There Are No Paid Vacation Days For Commission Salespeople
Best just to say it loud and clear so everyone REALLY understands: There are ONLY days that commission salespeople chose not to earn commission but no actual paid vacation.
Good to point this out regularly not to be negative but to reinforce the job description of a commission radio salesperson. PDs have paid vacations, as do air personalities, but it is impossible to give a commission salesperson paid vacation. Also, good for the rest of the staff that do get paid vacations to understand this difference as well, as it will stop some of the questions about long sales lunches, etc. Once the paid vacationeers on staff understand how the unpaid vacationeers approach to their day, it would create a stronger team through increased empathy and understanding on each side of the dynamic.
