Generally, sales positions have pretty clear goals in place and they are usually not "work at least 40hrs a week".
As long as he meets the goals that the company sets, i don't feel like either employer has a legitimate right to dictate what he does in his spare time.

He needs to look carefully at the job requirements for both jobs to make sure he is able to fulfill both simultaneously. Do they require him to be available or on call during specific hours? If both do, then he could be in conflict if both need him at the same time. Do they require him to spend a specified amount of time on certain activities? If so, they probably expect that time to be used exclusively for their activities and not split with someone else's. Can he spend the required time for each separately?
Chances are that both companies expect him to devote a certain amount of time exclusively to them. If he's splitting his attention during that time, he's not living up to the requirements of the job and the companies will not find that acceptable.
Bottom line is the point you already made. If it's truly no problem, then he should be able to tell both companies what he's doing and expect no negative feedback. If he thinks they would react negatively, then they probably expect him to do something he isn't doing.

No way he doesn't have a confliction at some point right? Seems like it wouldn't be worth the trouble

I imagine that most that are responding have not been in sales . As others have said once he gets a company car or benefits he's an employee and most likely has a base salary. Good luck thinking you're going to be successful at either one giving 50% of your time. Or you spend all your time with one till the other fires you, at least you get double pay for a while. Or in my case the company you are cheating on buys the other company you're working for, not a good day.
