Special Characteristics of the Compensation Plan

1. Clients and Health Coaches pay the same price for products. Health Coaches do not buy wholesale, stock inventory, or re-sell the product to Clients. Clients order directly from the company.
2. Health Coaches are not compensated for their personal orders, as they remain the Client of their sponsoring Health Coach.
3. Health Coaches are not compensated for recruiting Health Coaches, but for helping a new Health Coach support Clients or grow productive teams—not for purchasing an Enrollment Kit.
4. To become a Health Coach, a Client must purchase an Enrollment Kit, which includes training and marketing materials.
5. No compensation will be earned or paid until a new Health Coach activates his business online.
6. Client Support Commissions are calculated and paid as a percentage of the Adjusted Retail Price of a product.
7. Growth Bonuses and Leadership Bonuses are calculated and paid as percentages of Commissionable Volume.
8. Compensation and bonuses are calculated and paid only on consumable products.
9. All payments occur on a regularly scheduled basis. Commissions are paid weekly and bonuses are paid monthly.
10. The Compensation Plan is considered "real time," meaning that regardless of a previous rank earned, a Health Coach is paid only for his current monthly performance.
