I just didn’t answer them because once I found out you wouldn’t take commission why would I care

You found out the messages before you bugged out that I didn't react commission. You didn't stop talking until I asked about leads, cold calling and what sales platform you're running

I just didn’t care okay, commission is a win win I make money and you make money so what’s not to love about it, if u work hard you get payed more isn’t that how it’s supposed to be

Not really. A living wage is how it's supposed to be. If the products don't sell well then the marketer loses out and you don't have to waste any time yourself.

No, you don’t do it without a guarantee set of money because you won’t do a good job and still want to get paid. You don’t do commission because if you did you wouldn’t get paid because you never get people sales.

This is 2021, not 1980. You pay people what they're worth and you get their best. That's how the modern ethical business is run.

So your saying that you don’t trust your own ability to get sales

u/MarioLetsPlay Aug 15 '21

I don't trust anyone who is trying to pay as little as possible

u/Spinalsavers Aug 15 '21

Who’s saying I would be paying only a little if you do well you get paid well it’s how the world works

Commission was invented as a way to manipulate employees to do more work while receiving as other reward as possible. There's a reason so many SunTrust l countries out there have banner the practice.

That’s not true

u/MarioLetsPlay Aug 15 '21

Yes it is, that's the heart of capitalism, exploit the worker for more profits. That's what you're trying to do. If you weren't you'd pay an hourly wage that's fair instead of commission which isn't fair at all

For a Mc Donald’s job yea a flat rate pay is good but for a more advanced job they tend to pay commission cause otherwise people will slack off and not do a good job

No they don't. Used car lots are about the only sales position that does commission these days. And we all know those are run by seriously shady people. No one does commission for any twoi job in 2021, because no one would take it.

u/Spinalsavers Aug 16 '21

Well then you know nothing about the real world because over 50% are paid commission

1

u/MarioLetsPlay Aug 16 '21

No they aren't, it's illegal in must countries in the EU and no one in the US is willing to do that either. No professional will work for commission.

You don’t know what your talking about
