Sponsoring Your Frontline

This is another numbers post. Maybe numbers don't inspire you. That's fine. This post is here in case numbers DO inspire you! And these numbers are inspirational!! You joined the Jamberry Nails team for a reason. Something got you excited about this business. You have been seriously reflecting on your WHY. And you've set some goals to get you headed in the right direction toward achieving your WHY. It doesn't matter if your WHY is to pay your car payment or to quit your full time job and own your life. Nothing will help you achieve that goal faster and more efficiently than sponsoring others into your team.

Those you personally sponsor are called your FRONTLINE. You can have 1 consultant or 10,000 in your frontline. It depends on how many people you contact in your network. Jamberry Nails pays very well on the sales volume of your frontline. From the Senior Lead Consultant rank and higher, you make 12% on the commissionable sales volume of your frontline. The commissionable sales volume equals 65% of the retail volume.

You earn 30% - 40% on your own sales volume. You earn 12% on the commissionable sales volume of your frontline. Does that make your heart race? If not, then think about this: Every time you sponsor 4 new people into the business, you have more than doubled your own effort (more than doubled because you can't cut people in half for the sake of math). Four frontline consultants on your team is like having 2 of you working. You earn 30% of your own sales. And you earn 12% of 65% of the sales for everyone in your frontline.

If a sheet of nails retails for $15, you would earn $4.50 of commission on that sheet if you sold it personally. If a member of your frontline sells a sheet for $15, you would earn $1.17 (12% of 65% of $15) on that sheet. So if you have 4 frontline consultants selling a sheet of nails, you'd earn $4.68 total ($1.17 x 4).

So... if you sponsor 12 people in your frontline, you have basically multiplied your effort by 3. 12 people in your frontline is like having 4 of yourself: you plus 3 other yous (since 12 is really just 3 sets of 4). If you sponsor 24 people in your frontline, you have 7 yous growing your business. If you sponsor 48 people in your frontline, you have have 12 yous growing your business. Imagine cloning yourself 12 times and making commission on all 13 of you!

Now think of it in terms of parties. If you have a party with $300 in sales, you basically earn $90 (30% of 300). If 4 people in your frontline have $300 parties, you basically earn $93.60 (12% of 65% of 300 x 4 parties). See how those 4 frontline consultants gave you about the same results as if you had done 2 parties yourself? That's what we mean when we say you're being doubled for ever 4 people in your frontline.

Now expand the frontline just a bit. If you have 12 people in your frontline and they each have a $300 party, you will basically earn $281 from their parties (12% of 65% of 300 x 12 parties) in addition to the $90 you earned from your own. For you to personally achieve the same earnings by yourself, you'd have to personally do 3 parties! Can you see how multiplying your effort through your frontline is such an amazing way to create ongoing residual wealth?

Do you really want to get excited? The above numbers were just assuming 1 party for each of the 12 frontline people. Many people have more than one party a week, let alone in a month. What if those 12 frontline consultants each had 4 parties in the month? You'd now earn $420 for your own 4 parties (35% instead of 30% of 300 x 4). And you'd earn $1,123 for your frontline's parties (12% of 65% of 300 x 12 consultants x 4 parties each)! You'd have to personally do 11 parties to earn that by yourself!

Won't it be nice to get paid your normal commission on 15 parties while only having to do 4 of them yourself! Even if you worked your tail off and booked 15 parties a month (1 every other day), what would you do the next month? And the next? You just might run through your LIST, burn out quickly, and maybe tick off your family in the process. Or you could do your regular 4 parties AND earn the money from your 12 person frontline each doing their 4. And you thought you just wanted to sell and not sponsor!

Do you want to get even more excited? What if you sponsored enough people in your frontline that 12 of them truly duplicated your effort and sponsored 12 more people each under them? When you're at the level of making 12% off your frontline (which isn't that far up the ranks), you're also making 6-7% off your frontline's frontline (called your 2^nd level downline).

So you make 12% off the commissionable sales of your frontline (or 1^st level). And you make 7% off your 2^nd level downline. Now you have your effort being duplicated with every 4 people on your 1^st level down and every 7 people on your 2^nd level down. If each of your 12 best producing frontline had 12 more under them in their frontline, you'd be smoking it up big time! Let's run the numbers.

