Jazz, agreed.
my mom was a sales person for many years and the perks dried up. all the little give aways that went to the clients to court them. this was anything from tickets to disneyland, theater, sports, to tshirts, beach towels and umbrellas.
But what never got touched was awards for sales targets. trips to the bahamas, hawaii, with all expenses and incidentals paid. get in the "inner circle" of sales and the awards got better.
From what I understand the incentives still stayed in place, but the revenue needed to be generated increased.
theif, you should also know that some sales people work strictly based on commission. I know that some life insurance sales people are like that. So if you want to motivate them, it has to be more than just the pennies of the commission.
