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 aren't alone. MLM compensation plans are some the hardest things on the planet to understand, unless you have a degree in arithmetic. But fortunately, most mlm binary programs are quite simple to understand after you sit right down and crunch the numbers.

MLM Binary Compensation Plan Explained

The word binary means two. So think in terms of 2. When you sign up and start building your new business your first goal will be to go out and find two people who also need to aim towards securing time and financial independence.

You will sign these new people up and they become your front line. This is your personal line of support and because this is a binary system they can then go out and recruit two more folk each. No more. No less.

So now there's 3 of you, you and two others. Let's call them Mary and Jane. In the binary system Mary and Jane would go out and sponsor 2 other people each, and in theory everybody makes masses of cash and lives happily for ever. Unfortunately , many sign ups won't do what they say they're going to do, and perhaps Mary and Jane are lazy and don't function very well.

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.

MLM 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.

The challenge is you will still have to sponsor and induct a fair number of folk and place them on the other side of your business to "balance" the 2 legs because most plans only pay a commission when the product volumes balance. So while you might enjoy some enormous spillover - you will only get paid when you also add new folk to your business.

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.
