Unit 8 - Getting paid & Maximizing your earnings
Check Time!
💰💰 Getting paid is an important part of the business, so let's take a look at how it works!
We have already gone over WHERE your money comes from (the different ranks, fast start/unilevel pay, the added bonuses, etc), but now we need to talk about HOW you get paid.
First let's start with the basics....when you enrolled in YL did you put in your SSN at sign up?
If you did NOT, you need to stop right here and go do that! YL needs your SSN to be able to send you a 1099 at the end of the year for tax purposes.
1. Log into your VO
2. Click on My Account, then My Profile
3. Add your SSN

Ok, now that thats done, bonuses and commissions are calculated within calendar months. For example, that means everything that is ordered in August will be calculated and paid out in September. Paychecks are currently paid out in the middle of the month (typically on the 18th of each month).
⭐ TIP: Sign up for direct deposit in your VO for instant access to your YL paycheck. Otherwise it will be shipped out by the 20th, meaning you should get it 7-10 days later!
⚠️ NOTE: If you have earned LESS THEN $25, YL will NOT send you a check. Your pay will be added to your account as an ACCOUNT CREDIT. You can use account credits toward anything (any product, shipping, tax, etc).
--//--
In order to get paid you will need to place a MINIMUM of a 50pv order in that month. A 50pv order will get you SOME of your commissions - it doesn't need to be on ER, but honestly its absolutely silly not to be!
If you would like to be paid on ALL commissions/bonuses possible you would need to place a 100pv ER order monthly. Below is a chart that explains what a 50pv month will get you VS a 100pv ER month 👇
**GUYS, I'm not sure if you caught this... but 100pv is ALL that you have to spend every month to get ALL possible commissions EVER!!!! 😮 That means even when you are a RCD making $100,000+ a month, all you need to spend is 100pv!! THATS INSANLEY AWESOME!
--//--
Now I know what you might be thinking, because I was too at first.... "I can't afford 100pv a month". 😮
Let's take that sentence right out of your vocabulary, YES YOU CAN! 👊💪
▪️Enroll 2 friends a month and there is your $100+ for your order!
▪️Ask friends and family to add a product to your order... Let's say that you have had a couple friends wanting to try some lavender. Two Lavender oils sold to them at retail cost is $63.82! That leaves just $36.18 left for your $100!
▪️Give up that Starbucks for a month.
▪️Sell some old stuff that you don't use anymore.
GUYS it is always doable if you truly want it!!!! There are ALWAYS options! So NO EXCUSES! If you want this, I KNOW that you will make it happen!!

CALCULATING YOUR PAYCHECK 💵
For now you should be able to look at your team and calculate what your paycheck will be based on what your team is purchasing (if you need help reach out to the person who added you to this group!) However, as your team grows, it is more difficult to calculate what you will earn.
I rely on an app called Oily Tools to calculate my paychecks. This app incurs a monthly fee of $6.99/month, but it can most likely be written off as a business expense! ⭐ As an Oily Tools member, I can gift you one month free to check it out. Send me a private PM if you want your free month (I would recommend this to Senior Star or above).

Essential rewards & why its a no brainer!
As a YL Leader, being on Essential Rewards is truly a no brainer! As we discussed in the previous post, you will need 100pv each month to be maximizing your pay, so it really makes the most sense for that 100pv to be on ER so you can get free gifts, promos, and points with that order!
The benefits of ER are explained below in the graphic and you can find more specifics here...

Another reason why ER is smart, other then for commission reasons, is that as a leader it is very important that you are being a product of the product! Using the products ensures that you have your own story to tell, your own testimonials! People buy from people they TRUST and if you are not using the products yourself but you are telling others to use them, it doesn't quite add up and people see through that.
