How I Made $8,000 Per Month Per Agent
In this monologue, the speaker explains his method for evaluating the performance of a writing/agent operation by dividing total volume by the number of active writers, yielding an average monthly revenue per writer. He cites figures from his own organization—$8,000 per writer with 6,000 writers, and $12,000‑$14,000 per writer when the team was under 100—emphasizing that these numbers reflect a focus on getting writers paid rather than on hiring or contract metrics. He criticizes companies that reward leaders based on the number of contracts signed or people onboarded, arguing that such metrics ignore actual revenue generation and the core goal of paying contributors. The overall message is a call to prioritize compensation for writers over superficial hiring or leaderboard statistics.
