Howdy Vossreno, out of curiosity what are the salary and commission rates your offering?
For the commission only gutter guy, it’ll obvi have to be higher rate so what’s that % look like to be appealing enough?
thx.
Yea unsure what the gutter guy gets paid, but we did $25/hr plus 5% commission and a company truck to be an experienced and lead technician.

I'm more so thinking in regards to a sales coordinator for my company.
Truth been told I'm running the ship solo yet again!
I'm starting to think it's an IshMe prob vs an IshYou (aka whoever I hire) I think I'm gonna drop this into the main chat as it'll probably be beneficial to get some collaborative advice so keep a look out over there BossReno (lol I'm doing talk to text and when I said your name Vossreno, it came up as boss Reno, it's got a nice ring to it and visually appealing ;0)- vossreno9 days agoContributor 2
The commission-based guy seemed to like it for a while and we had a very good relationship. However, I have noticed a lot of push and pull. It seems that, altogether, people really value job security, and so commission-based sales just isn't a good fit for anyone who actually cares and knows what they're doing. He has since been fired for stealing and using the company van for side work, which is against our, very well-known company policy. I made an employer-based "Work Triangle," and that's what I go by now, even for raises. 1. Low Pay, 2. High Knowledge/Skills, 3. Good Attitude/Customer Service Skills.... You can pick two out of the three, and you get the opposite of whatever you pick. I have noticed that the commission-based pay rate doesn't align with any of these and so I don't think it's gonna last.
Hope this provides some insight!
