    How much does it cost to get a KNOWN sales rep

    I tossing around a few idea. What does it cost to get a known sales guy IE a "Tanker" a "Wizzo" a "Dwreck"

    Some one who had a rep and can not only post on boards but do actuall affiliate support and one one icq/aol/phone sales

    They above examples are just what I saw skimming the board tonight but you know what I mean.

    I'll do it for you for $4k per month. I'm known for my intelligence, therefore not many people know me on gfy, as intelligence is frowned upon. Be different, be unique and hire me as your support rep, and your business shall grow to immense proportions.

          About 10K per month and 3% - 5% of affiliate sales as a bonus?

                  lolol, this makes me laugh because you will see how cheap some sponsors really are. there are a handful of really good sales reps out there and they have a mix of salary plus comission

                      haha, i would sure hope not. sales reps arent really that hard to come by.

                      if i hired anyone i would only pay them commission.

                        Sponsors cheap how? If I was paying someone 100k a year they had better be making me atleast 300k

                          Also I was not talking about just a sales rep. Im talking about some one with a name and a rep. Someone who does go to shows and does actually help affiliates with helping them make more money with said program.

                            after a sales rep has been with more than a few programs their rates come down. Kinda like a girl before she has had sex with the entire football team. Once she does the whole D-Line her rates just came down.
                            Me, personally, once I see an affiliate manager bounce from program to program i start scratching my head and say hmmmmmm.... Something is fishy here.

                              depending on your expectations, i'd charge a small base salary plus commission for part-time work.

                                thats what sales reps do. if they have actual webmaster skills its different though, i'm not sure about wizzo but tanker seems to know a thing or two about running websites from what i've seen. that derek guy on the other hand only seems to know how to post pictures of himself with girls he meets at shows.

                                  I agree with you but what if the bounce factor has something to do with the programs that hired them. I have noticed alot of what I would think good sales reps bounce for other reasons.
                                  Also Im I should have prolly not used the term sales rep. Im also including the "director of marketing" and the "COO" in this. (whatever they mean)

                                      a sales rep will only preform to 50% of what you're capable of yourself - as a general rule.

                                      Now read without the word dog.

                                              i think of it like field of dreams. you build it they will come. i think the $ is much better spent on good sites. look at nasty dollars for example. they dont have sales reps yet they are the most promoted program on the internet. they simply dont need sales reps.

                                                Both and some one with a big list of contacts/affiliates.

                                                    I guess thats why a base salary plus commision is important. If they work hard themselves they get the commision and if they slack you can tell them that they have specific obligations that need to be met to earn the base salary. I guess it depends on what type of a person they are.

                                                      Nastydollars has awesome content but they also have/had the advantage of massive internal traffic to launch anything they want. When you can exit to your paysite from http://www.sublimedirectory.com/ I guess a few webmasters might see it.

                                                                See, to me, there's more to it than just posting and looking cute, (although I have that in spades). I do a great deal of writing, icqing, love to go to the shows to interact and collect business cards, talk to those who give Me the cards and actually have a good time with them. If you can have a good time with potential clients, they'll remember you easily.

                                                                Plus it's hard to miss Me.

                                                                                  Nothing against them, but all they do is give you the answer for questions like "can I use sponsor content for galleries", and "hey, can you please get me another check cut please?". Thats fucking it from what I have come across. And ten grand someone here was mentioning a month for this sort of work? Obviously ok, there are other tasks they do, but from an affiliate point of view, thats all we see, and if asked anything else about suggestions for improving click throughs, galleries etc,? They have no clue. None I have come across anyhow. Maybe I'm missing something.

                                                                                  You can get it ploughing a paddock, you can get it makin some porn sites, matter of fact I've got it now.

                                                                                  For a hard earned thrist, you need a big cold beer.

                                                                                              For sales rep work, $10K a month is a lot. Even $5K a month is a lot. Some sales reps only make commission, nothing else. Those who get commission and salary usually get more than 3-5% as well.

                                                                                              The title of sales rep is very different from Director of Marketing and especially COO. The typical sales recruits new affiliates and helps existing affiliates. A Director of Marketing does more than that.

                                                                                                  and yes a guy/girl like that needs to bring you 200-250k turnover/year
