Sales Representative Salaries in the United States

"Payments were based on commission. In order to maximize the commissions made, it was ideal to use suggestive selling techniques. Sales Reps began on the floor making 45% commission on each item they sold. As you move up to Sales Lead positions, it increased to 65%. Assistant Managers increased to 75% and management received 85% plus departmental and store wide bonuses per quarter."
