This unique compensation plan will make your Plexus Pink experience
PREDICTABLE, PROFITABLE, REWARDING and FUN!!
Here’s what to love about this plan...
If you are currently a Plexus Ambassador and want to see how this
plan deals with transferring you into the new plan and how it deals with
some of the features you had with the Binary Plan, please turn page 12 of
this presentation. All your questions are answered there.
The Basics
1
Emerald Pool: 3%
3% of the company’s gross product sales will go into this pool and will be re-
served for and paid out exclusively to Ambassadors who have achieved Emerald
status.
Diamond Pool: 2%
2% of the company’s gross product sales will go into this pool. Diamond status is
the pinnacle of achievement in the new Plexus rewards plan and will generously
reward those who have earned their share through personal effort and organiza-
tional support. Diamond qualified Ambassadors will also retain their share of the
Emerald Pool.
Note: If no Ambassadors qualify for Emerald and/or Diamond status the funds
from those pools will be included and paid out via the Ambassador Pool. This
guarantees that each month 50% of the company’s gross product sales will be
paid to the Ambassadors.
How to Qualify
In order to earn commissions and bonuses you must be qualified. Qualify by be-
ing current with your $9.95 monthly web-hosting fee and an activated monthly
conditional auto-ship for $100. The cancellation of either will result in a loss of in-
come (Fast Start Bonuses & commissions) until reinstated.
The value of a Pink Point will vary slightly each month based on the number of
Pink Points earned and the amount of money in the Ambassador Pool.
Based on the parameters of this new Plexus Com Plan and each qualified mem-
ber doing only the $100 minimum, it is estimated that the value of each point will
never be lower than $1.80. Of course, as personal volumes build through re-
tail sales and preferred customers, Pink Points will also increase in value.

Levels of Achievement in New Plexus Comp Plan
2.Ambassador – You are current with your monthly web-hosting fees and
have Conditional Auto-ship for $100 in place. As an Ambassador, you buy
products at wholesale, sponsor new Associates/Ambassadors and earn in-
come from Plexus. You earn 50% of Fast Start Bonuses (the other 50% will
be paid to your sponsor.) By personally sponsoring and maintaining 1 Ambas-
sador, you earn points on your level 1.
1
8.Diamond Ambassador -- Personally sponsor and maintain 10 Ambassad-
ors and have a minimum of 5,000 Pink Points per month. You receive a “Dia-
mond Ambassador” pin and share in the Diamond
Notes:
1.Personal qualification via monthly web-hosting and monthly conditional
auto-ship is required for all levels except Associate.
2.Gold, Ruby, Emerald and Diamond Ambassadors will have access to Lead-
ership Training and Training Materials. This Leadership Program is currently
being developed and is being designed to help Ambassadors at these levels
to grow their businesses dramatically.
2.Organizational Sponsoring
By assisting Ambassadors in your organization to sponsor new Ambassadors
you (and they) will be awarded 5 Pink Points (based on product purchase) for
every month the new Ambassador is qualified.
Each month, you will earn 5 Pink Points for every qualified Ambassador up to
5 compressed levels throughout your organization. Compression is achieved
by disregarding unqualified Ambassadors during the commission calculation
and counting ONLY the qualified members. This concentrates activity by elim-
inating unqualified positions and maximizes payout and your total Pink Points.
Further details are found towards the end of this document.

Everyone Sponsors 3 Ambassadors
Under this scenario, if you had sponsored 3 Ambassadors, you would be paid
5 levels down. As you can see, you would have a total of 363 Ambassadors
in the first 5 levels of your organization and you would earn 1815 Pink
Points.

as a separate transaction. That Fast Start Bonus will be paid out at the end of
the following week. (For details on the Welcome Pack please see “First Product
Order;” near the end of the comp plan presentation.)
Volume generated by the WP purchase does not go into the Ambassador, Emer-
ald or Diamond pools as that 50% is paid out as the FSB instead. Additionally, no
Pink Points are awarded for that month but will be awarded in the second and
subsequent months provided that the new Ambassador remains qualified.
Payout of the FSB is as follows:
1) If the sponsor has not yet achieved the level of Senior Ambassador, they will
earn 50% of the FSB, that is, $25 and the remaining $25 will roll up to the next
qualified Ambassador.
2) If the sponsor is a Senior Ambassador, they will earn the full $50 FSB and no
roll-up will occur.
In other words, all qualified Ambassadors are eligible to receive roll-up FS-
B's, however, only qualified Senior Ambassadors earn the full $50 FSB on
WP sales of their personally sponsored Ambassadors.
