• The reason for so few dealers
It doesn't pay, and this is applicable to all the beverage sales people/dealers out there.

Thanks to the outwerwebs leaking information leading to Woot commission rates, I discovered leaked info about being a sales rep for Red Bull.

Albeit dated 2008, this was back when Red Bull was more popular than it is today. Compare this data to how many cases of Hangover Joes that are supposedly being sold. By these standards a shipping container isn't very many and results in little profit for the "dealer". Does HJOE management pay their sales people/dealers a weekly rate?:

Base Pay:

Route Sales persons will be paid a weekly salary of $300.00

Commissions:

Commission shall be paid as follows:

3% on the first 200 hundred cases sold in a week.
4% on the second 200 hundred cases sold in a week.
5% on all cases sold over 400 hundred cases in a week.

Example one

52 weeks @ $300.00 = $15,600.00

500 cases a week break down

200 cases @ .96 = $192.00
200 cases @ 1.28 = $256.00
100 cases @ 1.60 = $160.00

Total $608.00

52 weeks @ $608.00 = $31,616.00

Potential annual salary $47,216.00

Wow! you mean to tell me people are selling 2000 cases a week and only making 47k ???????

That is 64k in sales a month or about 750k a year!!! They should be making 75k at the bare bones!!! What a shame.....
