Binary MLM Plans - 5 Things You Need To Remember
Binary MLM plans are genuinely widespread these days, so here are a few thoughts from my own experience.
First, for the inexperienced, binary MLM pay plans have one defining characteristic: you have only two "legs" in your downline... a team leg and a pay leg. Everyone you ever sponsor will be placed in a continuous line, one after the other, down one of those two legs.
Here are 5 facts you should remember if you're considering joining a binary MLM compensation plan:
1. Use fear of loss to drive recruiting.
In a binary, each individual who signs up is placed underneath the person who joined before them (in that leg.)
Not only does this offer "overflow" to your team, which encourages cooperation and retention, but the astute MLM sponsor can use this to motivate recruiting.
"I have 5 people's paperwork right here on my desk. If you enroll right now, I'll enroll all 5 of these under you. If not, that's cool... I'll just enroll you below them when you are ready to join."
There are "powerline" systems that automate this. It's ultra powerful stuff.
2. Position is critical.
Negotiate your position with your upline carefully.
Some positions get more overflow than others. Your sponsor is going to want to place you where it benefits 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 other side, requesting 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 expand your business.
There is no obvious answer, which is why my advice is just to tread carefully. Don't just enroll without reasoning it through and discussing it with your upline.
3. TNSTAAFL.
Lovers 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 enterprise worth of overflow, a binary MLM still won't pay you a penny unless you recruit yourself. Overflow has to be paired with volume you bring to the table for it to be worth anything. So, don't go into a binary reasoning that you're going to get something for nothing.
Also, when enrolling someone it's great to tell them about the overflow they may receive, but make sure they appreciate TNSTAAFL. It won't assassinate the sale... if anything, it'll sell them on you as a leader even more. And if you do lose them, you didn't want 'em anyway.
4. Teach your team to enroll 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 considered your "outside" leg.
The second person you recruit should go "inside," in the other leg.
The order is essential... a lot of people sign up to an MLM sponsor 1 person and resign. If that 1 person was placed outside, they will get overflow from their upline. If not, they will be working their business by themselves forever.
To protect against that, you should always teach "outside, inside."
5. The most stable binaries are hybrids.
Vanilla binary MLMs are no longer cutting-edge. In fact, there were a lot of problems with them.
But, when "merged" with a unilevel, coded bonus, or other commission structure, those problems can be easily solved. These hybrid structures-particularly the binary/unilevel-have proven to be very stable and fair to distributors.
They are the Mercedes of contemporary MLM compensation plans.
