๐ผ What Is Sales Commission?
Sales commission is a performance-based payment made to salespeople based on the sales they generate. Commission structures vary widely - from simple percentages to complex tiered systems with quotas and accelerators. This calculator helps you understand your earnings potential and track progress toward your sales goals.
๐ Commission Structures Explained
- Percentage: Earn a fixed percentage of each sale (e.g., 10% of $5,000 = $500)
- Flat Rate: Earn a set amount per deal regardless of size (e.g., $200 per closed deal)
- Tiered: Earn higher rates as you sell more (e.g., 5% up to $10K, 8% on $10K-$25K, 12% above $25K)
- Accelerators: Higher commission rates kick in after hitting quota
- Quota Bonus: One-time bonus for achieving your sales target
