New Paper Offers Proven Ideas to Solve Lackluster Sales
NAPERVILLE, Ill., July 15, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Are your company sales below par and in need of a boost? Instead of the usual pep talk, a new white paper by the Performance Improvement Council (PIC) of the Incentive Marketing Association (IMA) entitled, Enough is Enough: How to Solve Lackluster Sales Performance Once and For All, suggests that the key to success is combining in-house best practices with well designed non-cash recognition and rewards programs.
In the paper, PIC member and Anderson Performance Improvement Company President Louise Anderson presents two compelling case studies that resulted in a 32 percent sales increase for a Fortune 500 company and 37,000 customer demonstrations for a bank's new automated services. According to Anderson, "While identifying difference-making activities is essential to reversing weak sales performance, a strategic and well-executed non-cash recognition and rewards program focused on proven techniques can help transform sales cultures and put them in a better position to hit target numbers."
Jerry Klein, PIC Executive Team member and Maritz VP, says "It is reassuring to know that the key to finding a solution to this recurring problem can be solved with proven resources that are readily available to any company open to modifying its traditional approach to employee compensation."
