Description
On this edition of The Predictable Revenue Podcast, co-host Collin Stewart welcomes Jeron Paul, Founder and CEO of Spiff.com. Jeron is a veteran and accomplished entrepreneur: he’s a four-time founder (with three exits), a board member, and former VC. Throughout the pod, Collin and Jeron discuss the often-repeated, but not always true, myths around building comp plans. Highlights include: why are compensation plans critical? (5:50), myth 1 – commissions don’t matter much (15:53), myth 2 – straight line commission are better than complex commissions (27:04), myths 3 and 4 – quota bonuses aren’t always effective and accelerators aren’t worth the complexity (39:29), and myth 5 – more frequent or less frequent bonuses...which is more effective? (51:39).
