My peer stole my commission

Skill + Do

Whether or not you win your commission credit case over a conflict, you must learn to protect yourself for the future. Recording your contribution also helps you document your value.

So a fox went crazy in the henhouse and stole your commission credit. Shoot…that stinks. While the horse may have left the barn on this one, you have to move forward and focus on two things you can control down the line.

First, it may seem unappealing, but you must reconcile with your peer because, well…because life is short. You’ll want to establish boundaries with your mate" so future friction does not occur. It’s also a good exercise that will help you prevent such an occasion with everyone on the team.

If need be, let some time pass to drain your emotions, then* you should approach the other and establish new boundaries.

Next—and last—learn to protect yourself. Document your contributions to all collaborative sales efforts and record your work. This can help protect you in case similar situations arise in the future. While it may feel unnecessary, think of it as chronicling your skills and documenting how you add value to each account.
