If a sales manager can figure out what makes their people “tick,” they can better help them hit their goal numbers. Sales motivation seems like hard work because salespeople often value different things. There are, however, several steps a sales manager can take to establish a motivating environment.

So I grew up in a sales world where there were basically two ways to distribute leads to the sales team: round-robin, or territories. And even when you went to territories, leads were generally routed round-robin in that territory. Four reps? Each got 1 out of 4 leads. As time went on, I learned to modify this a bit. Some reps could handle more leads than others and maintain efficiency.
