Hi list!�� Our company is about to engage with a few online sales people to sell our custom ad units to their agency and direct contacts.�� We're hoping to bring them in with sales comp only, no salary, at least initially.�� We have a lot of page views on a large site network: over 10 million page views spread across more than 500 sites with estimated CPM of $10 for the given vertical -- which is below the industry rate and should be easier to sell for the sales people.
So whats a fair percentage amount to offer them?
Felix.
