    Yes, for the next 12 months, they will be a PSA.  You have an opportunity to keep compressed PSAs with a “1 for 1” PSA program.  For each new sponsored PSA you enroll by July 31, 2025, if they have minimum sales of $2000 in their first 6 months, they will remain a PSA as long as they are active.  If you don’t recruit a Stylist who sells $2,000 in their first 6 months, the compressed Stylist will be a Level 1 Stylist to you.

    The rules are based on the ones implemented earlier: 

    Title Achievement Bonus :

    Stylists are eligible for a Title Achievement Bonus (one time only per Business Title). Title Achievement Bonuses are paid for Executive Style Consultant, Style Leader, Executive Style Leader, and Managing Director. To receive any Title Achievement Bonus, a Stylist must be eligible and have promoted to that Business Title for the very first time. The Title Achievement Bonus will be paid on the next commission payment.

    Mentor Matching Title Achievement Bonus:

    Mentors who have a Level 1 Stylist who achieves a Title Achievement Bonus, may be eligible for a matching bonus. To be eligible, the Mentor must be at or above the title that the level 1 Stylist Achieved. (Example: Level 1 achieves Style Leader Title Achievement Bonus and earns $1,000. The Mentor is a Senior Style Leader, they will receive a matching $1,000 bonus).  The Stylist does not have to be a PSA for the Mentor to be eligible.

    Yes, if you acquire a PSA in compression, you will have the opportunity to help your new Level 1 promote up and receive the matching mentor bonuses. If they promote up in the next 12 months, they are recognized as your PSA.   After July 31, 2025, you will continue to earn matching TAB bonuses on this individual, if you earned them as a PSA from August 1, 2024 to July 31, 2025. To be eligible, the Mentor must be at or above the title that the level 1 Stylist achieved.

    In Revolution (both in the Stylist App & the Green Room) – after compression – there will be visibility up to Level 8.
