NOTE:
To maximize the SFI compensation plan, you need to become multi-income
qualified.
To do so, you simply need to generate at least 10
SVP (Sales Volume Points) during the month. This can easily be
achieved with just ONE sale to a retail customer, friend, or
family member. Sales volume can also include personal purchases
from BuySFI.com (for personal
consumption or for resale). |

Each
time a sale is generated, the Seller earns a "Seller's
Commission" of 40% of CV
(Commission Volume).
Example:
If the CV of a product were $20, the Seller's Commission you
would earn would be $8.00 ($20 x 40% is $8.00).
Hence,
to determine the exact Seller's Commission you will earn on a
particular product, simply multiply the CV of the product by
40%.
Note
that Seller's Commissions are paid only on the initial sale.
That is, if the product sold has an ongoing, monthly cost
(such as an
IAHBE membership),
you would only earn the Seller's Commission on the first (initial)
month.

Each
time a sale is generated, so long as the Seller is
Multi-Income Qualified, the Seller earns a "MIQ Seller's
Commission" of 40% of CV
(Commission Volume). Note that this is in ADDITION TO the
Seller's Commission!
Example:
If the CV of a product were $20, the MIQ Seller's Commission
you would earn would be $8.00 ($20 x 40% is $8.00). Combined
with the Seller's
Commission,
which is also 40% of CV, it becomes a $16 commission for you!
To
determine the exact MIQ Seller's Commission you will earn on a
particular product, simply multiply the CV of the product by
40%.
Note
that MIQ Seller's Commissions are paid on EVERY sale,
including products with an ongoing, monthly cost (such as an
IAHBE membership).
Hence, on an
IAHBE membership, you would earn the MIQ Seller's Commission
every month that the membership you sold was renewed.

Every
month, 3% of all CV, company-wide (excluding first month sales),
is placed in our TOP 100 BONUS POOL.
If
you are one of SFI's 100 top sellers for the month, you will
receive 1 share of the TOP 100 BONUS POOL for each SVP earned.
Note that SVP eligible for the TOP 100 BONUS POOL is from NEW
sales only.
Our
Top 100 Sellers are also recognized in corporate newsletters,
etc. each month and can also qualify for SFI President's Club by
being amongst the Top 20.

When
affiliates whom you have personally referred to SFI start their
own Personal Powerlines, you earn "Bronze" 5% override
commissions on all CV in those
Powerlines if you are Multi-Income Qualified.
Example:
You have referred John to SFI. John builds a Powerline that has
$5000 CV this month. Because you referred John, you earn a $250
override (5% of $5000 CV = $250).
Note:
Once you advance to the rank of PTL (Powerline
Team Leader), you can increase your overrides to as high
as 20%! See Silver, Gold, and Platinum Overrides.

When
affiliates whom you have personally referred to SFI start their
own Personal Powerlines, you earn "Silver" 5% override
commissions on all CV in those
Powerlines if you are Powerline Team
Leader.
Example:
You have referred Mary to SFI. Mary builds a Powerline that has
$5000 CV this month. Because you referred Mary, you earn a $250
override (5% of $5000 CV = $250).
Note: Powerline Team Leaders ALSO earn the
5% Bronze overrides on this same CV. This means that your
override is actually a full 10% (in the above example: $500).
To
learn how you can increase your overrides to as high as 20%,
see Gold and Platinum Overrides.

GOLD
10% OVERRIDES
(Personal
Powerline Overrides)
You
earn 10% override commissions on all CV
in your Personal Powerline.
Note!
This applies to both affiliates who you have personally referred
to SFI as well as those who were referred by others.
Example:
You are a Powerline Team Leader. You
have 320 affiliates in your Personal Powerline who generate
$15,000 CV this month. You would earn a $1500 override ($15,000
CV x 10% = $1500).
Note:
Combine this override with the Platinum 10% Overrides you earn
on "Offshoot" Powerlines, and you can actually earn a
whopping 20% total!
Top |
When
affiliates in your Personal Powerline start their own Personal
Powerlines, you earn 10% override commissions on all CV
in those Powerlines.
Note!
This applies to both affiliates who you have personally referred
to SFI as well as those who were referred by others.
Example:
You are a Powerline Team Leader. Seven affiliates in your
Personal Powerline start their own Powerlines. These
"Offshoot" Powerlines generate $20,000 CV this month.
You would earn a $2000 override ($20,000 CV x 10% = $2000).
Note:
Combine this override with the Gold 10%
Overrides you earn on Powerlines started by your Personal
Referrals, and you can actually earn a whopping 20% total!

