[QUOTE="p238shooter, post: 3118207, member: 24583"] Reply to the above Dennis. What happened? Sometimes IMO if you are smart business owner and do not let your ego get in the way. You can let the sales guy have all the glory and make all the big bucks he wants to make doing what you hired him to do. That is what he pitched he would do if you hired him. Right? Keep taking care of him well, paying him the outrageous commissions he is "earning" , giving him the perks, most likely the deal you made when you hired him, and just keep depositing the checks minus the outrageous commissions you agreed to in the bank. Bottom line, just because you are the owner does not mean you have to get greedy. You gave him the option of a deal, go out and make me and you a lot of money. In the background you are now going to renig on the deal because he exceeded your expatiation? Seems you have a flawed business plan. I have no idea of percentages, but let's think radical. 1/2 of a little of his efforts is something. 1/2 of a whole lot more is a whole lot better. Been there, done that, had that same feeling writing monthly big commission checks to a super salesman. Really Hurt my finger writing those big monthly commission checks with the pen. (I never really liked him as a person in any way, he was a real *******) but I got over it when my whole body felt better reading my monthly bank statements. Just doing business. JMO [/QUOTE]
