If there were no sales, how was he getting paid? I'm assuming there is also a risk management/compensation moral to this story as well. You paid someone a commission before a customer had written a check. If the customer later changes their mind (or in your case, does not exist), you would have to get the money back. Even if they had been legit customers but later changed their mind, getting money back is never a good thing to do. I presume you don't compensate like that anymore.

- tstegart 18y agoThats good to hear. I'm glad you guys are still going after that.
