International Software Company Case Study

Challenge

Our client’s current incentive program was ineffective and “tired.” The management team felt the program lacked in several key areas, and the sales force had become ambivalent about program participation.

Objectives

Reenergize the sales force with a compelling incentive program that:
  • Showed the team that Kennedy “understood” their business
  • Offer complete new creativity for the program and award structure
  • Provide excellent customer service to participants thereby increasing their satisfaction
Solution

Kennedy chose a location specifically tailored for its appeal to the client’s sales force to present the new program. Program dynamics were completely revamped to motivate the sales force to achieve their quotas.

Results

Within the first 60-days from program launch, the software company experienced:
  • Increased sales participation by +30%
  • Sales increased versus year ago by +8%
  • Incentive winner satisfaction increased 50%
