Tying It All Together Designing
a comp plan is like closing a deal: – Remember your target audience – Know what you want them to do – Show them how to get there – Tell them what the results are – Be consistent in your delivery

Accounts

Think About It for a
Moment

• Best buyer market segments
(segment top 20%) o Industry, employees, revenue, geography, other proprietary metrics • Average deal size per segment • Total number of potential accounts per segment (mapping markets) • What percentage of leads should convert to customers • Number of activities it takes to close an account • Goal for how long it should take for you team to work through each market segment B2B Sales Comp Plan Metrics

• 25000 potential accounts •
3 key contacts per account (75,000 contacts) • 8 activities per contact on avg (24 activities per account) • 600,000 total activities to exhaust the list • New reps can accomplish about 600 activities per week • 600,000/600 = 1000 weeks • If the goal of the company is to exhaust the list in 12 months, it will take ~18 sales people (1000/56 = 17.85) Sample Target Segment Analysis

Top 3 best buyer segments
for example company: 1. Technology companies in USA have an average deal size of $10000 and close at about 5%. (Assuming 600 combined call/email activities completed per rep, per week.) 2. Manufacturing companies in USA have an average deal size of $3000 and close at about 10%. (Assuming 600 call/email activities completed per rep, per week) 3. Banks in USA have an average deal size of $20000, close at about a 4% clip (Assuming 600 call/email activities completed per rep, per week) Example of Compensation Calculation

You can calculate your annual
revenue per rep with a clear understanding of your avg deal size and close rate. 1. (5% closed) = 1250 new accounts * $10K avg deal = $12,500,000 • $694,444 revenue per rep • $104,000 - $208,000 (comfortable salary + commission range) 2. (10% closed) = 2500 new accounts * $3K avg deal = $7,500,000 • $416,666 revenue per rep • $62,500 - $125,000 (comfortable salary + commission range) 3. (4% closed) 1000 new accounts * $20K avg deal = $20,000,000 • $1,111,111 revenue per rep • $166,666 - $333,333 (comfortable salary + commission range) Example of Compensation Calculation
