Forced Matrix

The forced matrix plan was developed to leverage the positive characteristics of both the binary and unilevel plans. The tree structure is defined by the number of recruits allowed in the front row of each member as well as how many levels deep the compensation plan pays out. A typical example would be a 5 x 5 matrix in which each member can have 5 recruits in their front line and earn 5 levels deep in their network.

The upside of this plan is spillover. If a member recruits six people, the sixth person is placed on their second level. This gives one of their members a recruit that they did not need to personally interact with. A highly active member who recruits 30 people could have 2 full levels and five people in their direct front line with a full level one. Sales volume from the downline members, regardless of whether they were placed or recruited, will result in upline commission. A member could, therefore, do very little and get paid very well. When you listen to people selling this plan you will hear them extolling the virtues of spillover and how fast the network grows. On the surface, this is very attractive and there is no doubt that it appeals to a lot of people. Read More
