He was specifically instructed by CEO, Roger Barnett to create a plan that rewards you, both when you help others achieve, as well as when you attain a greater rank. Many companies punish distributors for helping others attain a similar rank as you. He instructed them to avoid those common pitfalls.

In addition to having the lowest car qualification program at 5k points and a very lucrative compensation plan including fast start, power start, infinity and generational pay, they have instituted something remarkable.

It is called their fast track program. In addition to the compensation plan it is designed to help you make $100k within 15 months. In essence, as you achieve as little as 20k points and maintain qualification you will be awarded an additional $34k in extra bonuses. As well, you can achieve 5 trips including an all expenses paid trip, for up to 4 people, to Atlantis in the Bahamas. Plus another trip for 2 to Bora Bora. The fast track program offers you an incentive to help others accomplish these same results. When you personally help others do the same you will earn a matching bonus of $17k. How many people will you help?
