AGENDA AT-A-GLANCE

SALES COMPENSATION GRAVITY: HOW REVENUE GROWTH DRIVES SALES COMPENSATION

DAVID CICHELLI, REVENUE GROWTH ADVISOR, THE ALEXANDER GROUP

What's the best sales compensation programme? It depends on the revenue growth of the company. High-growth companies use one set of sales comp solutions, while slower growth companies use different pay programmes. Learn how the four phases of revenue growth influence features of sales comp plans. Understand why special sales programmes – such as solution selling, new product focus and insight-led selling – need new sales compensation solutions.

CASE STUDY #1: SCC

DAVID FISH, PROJECT ACCOUNTANT, SCC & MATT BLANCHARD, VICE PRESIDENT SALES – EMEA, VARICENT

SCC, one of Europe’s largest independent IT groups, made huge gains in calculating and managing commission payments through a sales performance management solution. However, faced with new challenges and changing business conditions, SCC realised they had a lot more to gain. Attend this session to hear the lessons SCC learned when replacing their in-house system with Varicent, and how they now support their 300+ payees with sales commission dashboards for deep insights into their sales team’s performance trends.

CASE STUDY#2: KEYLOOP

JEREMY WILSON, DIRECTOR OF SALES OPERATIONS, KEYLOOP & JAMESON RILEY, PRINCIPAL, THE ALEXANDER GROUP

Keyloop, a leading provider of integrated technology solutions to the automotive industry, identified an opportunity to increase revenue growth through alignment of sales roles and compensation plans. Learn how updating compensation plans to include growth-oriented metrics and mechanics supported the Keyloop team in outperforming target during the challenging COVID-selling year.

CASE STUDY #3: DSM

MISCHA BIJL, TOTAL REWARD MANAGER, DSM & ANDY MILLS, ACCOUNT DIRECTOR, OPENSYMMETRY

Taking on the daunting task of selecting and deploying an effective sales compensation solution can be challenging for any organisation, especially when working with an approaching deadline being imposed by your current provider. Join us to discuss DSM’s efforts to improve their sales performance with the adoption of a new SPM solution and the introduction of key process improvements.

EFFECTIVE SALES COMPENSATION – ADOPT BEST-PRACTICE BUILDING CODES

DAVID CICHELLI, REVENUE GROWTH ADVISOR, THE ALEXANDER GROUP

Less than effective sales compensation programmes suffer from poor design decisions. Powerful and aligned sales compensation plans subscribe to a set of company-defined building codes – that is, well-documented sales compensation design principles. Learn how HR-sponsored ‘fixed designs’ and organization jobs can imperil a sales organization. Use these best-of-breed principles to build effective sales compensation plans that are simple, easy to understand and reward the right results. Edit the suggested ‘Guide to Sales Compensation Design’ for application at your company!

EMPLOYEE REWARDS REDEFINED

ALEKSANDRA ARHIPOVA, HEAD OF EMEA NORTH, BEQOM

Companies today spend a lot of money on rewarding and incentivising their employees, but not all of them are doing this in the most effective way. Considering the paradigm shift that the world has undergone this past year, leaders need to be more aware of their employees’ needs to know how best to support them.

HOW DOES SALES COMPENSATION SUPPORT DIGITAL SELLING?

MATT GREENSTEIN, PRINCIPAL, THE ALEXANDER GROUP

Sales departments are rushing to adopt digital sales tools. Alexander Group’s research shows that leading organisations have introduced new job roles, new processes, and updated tools to support new digital selling motions. Current sales compensation practices need to be updated too. The pandemic has pushed the adoption of virtual and digital tools. Compensating these new digital roles creates new challenges for sales compensation professionals. Which roles should have at-risk compensation? How does the market reward indirect sales influence? This session will discuss the emerging sales compensation trends that will only accelerate into the digital sales future.

WHO ATTENDS

We are expecting a senior audience of 100-150 practitioners with responsibility for managing sales compensation from some of the major brands and forward-thinking organisations in the UK and mainland Europe.
Here’s a sample of the delegates who attended our 2019 conference:

CASE STUDY #3: DSM

FROM STRATEGY TO SERVICE – HOW A GLOBAL PRODUCT COMPANY ACHIEVED SPM ULTIMATE SUCCESS WITH THE HELP OF A BOWTIE

MISCHA BIJL, TOTAL REWARD MANAGER, DSM

ANDY MILLS, ACCOUNT DIRECTOR, OPENSYMMETRY

Taking on the daunting task of selecting and deploying an effective sales compensation solution can be challenging for any organisation, especially when working with an approaching deadline being imposed by your current provider. Join us to discuss DSM’s efforts to improve their sales performance with the adoption of a new SPM solution and the introduction of key process improvements. Through adoption of OpenSymmetry’s proven Engagement Model (the ‘bowtie’), we pull back the covers on key steps and considerations leveraged to ensure DSM was equipped to make the right decisions and apply the correct level of effort at each step.

Starting with a programme assessment (what was working and what wasn’t), going into a vendor evaluation (what technology to look at), and ending with the deployment, this discussion case study will look past the normal discussion points and dial in on critical items that are often overlooked by teams going through this type of a transformation. Irrespective of whether a customer’s journey is driven by a fast-approaching date or by a longer-term strategy, our goal in showing these insights is to ensure participants walk away with key decision and reference material that will make their journey toward best practices (for SPM) a more successful one.

What you will learn:

  • Model/approach leveraged to ensure an effective self-evaluation – SPM assessment
  • SPM market scan – focusing on key differentiators between leading SPM solutions
  • Project readiness components – a checklist to ensure you are ready to kick-off your project
  • Deployment/implementation success criteria – tips and tricks to ensure a successful deployment
  • Lessons learned – recap of the process, sharing feedback and insights gained
