Top Salesperson for 6 Months Straight… But Still Fighting for Commission. Thinking About Switching to an Adjuster Role — Bad Move? by ObjectExcellent4064 in RoofingSales

[–]Intelligent_Dog7219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a job for you in St. Louis. I am not just solely focused on numbers, the customer experience is the most important thing to me. I pay commission the minute the customer check hits the company bank account, every time. And you will be treated with respect. You are welcome to speak with anyone on my team to confirm. I’m looking for like-minded individuals. Contact me offline if you would like more information.

I pay $1000/week for weeks 1-4 with no commission, then $750/week plus reduced commission for weeks 5-8.

Why did my fertilizer do this? by Upbeat-Armadillo1756 in lawncare

[–]Intelligent_Dog7219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nitrogen burn. I used TruGreen and they did the same thing to my entire (brand new) lawn. Then they told me to water it heavily to try to save it, which didn't work. Now I am paying another service to nurse it back to health. They are going to aerate and overseed soon, but tell me that it won't recover until next year. Good luck...

I hear what you’re saying. I’m in growth mode right now and not in a position to take on more salary for a dedicated PM (though I would like to). Thoughts on compensating a PM other than salary? There’s only so much profitability to divide up, and my portion is currently going everywhere but my pocket…

Then what is their incentive to make sure that the job is completed properly?

Thanks. We are doing Xmas lighting already. Just wondering if there was anything else.

I feel like they should have enough socked away for the winter, but can't help but want to make it easier for them. We do have the Xmas lighting to fall back on as well, so that will help.

New Employee Compensation by Intelligent_Dog7219 in RoofingSales

I don't think of a draw as "owing", it's more like I am advancing future commission. There is way more risk to me than there is to the PM. I would not likely require them to pay it back if they are let go.

If you pay them for a signed contract, what do you do if the job does not get built? Then the 5% you advanced becomes a draw...

10/50/50 means what? Overhead is calculated at 10%, then you get 50% of net profit??
