Article One Partners Shared Reward Compensation Plan
Posted on Tue, Aug 17, 2010
Article One Partners is thrilled to announce a new Shared Reward Compensation Plan. The research done by the AOP community is tremendous and we want to reward as many researchers as possible for their time and effort. With this new compensation plan we have accomplished just that: We will reward more Researchers for every study!
In the Shared Reward Compensation Plan, the Winner of each AOP Study will continue to receive the majority of the stated reward. However, Article One will also pay $100 each to a maximum of 10 Researchers (totaling up to $1,000 per Study) for high quality research submissions. The Researchers who receive the $100 Rewards will be referred to as Most Valuable Researchers on the Article One website.
Example of Shared Rewards
For an AOP Study with a posted reward of $10,000:
- Up to 10 Most Valuable Researchers will receive $100 each
- The Winner will receive $9,000
If there happens to be less than 10 Most Valuable Researchers, the Winner will receive the excess money. In other words, if there were only 7 Most Valuable Researchers, the Winner will receive $9,300.
If there are multiple Winners of a Study, they will split the majority amount, and this would not affect the amount available to Most Valuable Researchers.
For Guaranteed Reward Studies, the shared reward is also guaranteed. For Invalidity Studies, the shared reward is only paid if there is a Study Winner.
In developing the AOP Shared Reward Compensation Plan we gave special consideration to all of the wonderful ideas and feedback offered by Article One Researchers in the Community Forum, phone calls and emails.
It is important to us that AOP Researchers still have a large incentive to submit the highest quality research to win a Study, which is why the Winner of each Study will continue to receive a majority of the reward in the new Shared Reward Compensation Plan. However, we are excited that we will now also be able to immediately reward more Researchers for their efforts.
Shared Rewards will be integrated into all Studies launched after August 17, 2010, unless noted otherwise. Unfortunately, Shared Rewards will not be retroactive and does not apply to Studies that are currently active.
The Shared Reward Compensation Plan is being launched as Article One continues to ramp up the number of Studies on the site. With the greater chances of being rewarded for a Study, combined with the increased number of Studies launched, there is no better time than now to reap the rewards of being an Article One Researcher!
