Binary MLM Compensation - 5 Issues You Need To Understand
Binary MLM plans are undoubtedly widespread these days, so here are a few lessons from my own experience.
First, for the uninitiated, binary MLM pay plans have one defining characteristic: you have just two "legs" in your group... a left leg and a right leg. Everyone you ever sponsor will be placed in a direct line, one after the other, down one of those two legs.
Here are 5 issues you should appreciate if you're considering joining a binary MLM compensation plan:
1. Use fear of loss to motivate recruiting.
In a binary, each customer who enrolls is placed underneath the person who joined before them (in that leg.)
Not only does this provide "overflow" to your team, which encourages cooperation and retention, but the skilled MLM sponsor can use this to drive recruiting.
"I have 5 people's paperwork in front of me on my desk. If you sign up right now, I'll enroll all 5 of these below you. If not, that's cool... I'll just enroll you under them when you are ready to join."
There are "powerline" systems that automate this. It's effective stuff.
2. Position is critical.
Negotiate your position with your sponsor carefully.
Some positions get more overflow than others. Your sponsor is going to want to place you where it pays them the most, but be careful. If your sponsor places you at the top of their inside leg, you won't get any overflow unless they continue to sponsor.
On the opposite side, demanding to be placed to maximize overflow will help you... but it may not help your sponsor as much. So, they may be less willing to devote time and effort to assisting you to maximize your business.
There is no crystal clear answer, which is why my suggestion is just to tread carefully. Don't just hop in without reasoning it through and talking to your sponsor.
3. TNSTAAFL.
Fans of Douglas Adams' "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe" know all too well... There's No Such Thing As A Free Lunch.
Even with the best position and a complete organization worth of overflow, a binary MLM still won't pay you a cent unless you recruit yourself. Overflow has to be matched with volume you bring to the table for it to be beneficial. So, don't enroll in a binary thinking that you're going to get something for nothing.
Also, when sponsoring someone it's okay to tell them about the overflow they may receive, but make sure they recognize TNSTAAFL. It won't kill the sale... if anything, it'll prove them on you as a leader even more. And if you do lose them, you didn't want 'em anyway.
4. Teach your organization to recruit outside then inside.
The first person you sponsor into a binary should go on the same side, either left or right, that your sponsor placed you on. This is called your "outside" leg.
The second person you enroll should go "inside," in the other leg.
The order is paramount... a lot of people enroll in an MLM sponsor 1 person and throw in the towel. If that 1 person was placed outside, they will get overflow from their sponsor. If not, they will be working their business solo forever.
To protect against that, you should always teach "outside, inside."
5. The best binaries are hybrids.
Plain binary MLMs are no longer cutting-edge. In fact, there were several problems with them.
But, when "combined" with a unilevel, coded bonus, or other commission plan, those issues can be easily resolved. These hybrid structures-particularly the binary/unilevel-have proven to be very stable and fair to distributors.
They are the BMW of contemporary MLM compensation plans.
