The Matrix With A Heart

So, we started this little team a few weeks ago to enable people to finally start earning money on the internet, with team support and team advertising, and most importantly with our philosophy of Paying It Forward. It soon became apparent however that not all people would be in a financial position to pay it forward for a personal referral at the time that the referral became available for them. But we are committed to the idea that people who spend their time advertising for the team, should also be able to have personal referrals. We had to find a solution.

Enter : THE MATRIX WITH A HEART

We have started our own 3x6 forced matrix. This matrix is a present from a team member to the team, and is being run by that member and by me. All profits made by the administration of the matrix are used as a fund to lend money to team members who need the finances to pay it forward for a personal referral, on condition the money is paid back when they get their first payment from the company. At the same time the matrix is already earning some of our members a profit and a lot of our members their money back. This will continue to improve when we open up the next stage of our plan, which at the moment we are working on.

Membership of the matrix is of course not compulsory, the fee is $4.00 per month, the compensation plan can be seen here.

A forced matrix is the ideal matrix structure for a team because although you do get 40 cents for personal referrals as a sign up bonus, the actual matrix fills from left to right and from top to bottom, so everyone will receive three sign ups before the matrix moves on and places three sign ups under the person who joined after them, and then returns to the left of the matrix and start the process again. People who normally cannot recruit are now finding that they are getting people placed below them as a consequence of team effort - which is of course the whole ethos of our team in the first place.

We work as a team, we earn as a team.

The members who are already in profit are saying that they will be using part of their profits to open further accounts below the people at the bottom, so that they too will be starting to build their down lines.

If you are not in the matrix yet, I would advise that you get in sooner rather than later, because we may well see a much increased growth in the matrix when part II of our plan starts, later this month or early April.

In the main program so far 20 people have now cycled out of their first bronze matrix, one person out of their third bronze matrix, several people out of their second bronze (which is not paid remember) and several members have one or two people in their first silver matrix. We are getting sign ups every day, and although there can be a delay whilst finding the next sponsor for a new member, most new members are happy to be with us. Of course there are always impatient types who become rude when writing to us, but hey, we will just let that slide because maybe they simply did not understand the truly unique nature of the team you have all become.

Keep rocking team, we are DOING it :)

Of Trials and Triumphs

Today we are in business for three whole weeks. Currently we have 64 signed up members and another three or possibly four waiting to sign up. Ten people have completed their first matrix, ten members have received matching bonus payments for their personal referrals' cycling and we are within a couple of new members (hopefully later today) for the 11th person in the group to cycle.

There are several people completing their second bronze matrix (unpaid) and some of us are in the third bronze and first silver matrix now. This will take a bit more to complete but the pay-out when it does come is much better (refer to other post in this blog)

There have been some trials.

The main one of these has been that a few times new sign-ups have not received their welcome emails and their referral links. This is terribly frustrating for the new member and for their sponsor, and has led to daily emails to 4x1 Support to get the issue sorted as soon as possible. I do not want people to 'drop down' in the matrix behind people who signed up after them - it is not fair on the person signing up and not fair on the sponsor either.

However, currently everyone who has signed up has their referral link and management at 4x1 are aware of the existence of our team and have promised full co-operation with us. They like what we are doing :) They have however asked that people open a Gmail account before they sign up, because many of the other providers do not reliably pass on the welcome email.

Other frustrations relate to communication. I have started a Ning for us all, and in theory all the information people need should be in there, but it should be read from start to finish, so that everyone knows where the advertising resources are, where to advertise their other opportunities, not to ever put URLs in chat but post them in the relevant section or send a pm to the member requesting the URL. At the moment I receive at least three or four emails every day from paid up members requesting information that is already freely available in the Ning.

Another trial was trying to marry up the new sign up with their sponsor, and organizing that the finance was sent to the new member so that they could sign up. This mainly relates to the different time zones we work in. That has now been sorted, and new members now are signed up directly from the sponsor's link by the sponsor him/herself. This has made the process much faster and smoother until now and I want to thank Claire for suggesting this new way of signing up.

Enough of the trials, what about the triumphs?

There have been triumphs:))

We have grown from three people to 64 people in exactly three weeks, i.e an average growth of 21 new members each week. There has not been a day yet when we have not received a sign up, and a couple of days we had seven or eight new people joining us.

Some people who have never been paid out of a matrix have been paid out, and I quote :

Hey Louise!!! Yes! I cycled, wow, its unbelievable, I actually cycled, for the very first time in a matrix I actually cycled!! Yipeee... ok ok, let me calm down. What do I do now?

We have a group of people who are working well together and are giving advice on the Ning and in the Skype chat-room. Some of you are staying up all night to deal with enquiries and help new members, you and I both know who you are, and it is much appreciated.

There is a real buzz when you talking with people on-line and helping them towards earning for the first time, or if not the first time, maybe faster than they have ever earned before.

The company has not missed a pay run since we started this group, and every Friday there is real excitement when people get paid directly into their AlertPay account.

I believe this team can grow and grow. I would like to see us all paid very quickly, but at the same time I am really happy with the rate at which we are growing. If we were to grow much faster, the administration might become a bit more of a trial, but I daresay we will deal with it as and when it happens.

I want to thank you all for being in this place with me and for making it work. Let's just keep on advertising advertising and then maybe some more advertising.

Thank you Fortune Team, you are great.
