Compensation Challenges We Solve

Misaligned Incentives

Reps chase easy wins instead of strategic deals because comp plans reward the wrong behaviors.

Shadow Accounting

Sales teams keep their own spreadsheets because they don't trust the system's payout calculations.

High Turnover

Top performers leave because comp plans feel unfair, unclear, or don't reward over-performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should comp plans change?

Most companies redesign annually. Avoid mid-year changes as they erode trust. SPIFFs and contests can layer on incentives without changing the core plan.

What is a typical sales OTE split?

For AEs, 50/50 base/variable is common. For SDRs, 60/40 or 70/30 is typical. We tailor splits based on role complexity, deal cycles, and market benchmarks.
