Some ideas are just too profitable to go away – and the Wow Green compensation plan certainly demonstrates that. This plan involves talking all the people you can into selling the same things you’re selling, just like all the old programs from the 1970′s.
That’s right: the Wow Green compensation plan is about creating your own competition, and making your job even more difficult. Let’s not ask why exactly you would want to do that; let’s ask, instead, the underlying question: why does the Wow Green compensation plan want you to do that?
When you think about it, it’s really not difficult to understand. Wow Green doesn’t want to spend all the money – or do all the work – to promote the brand themselves. Instead, they want other people to do it. So their compensation plan, encourages you to go out there yourself and convince more people to put the Wow Green name in front of even more people.
Stop and think about that for a moment. The Wow Green compensation plan isn’t really that great, is it? It’s certainly a lot less than you’d pay to advertise a brand into market saturation – after all, they only pay out a percentage of your sales. They don’t have to pay you a thing until you sell some of their products, and even then, they’re paying you less than the products cost.
Isn’t that a fantastic idea? The Wow Green compensation plan actually expects YOU to pay for THEIR advertising, and go out looking for more people to do the same. You get to spend all the money and do all the work! That’s a fantastic idea!
Unless, of course, you’re… you. Then it seems like a pretty unfair thing to do. Why would you do that? Success isn’t a matter of promoting someone else’s brand. You’ll be watching your margins shrink and your profits disappear, and their brand will get stronger than ever on the shoulders of a teeming mass – fighting valiantly to carve out a bigger piece of a smaller pie. The Wow Green compensation plan quite ingeniously ensures that you take all the risk, and do all the work, until you give up altogether.
So don’t do it! Dump the Wow Green compensation plan’s idea, and concentrate on promoting yourself. It’s certainly just as easy to plug your own name, and the benefit ends up with you – not Wow Green. When Wow Green moves on, when eco-friendly cleaners lose their shine, when there’s just no more profit in that particular niche… you can hold onto your own well-known name, and use it to promote your next partner’s products.
You can feel good about promoting yourself. It’s the essential ingredient for a lifelong business – you need to promote and market yourself, not someone else, because using your time and money to promote other people’s companies is simply not how you survive in this industry. Put that effort into your own personal brand, and you’ll weather every fad that declines, building a network marketing business that truly lasts.