Every
month, 10% of all CV,
company-wide, is placed in our PTL (Powerline Team Leader) BONUS
POOL.
All
PTL's receive 1 share of the PTL BONUS POOL each month unless
you are a first-month PTL -- in which case you would earn this
month how ever many shares you have banked.
Refers
to banked shares in the PTL Bonus Pool. Every month, 10% of all
CV (Commission Volume), company-wide, is placed in our PTL Bonus
Pool. All Powerline Team Leader's receive 1 share of the PTL
Bonus Pool each month.
If
you are a first-month PTL however (an affiliate who has
qualified as PTL for the first time this month), you receive as
many shares from the pool that you have banked. You earn one
banked share for every month you are MIQ (Multi-Income
Qualified) prior to advancing to PTL status. Note! If at any
time you downgrade (lose your MIQ status), all banked shares are
voided. You can, however, begin earning banked shares again upon
resuming your MIQ status.

Every
month, 17% of all CV, company-wide (excluding first month
sales), is placed in our GL BONUS POOL.
All
Group Leaders receive 1 share of the GL BONUS POOL each month
for every 10 PTL's (Powerline Team Leaders) in their Personal
Powerline. Note: To count towards shares, the PTL's must be
PTL-qualified for a minimum of two months.
Additional
shares can be earned for developing Group Leaders within your
Group (1 additional share for every 3 personally-referred Group
Leaders).

To
qualify as an MIQ AFFILIATE, you simply need to generate at
least 10 SVP (Sales Volume Points) during the
month. This can easily be achieved with just ONE sale to a
retail customer, friend, or family member. Sales Volume can also
include a personal IAHBE
Membership or purchases
from BuySFI.com
(for personal consumption or for resale).
Non-MIQ
affiliates are eligible to earn only Seller's Commissions. But
as an MIQ Affiliate, you QUADRUPLE the income streams you can
earn from, including 40% MIQ Seller's Commissions and the Top
100 Bonus Pool.
MIQ
affiliates can earn residual ("do-the-work-once,
get-paid-forever") income, plus lucrative override
commissions on any Powerlines started by affiliates you
personally refer to SFI!

A
Powerline Team Leader is an affiliate who starts his or her own
Personal Powerline.
The
four qualifications for PTL are:
1.
You must be Multi-Income Qualified.
2.You
must account for a minimum of 40 SVP (Sales Volume Points)
each calendar month from a minimum of 4 customers. For
maximum earnings, these customers should be persons not
affiliated with SFI (retail customers). However, your four
customers may also include personally-referred SFI
affiliates (either in your Personal Powerline or in Parent
Powerline). Also, one of your four customers may be
yourself.
3.
Powerline Team Leaders are also required to actively support
all affiliates in their Personal Powerline. Leadership
income and benefits may be withheld if these requirements
are not met.
4.
You must complete SFI's brief online Leadership Survey each
month.
Note:
If you lose PTL qualifications, all affiliates who entered
into your Personal Powerline will be moved to your Parent
Powerline, and the PTL of your Parent Powerline becomes
their new PTL. You will still be on record as the Referrer
on any of your personally-referred affiliates (and will be
credited for and paid as such). Also note that once you meet
the PTL qualifications again, you may start a new Personal
Powerline again.
Top |
The
three qualifications for Group Leader are:
1.
You must meet all PTL (Powerline Team Leader)
qualifications.
2.
You must maintain a minimum of 10 PTL's (Powerline Team
Leaders) in your Personal Powerline. Note: To count
towards GL status, the PTL's must be PTL-qualified for a
minimum of two months.
3.
Group Leaders are also required to actively support all
affiliates in their Group. Leadership income and benefits
may be withheld if these requirements are not met.

A
percentage of the gross cost of every product in the SFI line is
"commissionable." That is, the portion that is
earmarked to be paid out as commissions to SFI affiliates.
The
amount of CV varies from product to product. Some products have
a very high CV (CV on SFI's top-selling product, memberships in
the International Association of Home Business Entrepreneurs, at
$20 is over 66% of the gross price for example). Other products,
especially third-party products and products that have high
fulfillment costs, have lesser CV amounts that can be paid out.
See www.sfimg.com/CV for a complete listing of all products and
their CV amounts.
To
determine the actual commission you will earn on a particular
product, simply take the percentage of CV attributed to that
income stream (as specified at www.sfimg.com/compplan/compplan.html)
and multiply it by the product's CV amount.
Example:
IAHBE has a CV of $20. The Seller's Commission is 40% of CV.
Hence, the Seller's Commission paid on a sale of an IAHBE
membership is $8.00 ($20 x 40% is $8.00).
Top
|
Every
product in the SFI line has an assigned SVP value. For example,
an IAHBE
membership is valued at
10 SVP, AdvantaChoice Pro Internet Service has a 2 SVP value,
Veriuni Liquid Nutrition is valued at 5 SVP, etc.
Multi-Income
Qualification can be met with the sale and/or purchase of any
combination of any SFI products totaling at least 10 SVP.
