Earning Potential
In a simple graphic, this is how Hefe works to reward you for your efforts.
Hefe pays out commissions every time money moves from the left to the right. From the person who hires the gig worker, to the person that works the gig. Each side of the transaction pays the worker and the agent instantly.
In this scenario above, the business needs some help that costs $300.
Because the agent has signed up both the business and worker to the Hefe platform, they are earning a commission from both sides of this transaction. This results in $7.50 to their pocket instantly. Now I know that $7.50 doesn’t sound very exciting, nor will make you rich instantly.
Let’s look at the big picture.
Each person and business you enroll has an annual and lifetime value. The amount of money you will perpetually earn as they work on the platform. In this graphic we are looking at a sample annual value of each person and company you enroll.
In our local market (please note your market will be different and likewise the numbers will be different), one businesses could generate up to $6,000 a year in passive income for the agent. That gig worker could net you an additional $900 each. And that $1,500? That is your agent referral network which we will get to shortly.
This is a volume game. We had to figured out the right balance between profit for you and bigger market. We could have increased the profits to a much bigger share as one greedy investor suggested. Which would have given you much more of that $300 that moved from the left to right. But by taking so much makes it harder for you to sell and even harder for anyone to adopt. Forcing them to do payments “off platform” in other words cash payments. Plus, it takes away from the story of being more fair.
Anyhow, let’s get back to the numbers.
The Volume Game
With more volume the numbers will start looking interesting for you.
In this example, 115 people in our local Northern California market, creates a very comfortable living. The only investment you made was sweat equity, the time you invested to enroll your local business and their workers onto the platform. Like I said, we don’t want a single penny from you, but at the same time you can’t expect us to give you free money for doing nothing. Sure that investment of time was a bit of work, learning the ropes, getting folks onboarded and using the app. But as you master your art of the deal, the speed you can sell more businesses, workers increase and volume grows. What took you hours before, now takes minutes.
Life Changing Potential
This is the point where is becomes life changing…
It is simple math, enroll more companies and workers, you win more. Now I have a tiny bit of heartburn talking about a single person earning that much money after everything I have already wrote. But it is to illustrate a point. There is no limits on your earning potential. If you work your butt off, get creative, this could be a reality for you. Of course, there is no guarantees in anything. This is purely up to you to achieve, or not.
Circling back to this example. Think of how many years it would take you to make $780,000? To earn that much in a single year, you’d need to make $375/hr in your normal job. Or if you worked every hour of every day of the year with no sleep, you’d need to make $90/hr to earn that much. Do you even make $90/hr right now? How about $375/hr?
The bigger question is what kind of good could you do this much money?
And let me remind you, signing up companies and workers is typically a one time event that pays back over time. Sometimes you may have to help them along in figuring out how to hire or work on the platform. Get them “unstuck” or get past a bad experience or bad luck with hiring the wrong person. But once enrolled and working, they generate passive income for you. From there you can work as hard as you want. Grow it as big as you want, or just keep it small and intimate. You are 100% in control of your life and your earning potential. This is what it means to be a partner. You make it whatever you want it to be.
Just in case you didn’t catch my references and disclosures everywhere. These numbers based on the area of California that we are currently running this app in. Other areas of the country will have different needs, different prices and results. What costs $200 in California may only cost $50 in Wyoming. This will of course impact your instant commissions. So you’ll need more volume to make up for the market differences to achieve the numbers above. Fortunately, you don’t need as much money to live in Wyoming as California. This is a simple numbers game. Nothing is guaranteed.
QUICK TIP. To be successful in your local market, you really need to focus on enrolling the hiring side first. No jobs and all workers equals no opportunity and no money for anyone. In most places, finding workers is much easier than finding jobs. Business can be very skeptical of anything that is different or changes things, so it can be challenging. Also, we have discovered that most hiring folks already have gig workers in their phone book. Makes it super simple to enroll both sides at once. You will need to keep this in mind as you build up your local market for Hefe. It is a balancing act. But we will cover more of these challenges shortly.
Referral Networks
So what about the referral network?
Yes, I promised I’d get back to this. Once you are successful, you’ll want to help friends and family become successful agents too. So why can’t you be rewarded with their success?
What had inspired us was that early on, we discovered that there were these super networkers that knew a ton of people that could sell others. You know, folks that once ran sales departments at dealers or retailers. We really wanted to reward those super networkers for playing a part in our expansion and growth. So going back to the $300 example from earlier. You as a master agent earn $1.50 off of that $300 transaction from one of the agents you referred. Again, it doesn’t sound like a lot, but the volume of transactions matters. If you had 50 downstream agents, you could be earning six figures for just signing folks up and possibly a little mentoring (over a cold one, hopefully). You earn, when they earn, automagically with no effort beyond that.
Please note: We currently limit super agents to 3 levels for various reasons. Also, this is not a MLM as we require no money, no inventory, no scams. We took the one thing they did right and put the scam part into a dumpster fire.
So this sound great, how do I start?
