Commission or Salary what's the best way to compensate your sales team?

I was listening to Brian B on his The Travel DJ Blend podcast where he was talking about commission versus salary for salespeople. It got me thinking about all of my clients who ask me about the right way to set up a compensation plan for their sales teams (whether they’re a team of 1 or more). While there’s no one way that’s right for everyone, there are some things to consider when setting up your compensation plan. 

Listen to this new 8-minute episode for some ideas on different compensation options.
