OMG, another Ponzi Pyramid...<br />
No, not a Ponzi or Pyramid but an Ethical Network!<br />
Ponzi was a man who defrauded shareholders of his company by claiming<br />
their investment was used for profit generation.<br />
They were not. Ponzi pocketed their investments.<br />
Sprout 22 is not corporate Ponzi fraud! Sprout 22 makes no untrue claims and<br />
is open and honest about exactly what happens to your contribution.<br />
Pyramids of one shape or another are used for network marketing and network games.<br />
Sprout 22 uses an open network structure with some similarities to Pyramids.<br />
The structure used is not a 'binary pyramid' or a pyramid of any fixed structure. The Sprout 22<br />
structure is similar to the open structure of your computers file system.<br />
Sprout 22 evolved from networking R&D, using sophisticated computer simulations, seeking a perfect<br />
networking formula.<br />
One of the biggest problems with networks and pyramids is their uneven distribution. Networks<br />
have a native tendency to strongly focus distribution to their centre (or top of pyramids).<br />
This "Network Effect" affects many aspects of networking, including:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Large number of people required to break even<br />
The long time taken to recruit those people<br />
The long time taken to realise surplus<br />
A paucity of funding near the network boundary<br />
This affects funding available to recruiters<br />
Unethical, heavily skewed distribution<br />
All networking structures investigated exhibit these symptoms.<br />
Our R&D investigated a wide range of methods to balance the Network Effect<br />
and found that a recursive fraction of remainder was a promising avenue.<br />
The 22% of remainder recursive formula has emerged from extensive R&D that discovered that 22%<br />
is a 'sweet spot' for balancing the Network Effect.<br />
Plus the first 33.33% slice has the additional benefit of ensuring that break-even is achieved with<br />
only 3 people brought to the network, unheard of in ANY network.
The Sprout 22 Formula uniquely balances the Network Effect:<br />
The Sprout 22 Formula creates an ethical distribution. The graph clearly shows the strong bias toward<br />
the network boundary, the opposite of other networks.<br />
From the perspective of "Pyramid", while structurally a form of pyramid (open network) exists, from<br />
the distribution formula standpoint that structure is used to "support and enhance the foundations".<br />
It effectively turns the pyramid upside down...<br />
The net outcome is a balancing of distribution in such a way that favours the network boundary, the<br />
recruiters, and to minimise the recruitment required.<br />
The 22% of remainder formula achieves this fine balance, plus ensuring that the growing network<br />
still rewards those nearer the centre (or top), thereby creating an 'ethical' network.<br />
It was this discovery that led to the development of Sprout 22 , a truly Ethical Network.
