WakeUpNow: Software solutions for a better life

Income Disclosure Statement available at wakeupnow.com/ids All IBOs must maintain a minimum of seven retail customers

Welcome
Congratulations on joining WakeUpNow! WakeUpNows business model is built on the oldest type of advertising there is, wordof-mouth. Instead of buying advertising like television and radio ads, WakeUpNow pays commissions for referring others to its amazing products and services. It is important to understand that all commissions are based on the sale of products and services to end consumers. That is, to customers who purchase WakeUpNow products for their personal use. When you sign up as a distributor (Independent Business Owner or IBO), you have taken the first step to earning commissions. You dont earn commissions for recruiting other IBOs, but you can earn commissions whenever those IBOs or their customers buy productsand the more IBOs you bring in, the more products your organization can sell. As customers renew their product purchases, you can earn residual recurring income, just for helping someone else to live a better life. As with any business, there is no guarantee of results and your success will depend on your own hard work, leadership skill, talent, diligence and perseverance. This booklet will give you an understanding of the three factors that determine how WakeUpNow IBOs make money when they share products with others: the number of customers you sell to, how much those customers purchase each month, and your effectiveness in building a marketing organization that expands your customer base by including other IBOs. A brief summary version, entitled Compensation

Overview can be found in the Resources section of the HUB, or at wakeupnow.com/overview.

Requirements to Earn Commissions


The requirements to earn a commission in this home-based business are simple and straightforward. WakeUpNow pays three types of commission: Retail Payouts, Team Payouts and Supplemental Payouts. All payouts are calculated using the following criteria each month. 1. Are you a Qualified Independent Business Owner (IBO)? 2. Do you meet the customer, product sales volume and structural requirements to qualify for any particular payout? 3. Do you meet the ancillary requirements for any particular payout?

for personal use, which allows an IBO to achieve 90 PV is acceptable.

Relationship Types: Two Structures


IBO to Customer. The most common relationship an IBO has is to customers he or she has introduced to WakeUpNow and who have purchased products from WakeUpNow. Customers are always directly linked to the IBO who sold products to them. This is a vitally important relationship, but does not create the complex structures that can exist in in your marketing organization. IBOs are free to sell WakeUpNow products to as many retail customers as they like. Enrollment Structure vs. Sponsorship Structure.** Product purchases made within the structure of your marketing organization generate commissions for you. There are two structures to be concerned about which reflect two types of relationships between IBOs. These relationships are enrollment and sponsorship, and are created whenever a new IBO or customer enrolls. All Payouts are affected by these two relationships. The enroller or sponsor relationship is created when a new enrollee completes the sign up process. This is typically done by clicking sign up from the WakeUpNow website and filling out the form. The sign up requires the new enrollee to enter the IBO number of an enroller and a sponsor. Enroller When someone enrolls as a WakeUpNow IBO via your marketing website, your IBO number is automatically submitted as their enroller. They do not need to enter it during the sign up process. Essentially, enroller relationships are always frontline and there is no restriction on width, i.e., you

Qualified Independent Business Owner


You must participate in the program as an IBO in order to be eligible to receive commissions. By qualifying each month, you will maintain uninterrupted eligibility. Another way to describe this is to say that you are current in your eligibility by meeting the following criteria: 1. Be enrolled as an IBO. This requires agreeing to abide by the Policies and Procedures, accepting the Terms and Conditions, and providing accurate information required to send you payment, such as valid contact information and your SSN. No product purchase is necessary. 2. Achieve 90 Personal Volume (PV). PV is generated by selling WakeUpNow products. No product purchase is necessary. However, purchasing yourself is an acceptable method of generating PV. Any combination of products and services sold to customers or purchased

Purchase of WakeUpNows products and services by IBOs is entirely optional. No purchase of products or services are necessary to become an IBO, move up in rank, or to participate fully in the Compensation Plan.

can enroll as many IBOs as you want. Enrollment relationships impact the following commissions. Retail Payouts (page 12) Check Match (page 12) Sponsor By default your IBO number is also automatically submitted as the sponsor when IBOs sign up via your marketing website. If you would like to give enrollees the option to choose another IBO as their sponsor, you can turn on this feature of your website. You can also turn on

a Waiting Room feature that temporarily allows enrollees to sign up without creating a sponsor relationship. The Waiting Room allows you a short time to place enrollees where you choose within your organization. Note that enrollees are automatically sponsored to you if they are left in your Waiting Room three days after the end of the month. Both the Sponsor Field option during sign up and the Waiting Room are features you can access within the admin tools available in the HUB.

