Hi,

I'm looking to hire Sales people to roam the Net and do marketing and sales on forums and other sites including direct marketing.

I was thinking of charging commission and monthly pay if the person succeeds the "1st Month Qualifying" period.

But, my question is, how can I manage commission and who earns the commission per sales?

Referencing the sales person sounds like a plan when the client goes to order a service/product - though this depends if the customer actually does put in a reference!


Is there any proven or better methods of doing this type of payroll?

Affiliate system?

Customers they get signup via a link setup by your panel/billing system etc which logs the sign up coming from that user.

Then you pay accordingly.

WHMCS has a built in affiliate system that works perfectly for this.

You can make the referral field on your form mandatory, so they have to put something in. Or put a tracking id in the url so it automatically records it.

Ok thanks everyone.

I'm installing WHMCS anyway I'll look into that.

When business increases I'll look to have my own custom system with tracking IDs and referral forms.

Thanks again all and much appreicated!
