A commercial agent is an independent consultant who has no subordinate relationship with the company involved. Due to the common interests, the company and the commercial agent work together for the derivation of profits in the company. The more the sales agent develops the company’s turnover, the more commissions he or she will receive. This ensures the company that not only the sales agent will work to retain his customer but also, he will work to develop a new customer database.
The main advantages for a company to work with a commercial agent are:
- Salesforce at a lower cost
- Get acquainted with new clients
- To develop its turnover
- Presence in the market locally
In terms of developing its revenues (commissions), the commercial agent has every interest in maintaining or even improving the quality of the products or services that he distributes. The commercial agent is generally an experienced salesperson, already familiar with the product or service that he wants to distribute as well as the clients to be targeted locally.
Moreover, commercial agents often have a client portfolio. This is logical because the commercial agent is an independent person whose income depends solely on the success of his work.
This is also a major asset for a company that wants to develop new markets without additional investment.
Benefits for the company:
- Savings in training costs (both commercial and technical)
- Existing commercial agent’s client portfolio
- Evade the problems related to recruitment and management of an employee
