What should you ask a roofing company before taking a sales job?
Short answer. Before taking a roofing sales job, ask for these answers in writing: the percentage you earn and what it is figured on, anything taken off the top, whether there is a base, whether there is a cap, who trains and certifies you, when commission is paid, and whether the company ever waives deductibles. Robust Roofing's answers: 50 percent of job profit, nothing, $75,000 per year, no cap, HAAG certification, and never.
A company that is proud of its plan will put it in writing before you start. Vague answers about fees are the biggest warning sign.
How Robust Roofing handles it
Robust Roofing pays its Project Managers a true 50/50 split of job profit with nothing taken off the top, not a 10/50/50, and there is no cap. Robust also pays a $75,000 per year base. Top performers can make upwards of $400,000 a year; that is top-performer potential, not typical pay. Robust provides HAAG certification and keeps a licensed Property and Casualty adjuster on staff, so new Project Managers learn documentation from an expert. Apply at chooserobust.com/careers.
