The mistake: doing the math like it's a one-time payout

The mistake: doing the math like it's a one-time payout

New here? Quick definitions. One-time: paid once per sale. Rebill (recurring): paid every billing cycle they stay. Beginners accidentally use one-time logic and misjudge everything.

Fix the mindset:
— Stop asking "how much per sale?" Ask "how much per customer over their lifetime?"
— Multiply monthly commission by average months kept.

Example: $4/mo commission sounds tiny next to a $40 one-time payout. But if customers stay 18 months, that's $72 per customer, beating the $40.

In plain English: a small monthly drip can fill a bigger glass than one big splash.

Today: take your favorite recurring program and multiply its monthly commission by 12 to see the real yearly value of one customer.
