I'll actually give some of my employees a raise. I may raise prices on a few items but not a lot and not on everything

I pay my office manager a straight salary plus bonuses based on production. Of course he's not helping the agency produce what it should so I'm not sure how much longer I'm going to give him. I like to give every employee I hire at least 2 months to show what they can do. After 3 months they get a raise. Anything after that is commission based. In fact last year I was forced to fire my telemarketers because of the no call list. They were both cute little high school girls with sweet voices. I was paying them 7$ an hour from 4-7pm and a 5$ bonus on every policy written from their calls.

Production pays...not waiting for the govn to give you a handout.
