The present invention operates as follows. The member registration means (130, 151) ranks and registers the members, and the privilege giving means (140) ranks the member when the person introduced by the member purchases a predetermined product. The privilege according to is granted. In this way, since the size of the privilege for introducing a member is made different according to the rank of the member, it is possible to motivate the member to rank up and to introduce a new member.

When registering a new member, the member registration means (130, 131) checks whether or not the member has already been introduced, and rejects the registration of the new member if there is no introduction. As a result, it is possible to join the membership without introducing a trusted member and to build trust in the association.

When one member satisfies a predetermined condition regarding introduction of a new member, the member who ranks up the member can motivate the member to achieve the condition. For example, the member registration means (131) registers the newly registered member as a member who reports directly to the introducer member and has the lowest rank. Rank up means (132)
When the number of members directly belonging to one member and having the same rank as the one member exceeds a predetermined number, the rank of the previous one member is increased by one rank if it is not the highest rank. As a result, each member develops members of the same rank who report directly to himself, and the introduction activity of new members is activated in a chain.

In the case that the total sales amount of one member, its subordinates, and their introducers is more than the standard amount in the past certain period of time is an important matter for ranking up, the number of introduced people is large, but purchase Rank up can be prevented when the amount is small.

When the person introduced by one member purchases a product, the member who is the introducer and the members of higher ranks who have this member as a subordinate depend on their respective ranks and the purchase amount of the person introduced earlier. Awards special benefits. As a result, a person with a higher rank can obtain a privilege even when a person introduced by a subordinate member purchases a product, and can further motivate the person to rank up.

When the person introduced by a member introduced by a member lower in rank than the member who introduced the member purchases the product, the amount of privilege given to the member when the member introduced the product is purchased. Set based on the total amount of benefits granted to members of the rank below the first member. For example, when a person introduced by the second lowest rank member purchases a product, when a person introduced by the lowest rank member purchases the product, it is given to the lowest rank member. The total of the award and the award given to the member of the second lowest rank from which this member is subordinate is given.

In this way, the maximum value of the total benefits granted is limited to a certain value or less, regardless of the rank of the member who introduced the product. In other words, the total of the benefits granted by the person introduced by the member of the lowest rank belonging to the person of the highest rank will be the maximum,
No matter what rank you introduce, the total benefits granted will not exceed this.

[0023] A member who is under the control of one member or a member who is under the control of one member and a person introduced by the member under the control of one member are given a bonus privilege according to the amount of money purchased in a predetermined period in the past. With such things, it is possible to further motivate purchase and introduction motivation.

More specifically, a predetermined number of members directly belonging to one member and having the same rank as the preceding one member are trained, and when the purchase amount condition is satisfied, the member is ranked up. However, the top-ranked members will not be upgraded any further. For example, the special contractor ranks up three members who report directly to himself as a special contractor, and thereby himself / herself ranks up as a proxy contractor.

Each member forms his own organization. A self-organization is a set of members whose subordinates are self-organized. For example, if the introducer of self A becomes member B and the person further introduced by member B becomes member C, the organization of member A must be composed of members A, B, and C. become.

Members can obtain benefits according to their ranks, and the higher the rank, the larger the benefits can be acquired.

And has the respective functions of the rank-up management unit 132 that manages the rank-up of members. When registering a new member, the new registration unit 131 checks the presence or absence of an introducer of an existing member, and rejects registration of a new member if a trusted member is not introduced. Also, a record for a new member is added to the member database 151. At this time, the member of the introducer is registered as a direct parent member, and the new member is registered as a direct child member in the member information of the parent member.
In addition, the rank of the new member is registered as the lowest "general member".

The rank-up management unit 132 checks, with respect to a member who wants to be ranked up, whether or not the member satisfies the rank-up condition, and if the condition is satisfied, the rank of the member is increased by one rank. Fulfill. Specifically, the rank of the member registered in the member database 151 is updated so as to be increased by one.

It shows the rate of referral fees (referral commission), the rate of bonus benefits, and the amount of benefits each member receives when the introduced person purchases a product worth the regular price of 30,000 yen.

FIG. 3 shows how the introduction fee and the bonus privilege are given. When a person introduced by a general member purchases a product, 5% of the purchase amount is given as a privilege to the general member who is a direct introducer. When this general member has a parent member of a higher rank, 10% of the purchase amount is given to each parent member as a privilege. In other words, 10% of the parent member's special contractor, and if the special member has a parent member's proxy contractor, the proxy contractor will be provided with a 10% referral fee and a 2% bonus privilege. It If this proxy contractor has a general proxy contractor of a parent member, the general proxy contractor will be provided with a 10% referral fee and a 3% bonus privilege.

When the person introduced by the special contractor purchases the product, the special contractor who is the direct introducer pays 15
% Is given as a privilege. This 15% corresponds to the sum of 5% given to the general member when the general member introduces the purchaser and 10% given to the special contractor of the parent member.

If this proxy contractor has a general proxy contractor of a parent member, the general proxy contractor will be provided with a 10% referral fee and a 3% bonus privilege.

When the person introduced by the proxy contractor purchases a product, the purchase price is set to 25
% Will be granted as a referral fee and 2% as a bonus benefit. 25% of the referral fee will be given to the general member when the general member introduces the purchaser, 5% to the general member's special contractor and 10% to the parent member's proxy contractor.

% Bonus benefit is granted.

When the person introduced by the general agent contractor purchases a product, 35% of the purchase amount is given as an introduction fee and 3% is given as a bonus privilege to the general agent contractor who is a direct introducer. 35% of the referral fee will be given to the general member when the general member introduces the purchaser, 5% to the special member contractor of the parent member, and to the proxy contractor of the parent member. It is equivalent to the sum of 10% given to the total proxy contractor who is the parent member.

Therefore, no matter which rank the member introduces, the referral fee given to the member does not exceed the maximum of 35%, regardless of the person who introduced the product.

The discount rate when a member purchases a product is a referral commission received by the member when the person whom the member introduces the product purchases, and a uniform discount rate based on being a member. It is a value obtained by adding 10%. In other words, if the contractual contractor himself purchases, a referral fee of 15% and a uniform 10% are added.
% Discount. If the agent purchases by himself, he will get a 35% discount, which is 25% as a referral fee and a flat 10%. If the sole agent contractor purchases it, the referral fee will be 35% and a flat 10% will be added, giving a 45% discount. In addition, in the present embodiment, only a uniform 10% is applied to general members, but a 15% discount may be applied by adding 5% as a referral fee and a uniform 10%.

Next, the privileges received by members of each rank and rank up will be described in more detail.

In order to become a member, it is not possible to join without the introduction of a trusted member. By registering as a member, you can purchase all of our products at 10% off the regular price.

In that case, the member will bear a certain fee. As a general rule, the cost of shipping products is borne by the member.
If the number of shipments exceeds a certain amount, we will bear it. When a general member is an introducer, 5% of the regular price of the product purchased by the introducer is paid to this member as an introduction fee.
