Converting from a VIP Customer to Brand Ambassador
How do I become a Brand Ambassador?
VIP Customers have a personalized referral link they can share. Once someone uses that link to place an order, the VIP Customer has the option to convert to a Brand Ambassador and earn commissions OR stay as a VIP Customer and earn a Product Credit.
Can I convert to a Brand Ambassador without a Customer referral purchase?
No. A Customer referral is required in order to be able to convert to a Brand Ambassador.
Is there a waiting period to convert from a VIP to a Brand Ambassador?
No. VIP Customers receive their referral link as soon as they join. They can immediately share their link and once someone places an order using their link, they can convert to a Brand Ambassador right away.
Once I successfully refer a new VIP Customer, how long do I have to decide if I want to Convert to a Brand Ambassador?
There is no time limit to convert to a Brand Ambassador once you have successfully referred a new VIP or Retail Customer. However, if a VIP Customer that you’ve referred converts to a Brand Ambassador and reaches the rank of Sr. Silver you have until the end of the following calendar month to convert and keep them as your Level 1 Brand Ambassador. Should you decide to stay as a VIP Customer, they will permanently become your Sponsor’s Level 1. Anyone they have referred, will be moved as well
Example: Amy is a VIP Customer. She refers her friend Jane as a VIP Customer. Jane starts referring and decides to convert to a Brand Ambassador. She reaches the rank of Sr. Silver in September and the rank becomes official in early October. Amy will have until the end of October to convert and keep Jane and Jane’s downline.
Is there a fee to convert from a VIP Customer to a Brand Ambassador?
No. Because the annual membership fee was paid as a VIP Customer, there is no fee to convert to a Brand Ambassador. Their annual fee however will be due on the anniversary date of when they became a VIP Customer.
How long does a VIP Customer have in order to convert to a Brand Ambassador and receive commissions instead of Product Credits?
Once a VIP Customer makes a successful referral, Product Credits are assigned to them on the Sunday following the referral. If the VIP Customer wishes to receive Commissions, they must convert to a Brand Ambassador by end of day (11:59 PM EST) on the following Saturday.
Example: Mary, a VIP Customer shares her referral link with her friend Susie. Susie uses the link to place an order on Wednesday. Mary must convert her account to a Brand Ambassador by close on business Saturday in order to receive commissions. If she does not, Product Credits will automatically be assigned.
