Take the 2 min survey
(Survey Closes Friday, March 25, 2016.)
The Coleman Report has published a compensation study of SBA BDOs since 1994. Data is collected in two ways: First, we invite BDOs to self-report their production and compensation numbers. Last year over 150 SBA BDOs participated in the survey. (Participants may report their email address for a free copy of the survey results, meaning that while the published results are anonymous, their identification disclosure probably leads to more accurate information.)
Data is scrubbed to eliminate extreme highs and lows, as well as responses that are incomplete or don’t make sense.
Then, Coleman Report validates these results with direct interviews with a number of lenders to obtain an accurate picture as possible of salary ranges and compensation packages.
