The other good thing about commission is that you always know your cost %. In other words, in a commission structure set at 10%, with a 5% bonus, you can't exceed personnel costs of 15% (obviously), whereas with fixed salaries, that percentage can be very high (if revenues are low) or very low (if revenues are high).
Furthermore, commissions can be set on a sliding scale...example:
$100,000 to $1,000,000 in revenues...commission is 5%
$1,000,000 to $5,000,000....7%
$5,000,000 to $10,000,000...9%
etc, etc....you get the picture.
That way, in low revenue situations, you actually have a LARGER margin % vs. personnel costs.
