Commissions and Discounts
We have a simple two-step system. You receive a percent commission in cash.  Then, if you choose to, you can purchase books from the display at a sponsor's discount.  This way you have complete control of the makeup of your profits.  If your Commissionable sales are over $1000, you are eligible for our rebooking premium of $50 (retail) worth of free books.  Click on month for rates. (Staff Educational Purchases for school use are discounted 30%.)
