Will their Compensation Plan allow you to make a reasonable income? - What kind of percentage per personal sale do you actually get? Are you satisfied with it? - What kind of percentage per downline sales do you actually get? Are you satisfied with it? - Who seems to benefit most from the compensation plan, you or the company? Does the company benefit ALOT more or is it balanced? Remember, the company has expenses to support that you do not, but the overall result should be fair to both.Question 9
Will their Distributor plan make it easy for you to grow your downline network and thus assure yourself a greater income? - Does the distributor plan in any way help you achieve a larger network, or are you left out on your own? - Is their distributor plan attractive? Do you think it looks attractive to other people as well? - Does the distributor plan seem fair? - Is the distributor plan appropriate just for novices, experienced networkers, or both? - Does the MLM sport any kind of special system that will help you achieve higher sales? - Are the bonuses they offer attainable through reasonable effort?Question 10
