SForevergreen Compensation PlanThe ForeverGreen Compensation Plan is a global plan designed to generously compensate Members, beating the average industry payout on commissionable volume.

Our weekly pay plan and low monthly volume requirements simplify the effort it takes to be rewarded for your business building efforts, quickly and handsomely.

Before we begin, let’s get familiar with some basic terms and concepts. These will help you better understand the different aspects of the ForeverGreen Compensation Plan.

MEMBER Members include anyone who joins ForeverGreen by paying a membership fee and agreeing to the Forever-Green Policies and Procedures. Members have exclusive responsibilities and benefits, such as special Member (wholesale) pricing and the opportunity to participate in the ForeverGreen compensation plan. The size of a Member’s business, network, and/or income will directly correspond to the Member’s personal efforts and results.

CUSTOMER A person who buys ForeverGreen product directly from a ForeverGreen Member at retail price is considered a customer. At this time, he or she is not interested in becoming a Member of ForeverGreen—they only want to benefit from ForeverGreen products. Any referrals from customers are directed to their respective ForeverGreen Member.

AUTOSHIP Autoship is a recurring-order program that ensures Members or customers receive their favorite products automatically, every four periods. Autoships can be modified or canceled anytime.

PEM (PERSONALLY ENROLLED MEMBER) People you’ve personally enrolled in ForeverGreen are your personally enrolled Members, or PEMs for short. Other names for PEMs may also include “first level” or “front line” Members.

UPLINE Every Member has an Enroller. Your Enroller has an Enroller, and they have an Enroller, and so on. We refer to them all together as your upline. They are all there to support you. Reach out to them and benefit from their expertise!

ENROLLMENT TREEEnsures your organization is structurally strong. The Enrollment Tree, or “Downline”, is the group of Members whom you have personally enrolled. Every Member you personally enroll is on your “first level”. Their personally enrolled Members then become your “second level”, and so on. There is no limit to the number of Members per level you can have in your Enrollment Tree. Your Enroll-ment Tree will determine your rank and your maximum Team Bonus payout.

ENROLLER This is the person who first introduced you to the ForeverGreen business. Enrollers are responsible for making sure all of their personally enrolled Members (PEM) receive adequate training and support. Enrollers should also understand the goals of his/ her personally enrolled Members to better provide the support they need.

PLACEMENT TREEGrows your commissions. All the Members that make up your Enrollment Tree are also placed into a two-legged (or binary) structure called your Placement Tree. However, your Placement Tree may also include Members not in your enrollment tree, but who were enrolled by your upline. The two-legs in your Placement Tree are known as your “right leg” or your “left leg”. The larger of the two is your “big” or “power” leg. The smaller of the two is your “small” or “lesser” leg. Your smaller leg is sometimes also referred to as your “pay” leg.

VOLUME In addition to having both a Member and Retail price, each item available for purchase is associated with points also known as “volume”. The amount of volume in your organization will determine your commissions earnings. A product’s volume is represented most often as QV/CV. Unless otherwise specified, QV and CV are the same amount. QV: This stands for Qualifying Volume. It helps you meet certain requirements such as rank and qualifications status throughout the compensation plan. CV: This stands for Commissionable Volume. This is the actual amount to be applied to percentages throughout the compensation plan and will ultimately determine commission payout.

RANK As you perform certain actions and meet certain volume requirements, you are awarded titles that indicate differ-ent levels of success. These levels are referred to as ranks.

Ranks at ForeverGreen, listed from lowest to highest, are Member, Starter, Starter Plus, 1-Star, 2-Star, 3-Star, 4-Star, 5-Star, 6-Star, 7-Star, All-Star and Hall of Fame.

HOW DO I EARN BONUSES? To be qualified to earn bonuses in the compensation plan, you must have a personal volume of at least 50 QV (the bare minimum to be considered “active”) for a total of four, week-long periods (the week in which you place the order, plus three more weeks). However, if you have a personal order of 100 QV, you will be considered “fully qualified” for the same four weeks. Members who are fully qualified have the potential to earn higher commissions as part of this plan. Any personal volume that exceeds 100 QV will count toward your Enrollment Tree volume and may help you rank advance.

HOW OFTEN WILL I GET PAID? Commissions are processed weekly at the end of every seven-day period. Each period begins on Tuesday at 12:00 a.m. U.S. Mountain Time and ends on Monday at 11:59 p.m. U.S. Mountain Time.

Commission calculations are finalized and posted the Friday following the close of the period. Payments are made early the following week; 5 to 7 business days following the end of the commission period, or 1 to 3 business days after commissions are posted. Speed of payment will depend on your selected payment method, which can be changed in your web office account settings.

NWhen you share ForeverGreen products with custom-ers, you earn the difference between the retail price and member price of each product. Retail customers must order products through your replicated site for you to earn this bonus.

The QV/CV associated with retail customer purchases will count toward your personal qualification up to 100QV. Any excess volume will count toward your rank qualification as an extra leg in your Enrollment Tree. It will also count toward your pay leg in your Placement Tree for Team Bonus earnings.

Similar to the Retail Bonus (Customer), when you share ForeverGreen’s products AND business opportunity, gaining a new member, you still earn the difference between the retail price and member price on their initial order, which is purchased at retail price. However, the QV/CV associated with this purchase will be for your new member so that they can participate on the comp plan as well.

4 Team BonusBuild both of your Placement Tree legs. When you’re fully qualified with a personal volume of 100QV, you can earn 12% of your pay leg’s CV for that week. If you’re active with less than 100QV, but more than 50QV, you can earn 8% of your pay leg’s CV. This Team Bonus will pay up to $20,000 per week.

Requirements to earn Team Bonuses: • You must have at least one active PEM in your left leg, and one active PEM in your right leg.• You must have a minimum of 100CV in your pay leg for the week.

When the team bonus is paid for the CV on the small leg, the amount of CV paid on the small leg will be discounted from the big leg for the new weekly period. This is called carryover..

Any unpaid volume from your pay leg in the current period carries forward into the next period for up to 500CV, or the amount of the new CV that period (whichever is greater). Failing to maintain a minimum personal active order of 50QV or more cancels this carryover and resets both legs to zero volume in the new period.
