Intrinsiq Tips & Tricks: Simplifying Agent Commission Management
In this edition of Intrinsiq Tips & Tricks, our Sales Manager Jonas Farrugia highlights one of the most important tools for schools when dealing with Agents: Agent Commission Management. Designed to simplify commission tracking and reduce administrative workload, this feature gives schools complete visibility and control over agent agreements and payments.
Why Schools Rely on Agent Commission Management
Schools benefit from several key features that make managing agents and commissions straightforward:
1. Automatic Commission Calculations
Commissions are calculated automatically when a booking is entered under an agent, reducing manual work and ensuring accuracy.
2. Flexible Commission Structures
Set commission rates for different charge types, including tuition, accommodation, and other services.
3. Complete Commission History
All commission records are stored within the agent profile, providing a clear audit trail and easy access to historical information.
4. Agent-Specific Pricing
Create customised pricing and special agreements for individual agents, with rates applied automatically to relevant bookings.
5. Centralised Communication
Diary and Email tabs allow schools to keep all agent communications and internal notes in one place.
How It Works
Setting up agent commissions in Intrinsiq is simple:
Go to Marketing and select Add Agent
Enter the agent details
Add the default commission percentage
Save the profile
