Commission for part time worker

[be-beautiful]

Im new to this all so bear with me, looking through old forums and just wanted to ask some questions regarding commission. I have just started another part time therapist and want to set targets and commission schedule to keep her motivated.:Grope: Should this make any difference if she is part time. Any ideas of what way to implement it?

i am looking to put in a commission structure too so really glad you put up this thread - hopefully it will help us both!
One thing i do know is that a good therapist should take 3x her wage in treatments and 30% of that should equal retail.
hope that helps not confuses.

however, a good therapist should also be confident that her boss/manager is actually advertising the salon! I have been in a position where I had to advertise MYSELF even though I was on a flat wage/no comms! Never again will I spend MY TIME and MONEY for someone elses gain!

Maybe review what your part timers average is, and base a target on that? Say 30% higher for some comms?

good luck xx

Hi

Usually its 2x wage then 10% over that, you could then add in say 3x wage get 20%. Its best to have a clear commission structure so your staff know what they need to achieve. Make it generic so they all have the same targets to start with.

Also give a retail commission: IE 10% of the profit or you could do a structure as in they have to sell £100 then they get 5% £200 they get 10% etc. It really depends on what products you sell and the mark up on them.

The fairer you are with your staff the happier they will be and so more productive. HTH
