Dear Levi Bachman,
You mention in your complaint more than once that you are available to be contacted, yet you don’t leave any information to do so, well considering we only had one complaint by a former salesperson about a commission after leaving our company, it was kind of easy to figure out where this complaint came from.
With that said, after reading your complaint I felt the need to respond, not so much to clear our company name, cause if you read your complaint carefully it doesn’t have much substance to damage our name, but because ignorance really frustrates me.
Let’s start with the 1st "real" complaint; you took the job at watermatic cause you were told that you would be given a 5k loan, imagine that! you were offered a loan of $5,000.00 once you started selling and built a pipeline, which, unfortunately you never were able to do, besides the fact that these "loans" don’t exist with the company unless an individual here was to make this arrangement personally (which has happened before as a good deed) but there’s a famous saying that fits perfectly in this situation:
"NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED"
"When I left I was notified that I would lose all the deals that I was working on, all my clients. I agreed EXCEPT for one client."
Lets clear something up here, you only had one (1), Uno, potential client, and if you re-read your complaint, they weren’t a "client" as of yet, they were still considered a "prospect" (if you need a definition of each, feel free to look them up at dictionary.com) as you mentioned, they were trying the unit when you decided to leave the company. Company policy; if you leave Watermatic and a client (paying customer, not someone that you gave a unit to for free to try) calls to purchase another unit, the sale will be reallocated to another salesperson, I am not shy to let everyone know this policy. BUT, in this case an exception was made, after this prospect was reallocated to a new sales person, and the new salesperson did 90% of the work to CLOSE this deal, the salesperson was willing to split the commissions with you 50% / 50% which I may add was EXTREMELY generous of him and by no means was he required to do so, but of course, just like the good deed of the "loan" that never transpired, you were not happy with that, you wanted ALLLL the commissions, all the commissions on a deal that according to company policy, you had no right to even $1.00.. but once again;
"NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED"
I hope my response helps clarify this situation, but more importantly helps you realize when someone is trying to do a good deed, dont push them away, if you live life expecting everything and believing that the world owes you, you will be spending your days writing complaints like this.
Be well and best regards,
