Mary Kay's Compensatin Plan Type is Breakaway
The breakaway plan is used by Mary Kay to organize their groups of distributors. In a breakaway plan, also commonly referred to as "a plan within a plan," the Mary Kay distributors are paid in two different ways depending on if they have reached a "breakaway rank".
Once a Mary Kay leader reaches the breakaway rank, she and her downline form a new unit where she will earn commission based on the rules for her rank. Some compensation plans have multiple breakaway groups that are formed as the distributor hits the rank goals. This is often referred to as a stairstep breakaway plan.
