10 sample revenue chart The chart below shows the rate in which this revenue increases as you continue to refer our products and services. Incremental revenue is a way to generate continuous income for your business. It is revenue that continues long after the sale of a product. It is not only a way to increase capital in your company s bottom line, but a simple way to grow profits rapidly! ACTIVATIONS PER MONTH ANNUAL INCOME 5 Sales Per Month $6, Sales Per Month $12, Sales Per Month $24, Sales Per Month $36, Sales Per Month $48, Sales Per Month $60,000 * Disclaimer: Above figures based on example of $ per activation. Income per activation increases with volume. It is not the intention to project earnings for potential dealers/referring agents. The above figures are provided as a guide to assist in the understanding of potential income. Any dealer/agent will be considered an independent contractor and will be responsible for their own business model. Dealer s actual income will be a direct result of how they choose to execute their individual business plan, execute their marketing plan, optional installation charges, and account attrition (due to non-payment/death etc.) and business practices.
