I was talking with one of the company managers recently and they had brainstorming session tossing ideas around. One idea they had brought up was having a basic street level that every agent is at. The up lines would have a standard margin. Let's say the agent commission is 110% and the up line had a spread of 10%.
Then the agent would have monthly points where he would increase by 5%, 10% or 15% for that month. The up line agency would be at the same spread no matter what the agent got but if the agency hit much larger agency production goals they would get a 5% bonus at some point too.
They were sort of comparing this to the lead credits that several companies use now. With the lead credits, real producers get a commission bump and BSers don't.
It does put everyone on a pretty fair playing field. Might not be great if the company doing it that way was not one of your top two though.
What are people's thoughts on something like that?
