Great company! - Director, Global Accounts HelmsBriscoe Employee Review

HelmsBriscoe offers a rare blend of autonomy, flexibility, and supportive leadership. You’re empowered to run your business while knowing you have a team behind you that leads with clarity and integrity.

The role is fully commission-based, which may feel challenging for those who prefer a more traditional compensation structure. However, for self‑motivated individuals who enjoy building long-term client relationships, the earning potential is significant once you establish your book of business.

HelmsBriscoe does nothing and takes half of your commission. They also won't help you collect any past due funds, they won't do any marketing, they don't send you leads, they don't do anything, except let you use their name. It's not all it's crack up to be after you join. You realize you get throw in with the sharks and see some associates get treated with favoritism as they get assigned top big name group accounts, where they work in groups. Then all divide up the commission for big companies that do a ton of events. The associates that get asked to join are only asked if you are someone's friend or favorite if you didn't originally find the account. I suspect that's one reason some of the people make any money. But if you're a lone shark left to fend for yourself, you're not going to make very much doing this full time, unless you started a long time ago like some of the old -timers who have their accounts set for life. If you're new looking to join, unless you come with 20 new clients ready to do 20 events a year, don't expect the company do do anything to help you make any money. If anything they will expect you do all the work and then expect you to pay them half of it.
