    noob question

    No salary as an opener
    $50 a statement
    1% of final deal commission

    Is this fair?

  2. #2
    Better off taking 50%-80% of the profit with no statement bonus.

    Do not walk, but run as far away as you can from that company as humanly possible.

    what does this mean exactly? 1% of the points or 1% of the funded amount?

    That might work in a Vietnamese sweat shop but not in this country.

    1% of the funded amount. Ex: 1% = $1,000 of $100,000.

    I make 1/3 of what the house makes i was told.

    You really think making $1,000 is ok from a $100,000 deal??? Hey, if your OK getting paid 1% on the funded amount...why dont you come work for us...I'll DOUBLE your current commission structure. ha.

    noob question

    On a deal with Funding circle for $500,000 SBA
    I was told the house would make $15,000 and i would make about 5 grand. Mind i'm on a draw for $320 a week. I'm an opener. What is a fair rate for my services? Thank you all. (I'm very new to the business)

    Please keep in mind that the commission structure with funding circle, dealstruck, and other lenders that offer longer "term" loans are completely and significantly different than that of a traditional cash advance lender/factor.

    This probably explains it and pardon me if this was addressed earlier in the thread.

    every company is different and I doubt people want to broadcast what they pay their employees to everyone else on the forums.. What I can tell you is that 1% would be considered low but it also depends on how active you are in getting the deal funded once it comes in. Are you just getting in the paperwork?? All of these things matter. The best advice I can give you is that when it comes to compensation in this industry you want to work for a company that is transparent. You want to know what is going on with your deals where they are and how much the commission is on each one that funds.. How much of that commission you get will depend on how big a role you play in the funding process.

    The only way the numbers will work for you is if the lead gen in your shop is so sick that you make up for the low split on volume.

    Madison,

    In order for me to determine if this is a good deal for a brand spanking new person, I have some additional questions:

    - When they mention $50 a statement, what statement are they referring to? Is this $50 for bringing a completed application package with 3 months of Banks/CCs? Or what is the $50 a statement in reference to?

    - You also mentioned that you make a $320 draw every week, is this in the form of a base pay or what are the requirements to get the $320 every week?

    - Then you will make 1% of the funded amount of the leads you bring in, that are closed?

    - Your job is just to "open"? That is you are on the telephone all day and producing leads, that someone else is going to "close" which involves getting the complete application package? Or do you also collect the full application package but someone else works the deal?

  24. #24
    I make the lead, get paid 50 on a full sub (banks/app+plus any extra needed stips) then someone else sends it out, gets approvals and takes the wheel. I make 1/3 of what the house gets, so if 8 points i get 1/3 of that. By draw i mean im getting my future receivables from any commission i make on a funded deal. They don't want to give me a salary because then i become expendable to them if i don't make the quota
