There are five bonus pools in the dōTERRA pool party, and while only certain people get to swim in each pool, it’s always more fun if there are more people at the party. The dōTERRA bonus pools are set up to reward leaders on the collective success of all IPCs. Each pool contains a percentage of the global commissionable volume for the payout month— so the better the company does as a whole, the more money there is in each pool. This means that everyone in the company can benefit from everyone else’s growth and success, no matter whose team they’re on. Having a bonus percentage based on global commissionable volume provides incentive for leaders to work together across teams and to support levels deeper into their organizations. Each month, the total from each bonus pool is split into equal shares which are then paid to qualified IPCs in their primary bonus checks. Qualified IPCs can earn one extra share for personally enrolling an IPC who reaches the required rank for the first time during that month. Example: Bridget is a Blue Diamond and will receive 2 shares The following explanations and illustrations show how it works: Diamond Performance Pool from the Diamond Performance Pool and 3 shares from the Leadership Pool  ercentage of volume: 1% P Blue Diamond Pool.
