Prompt Guidance
Clear prompts unlock smarter commission plans.
Vague prompts yield generic suggestions. Include details like sales model (e.g., "B2B software subscriptions" or "retail product sales"), incentive goals (e.g., "boost new client acquisition" or "increase upsell rates"), or team structure (e.g., "inside sales reps" or "field agents").
Example: "Propose commission tiers for a SaaS sales team targeting small businesses with annual contracts."
AI excels at revealing nuances between options. Use prompts like "compare X vs Y" to evaluate incentive plans, benchmark competitor schemes, or weigh reward structures.
Example: "Compare flat-rate commissions versus tiered bonuses for sales reps closing deals over $50k."
Treat your prompt as a clear task for AI. Instead of "Generate incentive ideas," specify the goal:
Example: "Design a commission structure that motivates cross-selling while maintaining profitability for a direct sales team."
Need a step-by-step plan, a table of commission rates, or a checklist of incentive components? Ask explicitly. AI delivers better when output format is clear.
Example: "Provide a bullet list of five commission models suitable for a hybrid sales team, including pros and cons."
ClickUp Brain goes beyond basic task tracking—it’s your strategic partner in crafting effective sales incentives and commission plans that drive results.