Enrollment Structure

Sponsor Structure

** References to enrollment and sponsorship are simply descriptive of the method of building ones organization, i.e., personally enrolling other participants into the plan as IBOs. This phrase is not intended to imply any connection between the act of enrollment and payment of compensation

Retail-Leadership Structure

Income Disclosure Statement available at wakeupnow.com/ids All IBOs must maintain a minimum of seven retail customers
Version 07.2013.002

To maximize the product sales in your marketing organization, it is often in your interest to be the sponsor for new enrollees, but there are reasons you may choose to sponsor a new enrollee to someone else. The Waiting Room allows you to accomplish this. Sponsorship relationships impact the Team Payouts (this page) Luxury Payouts (page 12) Check Match (i.e., the rank requirement only). You can view both structures and how each IBO in your organization is connected from within the HUB.

Retail Payouts
Retail Payouts, are paid from each qualified retail purchase made by you or your downline. Retail Payouts rely on the enrollment structure (see page 4).

Retail Purchases
When an IBO enrolled downline on your team, or a retail customer you enrolled makes a product purchase, it generates cash that gets paid to you. There are two kinds of Retail Payout: Personal Retail Commissions and Group Retail Commissions.
MARKETPLACE PURCHASES VACATION CLUB BOOKINGS
RETAIL SUBSCRIPTIONS

Commission Types
Commission payments are based on the requirements met at the close of the month. Commissions are typically paid on the 15th of the month following, or the next U.S. business day after the 15th. The remainder of this booklet outlines the particular requirements.

GROUP RETAIL COMMISSION

Personal Retail Commissions


Retail purchases, such as HUB subscriptions and some purchases from the Marketplace generate an immediate commission. The commission is a percentage of the purchase price (up to 40%). Personal Retail Commissions are

Income Disclosure Statement available at wakeupnow.com/ids All IBOs must maintain a minimum of seven retail customers
Version 07.2013.002

paid on sales you make personally, that is, you introduce and enroll the new customer.

Group Retail Commissions


A small portion of each retail purchase, down six generations, is paid to you as a Group Retail Commission.

Retail Purchases made within generations 26 will generate a Group Retail Commission of 10% of the GRCV. Founder 7 Group Retail Commissions get even better when you reach F7. For those who reach the rank of F7 and higher, and maintain 180 PV, ALL Retail Purchases in your downline contribute to your Group Retail Commission, except purchases where there are five or more IBOs who are a rank of F7 or higher between you and the customer making the retail purchase.

Calculations of Group Retail Commissions start with a Group Retail Commission Volume (GRCV). Because there are many types of Retail Purchase, not all have the same economics. For each type of Retail Purchase a GRCV is designated and used as the basis for calculating how much Group Retail Commission is paid and to whom. Retail Purchases made within the first generation, that is by IBOs enrolled to you, and by retail customers enrolled by you generate a Group Retail Commission of 25% of the GRCV. All IBOs are able to earn commissions on this generation even if they are not qualified with 90 PV.

Version 07.2013.002

Team Payouts
Team Payouts are tied to your rank, which is based on the size, sales volume and configuration of your sponsorship structure. To contribute to the sponsorship structure IBOs must be current, that is they have each achieved 90 PV via product sales. The three rank levels at WakeUpNow are Director, Founder, and Executive. Within these levels are the ranks that you may advance through as your marketing organization grows. Individual success is tied to your ability to help others be successful. As your team grows, you can advance through two levels of Team Payout, Director and Founder, plus you can qualify for special Leadership Overrides.

4 = 12) and you will have achieved the Founder level.

Founder Bonus
The first Founder rank is Founder 3 (F3). To reach the rank of Founder 3, you must be a current IBO and sponsor three lines with at least four current IBOs (who have each achieved 90 PV) in each. The B3H3G3 strategy will help you to become an F3 with the fewest number of IBOs sponsored.

Director Bonus
Director ranks are achieved by sponsoring new current IBO enrollees directly beneath you (this is called your front line). To reach the first Director level rank of Director 1 (D1), you must be a current IBO and sponsor one current IBO. To reach the rank of Director 2 (D2), you must be a current IBO and sponsor two current IBOs. Director 3 To reach Director 3 (D3), you must be a current IBO and directly sponsor three current IBOs (who have each achieved 90 PV). As a Director 3, you qualify to receive, the Director Bonus. The Director Bonus is $100 per month that you are a Director 3. All IBO team members downline from one of your front-line IBO enrollees form a line in your organization. When you have three lines with four current IBOs who have achieved 90 PV in each (3 An F3 no longer receives a Director Bonus, but instead receives the next level Team Payout, the Founder Bonus, which starts at $600 per month. We call this the 600 Club! Increasing Your Founder Bonus As you increase your Group Volume (GV), your Founder Bonus grows. GV is the Commissionable Volume (CV) generated by your entire marketing organization downline from you, i.e., your group. As an F3 you will already have a minimum GV of 1,170. If you increase your GV to 2,500, your Founder Bonus grows to $700 per month. At a GV of 5,000, your Founder Bonus goes up to $800 per month. And finally, if your sales volume drives your GV to at least 7,500, your Founder Bonus goes up to $1,000 per month.

