I recently was asked to design my own comp structure as a first sales hire for a new startup. I'd like to poll the group for some ideas. I think the compensation should be fair to both parties given the work and complete lack of sales foundation/process. Not sure the standard 50/50 model would be a fit.
Realistically, what type of compensation structure is equitable for a first sales hire for an early stage startup?
If you were to wave a magic wand, what tiggers/incentives would you put in place that are both simple but mutually agreeable?
