Sign Up FreeWhat high paying jobs can I get without a degree?
The usual options are skilled trades, commercial driving, and sales. They trade off in the same way: the more certain the pay, the more training or licensing you'll usually need first. Commission sales is the quickest to start and the least certain to pay.
Four paths worth comparing
Skilled trades
Electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians are often paid well, and many start through paid apprenticeships. It usually takes years to become fully licensed.
CDL truck driving
A commercial license can be earned in weeks, and companies hire nationwide. The trade-offs are the cost of training and, on some routes, long stretches away from home.
Licensed sales
Real estate and insurance can pay well on commission. You'll need to pass a state exam and pay licensing costs before you earn anything.
Door-to-door sales
This has the lowest barrier to start. There's no license or degree, and pay rises with what you sell. It also has plenty of rejection and no guaranteed income.
Pay and requirements vary by state and employer, so check the current details wherever you live.
Why job size matters more than effort alone
Doorden pays a flat 12%, so one big job can pay the same as many small ones. Job values below are examples; the business sets its own prices.
| Job value | Your 12% | For example |
|---|---|---|
| $300 | $36 | A driveway wash |
| $1,000 | $120 | A full exterior clean |
| $3,000 | $360 | A larger painting job |
| $10,000 | $1,200 | A roof replacement |
Bigger jobs are usually harder to close, and homeowners take longer to decide on them, so it can make sense to learn on smaller services first. See how much you'd need to sell each week.

Frequently asked questions
Is Doorden a high paying job?
It can't be called one with any certainty. Doorden is commission-only, so pay depends on what you sell. The commission rate is fixed at 12% and there's no cap, but there is also no guaranteed income, and Doorden doesn't publish average earnings because the platform is still young.
What makes commission work pay more?
Two things: the size of the job and how often you close. The same 12% pays $36 on a $300 job and $1,200 on a $10,000 job. That's why what you sell can matter as much as how many doors you knock.
Can I get a high paying job with no experience?
Some paths accept beginners, including apprenticeships, CDL programs, and commission sales. Be careful with any listing that promises high pay with no effort or asks you to pay to be hired. Doorden is free to join and promises no particular income.
Do I have access to the highest-value jobs right away?
Not always. Higher training levels give you access to more businesses and higher-value jobs. Level 1 is included, and Levels 2 through 4 have a one-time fee. What's available also depends on which businesses are active near you.
Is Doorden available in my state?
You can sign up from any US state. Businesses are still joining, so the number you can partner with varies by area.
