The specific program I decided to join is called Isagenix<\/a>.\u00a0 Isagenix is an ecommerce site that sells health supplements.\u00a0 Specifically, they sell health supplements promoting body cleansing, anti-aging, and weight loss.\u00a0 Here is their official slogan: Isagenix: World Leader in Whole-Body Nutritional Cleansing, Cellular Replenishing & Youthful Aging.<\/p>\n So, why Isagenix?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n There are 4 primary reasons why I decided to join Isagenix.<\/p>\n To make the big bucks in MLM, you need to recruit people under you.\u00a0 As your referrals generate sales, you earn credit for their sales.\u00a0 As your referrals recruit more people, and those 2nd-tier referrals make sales, you earn credit for their sales, as well.\u00a0 Simple and intuitive enough.<\/p>\n For most MLM programs, the further removed you are from the referral (e.g. 2nd tier, 3rd tier, etc.), the more diminished the credit you receive for his or her sales. For instance, you may receive 100% credit for sales from your direct referrals, 50% credit for sales from 2nd tier referrals, 25% for 3rd tier, 10% for 4th, 0% for 5th tier and beyond.<\/p>\n For Isagenix, you receive 100% credit for all referrals. regardless of the depth<\/span>.\u00a0 For instance, even it’s the 10th-tier of referrals, you will still receive 100% credit for his or her sales.\u00a0 To me, this is unheard of.\u00a0 Have you heard any referral compensation programs this generous?<\/p>\n It gets even better.<\/p>\n You build your referral base in this 2-legged<\/span> pyramid structure.\u00a0 Take a look at the diagram taken from their compensation manual<\/a>.<\/p>\n What this means is that only a maximum<\/span> of 2 direct referrals go directly below you (in the diagram).\u00a0 So, what does this mean?\u00a0 Let’s say you make 3 direct referrals right off the bat.\u00a0 That means your 3rd direct referral will go under one of your first direct referrals.\u00a0 What does that really mean?\u00a0 That means one of your direct referrals already has an associate under him or her without doing any work.<\/p>\n Now, what does that really really<\/em> mean?\u00a0 It means that your referral base grows not only<\/span> from your referrals making referrals (and those referrals making referrals, etc.), BUT it also grows from your referrer (and your referrer’s referrer, etc.) making referrals.\u00a0 Take a look at the picture above again.\u00a0 The dark green circles are your direct referrals.\u00a0 The light green circles are made by your referrers.\u00a0 In fact, let’s look at a real life example — myself.\u00a0 I enrolled with Isagenix under my friend almost 2 months ago.\u00a0 Up until this blog post, I haven’t done anything remotely related to Isagenix.\u00a0 Yet, I already have 2 associates under my tree.\u00a0 One of them is already making sales.\u00a0 How did I get these associates?\u00a0 These are new referrals that my referrer (Steve) made.<\/p>\n Don’t worry if this sounds confusing.\u00a0 Take the time to watch the video below, which much more clearly explains the compensation and referral program.<\/p>\n [flv image=”https:\/\/jensmith-training.com\/images\/stories\/JenCompPlan.jpg”]https:\/\/jensmith-training.com\/images\/stories\/videos\/Compensation Plan.mp4[\/flv]<\/p>\n If you would to enroll in Isagenix under me, just go here<\/a>.\u00a0 There is a $19\/annual fee.\u00a0 I recommend joining as soon as possible, so that you will start amassing my future referrals, Steve’s future referrals, and Steve’s referrer’s future referrals.<\/p>\n What’s my strategy?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n In short, my strategy is to generate sales via SEO.\u00a0 I will treat this as if I am promoting a CPA.\u00a0 Since the health products and nutrition markets are so huge, there are countless Low and Medium competition keywords you can find on Google AdWords Keyword Tool<\/a> that yield a ton of local exact match searches.\u00a0 For this case study, I will not be sharing my exact keywords–but, I will share performance statistics.<\/p>\n But, first, I would need a site and landing page(s) right?\u00a0 As alluded to earlier, that is all taken care of.\u00a0 Each Isagenix Associate receives an out of the box website.\u00a0 Here’s mine: www4.isagenix.com<\/a>.\u00a0 For your site, you specify the subdomain.\u00a0 I chose something inconspicuous — “www4.”<\/p>\n I will be conducting SEO to rank for specific product pages (i.e. inner pages) on my Isagenix site.\u00a0 I will delve into the specifics of SEO a bit later.<\/p>\n What about autopilot megasites?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n True.\u00a0 If you’ve read my other blog posts, my specialty is in building autopilot megasites that leverage long tail SEO (e.g. my 300K site<\/a>).\u00a0 Therefore, I have decided to create a sister site to my Isagenix site.\u00a0 The purpose of this second site is to rank for thousands of long tail keywords and funnel visitors to my Isagenix site.<\/p>\n This second site will be focused on nutrition facts and antioxidants.\u00a0 I will base it off the free food and nutrition facts database that I wrote about in a previous article<\/a>.\u00a0 This site has not yet been created as of the start of this case study (11\/26).\u00a0 Once the site is created, I will post an update to this article with the exact domain name.\u00a0 I will also be sharing Google Analytics stats.<\/p>\n The Tactical SEO Plan<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Here are the details to my SEO strategy.\u00a0 As I progress in the execution of these steps, I will post updates to this case study article.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 12\/1\/2011 (early AM) Update<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n 12\/11\/2011<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Alright, time to get down to work… updates to come…<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Okay, I haven’t tended to this blog in a while.\u00a0 So, why not re-ignite things with a new live case study?
