Just Had a Question Regarding Commission.i Understand That for

In summary, commission is a fee or percentage of a sale paid to individuals or companies for their services in a sales or business transaction. It is typically calculated as a percentage of the total sales value and serves as a form of motivation and compensation for employees. Commission is different from a bonus, which is a one-time payment based on performance. However, commission-based pay can also create a competitive work environment and shift focus away from providing quality service.

Just had a question regarding commission.I understand that for Fundraisers the consultant's commission is 10% for sales under $600 and 15% for sales more than $600. How does this effect your other sales for catalog & cooking shows. In other words let's say you have a fundraiser for $1500 and you had $2500 in sales for catalog/cooking shows does the $1500 go toward the total so you would receive the 25% on the $2500? or would you get the 24% on the $2500? Thanks.jj16:confused:
 
Re: CommissionYes, it counts for your total for the month, so you would make the increased amt of commission.

Re: CommissionThanks for the clarification Debjj16
 
Re: CommissionYour commission on the fundraiser is 15% regardless of the guest sales (17% if you've reached $15K in career sales). The 10% under $599 only applies to PC's contribution to the charity.
 
Hi jj16,Thank you for reaching out with your question about commissions. As a pampered chef consultant, I can definitely help clarify this for you.For fundraisers, the consultant's commission is 10% for sales under $600 and 15% for sales more than $600. This commission is separate from the commission earned on catalog and cooking show sales. So, in your example, if you had a fundraiser for $1500 and $2500 in sales for catalog and cooking shows, you would receive 15% commission on the $1500 from the fundraiser and 24% commission on the $2500 from the catalog and cooking show sales. The two commissions are not combined.I hope this helps answer your question. If you have any further questions or need clarification, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you for your support of Pampered Chef and happy cooking!Best,
 

1. What is commission?

Commission refers to a fee or percentage of a sale that is paid to a person or company as compensation for their services, typically in a sales or business transaction.

2. How is commission calculated?

The calculation of commission varies depending on the industry and company policies. It is typically a percentage of the total sales value, and can also be based on other factors such as profit margin or individual performance.

3. What is the purpose of commission?

The purpose of commission is to incentivize and motivate individuals to increase sales or perform well in their job. It also serves as a form of compensation for their efforts and contribution to the company's success.

4. Is commission the same as a bonus?

No, commission and bonuses are different forms of compensation. Commission is usually a percentage of sales, while bonuses are one-time payments that are usually based on individual or company performance.

5. Are there any drawbacks to commission-based pay?

One drawback of commission-based pay is that it can create a competitive and sometimes cutthroat work environment. It can also lead to employees focusing solely on making sales, rather than providing quality service or building long-term relationships with customers.
