Forums: Discussions for entrepreneurs and small business.

I am at a stage of my start-up where I need to hire people on a commission based only. I guess I can hire them as consultant. They do not then need to be on a payroll, pay taxes from company (of course they pay taxes on their own), etc. They get paid for the service they provide.

Are there restriction to the title I give them if they are consultant? For example, do I have to call them sales consultant on the contract instead of sales director?

I am looking for a free legal form online to enter their incentive in a legal form. Any recommendation? I cannot afford a lawyer to make the document.

Great question and great response Juanita. The terms used is indeed very important - an independent consultant, free lance, contract worker are not considered employees of the company. I think I will review the law depot site myself.

Wish you great success!

Not to sound like a self-serving attorney, but be careful with those "free" forms.  You get what you pay for.
