoided though is the breakaway plan.
The breakaway plan is an unpopular plan as you could lose your business that you built once it reaches a certain level of success and "breaks away". It is no longer a part of your group and you are not getting paid with it. It usually appears in stair-step. And example would be…
Two things can happen if my downline builds his organization faster than me and I am a Champion; he can qualify as an Emperor before me. Taking the company’s pay structure into account, overriding commissions from my downline Emperor’s group is not entitled to me. His bonuses will be passed to my upline Emperor or Grand Emperor. If entire groups break away and join my upline and were I to qualify as an Emperor later, I would not be entitled to receive bonuses from his group.
Unfortunately unethical means are used to slow downlines from breaking away or overtaking him. The breakaway has become a problem and more and more companies are rewarding people who work hard to build their groups. Which means that if a downline is working harder than his upline, than he should receive a greater reward. Why should the upline blame the company if the downline is working harder and breaks away. After all, a network marketing company is based on hard working people who are willing to work in unity to accomplish the same goal. If a downline sees the opportunity to make money acquiring his own downline instead of passing the profits to an upline, a break away makes more sense since the money now becomes a part of your own organization.
The breakaway plan is not the only compensation plan offered by MLM. Googling the various MLM plans will offer insight into the pros and cons when it comes to making a decision as to which plan to choose. There are older companies who still are using the breakaway plan and as a smart business owner, selecting a plan will require in-depth research to see "which shoe" fits right for you. Avoiding the breakaway compensation plan may just be an avenue of choice that is "right up your alley." Whatever plan you choose, much forethought will have been done in making the right selection to fill your needs in adopting a compensation plan from a network marketing company.
