Sales Compensation for the New Economy


Course Description:

It's easy to close business when the economy is booming. But what about when times get tough?

Today organizations are looking for ways to boost revenue and that usually means turning up the heat on the sales force to produce results.  But increasing the pressure on the sales team doesn't always translate into increased revenue.

What can help to motivate your sales force is an overhaul of your current sales compensation plan because it wasn’t designed for this economic climate. 

Yet, designing and managing a sales comp plan is rarely easy, and frankly, it’s never been more important or challenging as it is today.

Find out how a compensation plan designed for the current market conditions can kick your sales into high gear.  Discover the critical factors that can make or break your plan, and the latest ideas and best compensation formulas to keep your sales force motivated. 

By the end of this invaluable CCM audio conference, you’ll know:

  • How to size up your existing plan and benchmark it against the competition
  • Practical methods to set base pay and commission levels
  • Key things to consider when defining sales compensation objectives
  • Best practices for using incentives, contests, and recognition programs
  • How to base quotas and ranges on realistic estimates
  • Tips for balancing individual sales rewards with team-based incentives
  • Best practices for designing and road testing your plan
  • Techniques and tools for monitoring the plan once in place
