The honest maths: how many orders does it actually take to earn your products for free?

One of the most common questions people ask when they first look at the EarnYourProducts model is: how many customers do I actually need? This post gives you the real numbers — no hype, no vague promises.

Start with your own order

Let's say your typical monthly order of Sisel products costs around $150–$200 AUD. That's your baseline — the amount you're currently spending (or would spend) on wellness products each month.

The goal of the OSM model is simple: build enough volume from your customers' orders that your commissions cover what you're spending. When that happens, your products are effectively free.

The basic maths

Sisel pays retail commissions when customers order through your replicated site. The exact commission rate depends on the product and your rank, but as a rough starting point, assume you earn somewhere in the range of 20–30% on customer orders.

If your monthly product spend is $200, and you earn 25% commission on customer orders, you need roughly $800 in customer orders per month to break even on your own costs.

That sounds like a lot — until you break it down. $800 across four customers who each order $200 per month. Four people who love the products and reorder consistently. That's the target.

Why consistency matters more than volume

The maths only works if people reorder. A customer who buys once doesn't help you build a self-funding model. The products need to work well enough that people come back — and that's why product quality is central to this whole model, not an afterthought.

The honest caveat

These numbers are illustrative. Your actual commission rates, PV values, and volume requirements should be confirmed through the official Sisel compensation plan documentation. The point of this post is to show you that the maths is real and achievable — not that these exact figures apply to every situation.
