Upcoming Programs

Sales Force Compensation: Challenges and Solutions
October 11 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EDT

For many wholesale distribution companies, sales compensation is an essential piece of their overall commercial performance. The long-term trends driving change in customer acquisition behavior that were accelerated during the pandemic along with levels of inflation unseen for decades have led many distributors to reexamine the effectiveness of their current programs.
As distributors explore the introduction of new or refined selling roles and look to mitigate the pressures on their bottom lines, they have realized that changes to their sales compensation programs are required.
This session will focus on how sales compensation programs can be developed that support evolutions in selling roles without diminished risk or opportunity for program participants. Attendees will walk away with actionable approaches to mitigate compensation related obstacles along with implementation best practices.
