How much do furniture sales people get paid?
How much do people that sell furniture in a furniture store get paid? Is there a base pay rate plus commission? What is a normal commission rate?
Answer:
Normally, salespeople are paid strictly on a commission basis in furniture stores. Common commission would usually run about 15% of gross profit on the item.
Now, this can change from store to store. Some pay a base salary, but usually for just a short time while you learn the ropes. After the learning period, the salesperson usually wants to end the salary and go straight commission because it pays more.
I've seen some stores advertise that they pay their salespeople a salary. I don't know how that would work, but I'm thinking there would have to be something there we're not aware of, as what would keep the sales staff from sitting on their fanny all day rather than helping customers?
