Job Vacancies
Sales Staff Required.
In Brief.
We are looking for motivated self employed people to help develop a marketing and sales strategy and sell our products and services initially on a commission only basis. As the company grows it is envisaged that this post will become a permanent salaried position.
The Job.
To develop the sales side of the business in accordance with the ethical policies already in place at Labrador Computers.
The ethical policies are broadly:
- Do not lie to the customer - don't promise what can't be delivered.
- Be courteous to the customer.
- No pressure selling - If a customer says "No" they mean "NO"!
- Ensure you are smartly dressed and professional in all your dealings with customers.
To assist in the development of the company. Your input is valued - only by listening to staff and customers can our business succeed.
How you develop the sales side of our business is entirely up to you. Whilst our advertising budget is minimal, the company will endeavour to reimburse you with any costs you incur as long as it has been approved first. All printed materials must be cleared with us before distribution to the public.
The benefits.
We offer our productive associates all hardware and software at cost price as long as you are buying for yourself, or your immediate family.
Any repairs or upgrades to a productive associates computer system will be undertaken by our engineers free of charge, but you must supply (either by yourself or through Labrador Computers) any hardware needed for the repair/upgrade.
You will be self employed. This gives you flexibility to work however you want to. There is no clocking on/off - you decide when you work, how you work and where you work. Ultimately, you are in control of how much you earn.
When a permanent salaried position becomes available, then you will be advised of the position, and invited to apply. Preference to all positions is through length of service and commitment shown to the company, as well as aptitude to do the job.
Training will be given in any area of the company you desire subject to time and viability. Unfortunately we are not currently in a position to pay for training, but will assist by giving you the opportunity to try out what you have learned providing it does not impinge on customer service.
Expectations.
What time you put into this business is entirely up to you. For you to earn a full time equivalent wage of £252.40 for a 40 hour week (equivalent to minimum National wage if you are over 21 years old) Labrador Computers needs you to bring in 22 customers (who have repairs done) per week. The pay structure can be further broken down as follows:
- Repairs - 20% of labour charge plus 5% of profit on parts needed.
- Hardware Sales - 5% of profit made on all hardware.
- Software Sales - 5% of profit made on all software.
- Computer Systems - 10% of profit made on all full systems sold.
- All other services (e.g. networking, data recovery, data backups, virus and other malware removal) - 20% of labour costs plus 5% of profit on parts or software needed.
- On prior agreement with us, we will offer 80% of profit made if you perform a repair on a customers machine.
- Returning customers will also bring a similar income to the sales staff who introduced them to Labrador Computers.
