Career development plan part- IV Compensation
February 1, 2010
To: Human Resources Manager
From: Chandan Gulati
Re: Compensation Proposal for Sales Team.
The purpose of this proposal is the new compensation plan for our sales team. The new compensation plan should be such that it benefits the company and the employees. “Compensation includes both financial and non financial rewards. Financial rewards include direct payments plus indirect payments in the form of employee benefits. Nonfinancial rewards include everything in work environment that enhances a worker’s sense of self respect and esteem by others, opportunities for training and personal development, effective supervision.”(Cascio, p- 418) .The compensation should be sufficient enough to satisfy basic needs of the employees. Employee equity is very important in terms of internal, external and individual equity. Employee equity is important to enhance optimum performance.
We have merged with EnviroTech and their employee profiles shows that every outside sales representative was given a base pay and they were eligible for sales bonus program as well. The sales representatives of InterClean were just paid straight commission. I believe that outside sales representatives of both the companies have different attitudes towards their work. We have a team consisting of employees from both the companies. “Jim martin who is the vice president of sales” (employee profile) deserves the best compensation which is comparable to the industry standards. He is the backbone of the sales team. He is the one who will motivate the team to do their best.
Our “sales manager Tom Gonzalez” (employee profile) has been selected from EnviroTech. We have to make sure that his compensation is more than what he used to get in EnviroTech. He is innovative, highly experienced and customer focused. We need to retain such employees to proceed

    Proposed compensation strategy: The compensation mix consists of three components: base pay, indirect pay and performance pay. The largest part of compensation package in the company will be base pay. The salary will be calculated on monthly basis. In this industry much depends on employees performance: how they treat customers and how they perform their job duties. That is why part of their salary will depend on their performance results. Performance pay will consist of two parts and coincide 10% of total billings. I will give this bonus to technicians, set the goals every two weeks, set achievable goals on the amount of sales and split the bonus equally between the group. In order to work well this plan must be designed with input from employees. Last part of the commission mix is indirect pay plan that will be fixed benefit system where all employees are covered by a standard package of benefits (Long, 2010 p.445). It will include mandatory benefits, health benefits, pay for time not worked and miscellaneous benefits.…

    Diagnosis: Chiemchanya is the new general manger who needs to design an appropriate sales compensation plan but is concerned there may be some risk with the change. Chiemchanya’s concern of risk is based off two main reasons being: the implementation of the new plan, as well as ensuring the success of the new market strategy. The implementation of the new plan potentially can have an impact on the sales rep’s wallet, so careful thought needs to be given to the communication of the proposed changes. This new plan requires changes in behavior and the sales reps may feel that their income would be at risk as a result. Also, Ponlerd senses that, although important in supporting the new strategy, there are many other things required from the sales program in order to ensure the success of the new market strategy. Chiemchanya needs to consider whether or not all the sales reps are suitable for the new sales role because selling on volume rather than contribution to a focused market segment with a focused set of products are two different selling techniques.…

    The case talks about the compensation model from two different points of view. The sales executives look for ingenious ways to motivate their sales team. They promise exotic trips to their rainmakers. They hold contests when the business is slow. This motivates them to increase their productivity and boosts their morale as sales can be a demotivating job. But on the other hand the finance dept views the compensation plan as an expense to manage. This is because Sales Force Compensation represents the single largest marketing investment for most B2B companies. Thus Finance tries to ensure that comp plans have cost control measures designed into them.…
