Interesting Business Case : how much you can earn with the "Ipod Case"
Let's dream a little bit. You will find below a concrete example of what you can eventually earn if you propose an idea similar to the Apple iPod or actively contribute to the community for this idea (c.f. finance Model overview for futher detail)

By looking at the Ipod sales and by taking a very pessismist assumption that the gross margin of Apple is only $5 per product (If you don't think that this is true, I will be more than happy to receive comments). You can have a rough idea how much money the community will earn. Let focus only on the yellow row to be realistic :
- Idea Iniatitor: you will earn in this quarter $480,000 and more that $352 Millions in total !!
- Logoden Central Staff will earn $960,000 for this quarter and more that $704 Millions in total !!. Note that this amount will be shared with several ressources.
- Local Salers will earn $1.6 M for this quarter and more that $1.2 Billions in total !!. Note that this amount will be shared with several ressources.
- General Managers in charge of region sale will earn $1.6 M for this quarter and more that $1.2 Billions in total !!. Note that this amount will be shared with several ressources
I hope that this good example is a good motivation for you to join the community once it will be possible. So bookmark this blog address and wait until the official new website launch scheduled for the mid of october ;-)
