Does A MLM Binary Work

By Robert David Strong


So you believe you're prepared to start your new network marketing business and you've done your homework. Then when someone talks with you about the compensation plan they mention the term mlm binary and you scratch your head - what does this mean?

You are not the only one. Network marketing compensation plans look like they were written by maths PhD's and appear to be surprisingly complicated. Though on the surface they may look difficult, but if you sit down with somebody who knows about them they are easy to figure out.

So What's an MLM Binary Plan?

As everyone knows binary means 2. So you just have to think of everything in pairs. One of the first things that you're going to have to do when you start building your new business is to recruit 2 new people who also want to enjoy the financial freedom of MLM promoting.

You sign them up and place them on what's called your front line. Your private line of funding and, because you are working a MLM binary program, you and everyone else in the business is only permitted to have up to 2 people on their front line. Two. Only 2.

So now you have recruited two others into your front line, let's call them Dick and Jane. If they follow the plan Dick and Jane can then go out and sponsor 2 more folks and so it goes on, and everybody gets rich and achieves their goals. Unfortunately Dick and Jane won't be especially effective at MLM marketing and this occurs a lot .

The next step will be to sign up more folk, but because you can only have 2 folk on your front line, the following 2 sign ups have to either go under Dick or Jane or one can go under each. It's your decision to keep the legs balanced.

Now what's Binary Spillover?

When you dropped your new recruits into the downlines of Fred and Mary, they received upline spillover. To paraphrase, you have helped them build one side of their business based on your efforts. And this is one of the massive benefits of the MLM binary compensation plan - the concept, if you've got an active upline, they might essentially help you build half your business.

You don't stop there, you still have to continue to sponsor and induct a lot of folk and keep balancing the 2 legs of the plan with the right folk because most plans only pay a commission when the product volumes balance. You will enjoy a lot of spillover, but you'll only be compensated when you keep adding new people.

So though you believed you were ready to start your business this is another side that you should look at. It isn't a question of MLM binary being the right system for you, the question is how are you going to market your business to build your downline? You've got to have a plan to pimp your products and also your opportunity to others to build your business.

What type of budget do you have for advertising and marketing? Have you considered employing a lead generation system, which by the use of attraction selling should help to explode your business.

Are you also aware that in MLM you will be looked up to as a leader by your downline, they will expect you to assist them with their business and to hit their goals. Many folks make a lot of money in the MLM business, so actually it is not the compensation plan that's critical. Your principal concern will be the right way to build your business quickly and effectively.
