Do the Guides earn a commission?

[cjones1130]

Just curious if anyone knows how they're compensation is set up. I've always assumed commission was in play but from reading how many guides end up non-responsive this must not be the case.

Guides aren't sales people.

Definitely not. They don't "sell" anything.

That might be a good motivator.... ?

No. What would they earn commission on? They don't sell anything.

No, but I'm sure I can't be the only one that felt it warranted to send my guide a gratuity for going above and beyond re: the delivery process...

They essentially do part of the underwriting and purchaser liaison. Think commission in the sense of a flat rate payment per "deal"; not your standard dealership commission paid to salesmen. It actually surprises me that the thought is they don't receive something for getting deals to close...

they receive a salary presumably.

rivian has as many salespeople as they do people in charge of paid ads.

probably not commission but they might have incentives in their contract that can get them bonuses or some level of extra compensation. wouldnt surprise me since its a direct customer facing role.