Note: An Ambassador can achieve Senior Ambassador by personally sponsoring
2 new qualified Ambassadors, or, upgrading 2 personally sponsored Associates
to Ambassador status. Associates do not count toward the rank of Senior Ambas-
sador.
4. Retail Sales Rewards
If you are retail oriented, perhaps you are a business owner or healthcare profes-
sional with existing clients/customers and you wish to become a Plexus Pink Am-
bassador, you can earn generously through the Retail Sales Rewards Program;
building a network is not required. Here’s how it works:
As an Ambassador you will have your own Plexus replicated website and be able
to purchase products at wholesale. You will be able to offer your retail customers
two options; purchase directly from you out of stock on hand, or, purchase on-line
through your Plexus website via credit card. Either way, all product purchase
made via your ID# create personal volume (PV). As your monthly PV builds so
does your retail sales reward percentages.
2
For example, if you are in a position to retail large volumes of product and order
100 jars of Breast Cream, you would generate $3,000 PV and at the end of the
month would be paid the following:
Of course, you also earn retail profit on retail sales you make directly from
stock-on-hand.
By purchasing Breast Cream in bulk for $30 and retailing for an average price of
$44.95, you would make an additional profit of $14.95 per jar.
Note: Funds for the Retail Sales Rewards are taken directly out of the Am-
bassador Pool and are not included in determining the value of a Pink
Point. However, because retail sales add to the total funds in the Ambas-
sador pool, they actually increase the value of Pink Points.
1
For clarification, if you sponsored that Ambassador who purchased $3,000 worth
of product in one month, you would earn 5 Pink Points for that Ambassador but,
you would also earn a Retail Bonus equal to 5% of the PV over $100 or 5% of
$2,900.
Retail Bonus of 5% of $2,900 = $145.
Note: Details of Preferred Customer Programs for other countries are currently
being developed and will be added to the program as soon as they are finalized.
Benefit #1: The wholesale volume created by their purchases is applied towards
your conditional auto-ship. Therefore, with 2 preferred customers you will only
need to make your personal product purchase ($40) in order to satisfy the condi-
2
tional auto-ship requirement as the remainder of the $100 requirement will be
covered by the purchases of your preferred customers.
Benefit #2: Whenever your personal and preferred customer purchases exceed
$100 for the month, you will receive retail rewards as described in the retail re-
wards section.
Benefit #3: Based on industry statistics, distributors (and companies) who have
a strong customer base enjoy long-term stability and income.
Benefit #4: As preferred customers share their product testimonials and create
interest in others, many will naturally want to join your network and become Am-
bassadors.
Benefit #1: Your personal product purchase of only $40 would qualify you each
month. That saves you $60.
Benefit #2 – you would earn an additional retail bonus of 15% on the amount in-
come over $101. Here’s how that would look:
Here’s another way to look at that: Your personal product is FREE every
month!! And, that should be your first goal – FREE PRODUCT!
Benefit #3: The more Preferred Customers you have, the more stable your busi-
ness. And, if you help the Ambassadors in your organization to do the same as
you have done, your entire organization enjoys stability. You can count on your
check coming and growing month after month after month.
1
Benefit #4: If every two months, one Preferred Customer decides to become a
Plexus Ambassador, your organization would be growing steadily and so would
your check! Furthermore, if every two months each of the Ambassadors in your
organization had one Preferred Customer decide to become an Ambassador, you
would see massive growth in your organization.
Everyone Sponsors 3
If you did just the minimum and only personally sponsored 3 Ambassadors and
everyone in your organization did the same thing, it would look like this:
And, as we have seen, if you were paid on all 5 levels, you would have 1815
Pink Points and would earn a minimum check of 1815 X $1.80 = $3267.
Everyone Sponsors 4
If you stretched yourself and personally sponsored 4 Ambassadors and everyone
in your organization took your lead and did the same, here’s how the numbers
would look.
2
4 256 1280
5 1024 5120
1364 6820
In this scenario, you would earn a minimum check of 6820 X $1.80 = $12,276
Everyone Sponsors 5
As you can see by the example above, just by everyone stretching themselves a
little, you income went up 4 times – from approximately $3,000 to $12,000.
We said that you one of the ways to build your business was to help others to
sponsor new Ambassadors.
Well, what would happen if you set the example by personally sponsoring 5 Am-
bassadors and worked with those in your organization and helped them do the
same? It would be well worth the effort. Look what happens:
If this was your organization, you would receive a minimum check for the month
for 19,525 X $1.80 = $35,145.
