Salary is important to everyone, especially good sales people. Money counts. But what counts more is "fit". This position will pay well and the total earned income for the fortunate invited team member will be driven by measurable results. We pride ourselves on paying well, but we don't pay for entitled mindsets or mediocre performance.
