1. Introduction 

In the competitive world of sales, companies are constantly looking for ways to optimize the performance of their sales teams. And the proof is in the pudding: according to a study by The Bridge Group, 65% of B2B companies say that the productivity of their sales teams is their number 1 challenge. 

Among the many levers available, commission stands out as one of the most effective tools for stimulating sales motivation and commitment. However, simply offering commission is not enough to guarantee success. Today, it is essential to move on from Excel or Google Sheet to a commissioning tool to exploit their full potential!

To understand this, the Qobra teams went to meet many Heads of Sales, experts involved in the design and management of commissions within prestigious companies, such as Spendesk, Hosman, Pennylane, Welcome to the Jungle, Partoo, Glady, and many others. Their experience and feedback gives us valuable insight into the positive impact of moving from Excel or Google Sheet to a commissioning tool for sales teams.
