3a. Sales Bonuses on Team Production – “Spread”
A “spread” sales bonus is earned when the recruiter of an agent who closes a transaction side has a higher Leader’s Contract than the agent’s commission split.
Example:– Sally recruits Tim
– Sally has a Leader’s Contract of 80%
– Tim has a commission split of 68%– When Tim closes a transaction, Sally earns a 12%
“spread” sales bonus

Sales Bonuses on Team Production – “Spread”
The “spread” continues throughout the entire hierarchy as long as a difference in the upline Leader’s Contract and the agent’s commission split exists.
Example:– Sally recruits Tim and Tim recruits Jerry
– Sally has a Leader’s Contract of 80%
– Tim has a Leader’s Contract of 74%
– Jerry has a commission split of 68%– When Jerry closes a transaction, Sally earns a 6%
“spread” sales bonus & Tim earns a 6% spread sales bonus.

3b. Sales Bonuses on Team Production – “Generation”
A “generation” is created when both the upline Team Leader and the agent have Leader Contracts of at least 65% (Sales Director).
Example:– Sally recruits Tim
– Sally has a Leader’s Contract of 80% – Tim has a Leader’s Contract of 65%– Tim is Sally’s first generation– Sally will earn a first generation sales bonus in
addition to a spread sales bonus on Tim’s production

Note: Tim only has to recruit 1 agent and have 1 closing (personal or Team) to advance to the Sales Director level. Then he will become Sally’s first generation.
Sales Bonuses on Team Production – “Generation”
The commission split of the agent closing a transaction is considered to be his/her Leader’s Contract on that particular transaction.Example:
– Sally recruits Tim and Tim recruits Jerry– Sally has a Leader’s Contract of 80% – Tim has a Leader’s Contract of 74%
– Jerry closes a transaction & has a 55% Leader’s Contract but a 68% commission split
– Jerry is considered to be Tim’s first generation & Sally’s second generation
– Both Sally & Jerry earn generation sales bonuses
