\"independentAn Independent Sales Rep, also known as a Manufacturer’s Rep, is an independent contractor paid on a commission basis to represent your service or product lines in a specific region. Independent reps serve as a company’s outside sales, marketing and customer service. Independent reps’ line cards usually list several related, non-competitive products for a well-defined territory. Independent reps’ compensation is spelled out in the sales rep agreement<\/a>, which covers commission, training, sales materials and payment schedule.<\/p>\n

Contract sales reps work for manufacturers, distributors, importers, sales rep agencies, or service providers.<\/p>\n

This type of sales professional differs from “inside” showroom sales, or telephone sales. An Independent Sales Rep may use the phone, trade shows or showrooms to engage with customers. However, their primary focus is to travel in the field. A rep’s primary skill is the ability to work face-to-face with buyers, showing your products, conducting training, solving problems and converting leads to sales.<\/p>\n

It is very common for Independent Sales Reps to carry several complementary product lines and cover a geographic region that allows adequate coverage for the account base. The size of the region usually rests on its ability to provide reps an income stream that is appropriate for travel and sales expenses.<\/p>\n
