  • Patent number: 6636852
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for computing the compensation for sales agents within a corporate sales force of a deploying company includes steps of creating one or more sales agent compensation plans tailored to provide an incentive for the sales agents to sell goods and/or services according to a corporate sales strategy. The compensation plan(s) are then stored within a database. Sales agents are then provided with remote access to the database via a computer network, such as the Internet. The sales agents may then input past sales into the database and may input, qualify, modify and/or store future sales opportunities into the database. The past sales and future sales opportunities may then be applied to one or more of the stored compensation plan(s) to calculate the sales agents' compensation. Quota achievement levels may be included in the calculated compensation and graphically or textually displayed for the sales agents.
