Anybody ever heard of or have a compensation plan like this?
Sell a deal. Get 50% of the total profit as commission.
No gas cards, no company vehicles, no special bonuses for selling more deals.
Would you do it? Have you done it?
What are the downsides as a company owner? What are the downsides as a rep?
I get 7% on the total sale if it came from the company and 9% if I created it myself. I have a company truck, gas card, don’t do any backend paperwork or order any materials. All I do is just sell. Im located in South Florida for reference.
Does this sound good or am I getting fucked?
I’ve been helping with bringing in new enquiries, follow-up, local search visibility, and neighborhood outreach.
Within the first few weeks, 3 jobs came through without paid ads.
The issue now is payment. The contractor says some customers are paying late or not paying what he expected, so he is also delaying what he owes me.
If the agreed work was completed and the jobs came through, should my payment depend on when his customers pay him?
Or should those be treated as two separate things?
Curious how roofing business owners would handle this.
I own a very small moving company here and I’ve become very very fascinated with the sales process. I’ve improved our process significantly but I’ve decided I want to just switch to a sales job full time. Yeah I could make money owning a moving company, I could make money anywhere, but all the interviews I’ve been in seem to heavily question why I want to quit my business.
It’s almost like they think I’m the perfect candidate but they don’t believe me when I say I just didn’t like what I was doing at my company. I’m about to sell the company to one of my employees. Is there anything I should be communicating differently to the interviewers?
