We are trading company selling automotive spareparts to Toyota Motor Corporation, Yamaha , Suzuki International and lots of japanese manufacturers.
My sales team are only good hunting in the zoo( maintaining the old customers ) and we increase sales aside from repeat business and do up-selling or cross selling with new products to our 1000 customers in our database.
My questions are:
1. How to measure them by sales process:
1.1.Prospecting
1.2.Qualifying
1.3.Presenting
1.4.Closing
2. Is it really objective to compare the achievement by customer category last year 2008 to what they achieve this 2009? and see the gap or graph trend in the same account/customer each one is holding or managing
3.How to solve the mentality of comfort zone. In our company , one can work hard and could just wait for the windfall purchase orders to come in. because PO could come from web sales, inbond calls and from the customers they have been prospecting which could be 1 - 2 years ago, and the value of PO received could happen in 2009.
4. Do we have to measure and put scoreboard on their sales process / sub sales activities/ sub products ? or do we need ONLY measure their final product which is value of PO received?
5. what incentive program suit best for company depending on old customers? Is it by sales point system , say, 1 email sent =1 point, 1 presentation done= 10 points and closed sales = 20 points.
6.What form incetive or bonus points shoul we reward them ? Do we reward money or $ 500 shopping vouchers?
7. How to give point for staff loyalty working with us more than 3 years and manager taking leadership role?
Your input and advises are appreciated.
