It is also of particular importance that we continue to add value and benefits to our Business Associates in effort to aid them in the business building process. Effective March 1, 2011, an additional means for Business Associates to achieve the different package titles, has been introduced. Below, please read the new rules carefully: ALL BAs must pay the eBiz kit annually and it must be paid on the exact annual renewal date. The annual renewal date can be found in your back office on the front page.
BRONZE To remain or become Bronze, you may either purchase a Bronze package or have accumulated 10 customer points, SILVER To remain or become Silver you may either purchase a Silver package or have accumulated 25 customer points, GOLD To remain or become Gold you may purchase a Gold package or have 50+ customer points. GOLD A – within 30 days only To remain at your current Gold A status or become Gold A you may either purchase a Gold package or have 50+ customer points within the first 30 days following your annual renewal date. Good news: If, at your renewal date, you have 10 customer points and later earn 25 customer points, you will, at any time, be upgraded to Silver, for reaching 50+ customer points, you will, at any time become Gold, (Gold A is only possible if within 30 days from renewal date), if your customer points fall below the qualifying point criteria, you will be downgraded to your new package title and organizational rank, if necessary. All upgrades or downgrades count from the date you qualify or disqualify. NOTE: If you qualify for an upgrade by points, you will not receive any additional Credits. Credits are only added upon purchase a package. Offer is valid from the annual renewal date ONLY and is not negotiable. If, at any time, you lose the required qualifying customer points, you will have 60 days from the exact date to requalify or you will lose the package title and potentially your rank as well. If you have a Bronze package based on 10 customer points, you may not upgrade to Gold or Gold A simply by paying for the higher level package. The only avenue for becoming Gold A is by paying for the Gold package within 30 days from the annual renewal date or by having 50+ customer pts within 30 days after renewal date. If a purchased package carries a higher rank than your rank by points, the package will always supersede earned points. However, if you purchase a Bronze package, because you require an inventory of Credits, and have a Gold or Gold A by earned points, you will remain Gold or Gold A. This also means that if you were to lose all customer points you would still have a Bronze package. All purchased packages are valid for one year. BAs renewing in March or April: BA's whose renewal date falls in March or April 2011 will still be required to submit payment for their ebiz kit by the renewal date listed in their back office. However, credit packages will be extended until May 1, 2011 so BA's have extra time to collect customer points or purchase a new credit package without losing their original rank/title within the organization.
