According to
Then, the company 20 enrolls a person in a business of a company 20 and places the person as the frontline sponsor 10 in a peak position in a first level 1L in the placement tree. The frontline sponsor 10 is enrolled in and singing up to a business by purchasing products and making an agreement with a company 20 through a frontline sponsor terminal 103 (shown in
For example, the frontline sponsor 20 can earn $10 whenever they or their existing downline sponsor 30 recruit another downline sponsor 30. Likewise, the downline sponsor 30 can earn $10 whenever they or their existing downline sponsor 30 recruit another downline sponsor 30. Meanwhile, the company 20 may support the frontline sponsor 10 by adding new recruits to their downline sponsor 30, S109. The frontline sponsor 10 can obtain benefits from the company 20 based on the downline sponsor 30 who has been added by the company 20. In other words, when the company 20 provides recruiting commissions to the frontline sponsor, the number of the downline sponsor includes one who is recruited by the company 20 as well as one who is recruited by the frontline sponsor 10.
Likewise, when the company 20 provides the recruiting commission to the downline sponsor 30, the number of the downline sponsor 30, who is below the downline sponsor 30 whom the second recruiting commission is provided to, includes one who is recruited by the company 20 as well as one who is recruited by the downline sponsor 30 whom the recruiting commission is provided to. For example, when the downline sponsor 30, who has been added by the company 20, recruits another downline sponsor 30, the frontline sponsor 10 also gains additional commissions from this.
After enrolling the frontline sponsor, a new recruit becomes the downline sponsor 30 after signing up by purchasing products and making an agreement with the company 20, S111. Specifically, the company 20 enrolls and places one or two downline sponsors 30, who are recruited either by the company 20 or the frontline sponsor 10, in a second level 2L directly below the first level 1L in the placement tree. Referring to
In this instance, downline sponsor 30 may be recruited by either by the company 20 or the frontline sponsor 10. The downline sponsor 30 is enrolled in the business by purchasing a product of the company 20 and making the agreement with the company 20 through a downline sponsor terminal 103 connectable to the main server 101.
The present invention allows not only binary but also single or multiple recruiting system. In some embodiments, at least one position in a higher level has a single position in a lower level, that is immediately below the higher level, of the plurality of levels.
Likewise, the company 20 enrolls and places at least one downline sponsor 30 in at least one level, such as a third level 3L, a fourth level 3L, a fifth level 5L, and so on, under the second level 2L in the placement tree. The downline sponsor 30 under the second level 2L is recruited either by the company 20 or the downline sponsor 30 who is in a position directly above;
The downline sponsor 30 may sell products to customers S113, and recruit people as their downline sponsor S115.
Then, the company 20 re-enrolls the frontline sponsor 10 as an avatar sponsor 10A1, 10A2, 10A3, 10A4 and placing the avatar sponsor 10A1, 10A2, 10A3, 10A4 in a position in any level under the first level 1L in the placement tree S119. Specifically, as the number of downline sponsor 30 increases and reaches a certain level, the frontline sponsor 10 needs to re-enroll or sign up to the business as an avatar sponsor by purchasing products and making an agreement with the company 20, S119. The avatar sponsor indicates the frontline sponsor 10 who re-enrolls as a downline sponsor under his or her own line. The frontline sponsor 10 has a responsibility to be the avatar sponsor at some certain points.
In some embodiments, the plurality of levels in the placement tree includes a plurality of re-enrolling levels that the frontline sponsor 10 re-enrolls himself or herself as the avatar sponsor 10A1, 10A2, 10A3, 10A4. For example, the plurality of re-enrolling levels includes: a fifth level 5L and levels for multiples of five, such as a tenth level 10L, a fifteenth level, and a seventh level 7L and levels for seven plus multiples of five, such as a twelfth level 12L, a seventeenth level. While at least one downline sponsor 30 is filled in the second, the third, and the fourth level 2L, 3L, 4L, the frontline sponsor 10 is required to re-enroll as the avatar sponsor 10A1 in the fifth level 5L. The avatar sponsor system allows the frontline sponsor 10 to earn double additional commissions as well as the company 20 can make continuous and secure profits from periodical re-enrolling and purchase of the products by the frontline sponsor 10.
The frontline sponsor 10 may have a responsibility of becoming an avatar sponsor 10A2 in a seventh level 7L as well. In addition, the responsibility of becoming an avatar sponsor may be occurred every five levels from the fifth and the seventh level 5L, 7L. Thus, the responsibility of becoming an avatar sponsor 10A3, 10A4 may be occurred in tenth and the twelfth level 10L, 12L. The requirements or levels that the responsibility of becoming an avatar sponsor is occurred may be various and not limited to the levels mentioned above.
Meanwhile, as the frontline sponsor 10 continues selling and recruiting S123, the company 20 provides a bonus to the frontline sponsor 10 based on at least one of: the number of the downline sponsor 30, the levels placed by the downline sponsor 30, the number of customers who purchases a product of the company 20 from the frontline sponsor 10, and the number of the downline sponsor 30 who is recruited by the frontline sponsor 10, S121. The bonus will be explained in more details referring to
As mentioned above, the frontline sponsor 10 can earn $10 as a commission whenever they or their existing downline sponsor 30 recruit another downline sponsor 30. The commission based on recruiting the downline sponsor 30 may be provided to the frontline sponsor 10 up to downline sponsors 30 in a twentieth level.
The present invention allows not only binary but also single or multiple recruiting system. Thus, although the frontline sponsor 10 recruits one person into the business, the frontline sponsor 10 can earn continuous profits from the direct downline sponsor 30 and the other downline sponsor 30 who the direct downline sponsor 30 further recruits.
However, in order to avoid immoderate dependency on the support from the company 20, such as a supply of the downline sponsors, if the frontline sponsor 10 fails to recruit any one of the downline sponsor 30 by himself or herself within fourth level 4L, the frontline sponsor 10 may lose their right to gain commissions from the downline sponsors 30.
Meanwhile, if the frontline sponsor 10 recruits two downline sponsors 30 within fourth level 4L, the frontline sponsor 10 may earn commissions made by both of two downline sponsors 30.
According to
The frontline sponsor 10 connects to the main server 101 operated by the company 20 to sign up the business using the frontline sponsor terminal 103. The main server 101 may be a form of website or a mobile application and can be accessed through internet.
The frontline sponsor terminal 103 communicates with customer and/or potential downline sponsor who have the customer terminal 105 and the downline sponsor terminal 107, 109 in order to promote the products or the business. Then, the customer can buy the products on the website or the mobile application provided by the main server 101. The potential downline sponsor also can sign up to the business on the website or the mobile application provided by the main server 101. Some customers may directly access to the website or the mobile application provided by the main server 101 with their customer terminals 111.
