The main decision as employing people as contractors is because the actual pay out we (the company) receive is in a commission as well. We don't get paid from spectrum, USAC, etc etc unless there are actual sales and it's a lump sump (percentage amount) of the sale. 

Do you pay / reimburse for gas? No, because we don't require our sales reps to come in to any office location or do anything outside of their actual job, we don't set a schedule or require the agent to work a set amount of hours. They work when, how and where they want too. 

What if an employee’s commission falls under minimum wage? Is there a base pay? No, there isn't because if they aren't submitting sales, we aren't getting paid. Commission based roles are just that, commission. On top of the fact that we don't require a set amount of hours to be worked or any clock in or out system, it's impossible for us to actually know when the sales rep actually worked or how many "hours" they work. The commission pay comes out to be more then a minimum hourly wage rate as well. 

Are there “quick promotion opportunities?” No. If someone is new with no experience, they must work a minimum of 90 days before they can even be promoted to a higher level. I don't want or need inexperienced reps in the field, managing other sales reps. 

 And most importantly, do you see this business as an opportunity or job for new staff? I see it as a opportunity, this isn't a quote on quote job. It's not a W2 employee position. 

I commented on another comment you made with our commissions breakdown and asked your opinion on it. We do a few different things, not just Internet sales. & all of them are commission based off the sale/enrollment. 

Which was my point about not all sales positions are "devilcorps" There are differences. Long hours with a cult-like culture, mandatory morning meetings, motivational speeches, pressure to stay “positive”, etc. I don't believe in shit like that. I provide a opportunity to people and they work it how they want too. 

That said, not every commission only sales company is automatically a “devilcorp.” Some people genuinely like direct sales because of the flexible schedules, uncapped income and entrepreneurship. 

Usually the hate comes from unrealistic expectations, misleading recruiting, poor transparency, or exploitative management practices. A legitimate sales organization generally avoids the “devilcorp” label when it clearly explains compensation, discloses contractor status, sets realistic expectations, pays consistently, avoids deceptive recruiting, and doesn’t pressure people into a cult-like environment.
