    Yes but the bulk of the sales bit comes in winning the client in the first place. Most comapanies have supplier lists and it is incredibly hard to break into them. The ones that follow the process below generally don't make money. The salesmen and ones who really know their stuff make £100k upwards. These are the guys who don't need a vacancy - they'll find a good contractor and sell him into an organisation. Agreed, most are chumps who are nothing more than administrators but there are some very skilled salesmen out there if you know where to look.
    Agreed and usually the chumps you talk to are the juniors of the good ones and they are riding on the back of the other guys ability to get into the end client originally - hence when the numpty places you the other guy also gets a cut.

    And so the pyramid grows... or food-chain or whatever you want to call it today
