Frequently Asked Questions

You’ll find answers to the most frequently asked questions about Cydcor, our clients, and the independent sales companies below. Please contact us if you have questions that aren’t answered below.

What does Cydcor do?

Cydcor is a provider of outsourced face-to-face sales solutions. We connect some of the world’s most recognizable brands with customers through in-person campaigns in residential, retail, B2B, and event settings.

What is Cydcor’s business model?

Cydcor holds contracts with Fortune 500 and emerging brands to provide outsourced, in-person customer acquisition. We work with a network of independently owned sales companies who carry out the field execution of these campaigns. Cydcor supports clients with training resources, quality control, compliance oversight, and campaign strategy—but does not manage or employ field reps.

What is the relationship between Cydcor and the independent sales companies?

Cydcor serves as the broker between brands and sales execution.

  • Cydcor holds the client relationship.
  • Independent companies operate their own businesses: they recruit, train, and compensate their own people.
  • There is no ownership or control by Cydcor over these companies.

Think of it like a real estate model—Cydcor provides the listing, but the agent (the sales company) handles the transaction.

What is outsourced sales and how does it work?

Outsourced sales is when a company partners with a third-party provider to handle some or all of its customer acquisition. In Cydcor’s model, we manage the brand relationship and field strategy, while independently owned sales companies handle in-person sales and customer engagement.

Why does Cydcor work with independent sales companies?

This model enables flexibility, scalability, and localized entrepreneurship.

Independent companies can grow quickly, adapt to local markets, and focus entirely on field execution, while Cydcor manages brand alignment and compliance at scale.

Does Cydcor set compensation for field sales reps?

No. Compensation for field sales reps is set by the independent companies, based on campaign guidelines provided by the client through Cydcor. Cydcor does not employ or pay individual reps in the field.

Is there base salary or hourly pay for field reps?

In most cases, field roles are commission-based. This means compensation is based entirely on performance—there is no cap on earnings, but also no guaranteed hourly or salaried wage. Some companies may offer short-term stipends during training, but this is rare and varies by business.

Can someone grow their career in the outsourced sales field?

Yes. Many individuals start in entry-level roles and work their way up to management or even ownership of an independent sales company. The industry rewards performance, leadership, and drive—not tenure or titles.

Does Cydcor provide training or support to field reps?

Cydcor provides training resources, brand compliance materials, and quality assurance systems to the independent companies. Field-level training is delivered by those companies, not Cydcor directly.

Cydcor’s model is fundamentally different: compensation is tied only to actual sales made to real customers. There is no income from recruiting others, no enrollment fees, and no pay-to-play model.
