MATRIX SOFTWARE MARKETING COMPANY
MEMBERSHIP SPONSORING PROGRAM & COMMISSION STRUCTURE
Thank you for taking the time to read this valuable information.
Matrix software company has chosen to market it's shareware programs through
a network of individuals (called sponsors) who have decided to join us in our
effort to make this Automated ShareWare Catalog System a huge success.
The secret to marketing any product successfully is to expose it to as many
prospective buyers as possible in the shortest period of time.
Many company's spend thousands of dollars on advertising for this exposure.
Being a small company with just an idea and a dream, we're not financially
able to spend that kind of money on advertising with only the hope of making
enough sales to offset it.
With a multi-level marketing plan such as this, we are getting the very best
advertising (word-of-mouth) and then paying for it by way of commissions to
those who have actually had a part in making the sales.
Here's how it works.
As an ASC club member, you are permitted to sponsor other's into the club and
earn commission from the dues and the purchases made by members you sponsor.
As an incentive for you to help the people you sponsor to sponsor additional
members, you will also earn commission from their sales and from those of
members for nine levels down from you.
This can be a substantial amount of money if you are willing to put just a
small amount of effort into it.
Commissions are calculated and paid through what we call a commission matrix.
The matrix is 9 levels deep and each level has a specific number of slots to
be filled with paying members.
The first level is only 3 members wide so obviously your first step toward
building a healthy commission check is to sponsor 3 new members.
Having 3 personally sponsored members is all that is required to qualify for
commission.
The minimum purchase required for active members is the dues of $2/month.
Your commission is 6% of the sales from all of the members in your commission
matrix.
This means that the commission from the 3 members sponsored by you would be
a whooping $0.36 per month.
Obviously your not going to be able to retire on that kind of money so let's
take a look at the entire commission matrix and see how it is filled with
paying members.

Here's the first 3 levels.
With the help of your sponsor, you spawn 3 members.
Then you help each of them sponsor 3 members, they help their spawns sponsor
3 and so on.
This is how a commission check would be calculated with a full matrix if each
member were buying the minimum of one $2 ShareWare disk per month.

1 3 $6 $0.36
2 9 $18 $1.08
3 27 $54 $3.24

===== =======
29523 TOTAL > $3,542.76 Commission per month.
Now remember, we're talking about the minimum required purchase by members.
If some members buy more than 1 program a month, then your commission would
Be higher.
With this limited size commission matrix, the maximum number of members you
can earn commission on at any one time is 29,523.
This limitation is actually to your advantage when it comes to earning money.
Because of the maximum member limitation on each level, when a level becomes
full, the extra sales will spill down to the next level in the matrix to the
first open commission slot.
This means that you can actually end up earning commission from members that
were spawned by your sponsor, or by sponsors above him, as well as from those
below you in your matrix.
Take a look at the diagram below.

┌────────────────────┼─────────────────────┐
Sponsor's 1st level YOU BILL JOE
┌─────┼─────┐ ┌─────┼─────┐ ┌─────┼─────┐
Your 1st level ANN TOM X
┌─┼─┐
Your 2nd level X X
Let's say your sponsor signed YOU, BILL and JOE on his first level.
Then before you got around to sponsoring anyone, your sponsor (or a sponsor
above him) signed up ANN and TOM.
Your Sponsor's 1st level (limited to 3 members) is full so ANN and TOM would
be positioned into your sponsor's 2nd level which is also your 1st level.
When you sponsor your 3 (indicated by the X's in your 1st and 2nd levels) two
of them will spill down to your 2nd level and into ANN's 1st level.
This chain reaction effect means that you could be very pleasantly surprised
when your first commission check arrives and you discover that even though you
have only signed a handful of members, someone in the matrix above you with
some experience and nice commission checks helping him sell this thing, signed
enough new members so that some have spilled down into your matrix.
You may want to back up and read this part again. It is a bit confusing but
once you thoroughly understand how it works, you will see that this marketing
plan can and will work.
All you need to do is find 3 people willing to spend $2 per month on top
quality ShareWare for their computing needs. How hard can that be ?
There is a bit more to it than just finding three people.
As a sponsor
