The Empower Network Compensation Plan Explained
If you've been marketing on the Internet for any time, chances are you've heard about Empower Network and all the buzz revolving around it. Everyone's talking about Empower Network: 100% Commissions, 100% Commissions, 100% Commissions. To say that people are excited would be a huge understatement. For many new marketers, this is the first time that they are seeing results in the first few weeks, and for some within days and even hours.
Aside from the viral blogging platform (which is currently Empower Network's actual core product) and the 100% commissions, there's a very important component in their structure which makes it unique and attractive for seasoned marketers. The uniqueness of the Empower Network Compensation Plan allows your first sale to pay for the entire system. In other words, once you've referred your first person, you've basically paid for your monthly membership. This is important because most affiliate programs (and even MLM companies, even though Empower Network is not an actual MLM company) require you to refer 3-5 people before you break even. This alone has decreased the attrition rate for most Empower Network teams and has created numerous success stories in a very short amount of time.
So how exactly are marketers able to receive 100% Commissions with Empower Network?
When people sign up with Empower Network, they are not only becoming affiliates, but also resellers, and upon joining, the first task marketers are led to do is to set up their merchant account. This establishes them as a store owner with the ability to take credit card payments from anyone who chooses to buy from their link. When a purchase is made, instead of going to the company who then takes their cut and disburses the rest amongst the affiliates the payment is made directly to the marketer selling the system. The money literally transfers from the buyer's credit card to the seller's account instantly them giving them 100% of the Commission.
Pass Up Compensation Structure Broken Down
Empower Network's compensation model is not like many of the more commonly used plans in the industry. First, Empower Network has 3 products, and the compensation plan is separate for each - same plan, different cycles depending on where a person is in terms of sign ups.
In short the comp plan works like this:
The 1st, 3rd, and 5th sale goes to the distributor
The 2nd, 4th, 6th, and every 5th sale thereafter pass up to the distributor's sponsor.
This happens on every product level independent of one another. So although a distributor may have met his or her 'pass up' requirements for the Basic Membership ($25), he or she still may need to complete one or both of the remaining (Inner Circle $100, and Costa Rica Intensive $500).
It's a relatively simple compensation structure that provides the Empower Network member with ample opportunity to generate serious income with ease, but also provides enough incentive in the form of a 'pass up' sale for the member to encourage and assist with marketing efforts. Again, this is important to the overall success of the system since there will always be incentive for leaders to support their team above and beyond the initial sale they make when referring a new person.
Important Things You Need To Be Aware Of:
With regard to qualifying sales (pass ups) there are some important factors to keep in mind.
#1. On any sale that is passed up, you also sacrifice their pass ups as well.
For Example: Jack passes up Jill on a $25 membership because she was his 2nd sale. Any $25 membership Jill makes will also pass up skipping Jack and going to the person above him.
Yeah... kind of stinks, but the silver lining is that should Jill fall in a slot in either $100 and/or $500 memberships that do not pass up, Jack will retain her qualifying sales (pass ups) on those memberships.
#2. Pass ups are only counted on direct referrals (personally sponsored reps). Should they not be met, the distributor will lose any pass up sales on that level until filled.
For Example: Jack needs to qualify on his 6th $100, however he has not personally sponsored anyone for that position. Should Jill refer and inner circle member who passes up, that money will go to Jack's sponsor (upline) until he directly refers someone to that slot.
In spite of the above, do not be dismayed. The goal of the Empower Network is not only that you make massive amounts of income and learn to master the art of blogging daily, but also that you learn to become a skilled marketer by taking advantage of the 'plug and play' system that is available. By following the simple three step system provided by Empower Network: blog daily, share the system, and of course get paid, you'll be on your way to sharing your own success story in no time.
