Sex.com Broker, Jeff Gabriel Is Leaving Sedo.com

2011 January 10
by Michael H. Berkens

Star broker Jeff Gabriel, who brokered the record setting sale of Sex.com  for $13 Million has resigned from Sedo.com.

Jeff told me that he is “really gratefully for the opportunity that Sedo gave me and I want to thank the whole team.” and that he is  looking for new opportunities in 2011.

We wish Jeff the best of luck in his future endeavors.

    Sedo’s loss. I wish Jeff well. I’m sure he has something big planned.

    Sedo has lost quite a few people over the years. I wonder what’s up with that.

    It does seem like there has been a noticable high turnover….. wonder if there was a disagreement on JG’s bonuses/comp/profit splits relitive to his high sales production ?? or the newly revealed overall commission structure ??

    A star broker – works very hard and is always fair. Sedo needs to do whatever it takes to retain him. Afterall he has the highest ever booked .com sale for $13M and the highest ever .org sale $1M for poker.org.

    How many brokers work for Sedo?

    Personally I don’t know but I’m thinking like 10 or more.

    I know Tess left in 2010 not sure who else left so I guess we would have to know how many brokers they have to knwo the churn rate.

    My understanding is that Jeff decision to move on had nothing to do with any dispute and was very amicable.

    I would assume that Sedo’s brokers will get a share of that extra commission they are charging.

    has to be commission related, most companies try to screw sales reps after huge deals, sad and quite short sighted of the company

    if that’s the case (I should add) – just theory
