A collection of some of the most frequently asked questions
What is a company principal?
There are many terms used to describe the word Principal but for all accounts and purposes the Principal of a company is typically the company owner, founder, partner or other person of high rank within the business.
The Principal of the company - whether it's a manufacturer or supplier of a service - will be the person(s) who are directly responsible for the relationship between the agent and company.
Companies may have many reasons for outsourcing their company's sales requirements to self-employed sales agents. These may include:
- Accessing new Markets where their existing employed sales force have limited knowledge or contacts.
- Partnering with highly experienced sales reps that have come from a successful sales background.
- Having their products or services sold alongside other non-competing lines that an agent carries. This ensures a much greater exposure to clients who are potentially needing what you have to sell.
- Accessing a greater pool of sales talent with relevant industry knowledge.
- Eliminating the financial risk of employing an in-house sales team.
