    How much should I pay a sales person? (Company #'s Included)

    MARKETING 
    Yeah, I suppose it would be better if I asked the right questions of you... like what you want it to look like, what you want to earn, what's your business goals, etc. So if you're not really looking to scale it but want to make a really good income, there's nothing wrong with that. 1. Yup...

    How much should I pay a sales person? (Company #'s Included)

    MARKETING 
    Real high-D salespeople are a pain in the a$$. They are tough to manage, sloppy and disorganized, and don't always pay attention to detail... but they will bring in the money. My buddy has a group he coaches on sales and most of his group are 400-5mm/year earners. They are hungry and simply...

    How much should I pay a sales person? (Company #'s Included)

    MARKETING 
    Most sales professionals (higher-end ones) expect a 10-15% commission. That's across many different industries. If you're looking to attract some real killers, your compensation plan should include a scaling commission and once they hit a certain tier it becomes retroactive. I suggest picking...

    Why am I not getting any sales? (I'd love some input)

    The irony is pretty funny. Hopefully you get rich enough so your customer hate you haha Kidding. Here's my harsh criticism: You need a decent shopify template. The website is not easy to navigate and looks like it was built in the 1990s. You can get a really inexpensive template that would...

    Subscriptions Vs. Commissions

    MARKETING 
    That's an extremely hard sell. More power to you if you can pull it off but don't forget 100k doesn't mean 100k profit. They'll still have to pay the sales person who closed the deal, the manager who runs the sales team, the project manager to bid the job, the crews to do the job, taxes...

    How to Know It's Time to Move On From a Once Successful Business?

    Hard questions to answer in a little post. We've entered "economic winter" ... it's nothing to freak out about but it's going to take some innovation to grow again, I think. During these times, money isn't the currency -- trust is. There's never been a more difficult time to sell someone the...

    Using copywrited images for Facebook ads, is it allowed?

    MARKETING 
    Canva allows you to pay their subscription and use all copyright images for personal or professional use. Why are you worrying so much? Pay the money and run the ads. If those ads are profitable... who cares what it costs to run them?
