Master Agent Featured Articles

One of the best parts about working on a commission basis is that you have some control over your own income: The more you hustle, the more you can earn. But one of the least pleasant parts is waiting to actually get your due commissions.

That may be one of the primary reasons why Telarus (News - Alert), the master agent for more than 50 suppliers of business data, voice, cloud, and data center services, has released a new commission software module to its network of more than 2,000 North American sales partners.

"This new software is going to save me a ton of time," said Mike Sickle, president of Dynamic Network Advisors and a Telarus partner. "I am one of their partners who uses RPM to process my monthly commission and, although I like all of the custom software Telarus writes and Telarus has never been late on a commission payment, it took my staff time to import the commission data in the format I need to pay my partners.”

Apparently, with this new software that will no longer be an issue. The new commission module replaces the old one found in the Telarus partner back office website, which its partners have used since 2003. Both commission modules were written by Telarus' team of developers in response to partner feedback.

"This was one of the features at the top of our partners’ priority list when it came to suggestions to improve our home-grown back office website and overall partner experience,” said Telarus President Adam Edwards. “With this new module, all of our partners who use commission processing software, like RPM, will have a much easier time exporting their residual commission data into a format that works seamlessly with what they're already using.”

The new solution will be a welcome addition to Telarus’ lineup of award-winning offerings. It joins the company’s patented GeoQuote platform, which combines real-time carrier pricing with advanced research features and branded proposals.
