company for 1 year now and everything was fine at first, but
now I do not even get paid my commissions. It has been 2
months now, without any pay. I have called the company several
times, and no one will return my calls. I was forced to submit
my letter of removal from the company. My question to you
would be, what can I do about getting my back commissions?
Thank You,Angry ConsultantDear
Angry Consultant,You are
kind of in a bad situation. I would recommend, contacting the
company in writing requesting your back commissions. I would
also contact the BBB and the Direct Selling Association. They
can not necessarily help you, however you will be able
to file complaints, and get them on document. These things
tend to happy with new companies or companies getting ready to
go under. If you get no response via your letter, the next
step would be to file a small claim in court.The

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Dear WAHP,I am writing today in hope of
getting some advise on a business matter that is bothering me.
I have been involved with a DS company for over a year now,
and just recently they have changed their commission
structure. I used to be labeled as a manager, and receive
commissions from my downline, and now I am just a consultant
and get nothing from my downlines sales. Before the new
structure came out, you only had to have 5 girls under you
with 3 of them active to get commissions from their sales, and
I made a great income just from the sales of my downline.
Now, you have to have 10 in your downline with 8 active to
receive any type of commission from them. My question to you
is, should I stick this out and recruit more or should I look
for another company to work with? Thanks in advance! Any
response is greatly appreciated.Upset ManagerDear
Upset Manager,If I
were in your situation I would be a bit bothered also. I would
say it is unfair to every consultant that was with the company
before this new policy came into effect. Every consultant that
was with the company before the rules were changed, should
still fall under the old rules. Before you make a decision to
remove yourself from the company, try to call the company CEO
or marketing manager, and explain the situation. Let
them know that you were with the company before the new rules
came into effect and that you feel it is unfair for the
consultants that worked hard to get to the old standards. See
how that works and what outcome may come from your phone call!
If nothing, I would think long and hard about a different
career path!The WAHP Network~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Have a question or
