In honor of this week's BIG news - Microsoft acquires FantasySalesTeam, an innovative sales gamification platform, to help organizations increase productivity - I am pulling an interview from the vault with the CEO of FST, Adam Hollander.
When you talk sales incentives - Leader boards? Top scorers? Challenges? these elements have been part of incentive promotions all along.
But… most sales contests fail due to poor design and a lack of understanding how to motivate the entire team vs. the traditional top performers.
Successful use of gamification is much more than just fancy leaderboards. This week learn how to successfully drive sales improvements by implementing gamification the right way.
