4) Sponsoring New Dealers and Preferred Customers - Multiply your profits by building and managing your own sales group. When you sponsor new Dealers and Preferred Customers (just like you would be sponsored as a Dealer) you are building a "downline group." The commission value of your group's purchases is added to yours, increasing the percentage of your commission and giving you a bigger commission check The primary difference between Dealers and Preferred Customers is the right to earn commissions. Dealers earn commission checks based upon their commission credits and the commission schedule. Preferred Customers do not earn commission. All commission credits earned by Preferred Customers are credited to the sponsoring Dealer.
EXAMPLE: You sponsored 3 Preferred Customers and 3 Dealers. All of them have purchased products worth 300 commission credits in the month. In addition, you have generated the same 606.65 commission credits as in the previous example:

For this example, AMSOIL would send out checks totaling $409.13 (17% of 2406.65). The total paid to your Dealers would be $45.00 (5% of 300.00, or $15.00 to each Dealer), and the rest is yours to keep. For the same 606.65 personal commission credits shown in the previous example, you receive a $364.13 commission instead of $48.53, just by sponsoring new Dealers and Preferred Customers who generate commission credits. Your combined retail profits and commissions now totals $636.93 instead of $321.33. Note: As your group's purchases reach and maintain a monthly level of 3000 commission credits, you attain the level of Direct Jobber. You can earn up to 25% at the 5000 commission credit level. Direct Jobbers are also eligible to earn Direct Jobber performance commissions, car bonuses and more. See the marketing plan (G-47B) for more details.
Earn performance commission bonuses by building and maintaining your sales group and by helping your Dealers build, too. As your Dealers' businesses grow to the 3000 commission level and they sponsor their own groups, they become Direct Jobbers as well. Instead of adding their purchases to yours, you earn a Direct Jobber performance commission. Depending on how many of your Dealers become Direct Jobbers, you can earn from 5% to 9% on the total purchases of all these groups. See the AMSOIL Multi-Level Marketing Sales Plan (G-47B) for complete details about the qualifications and requirements to earn extra commissions from your group and to earn Direct Jobber performance commissions.
5) Fund Raising Accounts - A great opportunity for both Dealers and organizations. Organizations earn retail profits and commissions through sales to members and supporters. Dealers receive a higher commission level.
Signing up organizations for the AMSOIL Fund Raising Program allows organizations to sell AMSOIL products via the Internet and through AMSOIL catalogs. Organizations receive their own account number which members and supporters use to order products through the catalogs and over the Internet. The retail profits from the sales along with the commissions generated go directly to the Fund Raising Account. AMSOIL INC. handles all order taking, shipping, billing and returns. As an AMSOIL Dealer working the Fund Raising Program, you are gaining access to many potential retail customers, downline Dealers and Preferred Customers. In addition, as the sponsoring Dealer, your Fund Raising Account's monthly commissions are calculated into your commission level, increasing the level of commissions you receive.
EXAMPLE: If a motorcycle club has 10 members, and each purchases a single case of AMSOIL 10W-40 Synthetic Motorcycle Oil, the organization earns the following profits:
Quantity 10 |
Product AMF-01 |
Suggested Retail $672.00 |
Dealer Cost $510.00 |
Retail Profit $162.00 |
Commission Credits 396 |

As in sponsoring Dealers, the commission value of your Fund Raising Accounts' purchases is added to your commission credit totals increasing the percentage of your total commissions. In this example, the 396 commission credits are added to your 2406.65 from the previous example for a total of 2802.65 commission credits.
For this example, AMSOIL would send out checks totaling $560.53 (20% of 2802.65). The total paid to your Dealers would still be $45.00. The total commission paid to the Fund Raising Account would be $19.80 (5% of 396 commission credits). The remaining $495.73 is yours to keep. That's an extra $131.60 commissions credited by the additional commission credits your Fund Raising Account sales generated. Now your combined total for the month is $768.53. The Fund Raising Account not only earned $19.80 in commissions, but also receives the $162.00 in retail profit.
For more information on the Fund Raising Program, see the G-1584 Fund Raising Brochure.
6) Commercial Accounts - Commercial accounts are a great opportunity for AMSOIL sales. Earn 10% cash commissions plus 20% commission credits. Commercial accounts can provide a steady source of income for an AMSOIL Dealer. Commercial accounts are businesses which have company-owned vehicles, equipment and machinery that use the quality lubricants and filters available in the AMSOIL product line. These accounts do not sell AMSOIL products, but choose to use them in their equipment and machinery. When you register a commercial account, you earn a 10% cash commission on every purchase your account makes. In addition, you also receive 20% of their purchases as commission credits which are applied to the commission schedule and added to your commission totals as shown in the previous examples.
Example:
| Your Account |
Amount of Their Purchase |
Your Cash Commission (10%) |
Your Commission Credits (20%) |
| Farmer |

AMSOIL offers two competitive price structures - one for retail accounts (next section) and one for commercial accounts. When you initiate new retail, quick lube or commercial accounts, you become their "Servicing Dealer." By calling on your accounts and keeping them supplied with products, you continue receiving commissions and commission credits on all of the purchases they make from you!
7) Retail On-The-Shelf Accounts - More profits in retail markets. Earn 20% cash commissions plus 20% commission credits. Selling AMSOIL to retail accounts is another way to earn commissions. Retail accounts are retail outlets such as auto parts stores, motorcycle dealerships and automotive service centers. These stores stock AMSOIL products to sell to their customers or install AMSOIL products as part of a service such as with oil changes.
When you sign up a retail account, you earn a cash commission on every purchase your account makes. If your retail accounts purchase XL 7500 motor oils and Hastings Filters, you will receive 15% cash commissions. All other purchases earn 20% cash commissions. In addition, you receive 20% of their purchases as commission credits which are applied to the commission schedule and added to your commission totals as shown in the previous examples.
