Dan and Andi (his daughter) leverage their vast experience with compensation plans to create a custom designed plan specific to your products, selling approach, and preferences:

bulletParty Plan
bulletMLM / 1-on-1 selling
bulletTraditional direct selling

What makes their compensation plan services unique for new startups:

bulletFixed fee service package - you are never billed for their time regardless of how much time you use
bulletTheir approach to plan design is based on industry-best practices that have proven successful time after time
bulletTraining is provided on basic compensation plan design principles and techniques so you better understand the "why" for each decision to be made
bulletA financial model of the plan is created that projects the plan's payout at maturity.  The financial model guides the entire design team in the process to make sure the plan is affordable in both the short-term and long-term. Without using such a model, many companies eventually fail when their compensation plans hit maturity and pay out much more than was expected. The financial model might save your company some day in the future!
