We have been talking with some folks in the Satellite Internet installation 
business.   Their model is much more like this, and as mentioned below, they 
are sticklers about install photos and call backs.   We have adopted some of 
their rigor to help with some consistency issues for installs.   We now require 
12 photos on each job and we have someone audit each job for signal strength, 
etc. within an hour of job complete (before the tech leaves the job site for 
newer techs).   This has helped a lot.   If you are paying bonuses by job, the 
recommendations for extra pictures/ completion form data are worth having the 
techs do.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Paying employees per install/service call

Godo point! I noticed in a thread a couple years back someone said the "bonus 
pay" for the new installs didn't get paid out for a few weeks after the new 
install and it had to be to their "specifications" with documented pictures and 
everything.

Great idea, tempered with caution. There has to be a way to account for install 
callbacks, service calls attended but not resolved, etc.
You don't want to setup a system that rewards someone for screwing up.

I was thinking of hiring my first installer/service tech and I am trying to 
come up with a unique way to pay them that basically rewards effort. Has anyone 
ever heard of having a flat base pay of like $10/hour and then on top of that 
pay them for number of installs / service calls / tickets they get completed in 
that pay period? Basically it will motivate them to do more because their 
hourly rate average will increase with the more they get done. Thoughts?
