What is the difference between a commercial agent and a salesman?

The basic difference is that one is a salaried employee while the other is independent. A commercial agent is an independent professional registered in the Commercial Registry. A broker who negotiates and closes sales or the provision of services on behalf of businesses, the commercial agent may have contracts with several companies that he represents or a contract of exclusivity with one sole company. He might employ subagents or salaried staff. He draws up invoices corresponding to the commissions on sales made. He bears the costs of prospecting and selling. The commercial agent has a portfolio of customers. Caution: the commercial agent, an independent profession, should not be confused with: sales assistant, commercial attaché, commercial adviser, sales delegate, technical sales representative, commercial traveller, which are all salaried professions. It is impossible to create a relation of subordination between a company and a commercial agent.
A salesman is part of the company under the same regime as other employees; he is paid on the basis of a fixed salary and, in certain cases, can also receive bonuses or commissions.
You can consult the Agent & Co glossary to look up the definitions of commercial agent and salaried salesman.

How can I change my advert?
