Typically, that means that a person makes an hourly or weekly salary, but also makes addtional pay based on sales of a product. For instance, you might make $10 per hour, but you also get 3 percent of all your sales.

If you sell $3000 worth of products in a week where you worked 40 hours, you would make $400 ($10 per hour times 40 hours) plus $90 (3 percent of $3000).

A base salary is when you get paid a smaller amount that you can count on in pay for your job. The commission is what you get when you sell something which is added to your base pay.

How do veterinarians earn money?

Veterinarians earn money through completing their job duties and assignments, same as most other employees. However, veterinarians have the task of providing customer service to owners and medical services to animals. Also, there are two basic models for how a veterinarian is paid - salary and commission. Under the salary model, a veterinarian is paid a set amount of money per pay period regardless of the work performed or the hours worked. Under the commission model, a veterinarian is paid a set percentage of the revenues he/she generates for his/her employer. There is also a blended model called base plus commission that provides a commission to a veterinarian who generates revenue above a set amount.


What are opinions on Webb Consulting Inc.?

It's a Ponzi scheme. Don't fall for it. They advertise saying they are looking for manager trainees. But what they really want is someone to do business-to-business sales work that takes you all over the place. They don't commit to a salary, either. Just "base pay plus commission." Don't waste your time with these folks.
