Sierra is the owner of a small company that sells handmade crafts online. She decides to hire Toby as her sales representative to help expand the business. Sierra and Toby agree that Toby will receive a commission of 5% on all sales he makes. Toby is given a list of customers and is told to contact them and try to make sales.
