Yes, I like to learn more about generation MLM softwareHow does generation plan work?
The generation MLM plan is as simple as any other compensation plan. However, it does have some resemblance to a normal unilevel plan. Before explaining about generation plan lets see how it is different from a basic unilevel plan.
The below pictorial representation is a normal unilevel plan.
Have you noticed something from the image? In a distributors tree, all the customers and referrals are placed in a single business level. This particular method affects the consistency of the plan.
In the direct selling business, not every customer becomes a distributor. They may remain in the system as a one-time consumer or a regular customer but never want themselves as a distributor. However, consumers become distributors if they find good opportunities or they find the products worth selling.
If these distributors and customers are placed under a single level of the tree, then there arise inconsistencies. What might be the possible solution? Won’t this issue become more complex in an e-commerce business with good traffic?
Sure, it will!
The best solution is preferring a generation plan over other compensation plans. Instead of a single generation level, there will be many generations. Let’s use the above example of distributor A to explain the plan.
Clearly, there is a significant difference from the normal unilevel plan. A1, A2, A3, and A4 are the direct referrals of distributor A.
Generation 0: This group consists of the sponsor (Distributor A) and his/her customers.
Generation 1: This group consists of the sponsor’s (Distributor A1) first direct downline and his/her customers.
Generation 2: This group consists of the sponsor’s (Distributor A2)second downline and his/her customers.
Generation 3: This group consists of the sponsor’s (Distributor A3) third downline and his/her customers.
Thus there will be many generations in a single generation plan. This particular tree is termed as a generation tree.
Retail profit benefits: The profit received by the distributors once they sell a product to the customers outside the MLM system. The distributor gets the products in wholesale rate from the product selling company.
First, get sponsored to a system and then the distributor enrolls in the plan by purchasing a package. They get the products in wholesale price that equals the enrollment package fees.
Distributors then sell their products to outside customers for a retail price. Thus the distributors get a retail profit which is the difference between the retail value and wholesale value. This is beneficial mainly for e-commerce business.