GV must be somewhat balanced; for a detailed breakdown of minimum requirements refer to the chart

Line Maximum

The Founder Bonus above $600 is also subject to a Line Maximum of 50% (see chart). The Line Maximum is the highest GV that can be counted from any one line in your organization. For example, if you are an F3 and have 2,500 GV with 1,250 in one line, and 625 in each of your second and third lines, you would qualify to receive the $700 Founder Bonus because your largest line (at 1,250) is equal to 50% of the requirement or less. In contrast, if you had 4,000 GV in one line and 500 in each of the other

two, you would not qualify because 1,250 is the maximium that can be counted from any one line. Your GV total would be calculated as 1,250 + 500 + 500 = 2,250, which is less than the 2,500 GV required. Founder 4Founder 7 You can progress through the Founder ranks by adding lines with at least one D3 in them, and increasing your GV. Founder rank progression is Founder 3, 4, 5, 6, and finally Founder 7.

Leadership Overrides. The Leadership Overrides are comprised of two reserves. Up to 5% of total company CV is set aside in the Founder Override reserve, and up to 7.5% of total company CV is set aside in the Executive Override reserve.

The Founder Override then pays the corresponding amount per share to each IBO who has shares and is eligible, up to the maximum. Executive Override Up to an additional 7.5% of total worldwide company CV (from all product purchases) is reserved for IBOs in the Executive Ranks.

Supplemental Payouts
Luxury Payout
At the rank of F4, you can begin earning an extra Luxury Payout on top of your other commissions. The Luxury Payout is one way the WakeUpNow Compensation Plan is designed to improve the lives of each IBO as they grow their marketing organizations and drive increased product purchases. The chart below explains how this increases as your rank goes up.

The Luxury Payout is designed to reward you with Vacation Dollars for traveling, money for a luxury car, and time on a jet. Vacation Dollars can accrue up to three months, allowing you to maximize this bonus by taking a trip at least once each calendar quarter. This bonus is designed to help you add more travel to your lifestyle. Auto bonuses are paid toward the purchase or lease of a vehicle newer than 5 years old. Auto bonuses must be qualified for over three consecutive months before they are used each month and do not accrue. Both Vacation Dollars and Auto Bonuses require some verification and approval. IBOs can submit the approval request forms online or manually. Jet time is awarded beginning the first month it is qualified for and can be accrued for up to 12 months. The Luxury Payout is not retroactive and recipients must agree to the Luxury Payout Terms and Conditions. These payouts are paid to help you enjoy a lifestyle tied to your success with WakeUpNow and helping you spread that success to others.

Compensation Guide Glossary

An Active IBO is a person or entity enrolled as an IBO that purchases the IBO marketing suite (noncommissionable) on a monthly basis.

Compression means that IBOs who cancel or who are canceled because of inactivity or other reasons are replaced by those further down. Sponsor Structure compression happens each month of the 21st of the month. IBOs who have been inactive for three months, are automatically canceled and compressed out of the Sponsor Structure. WakeUpNow reserves 63.3% of its global commissionable volume to the WakeUpNow Compensation Plan. An IBO who was qualified with 90 PV at their last opportunity is said to be current.

Compensation Guide Glossary


Merchant Personal Volume (PV)
Businesses that are participating in WakeUpNows Scoophive service. Merchants are not registered as IBOs. Personal Volume refers to the commissionable sales volume generated by an individual IBO in a given month. You can generate personal sales volume in two ways: through sales made to retail customers and through purchasing products for personal use. Group Retail Commissions are calculated based on the Enrollment Structure. IBOs must meet qualifications as described in the Group Retail Commissions section of the Compensation Plan (see Group Retail Commissions on page 7 for details.) All Qualified WakeUpNow Retail Bonus products have a designated Group Retail Commission Volume (GRCV) assigned to calculate the Group Retail Commission. As a WakeUpNow IBO, you are a self-employed independent contractor. WakeUpNow does not take taxes or payroll withholdings out of your commissions. It is your responsibility to ensure that you seek appropriate tax advice and pay all appropriate taxes. An IBO who does not or no longer meets the requirements to be qualified. Unqualified IBOs do not receive commissions.
