Practitioner Salaries

Hello list,

I would like to hear from practitioners and business owners/managers as
to how much you compensate CO's, CP's, and CPO's. Especially how the
numbers are derived, i.e.:

What base salary do you pay or are paid base on what information.
How many years experience (is experience based on years in the field,
years after certification or a combination of both.)
Do you pay/get a percentage of sales or net sales (actual received
amount) as bonuses and how often.
Do practitioners receive a bonus or more salary when they get certified,
if yes how much?
How much time are you required to work per week?
What health and retirement compensation do you get?
Are you required to take call?
Are you paid mileage?
Is your cell phone paid for or do you get reimbursed if so at what rate?

I am looking for more objective ways to calculate practitioner salaries
and compensation packages especially when you have practitioners with
different work ethics and attitude.

Thanks in advance,

Rick, CPO
