I have five sales people that work for me, none under six figures, three past 200.
the guy that makes the most, still does not send his clothes to the cleaners, modest truck, modest home, modest boat, but at 33 every damn thing he owns is paid for.

imagine being 31 and have a real nice 250K home paid for.
An entry level F250.....cloth seats, not nav........paid for
a 22 foot Carolina skiff, paid for
wife drives a Yukon (he spurges a little on her, for good reason) paid for
30 foot camper to take him the wife, the three kids out, paid for


college for ALL three kids, done, over, paid for.......

kid is going to retire EXTREMELY well.

When I hired this fine young man, it was for 42K garranteed, in six months he went straight commission and never looked back.

But never forgot where he came from either.

Just a little coaching man, that's all.
I've been building successful teams for 21 years now and those that "remain" are those that realize that one day it's gonna rain

Thanks for the wisdom. I have never bought myself a new vehicle so I'm kinda excited. I really do appreciate the advice. Your sales guy reminds me of me. I live in a modest home that's almost paid for and drive a older trailblazer that's paid for. My boat is also paid off. Man I hate owing the man. I just can't take customers out in that old truck.
