The Marketing Plan
Introduction to the marketing plan, qualification, and development.
LEADERSHIP & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
ROYALTIES, BONUSES & COMPENSATION
Network marketing can include several forms of compensation. The applicable Marketing Plan determines how retail activity, royalties, bonuses and leadership compensation are structured. Each element has its own requirements and purpose.
Retail Activity
The customer relationship is at the centre of the business. Independent members can generate retail activity by providing products to customers and developing ongoing customer relationships.
Retail activity connects the product with the person who actually uses it. It is therefore an important part of understanding how the business creates commercial activity.
The basic relationship
Royalties
Royalties are a form of compensation that can be connected to the sales activity of a qualified organisation. The exact requirements depend on the applicable Marketing Plan.
This means that royalties are not simply payments for having people in a network. Qualification, sales activity and other conditions can determine whether compensation applies.
From individual activity to organisation
Compensation depends on qualification requirements and the applicable Marketing Plan.
Bonuses
Bonuses can provide additional forms of compensation when specific requirements are achieved. These requirements may relate to sales volume, qualification, leadership development or other elements of the Marketing Plan.
A bonus should therefore be understood as part of a structured compensation system rather than as an automatic payment.
Qualification matters
Different bonuses can have different qualification rules. Always use the current applicable Marketing Plan when evaluating them.
Leadership Compensation
As a business develops, leadership can become an important part of the model. Leadership compensation can relate to developing an organisation, supporting independent members and maintaining the requirements of the applicable Marketing Plan.
The emphasis is therefore not only on individual sales, but also on the ability to develop people, customers and a sustainable business structure.
