Question re commission structure

[MJG]

Hi there,

Just wanting to know how other commission structures work.

Do you get target based commission on invoice or collections and if it is collections are you expected to chase the money and bring it in yourself for the month?

For example I have a target, I invoice the amount of the target and more every month, yet only get paid on collections. Some months the collections do not reach the target as customers may pay a day or two late and I get penalised for it and paid less the following month. Also I am expected to bring the money in ie act as a "debt collector". I am employed as a sales rep.

Is this common practice ?

So then what answers do you hope to get out of this one that wasn't in the previous one? Besides sarcastic answers like this one.

I was not totally sure in which thread to post it in so I put it in both.
But thank you for putting me in my place.

Only a pleasure. When in doubt, never create a duplicate thread. Post it in off topic with a note for the mods to move it if it isn't correct. You'll get a lot more views that way. #LPT
