Sales compensation schemes are fundamental in sales and a great tool in the hands of the sales management. Sales management mistakenly believes that the scheme’s design is an easy job that can be done within a one hour.
The design of a scheme includes various steps, all of them being important to consider. Managing a territory has no real value unless one understands how much revenues and business it can break, what is its potential.
This white paper is analysing the notion of how to set the right targets for the sales force and which are the key factors to consider in the process.
When we design a new sales compensation scheme at C4S, we always keep an eye in the quota distribution and we make sure stakeholders are well educated how to set this correctly.
