Compensation Programs
•Quotas are often used with compensation plans. A quota is a target level used to motivate and evaluate performance.
•A quota-bonus plan provides sales associates with a bonus when their performance exceeds their quota.

•The group incentive encourages salespeople to work together in their non-selling activities and while handling customers so that the department sales target will be achieved.
