Selling Telecom Technology

Addressing the usual concerns business decision makers have about employing new technology can assist with getting a Telecom Agent’s foot in the door. At NWMAP we put the customer first and we have to be on their side through the whole process; from giving free quotes, bill reviews, and helpful suggestions to implementing the services and products.

Some of these concerns range from acceptance of new technology among employees, cost and extra expenses, confusion, bombarded with too much info, actual convenience and payoff of new technology. For many business owners, everything seems risky in this economy. They are literally trusting their business to you as an agent of Telecom. Technology is not meant to add confusion or anxiety, but rather to aid a business and its people in being efficient, productive, and excited to utilize new tools. The focus must be on their specific needs.

With all the latest technology and affordability we’ve seen in the Telecom industry over the last several years, businesses have the ability to run optimally and competitively. Comprehensive training is also an essential component in making new technological transitions convenient for everyone involved. It is important that people view available Telecom technology as a tool of convenience, not burden in any way, including and especially financially. In essence, this is a job for Telecom agents. Know your products and present it as a cost-saving, convenient way of doing business applicable to everyone and every business.

How To Earn Money as a Telecom Agent

You may already be working, but wish to make extra money. Who couldn’t use that right now? Or perhaps you’d like to get serious about being a Telecom Agent and shoot for full-time money. It’s possible and here’s the nitty gritty of how agents get paid. The traditional paycheck doesn’t really exist. It is replaced with a variety of compensation models, which can be more rewarding, but also a little complicated at first.

Commissions: The heart of any agency is based on a percentage of customer’s billing. These can either be one-time or recurring commissions (residuals) as agreed upon in the contract. Commissions can also vary by whether it is a new account, a renewal, or even a certain product, etc. Commission variables are subject to change.

Residual Commissions: These are monthly recurring commissions (MRC’s) and paid to an agent as a percentage of the customer’s billings.

Upfront Commission and MRC: Upfront commission is a fixed amount per sale, usually based on a percentage of the total contract value. Up front plus MRC is a tactic to motivate agents to acquire new sales and customer acquisition.

Incentives and Promotions: Additional cash, gifts, rewards, chances to win something, are all incentives. Many providers offer promotional bonuses on certain sales, and usually during a certain time period. This is the best way for a new agent to get a jump start on their earnings.
