Changing a network marketing compensation plan can be a significant undertaking, and there are several risks associated with such changes.
Network marketing compensation plans are complex, and altering them can impact the motivation and income of the network’s distributors. Here are some risks to consider and ways to manage them:
Distributor Resistance:
Distributors who have become accustomed to the existing compensation plan may resist changes, especially if they fear a potential decrease in earnings or loss of benefits. To manage this risk, involve distributors in the decision-making process and communicate the reasons for the changes clearly. Emphasise the long-term benefits of the new plan and how it can lead to sustainable growth.
Attrition of Distributors:
Significant changes to the compensation plan may lead to some distributors leaving the network. This could result in the loss of experienced and high-performing team members. To mitigate this risk, carefully analyse the impact of the changes on different segments of the distributor base and consider implementing transitional arrangements if needed.
Legal and Regulatory Compliance:
Network marketing companies operate in a complex legal and regulatory environment. Changing the compensation plan may introduce legal and compliance risks. Seek legal advice to ensure the proposed changes align with the laws and regulations governing network

Network Marketing And Crypto: How To Review The High Risk
by Team Business For Home • • 0 Comments
We at Business For Home are Hardcore Network Marketing Activists for over 15 years, and have an open mind for any opportunity with a compensation plan.
A Network Marketing compensation plan and a Crypto coin or token is a very high risk combination and for more than 10 years, hundreds of companies failed with it, if not 1,000+. Often with very bad actors in it, both at the corporate side as field leaders. We have not seen any success in the combination.
For years we noticed failure after failure, management on the run with investors funds, manipulation in the genealogy (tree) for the benefit of management (family members) or chosen leaders. Manipulation of the value of the coin at exchanges.
Money made in this field in the past are through recruitment commissions and very rarely because the value of the coin or token went up. We have no problem with top earners making millions, but crypto investors have other expectations.
“However, if done right with top management, top developers and top leaders, somebody might figure out, how to make it a big success.” – Ted Nuyten, CEO Business For Home.
