It is any orders YOU make, as well as any orders your customers make. It is equal to the dollar value, or a little less than the dollar value of the product. This amount has to be at least 100 to be able to earn commission. And the great thing is that you get commission back on both your orders and your customers' orders!

We get paid on the amount OVER 100 PV. So if your order is 100 PV, and you have customers ordering 100 PV, your total commission would be 15% of that second 100 PV - or $15.

The exciting thing is that when you have PV of 500 or more, your percentage jumps to 25%. So if you order 100 PV and you have customers ordering 400 PV, your commission would be 25% of that 400 - or $100.

If your level 1 Ambassador has PV over 100, you receive 5% on their amount over 100, so if your Ambassador had PV of 200, you would receive $5.

Many of us feel a little overwhelmed at the generosity of Plexus in how they set this up! Looking at what other companies pay for marketing makes you realize it's not really all that unusual, though. One fast food place spent almost $300 million on advertising in 2013!

Many Ambassadors join just for the wholesale pricing. Many of the Plexus jewels started out that way!

Some of those "wholesale" Ambassadors don't order that bare minimum of 100 PV, so they don't receive any commission.

Did you know that if you are ordering just the Slim and ProBio 5, you could ask a friend if she would be interested in ordering just the ProBio 5, and your net commission with that little order would be a little over $5, enough to cover shipping on your next order?

OR you could just order every other month. If you went that route, you would save on shipping AND get back about $10 commission on your own orders.

We all love to save, and for those who are really into pinching pennies, $5 is worth a couple gallons of milk, or several dozen eggs. Or 5 pairs of flip flops at the Dollar Tree!
