The theme of this year’s International Convention was “Converting Spending Into Earning.” Putting this concept into action is accomplished by each UnFranchise^® Owner (UFO) creating a Market America Shopping Annuity^®. The Shopping Annuity is the very essence of the UnFranchise Business Development System. Build a Shopping Annuity with ease by:

1. Changing the brands of products you are currently buying every four to 12 weeks for your household to ma^®-branded products.
2. Changing how your household buys all other products every month, quarter, occasion or season from “brick-and-mortar” establishments to “click and order” through your SHOP.COM website.
3. Identifying 10-15 customers to do the exact same thing (Steps 1 and 2 above).
4. Identify two (2) or more individuals committed to improving their financial situation by performing these same four (4) actions.

To that end, Market America is launching the “Shopping Annuity Bonus Pool” on Oct. 1, 2014, which will then run each calendar quarter. This new quarterly bonus pool will replace the previous Advertising Bonus Pool. The Shopping Annuity Bonus Pool criteria that must be met by each qualifying UFO to receive the bonus BV and IBV are in alignment with converting spending into earning and creating an ongoing regeneration of BV and IBV. By contributing up to 10 million BV and 5 million IBV per quarter to the pool, it is JR Ridinger’s goal to inspire each UFO to focus on creating a Shopping Annuity, as well as to encourage and assist each UFO within their organization to do the same. To qualify and be awarded bonus BV and IBV, a UFO must satisfy/complete the following five (5) criteria between Oct. 1, 2014 and Dec. 31, 2014.

Shopping Annuity Bonus Pool Criteria

1. Complete the Shopping Annuity Assessment. (Coming Soon!)
2. Complete the Online Shopping/Home Advisor during the respective bonus pool calendar quarter. (Previous completion will not count).
3. Download, install, log in to and use ShopBuddy on your computer. (Previous install and login will count).
4. Order > 1,500 BV worth of Home Country products with the qualifying UFO being the Paying ID(nine-digit UnFranchise ID) for all orders between 10/1/2014 – 12/31/2014.
5. Accumulate > US$3,000.00 (CAN$3,278.00) in Partner Store (partner, OneCart Direct) Home Country orders between 10/1/2014 – 12/31/2014 with the following breakdown:
   • First > US$1,500.00* (CAN$1,639.00*) in purchases with the qualifying UFO’s Personal Preferred Customer ID (seven-digit number) being the paying ID.
   • Second, the remaining balance of the US$3,000.00 (CAN$3,278.00) total for the respective quarter may be made up from purchases made by your registered Preferred Customers, or yourself.

Note: All returns will be deducted and reconciled against totals.

*All Orders in excess of the US$1,500.00 (CAN$1,639.00) criteria made by the qualifying UFO will roll over toward next quarter’s Shopping Annuity Bonus Pool, PROVIDED that the UFO met all five bonus pool criteria.

Satisfying all five of these Shopping Annuity Bonus Pool criteria will create bonus BV and IBV, which will be awarded to the qualifying UFO. Remember, all awarded Shopping Annuity Bonus Volume may be assigned according to downline placement policy. This will result in a significant compounding cumulative result for all UFOs qualifying for the pool.

Extra Bonuses to the Shopping Annuity Bonus Pool!

• If you qualify for the bonus pool, you will also automatically earn an additional 50 BV and 25 IBV for each personally sponsored UFO who qualifies as well.
• In addition, if you qualify for the bonus pool and have 10 UFOs in your left organization and 10 in your right organization of a BDC who qualify for the bonus pool, that BDC will be eligible to earn an additional US$600.00 (CAN$656.00) bonus in the IBV compensation plan (same rules as the BV bonus) for the next 12 weeks. This bonus is per BDC, so multiple BDCs are eligible for the IBV bonus. Note: The 12-week period will start the first week bonus BV and IBV are awarded.

All UFOs qualifying for the Shopping Annuity Bonus Pool will be eligible to accrue all awarded bonus BV and IBV generated and/or placed within their organization.

Organize and mobilize your teams for massive action. The BV and IBV created will be enormous to those organizations that prepare and act! The fourth quarter of 2014 (10/1/2014 – 12/31/2014) and the gift-giving holiday season is fast approaching. Take advantage of this incredible opportunity now!
