I work for a non corp store... $9 and hour, plus roughly $1500 plus bonus. It's fairly busy and a lot of our customers are either refered, or returning. We also get a lot of college students, business owners that make huge buys...

We're in central California.

not at all...i've averaged 49 GA's and somewhere around 120 opps each month this year, which has been good for tier 3 all but one month when they jacked our goals up. last month my NET features were a little over $1600 (good enough for the 75% payout that everybody on here was saying we wouldn't be able to hit) and when mycomp updated today i have over a $3k commission check for april and that's not counting 2 different spiffs we had in our market last month. but i also got paid $245 for wireline sales. heck, i'm already at 30 sales this month as of today and i didn't even work the 1st day of the month

From what I understand, the ASM commission is capped at a certain dollar value. The RSM might be the same way.

haha, i hate cor's pay structure. the more features you sell, the less percentage you make. at least thats what it was when i left. im at an indirect that pays dollar for dollar still on features. maybe thats why were no. 1 in feats/opp in the nation.!

Asinine;

If you hit qualifiers for tiers then you'll be making huge dollars. I believe it's now 75% on Features for Tier 3.

Also, wait until the "net revenue" hits the indirect dealers pocketbooks and see how much they are willing to pay you to flip a feature.

features have nothing to do with "tiers". it's all about what percent of your goal you sell. 150% will get you 75% payout and in my case that assures you of over $1100...i've hit it easily last month and this month.



Posted by: k.heiner

That's what the tier is; if you attain excellence, you've achieved the third tier. 140% of goal is excellence. Look at your comp plan; it's all based off of net sales to attainment.

i think you're the one that needs to look over your comp plan. i'm not trying to argue, but your features have nothing to do with you hitting "excellence achievement" at 140% of your opps goal. you could hit 140% opps every month and still only get paid 35% on features if you didn't sell enough. your features are broken down into 5 multipliers....35, 45, 55, 65 and 75% payouts. or if you have hsc's in your store you can actually get paid out at 85%. trust me, i know how i get paid...the only thing that's keeping me in this job is because i'm able to hit tier 3 every month and since the new comp plan went into place i've been able to obtain the 75% payout in features

Net revenue payouts on features would be a Godsend to the honest Indirects...because most of our feature chargebacks are from scumbag reps who decide to flip any feature they come across, regardless of vesting time. We make our feature money from legitimate feature adds and if we happen to change an old SOC code to a new one, it damn sure is after 6 months (usually 8 to play it safe).



Posted by: moemoe26

yes asm and rsm are capped at 175% which sucks but i'm in the northeast and its bad looking to moving south and just curious



Posted by: IronCross

Ok you guys ready for this garbage?

Slow-as-hell COR location:

11.15 an hour
Commission checks on average are $400.

Sucks hardcore. My god what I'd do to make $1000 a month in commission!!
Our entire store has around 350 opps split between 8 reps. *sigh*

In COR we have actually lost what we thought were "good salesmen" because of the Net Revenue change. $40 in features are now $11 in features. The SOC upgrade now pays everyone NOTHING. I suppose we'll just have to wait until the dust settles to see who's actually selling.

I would say that there's no difference between COR and INDIRECT as far as the vesting caution. There are some that don't sell against unvested features, and some that do.

Just a quick follow-up question:

If you change a feature after the vesting period, are you still shut out of getting commission, or is it just for the initial 6 months?

It doesn't matter when the feature was put on, it turns out that it's just the difference you get paid on if it's in the same feature family. To answer your question directly, vesting period doesn't matter anymore. For example, Media Basic (i.e. $9.99) changed to Media Max (i.e. $15) is only an incremental upsell, because it's technically still in the same family. Same thing applies to Messaging-a rep in our store took off an old Messaging 50 @ $2.99 (I think) and changed to Messaging Unltd-only got credit for the difference.

There is even a spreadsheet that corporate put together to clarify which old features (from eons ago) are still considered in the same feature family, and thus you only get paid on the difference.

I hope this makes sense (I'm sure someone will tell me if it needs explained further).

As stated previously; vesting periods no longer matter beyond 30 days.

Situation:
You sell a blackjack II with $30 web and $20 text; 2 weeks later they come to another store and exchange for a blackberry. You'll lose the $30 web because the bb feature is another family, and the new rep gets the revenue. 4 months down the line, iPhone #16 comes out and they buy that. Everyone loses all of their feature revenue and the iPhone seller gets the revenue. 2 weeks after activating the iPhone, customer decides he doesn't want unlimited text, so whoever lowers the iPhone feature gets the full revenue (same family). 31 days later, they get a bill with overage and go back to the iPhone unlim text plan and are talking to you. You upsell him from $30 to $40 and you get $10 in revenue, and the previous SOC holder doesn't get a charge back for anything.



Posted by: smg1976

To answer Cingman's question more to the point-whether in the first 30 days, or beyond, it doesn't matter what changes are made in the same feature family-you only get the incremental difference-vesting period does not exist.

The one way to protect yourself is put PDA/BlackBerry/Media Max separate from Messaging, so if anything comes off within 30 days, at least you don't lose the entire feature. So, if a customer wants BlackBerry Unltd, you put on the $30 and the $20 feature separately. If they change to a PDA within 30 days, the Messaging feature sticks.

Seriously? That's a downgrade in the feature, and as such, you wouldn't get any revenue from the feature. It'll show up in the DSR that you have a feature sale, but you won't get paid on it.

31 days later on an upsell, yes, you would get the difference.



Posted by: k.heiner

if a feature is not vested for thirty days it's just likenthe old days.



Posted by: cingman66

OK, so within the first 30 days, everything is like it is now for us...you get commission on whatever you sell and you lose commission on whatever you sold that got changed...does that sound right?

Then, after 30 days, you only get incremental differences if the features are in the same family. What features are in what families?

Plain and simple, this customer just needs to make up their mind!
