Siren

Marketron × AE commission

Run account-executive commissions on Marketron

Marketron bills the order; Siren pays the rep. <strong>Siren Cloud</strong> reads billing and collections from Marketron's Integration Suite APIs and runs your AE comp plan on top: a base rate and a higher rate for top performers, with the commission on every order calculated automatically instead of rebuilt in a spreadsheet every month.

Cloud-only. Siren reads Marketron billing to calculate commission; it does not move money or write back into Marketron. Each rep sees their own statement, every order and rate behind it.

Can you run tiered AE commissions on top of Marketron?

Yes, with Siren Cloud. Marketron's own commission report applies a flat rate per rep, so Siren reads its billing and collection events through the Integration Suite APIs and runs two linked rates: a base rate and a higher rate for top performers. Reps start on the base rate, and you promote a rep to the higher rate when they clear your quota. A program group fires exactly one rate per order, and credit reverses before payout when an order goes unpaid.

“Base and top-performer rates calculated on every order, with no end-of-month spreadsheet.” How Siren handles AE comp

How ae commission runs on Marketron

The same recipe everywhere. Here is the path a referral takes through Marketron.

Marketron bills the order

An order is invoiced or a payment is collected in Marketron.

Siren reads the event

Marketron's Integration Suite APIs expose the billing or cash-receipt event to Siren Cloud.

Siren applies the rate

The rep's rate fires based on the tier you have them in, base or top performer.

Payout

Reconciled into a statement each period, with clawbacks on non-payment.

What is specific to Marketron

The Marketron details that change how this program runs.

Tiers

Base and top-performer rates

Two linked rates in a program group. A rep earns the base rate, and you promote them to the higher rate when they clear your quota. Only one fires per order.

Source

Billing or collections from Marketron

Pay when an order is invoiced or when the advertiser actually pays. Siren reads both from Marketron's APIs.

Clawbacks

Reversed before payout

When the billing system reports an order unpaid, Siren reverses the rep's credit before it is paid out, and on your managed plan we can reinstate it if the advertiser later pays. A made-good spot that re-airs is revenue-neutral, so it does not reverse the credit.

What you can reward, and what counts

The reward options and the Marketron events that trigger them for this program.

Ways to reward

  • Base percentage on billing or collections
  • Higher rate for top performers
  • Per-daypart or per-product rates
  • Clawback on non-payment, before payout

What counts on Marketron

  • Order or spot booked
  • Invoice issued
  • Payment collected
  • Non-payment or made-good

Real ways teams run it

Top performers

A higher rate for proven reps

Promote a rep to the higher rate when they clear your quota, and Siren pays that rate on their billed orders from then on, with no spreadsheet at month end.

Billing vs collections

Pay on the event you choose

Pay on invoice or on cash received. Either event comes straight from Marketron, and unpaid invoices reverse the credit.

Mixed plans

Different rates by product line

Run a separate rate for digital or a specific daypart alongside the base spot rate, all on the same install.

Cloud

Tiered Commission Plan

Two linked rates, a base and a top-performer rate, with a group rule so only one fires per order.

The program our team builds and runs for you on managed Cloud, on top of Marketron.

What you need

To run this on Marketron

  • A Marketron system with API access to order, billing, and AR data.
  • A Siren Cloud plan, hosted and set up by our team around your comp plan.
  • Your real rates: base, the top-performer rate, the bar for promotion, and clawback terms.
  • No development work on your side. You supply the comp rules and roster, and we build the connection onto Marketron's APIs.

AE commission on Marketron questions answered

Does Marketron calculate tiered commissions?

Not in tiers. Marketron's commission report applies a flat rate per rep tied to billing or collections, with no base-plus-top-performer structure. Siren reads Marketron's billing events and runs the base and top-performer rates as two linked programs, firing one per order.

Can I pay on collections instead of billing?

Yes. Siren reads both billing and cash-receipt events from Marketron, so you can pay reps when an order is invoiced or when the advertiser pays, and reverse credit automatically on non-payment.

How do the commission tiers work?

A program group holds a base-rate program and a top-performer program. A rep earns the base rate until you promote them to the top-performer tier, which you do when they clear your quota or hit whatever bar you set. The group makes sure only one rate pays per order, even during a promotion.

Can the higher rate kick in automatically when a rep clears quota?

Yes, as part of your managed Cloud plan. The standard setup is tiers you promote reps into; for a hands-off accelerator we build the higher rate to trigger once a rep clears quota, so the promotion happens on its own. It is part of what we build and run for you, not something you wire up yourself.

When a rep moves up a tier, does it apply to the whole period or going forward?

Going forward. The tiers are membership-based, so a rep pays the higher rate on orders from the promotion onward, not retroactively to the start of the period, unless you choose to true that up by hand. This keeps the rate a rep was on at the time of each order unambiguous.

Is quota measured on billing or collections, and over what window?

Siren reads billed and collected revenue from Marketron, so you can see each rep against quota on whatever basis your plan uses, monthly, quarterly, or annual-to-date, gross or net of the agency 15%. Deciding when a rep moves to the top-performer rate is your call from those numbers. Siren runs the tier a rep is in rather than auto-promoting them at a threshold.

Is commission figured on gross or net of the agency 15%?

Whichever your plan intends, and you can set it differently for agency and direct business. Reps are usually paid on net-to-station for agency orders and on the full amount for direct. Siren reads which an order is from Marketron and applies the right base. See the agency-business page for how the 15% is handled.

Can Siren handle a draw against commission?

Yes, as part of your managed Cloud plan. We build a draw against commission into your setup, recoverable or non-recoverable, so a rep on a draw sees the arithmetic they expect. Siren produces the earned-commission math, and the draw handling is part of what we run for you.

Does this replace Marketron?

No. Marketron stays your traffic, billing, and AR system of record. Siren reads its events and calculates what each rep is owed under the plan as written, line by line. What it replaces is the monthly commission spreadsheet.
