Working in sales puts a person face to face with unique professional challenges. Millions of individuals and companies may have a topnotch product or service that offers unparalleled value to consumers, but without a keen savvy for selling, none of those products will move an inch. Unfortunately, people can immediately sense whenever a person is attempting to deliver a sales pitch, and will hoist their defenses up to avoid being subjected to a spiel for a product that they have no interest in. It falls to the salesperson to find a way to communicate effectively with consumers — to determine their needs and desires and to help them discover how fitting the solutions offered by the salesperson can be to their particular situation. Rewarding excellent performance Employers — who are highly likely to have risen from the ranks of salespeople themselves — know all about the challenges to creativity and strategy that their sales force faces each day. They also have a clear picture of how discouraging it can be to miss quotas or fall short of what is expected of them in terms of their performance. With that said, one effective strategy that employers can use to motivate their sales teams to put in their best effort and aim to hit their targets is to offer rewards. Often these can be simple gifts like company merchandise, movie tickets, dinner at a restaurant, or a gift certificate to a popular store. However, successfully accomplishing extra challenging goals calls for awarding extra special rewards. For your sales team, consider offering travel incentive certificates as a way of recognizing your top performers and treating them to a little rest and recreation after all their hard work. A seasoned corporate events planning service can help you put together a fitting travel incentive program to motivate your sales force to perform their best. A trip to see the popular haunts in a different state, complete with fine hotel accommodations; a luxurious three-day cruise; a week long escape to an exotic destination halfway across the globe; professional sports and recreation events in a different country — any of these spectacular incentives are sure to give your salespeople that strong motivational boost to excel. When employees are fully motivated, they can push through their limits and exercise a higher level of creativity and wisdom in accomplishing their tasks. The incentive travel package you set up with the help of experienced event planners — expertly designed to deliver true quality for the winner — speaks volumes to your employees about your eagerness to show appreciation for great work, and will encourage them to strive harder and contribute more to the company's excellence.
"I've been working with Bruce and his team on two projects and they've been great to work with. Bruce has helped us set up a referral/incentive program for us to roll out with our clients and strategic partners. Bruce was great to work with. He's set up a 7 tier program that allows for flexibility and he's also helped us to market the program."
"Beverly arranged and managed the early Envivio Sales incentive trips for us. Each of our events was an outstanding and motivating experience Our Sales team appreciated the attention to detail and to fun. Qualifying for the "trip" was a motivating factor behind many end of year sales pushes. I will use Beverly again in the future."