You're making $420 for your own 4 parties. And you're making $1,123 for your frontline's 4 parties. And you're making $7,862 for your 2^nd level's parties (12 frontline x 12 they each sponsored x 4 parties each x 7% of 65% of $300 per party)! You'd have to personally do 75 parties to earn that much. You'd be hard-pressed to even do that many parties by yourself in a month if you wanted to! And yet, with everyone working together as a team, each only doing 4 per month, you get these huge numbers. Think that sounds crazy?

If you sponsored at least 12 people who sponsored at least 12 people, you'd have an organization of over 144 people. That's nothing in network marketing circles! Now, do you want to get lose sleep every night until you're lying on a beach somewhere excited? Let's run some more numbers.

You make 12% off your frontline (your 1^st level). You make 7% off your frontline's frontline (your 2^nd level). You also make 3-5% off your frontline's frontline's frontline (your 3^rd level). What would it look like if the 12 you sponsored in turn sponsored 12 each who then went out and sponsored 12 each themselves? Well for one thing, you'd have a team of 1,728. Still a small team in network marketing circles.

So you're making $420 for your own 4 parties. And you're making $1,123 for your frontline's 4 parties. And you're making $7,862 for your 2^nd level's parties. AND you're now making $67,392 for your 3^rd level's parties (12 frontline x 12 they each sponsored x 12 they each sponsored x 4 parties each x 5% of 65% of $300 per party)! Added up, you've made $76,797! And next month is coming!!!!!

You'd have to do 731 parties to achieve this personally! That's 25 parties a day! This is the power of the numbers game we're playing! This is what you're building when you're out there on the road, heading to another party where you just might sign up another frontline consultant. How do you know if she might be the one who'll sign up 40? It's all in the numbers. And the numbers are all about the networking.

If you have 12 frontline in your 1^st level and they each sponsor 12, you will have 144 in your 2^nd level. And if those 144 each sponsor 12, you will have 1,728 people in your 3^rd level. That means you'll have at least 1,729 people on your team. And if each of those people did just 4 parties a month with $300 in sales, you'd be a millionaire in a year. And we've not even gotten into the nearly infinite commissions based on the total sales volume of every team manager in your downline (called generational overrides)!

You might have figured out by now that you could be pretty darn ecstatic with less than 12 sponsoring 12 sponsoring 12. And that's the point. If you got into this business thinking, “I'll just sign up to use the nails and sell a little to my friends,” you might want to rethink that!!!! This compensation plan isn't designed to pay you high rewards for personally doing tons of work. The compensation plan is designed to motivate you to sponsor others who will duplicate your work. And with each person doing a little, a lot is achieved! Retail. Recruit. Repeat. Until you're rich.

So sponsor that frontline! Become a sponsoring machine! But don't stop there. Invest in your frontline by helping them sponsor their frontline. By helping them, you'll make more. And don't stop there. By helping your frontline to sponsor their own frontline, you're training them to repeat the process and duplicate your work on down the line to an infinite number of levels. The beauty of our business is that we only profit when our partners do. Rather than rats racing like they do in white collar jobs or hamsters spinning wheels like they do in blue collar jobs, we work together as a team and earn a profit off the profit we help others earn.

We have seen how 1,728 people in your team doing one decent sized party per week could earn you $76,797 per month. There are hundreds of millions of people in the United States and Canada!! That's not that many people! This is why the LIST is so important. And the LIST of your frontline. And on down the line.

You might think these numbers are unrealistic. Where's all the money coming from? How can they pay that much out? Well, think of it this way: How many billions of dollars of products are sold through traditional stores every day? And how many people are employed by those stores making tens and hundreds of thousands and even millions of dollars each? And how many of the families of the owners of those stores are multi-billionaires? There's a lot of money in the world. And most of the money moves through the movement of products.

Network marketing is such an efficient way of doing business. It sounds too good to be true. But just imagine how the children of Sam Walton felt when he said he was taking his store national! Or international! Do you think maybe those midwestern children could grasp how much a billion dollars was back then? Now they all know what multiple billions feels like.

And it might feel really foreign to think that you could book a decent party every week and train enough other people to do the same thing on down a line and make thousands or even millions of dollars for it. But it's no less real than the empire that is Wal-Mart.
