What Founders Get Wrong About Sales Compensation
Episode 149
Thursday, 27 November, 2025
One of the most expensive mistakes founders make happens the moment a salesperson starts performing. Revenue rises. Momentum builds. …and then the first large commission check appears. Instead of celebrating the growth, the owner panics. They see the payout instead of the profit. Here’s the thing: a big commission check is not the problem. It is proof your business is scaling and that’s something to celebrate! If your sales person is making good money - that means you’re making good money. You should definitely be making more than when they weren’t there. And if you’re not - that’s a problem with the plan - not the rep. In this episode of Sales is Not a Dirty Word, common comp plan issues, how owners unintentionally sabotage their best performers and the ripple effect that can end up costing you a lot more money than you save. Listen in to discover: ✔ Why flat commission plans cap performance ✔ The mindset shift that makes big commission checks feel good, not scary ✔ How changing a working plan destroys trust and pushes talent out ✔ Why competitive compensation attracts the top 1 percent of salespeople ✔ How to create a tiered monthly ladder that encourages performance ✔ Why reducing commission always costs more through turnover and lost deals ✔ The real financial impact of replacing a salesperson and why sales has the highest churn rate You’ll learn how to design a comp plan you never resent paying and how to use incentives to shape the behaviors that move your business forward.
