Setting Realistic Sales Targets That Motivate, Not Discourage

The wrong target hurts

Random or inflated targets lose credibility and get ignored. Low targets leave latent performance untapped. A good target balances ambition and realism.

The basis of a sound target

  • Build it on historical performance and market potential.
  • Split it fairly across territories and reps.
  • Make it measurable and track it weekly.
  • Tie it to clear incentives on achievement.

Follow-up makes the difference

A target without follow-up is a wish. When the rep sees progress toward their target live, they adjust effort in time. Data-based targets lift performance without discouragement.
