Rewarding Sales Behaviors You Want Repeated – Harry Alexander

Rewarding Sales Behaviors You Want Repeated – presented by Harry Alexander

The only reason for rewarding sales behaviors is that they have and will produce significant results for our salespeople, us as managers, our customers, and our company – IN THAT ORDER! By the way, get them out of that order and you will fail…

So, we all want the results – ones that:

1. Cost us the least
2. Gain us the most
3. Last over time.

The problem though is “How do I gain results that follow these common sense guidelines?”

Description:

Well, we’ve all heard the saying that “We get what we deserve…” and that is so true in this case. In a recent conversation with a fellow sales executive, we both agreed on the following: EVERY ONE OF US KNOWS WHAT THE DESIRED RESULTS ARE BUT REALLY MAY NOT HAVE A HANDLE ON THE “HOW TO GET THEM”

So, let’s do a quick review of on some of the “HOW TO GET THEM” historical methods:

1. Fire the salespeople who don’t get the results… Well, how did they become failures given that they could and should have done the job? And it sure violates rule # 1 – firing a salesperson is probably one of the most expensive actions you can take – saving them is allot easier and HUGELY MORE PROFITABLE FOR YOU AND YOUR COMPANY!
2. Change the compensation system which rarely works because such “new” plans fail on rules # 2 and # 3.
3. Introduce “spiffs” and other such temporary contests and monetary rewards. The problem is that it fails rule # 3 even if they work.

In summary, here’s the common sense solution:

• Identify the sales behaviors that you want repeated (and there are only 6!).
• Create a Program that is:

  Self motivating

  Self funding (and that alone is a corporate free lunch for everybody!!!)

  Self sustaining.

• Have a supporting Measurement Program that in “real time” (not at the end of the month when the damage is already done…) lets you know when your sales people may be headed towards failure.
• Generously reward those behaviors to the point that your salespeople are even astonished!
• Make this Program a permanent one and shoot any bean counter that tries to eliminate it.
