1. What is the New Volume Bonus, and how is it calculated?
The New Volume Bonus (NVB) is a bonus designed to reward Brand Partners for driving new business activity and generating new sales volume. You earn a percentage (determined by your Business Level) of the PV from personal purchases or sales made by new customers or team members within the first 4 weeks from their registration date.
NVB calculations and percentages can vary from market to market. Always consult your local Compensation Plan for the exact details on commission structures in your market.
2. Does the volume from new customers or team members count towards my Pay Line or Power Line?
No. You get rewarded for the volume from sales or personal purchases from personal customers and/or team members who are still within the first four weeks from enrolment with the New Volume Bonus (if you are a new Brand Partner yourself, meaning you’re still within your first four weeks from enrolment, your sponsor earns that New Volume Bonus until you reach Ultimate or reach the end of the four weeks).
However, from the moment your customers and/or team members are outside of their first four weeks, you start earning other commissions and their PV are added to your sponsor’s Pay Lines and Power Line for Base Commissions. These PV can also be added to your lines thanks to a feature called “Auto-Balance”, which automatically distributes that volume to maximise your base commissions.
3. Can I earn a higher New Volume Bonus if the new volume exceeds the initial threshold for my Business Level?
Yes, if the volume from your new customers and/or Brand Partners exceeds the PV you needed to achieve your current Business Level, you will earn NVB at the higher corresponding level. This is because the NVB is often tied to achieving certain thresholds or milestones, and exceeding those thresholds can unlock a higher bonus percentage.
4. How do my first four weeks impact my New Volume Bonus?
During your first 4 weeks from enrolment, the NVB goes to your Sponsor until a maximum of 1500 PV is achieved (corresponding to the highest business level Ultimate). This is because your first weeks’ volume will be used to determine your Business Level, which will then determine how much NVB you will be earning afterwards. The higher your Business Level, the higher the percentage of NVB you’ll earn!
NVB calculations and percentages can vary market to market. Always consult your local Compensation Plan for the exact details on commission structures in your market.
5. What happens to my New Volume Bonus if I upgrade my Business Level?
If you upgrade your Business Level, for example, during an incentive, you may become eligible for a higher NVB percentage. The new volume bonus will be paid to the highest business level reached.
