MODULE 7
Compensation, Performance, and Expectations
Lesson 7.1
Commission Structure
Sales Partners earn 40% commission on qualifying sales of VCAdvisors.org programs.
Commission is paid on all valid sales that are:
- Successfully completed
- Properly tracked
- Not refunded or reversed
This is a commission-based role.
There is no salary, retainer, or guaranteed income.
Once a qualifying sale is completed and recorded, the associated commission is earned.
Lesson 7.2
How Sales Are Tracked
Sales and commissions are tracked through the GoAffPro dashboard.
Each Sales Partner is issued:
- A unique affiliate tracking link
- A unique sales code
Sales are attributed when a customer completes a purchase using the assigned link or code. Sales Partners are responsible for ensuring their tracking methods are used correctly.
Tracking transparency protects both the Sales Partner and VCAdvisors.org.
Lesson 7.3
Commission Payment and Valid Sales
Commission is paid for:
- Sales of VCAdvisors.org programs
- Transactions completed through approved tracking methods
- Purchases that are not refunded, disputed, or reversed
Commission is not paid on:
- Refunded purchases
- Chargebacks
- Fraudulent or duplicate transactions
Once a sale is deemed valid, commission is payable according to the payout schedule.
Lesson 7.4
Performance Expectations
Performance expectations relate to continued participation.
Sales Partners are expected to:
- Represent programs accurately
- Use approved messaging and materials
- Operate within the scope defined in training
- Maintain professional conduct
Failure to meet these expectations may result in removal from the Sales Partner program going forward.
Lesson 7.5
Standards Enforcement and Program Participation
VCAdvisors.org may review Sales Partner activity to ensure alignment with brand standards.
If standards are not met, VCAdvisors.org may:
- Provide clarification or corrective guidance
- Limit access to materials
- Terminate Sales Partner participation in the program
Termination affects future participation only.
It does not retroactively cancel commission earned on valid, completed sales.
Lesson 7.6
Independent Sales Partner Status
Sales Partners participate as independent, commission-based partners.
They are responsible for:
- How they source prospects
- How they conduct sales conversations
- How they manage their time and effort
VCAdvisors.org does not control schedules, methods, or outcomes, only brand representation standards.
