If you’re like most organizations, you’re probably dealing with some serious compensation challenges. According to a survey conducted by QuotaPath: 39% of professionals admitted their compensation plan contradicted business targets and only 1% of RevOps leaders felt strongly that their plans drive business metrics.
There’s a better way to run comp plans. Join Ryan Milligan, VP of Sales and Revenue Operations at QuotaPath, for a detailed discussion on how QuotaPath can help you build compensation plans that motivate sales reps to pursue the right revenue for your business.
“Why do you even have a comp plan? You have a comp plan to motivate a change in human behavior.” - Ryan Milligan
The biggest problem teams are facing is that their compensation plan is not designed to drive changes in behavior. Instead, the comp plan acts as an after-the-fact tool for paying out commissions. This leaves a lot of utility on the table.
For RevOps people, building out and deploying compensation plans can feel like all risk and no reward. They’re time-intensive, incredibly important for rep motivation and retention, and very error-prone. Paying people incorrectly is very risky for the cash profile of the business.
Using QuotaPath, compensation plans can serve as vehicles for aligning seller behavior with important metrics that will deliver the type of revenue your business needs to grow, not to mention improving interdepartmental transparency and trust.

“The rep can see, in real-time, the math behind how much money they're making on deals they've already closed and even forecast future earnings for deals in their pipeline.” - Ryan Milligan
Other tools on the market can automate the process of calculating and paying commissions but QuotaPath is particularly unique. QuotaPath's compensation management system meets the roles and responsibilities of sales, ops, and finance teams to run processes more efficiently and transparently.
The tool syncs with your data’s source of truth and focuses on interpretability. Sales reps can understand the math behind their commission structure and even forecast their future earnings. RevOps and finance teams have real-time insights that allow them to make changes that influence the behavior of their sales reps on the fly.
For example, if your company is aiming to increase gross revenue retention, you can use QuotaPath to implement comp plan drivers that drive multi-year contracts - like multi-year accelerators - which ensure fewer renewal cycles and greater lifetime customer value. In QuotaPath, reps can then run what-if scenarios to see how much more they'll make when securing a multi-year contract over a single-year.
