  Hello Everyone,
I hope maybe someone can give me some advice I'am a roofing contractor that has been doing must of the sales myself I would like to hire some more sales guy this year but I'am having trouble coming up with a way to pay them. I have put people on salary in the past for a few weeks until they get on there feet but that has not worked out for me for instance I would pay $500 dollars a week plus commision of 5% of the net profit. Any advice would help

  What kind of roofing do you do, and what kind of person are you hoping to attract?

Far more important than the number of people you know while you are here is the number of people that will miss you when you are gone

  Pay more? like what? are you an owner or a salesman?

Mike's on the right track. Commericial or residential? are you suppling leads or are they out hustling to get business? are there any other beni's that you supply?
Residentially, I supply no draw, 8%-10% commission, new vehicle, gas, phone, laptop, insurance after 90. I supply some leads but I expect you to put in 30-50 hr, on the honor system. I back you up with all the training you need, an office to work out of.
Commercially speakly, you must come in with a book. I pay some draw and a commission..Negotiatable. Help me out with that one Mike. Don't laugh.

Look for salesperson that can make over $100k without a storm(very tricky)
They're all going to say "I want to"
