Incentive Program: an ally to increase productivity

An incentive program is an efficient tool for those companies that seek to grow their sales and differentiate themselves from their competitors, since they improve the productivity and motivation of employees when achieving joint objectives. Learn about its benefits and how it works.

Did you know that companies that have an  incentive plan  increase their  sales by 50%  and obtain  benefits  of  27%  more than the rest of  the companies  in the sector? According to a  study of labor trends by the multinational Sodexo .

This is accompanied by other advantages such as  dynamizing the commercial area, distribution channels  and   the  sales force,  to retain   employees with strategies and thus, strategically reward compliance with the proposed results. For example, a cash bonus or a catalog of prizes that reward the effort of an employee who generated value for the company.

How does an incentive program work?

“Our starting point is to understand that  motivation  starts from the  aspiration  and being of each collaborator. For this reason, we start with the collection of  information  on each participant, for the construction of the model that best suits them, as well as the analysis of the sector and the company .  With 360° knowledge of the person and the company, we achieve that the expected extra mile results in the employee choosing a reward to their liking or need”, says Manuel del Corral, Manager of the Chain Marketing Process, a company that He has been working for more than 18 years building  incentive models  to support businesses that want to inspire their teams. 

Other key aspects of an incentive plan are:

1

Define objectives

2

Identify the interests of your employees
Be clear about what  motivates  your  collaborators : free time, rewards or money. Based on this information, adapt what type of  incentive  you are going to give your team.

Measurement
Make control boards with the   business  indicators  and the results of the  proposed objectives  . With this point, you will be able to follow up on priorities and detect challenges on time.
