Sales Incentive Program Oct 2016- Sept 2017

Attn:  Purchase Partners Outside Sales

Purchase Partners is aggressively looking to boost sales in the next 12 months by 16% or approximately $1 Million.   In addition to offering the standard 5% commission, the company will pay an additional $5,000 for every $100,000+ in salesThis equates to a 10% commission in that time frame.  To receive the additional 5%, the salesperson will need to have on the books and/ or have shipped (any combination) $100,000 or more dollars in product in that time period.

How it works:

  • Salesperson will receive normal 5% commission during the period of Oct 01, 2016 through Sept 30, 2017
  • Once the sales person has reached the $100,000 threshold, they will receive an additional 5% commission for all orders that have already shipped, and will be paid 10% on all orders shipped from that point until Sept 30, 2017. 

Maybe you will be the recipient of a $5,000 check…$10,000 or $20,000 bonus payment?

How can you achieve this goal?

Purchase Partners has seen their most significant growth in the past 5 years with customers that have volume parts we can source offshore (regardless if they are currently sourced by the customer offshore), with accounts that Purchase Partners has established as a VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory) account, and customers that are looking to do more single source supply purchasing.

Products we are selling high dollar volume on new business in 2015-2016 are:  Large CNC parts, Castings, Forgings, Grounding Split Bolts (Brass), Stampings

How can we achieve this goal with you?

We plan to start reviewing high volume opportunities we may have looked at in the past 5-6 years, develop pricing, and provide these quotes to you.  We in turn expect for you to make a call on these customers, present the quotes in person, and ask them for the order.  It will be our intention to price these quotes where we believe it will offer them a cost savings.  By asking for the order, we believe it will expedite the opportunity to gain the business (won or lost order).  The more time we give the customer, the less likely an order will be received.
