Commission Incentives: Recruiting vs. Own Sales

[DZmom]

I know how commission works as a consultant, but how does it work as you recruit others. I know that you get 1 to 2% extra commission top of your regular commission for your own sales, but do you recieve a commission for your recruits sales as well?

The recruiting side of the business is still very fuzzy to me.

When you become a Future Director (with 2 signed, active recruits) you will receive a 1% override on your sales, as well as on the sales of your new consultants, provided you submit $1250 in sales each month. When you promote to Director, the override is 3% on your sales and 3% on your first line consultants. I believe you must submit total cluster sales of $4000 each month to receive the override (please correct me if I'm mistaken on this!).

HTH!

You have it right except that Directors have to submit at least $350 of that $4000 each month. Directors also get 3% on second line consultants once they promote a director.

Oh, one other thing. As a Future Director you only receive the override on personally recruited consultants - you do not get overrides on THEIR recruits.

So say I have 2 recruits. I will earn my commission + another 1% on my sales and then a commission + 1% on their sales? If we both submit the right amount of sales.

You earn your commisision based on your total sales for the month. As a future director you also get 1% more for your personal sales and you get 1% of whatever your personal recruits sell.

For example (these per centages are for consultants who have not reached the $15000 in sales - we get 2% more after that!):

You sell $2000 = 23% commission
You have 2 personal recruits so that adds 1% to your personal commission = 24%

personal recruit Sue sells $1000. She gets 22%.
personal recruit Mary sells $2600. She gets 24%.
Mary's recruit Jane sells $1250. She gets 23%.

Because you are a future director you get 1% of Sue and Mary's sales (1% of $3600). You don't get anything for Jane's sales because you didn't recruit her.

Once you are a DIRECTOR, you earn 3% on your personal sales and 3% on all first and second line sales (even those you did not personally recruit). Plus you get many other benefits!!
