When you think of making money through the commission basis money making method you need to look at the drawbacks to be sure you understand what it's entails


With this method you must be working all the time to be able to make your commission

There's no salary for you no matter how many products you sell. at the end of the day.

I don't mind earning on a commission basis. I can make more money if I sell more. That is motivating. However, my requirement is that I need to have a basic salary to ensure that I have a stable income.

The most common setback on the commission basis mode of payment is that there are some bad days that you can hardly make a single sales. On these days Therefore you earn barely nothing.

I agree with you, this is always the fear. there are some bad days that one can hardly make a single sales. this means no money for you on these days

It is a known fact that a commission way of making money is always rigorous exercise.
I agree with you. Most salesmen usually aim to have commissions when selling products to their clients. It is the fuel for them to work harder in their respective companies. They can able to meet their quotas.

I think it works better for some salesmen that's why they usually aim to have commissions when selling products to clients. It is the best way for them to work hard

And a particular period when markets are dullz your eaebj would be at level 0. That's bad enough for any person because there are cycles when markets are generally bad.

This is something that's related to working as a marketing officer. It's not the kind of job I would be interested in getting into. It's too stressful.

You are not assured of anything when earning on a commission basis. There are days you would make good sales and there are days that no sales would come in and you won't have a dime. I don't like the erratic nature of this kind of jobs.

I don't like this method of earning though people earn more via it. But you wouldn't be assured of anything when earning on a commission basis unlike a salaried job

That's the problem with it, your salary depend on your sales and if you are not able to meet up then you get a low salary.This kind of work cannot be depend upon and it's sometimes tasking to find customers at times.

Yeah, your earned money depend on your sales. The higher the sales the higher the commission too. if you are not able to meet up then you might be frustrated along the way

One major draw back is that if there is no sales there would be no money. Unlike working for a salary where even if things are not that smooth for the month you would still be paid.

I think that one of the drawbacks of such earning method is quite obvious. You will earn money only if you make a sale. This is only possible if you work with many marketers and agents who may be willing to sell your products for a share.

I think that the possible drawback of commission earning method is that it can lead to unethical practices by the marketers who might want to do anything including manipulative tendencies just to make sales and earn.
