1. Performance-Based Bonuses & How to Qualify

Service Club recognizes and rewards vendors who demonstrate exceptional service quality, reliability, and professionalism. Bonuses and incentives are designed to encourage vendors to go above and beyond while maintaining high standards.

Info
1.1 What Are Performance-Based Bonuses?

Performance-based bonuses are additional payments or rewards that vendors receive when they meet or exceed key performance metrics. These can include:

Completion Rate Bonuses – For consistently completing jobs without cancellations or disputes.

1.2 How to Qualify for Bonuses

Vendors can qualify for bonuses by meeting specific criteria set by Service Club. While the exact qualifications may vary, key factors generally include:

Info
Consistently High Ratings

  • Clients rate vendors based on professionalism, punctuality, and service quality.
  • A high average rating (e.g., 4.8+ out of 5) can qualify vendors for incentives.

Info
Reliability & Job Acceptance Rate

  • Vendors who accept and complete a high percentage of assigned jobs are prioritized for bonuses.

  • Maintaining an acceptance rate above 90% improves bonus eligibility.

Info
On-Time Job Completion

  • Completing services within the scheduled time ensures smooth operations and better customer satisfaction.

  • Late job completions may disqualify vendors from bonus eligibility.

Info
Customer Retention & Positive Feedback

  • Repeat clients and strong customer relationships contribute to bonus eligibility.

  • Positive written feedback from customers further enhances performance scores.

Info
Zero or Minimal Complaints & Disputes

  • Vendors with few or no complaints regarding service quality, behavior, or professionalism are more likely to receive incentives.

  • Handling issues proactively and communicating effectively with clients minimizes disputes.

Info
1.3 Types of Bonuses

Bonuses may be structured as:
💰 Fixed Monetary Rewards – A set bonus for reaching specific performance goals.

Notes
2. Late Job Cancellations & No-Show Fees

Service Club operates on reliability and trust, ensuring clients receive services as scheduled. Vendors who cancel jobs last minute or fail to show up without notice may face penalties.

Info
2.1 What Are Late Job Cancellations & No-Show Fees?

  • A late cancellation occurs when a vendor cancels a confirmed job within a short timeframe (e.g., less than 24 hours before the appointment).

  • A no-show happens when a vendor fails to attend the job without notifying Service Club or the client.

  • These actions disrupt scheduling, inconvenience clients, and can negatively impact Service Club’s reputation.

Info
2.2 Consequences of Late Cancellations & No-Shows

Financial Penalties – Vendors may be charged a cancellation or no-show fee, deducted from future earnings.
Lower Vendor Ratings – Frequent cancellations or no-shows negatively impact vendor scores and visibility on the platform.
Loss of Future Job Opportunities – Vendors with repeated cancellations may receive fewer job assignments.
Account Warnings or Suspension – Continuous unreliability can result in account restrictions or termination.

Info
2.3 How to Avoid Cancellations & No-Shows

Confirm Availability Before Accepting Jobs – Only accept assignments that fit your schedule.
Communicate in Advance – If an emergency arises, notify Service Club and the client as soon as possible.
Reschedule Instead of Canceling – If possible, request a reschedule instead of canceling outright.
Set Reminders for Appointments – Use calendar notifications to keep track of job schedules.


Notes
3. Penalties for Non-Compliance or Poor Service

While Service Club encourages vendors to provide top-tier service, failure to meet expectations or comply with platform guidelines can lead to penalties.
