Sales Performance Management FAQs
At its core, sales performance management software (otherwise known as SPM), helps companies plan, manage and optimize revenue performance at scale. Replacing spreadsheets and disconnected tools with real-time, connected data, SPM software typically includes the ability to build and launch robust sales plans, and automate incentive compensation management.
Sales performance management software improves sales performance through data-driven capacity, territory, and quota planning, as well as through seller activation and incentive compensation management. Connecting every aspect of sales performance management powers better, faster decision making, giving sales reps the time, clarity, and motivation they need to sell more, faster.
Salesforce SPM orchestrates planning, enablement, field execution, and compensation, natively within our AI-powered CRM. Sales Planning builds balanced territories and quotas; Sales Programs delivers guided coaching in the flow of work; Salesforce Maps optimizes field routes and account visibility; Salesforce Spiff automates commissions with real-time visibility. Connected data removes tedious manual work and empowers managers and leaders to make faster, more accurate decisions.
Sales performance management software (sometimes referred to as SPM) has a number of key features, including: territory design, capacity, and quota planning (Sales Planning); guided seller activation (Sales Programs); route optimization and location intelligence (Salesforce Maps); automated commission calculation and tracking (Salesforce Spiff). AI is built into every layer, from generating sales plans faster, to delivering commission insights directly to sales reps.
To choose the right sales performance management software, consider the features necessary to support your business complexity, connectivity with existing sales and CRM systems, timeline to implement, user-friendliness, customizability, and AI governance and security.
The measurement of sales performance by SPM software is measured in real time across the plan to paycheck cycle. In disparate and legacy tooling, metrics were primarily displayed via a dashboard or periodic report within the platform. Modern platforms allow managers and leaders to access, measure, and analyze sales performance management data using both built-in agents and 3rd party AI tools - without exporting data. SPM metrics commonly evaluate performance based on individual metrics (like quota) and team metrics (like sales targets) and can be drilled down by segment or industry vertical (e.g. healthcare prospects).
SPM software motivates teams by sharing details about and tracking of performance-based incentives (commissions and bonuses), providing more fair and balanced territories and quotas, as well as surfacing step-by-step guidance and sales plays with the CRM to get both new and experienced reps selling faster.