***************************************
1
When the new Plexus Comp Plan is officially launched, everyone (along with
their organization) will be transferred into the new comp plan automatically. This
transfer will be based on line of sponsorship and will be diligently followed.
Ambassadors that you’ve personally sponsored will appear on your first level.
Ambassadors that your personally sponsored Ambassadors have sponsored will
appear on your second level, etc. etc.
Payout Schedule
Under this new Plexus Comp Plan, commission checks will be paid out monthly
and will be issued approximately 7 business days after the end of the month.
Fast Start Bonuses will be paid weekly. (See below.)
2
First, any volume (points) in their Ambassadorship will roll up to the next qualified
Ambassador above them and be credited to that qualified Ambassador.
Second, during the commission calculation, their position will temporarily disap-
pear and the next qualified Ambassador will roll-up and take that position.
So, Ambassadors in your organization who are not qualified but who have quali-
fied Ambassadors underneath them will be ignored by the comp plan when it
comes to calculating commissions. The comp plan will simply move up or “com-
press” a qualified Ambassador and their Pink Points into the spot occupied by the
unqualified Ambassador. This will not affect the overall downline structure but will
ensure that you don’t lose income because an Ambassador in your organization
has failed to qualify for that month.
Banked Volume
Volume that is currently banked in the Binary Plan, cannot be transferred over to
the new Plexus Comp Plan. A number of options were investigated and none
were acceptable because they took money away from the bulk of Ambassadors.
With a guaranteed payout of 50% of gross product sales, our calculations indic-
ate that this will make for bigger checks to Ambassadors and will more than com-
pensate for what appears to be an initial loss.
Here’s the NEW FEATURE about the Conditional Auto-Ship Program: if you
have a minimum of $40 PV from personal purchases the new conditional Auto-
Ship program will purchase only enough product to make up the difference
between your present and required monthly PV.
For instance, if you have been purchasing one jar of cream yourself each month,
you would have $40 PV towards your monthly qualification. If by month’s end you
had no further purchases credited to your ID# the Conditional Auto-Ship program
would not execute a product purchase of $100, but rather, two more jars of
breast cream for $80 as that would fulfill the $100 monthly requirement.
1
Ambassadors can select any day of the month to be the date of their Conditional
Auto-Ship. However, because we are now with a monthly pay plan instead of a
weekly pay plan, we would recommend a date towards the end of each month.
When we transfer everyone into the new Plexus Comp Plan, we will make the
25th of the month as everyone’s auto-ship date. In this way, if there should be
some problem with an Ambassador’s credit card, there will be time to remedy the
problem before the end of the month.
Balancing Legs
The need to balance legs will not be a requirement of this new Plexus Comp
Plan. You will receive Pink Points for Qualified Ambassadors anywhere in your
organization within the levels you qualify for. If you are qualified to earn Pink
Points on your first three levels, all qualified Ambassadors within your first three
levels will earn you 5 Pink Points each.
The KNF price of BCK’s will be $30 and Plexus will provide the same 50%
matching gift. As before, the Ambassador will receive $5 for each BCK purchased
for $30 (bonuses are not paid on BCK matching gifts).
The $5 KNF bonus will be paid to the Ambassador first, leaving a balance of $25.
50% of that amount will be placed in the Ambassador Pools.
The Ambassador will be credited with that amount in sales volume and, as per
the new comp plan, the Ambassador will also be paid a Retail Sales Reward from
15% up to 25%, depending on the amount of the sale.
2
And, also in keeping with the new comp plan, the first Qualified Ambassador
above the Ambassador completing the KNF Sale will receive a Retail Bonus of
5%.
Note: the amounts of $534.50 and $125 will be deducted from the Ambassador
Pool before the value of a Pink Point is calculated for the month. Like other large
retail sales, a KNF sale will increase the value of a Pink Point for the month.
Only registered Plexus Pink Ambassadors in good standing are permitted to rep-
resent the company and its products. As an Ambassador, you may retail products
to individuals with whom you come into contact. However, there are restrictions
that apply to business owners with retail locations and wish to sell Plexus
products through that retail location.
Here is the rule of thumb: If your customers (clients, patients, etc.) come to your
place of business (or your practice) by way of an appointment, you may inventory
and sell Plexus products, and sponsor other Ambassadors, at that location.
1
However, if you are a retail location and your customers drop in “off the street” –
i.e. without an appointment – then, you are not permitted to display or sell Plexus
products via that location, but can operate as an individual according to the es-
tablished network marketing model.
This policy is designed for the benefit and protection of all Ambassadors and will
be strictly enforced.
Again, for the protection of the Ambassadors and the company, this policy will be
strictly enforced.
