How to use Odoo Gamification to Reward your Sales Team beyond Incentives?

We have this common practice of motivating Sales reps mainly through monetary rewards, i.e., incentives and bonuses. But financial rewards create a vicious cycle of keeping up the bet to reward your sales team against their expectations of greater and greater amounts.

At some point, you will hit saturation on financial resources available for sales team motivation. Now, here’s the thing- even after motivating your top sales performers with rewards, they decide to leave for better tips with your competitors.

Salespeople are naturally competitive; you can’t always motivate them with money. Recognizing your sales reps for a job well done is more valued and appreciated than monetary rewards.

How to motivate your sales team in addition to Incentives?

Incentives are meant to show appreciation, inspire motivation, and let sales teams know their hard work is seen and valued. But often, your sales team sees monetary incentives as a utility, so how does that justify the sentiment you’re trying to express to them?

You can preserve the integrity and sentiment of your incentives if you can create a balance by gamifying your Sales goals and presenting badges, caring about their well-being, or creating leaderboards as rewards.

The Odoo Gamification module does exactly the same for you- it allows you to enhance the competitive spirit among Sales reps by letting you set goals/targets and defining badges of achievement.

So, here’s how the Odoo Gamification app works:

  • Under a single Challenge, you can set multiple goals. For the “Top Performer of the Month” Challenge, you can set goals for the volume of leads, the total amount of invoices and the average time to close a deal.
  • Upon achieving all these Goals, a Salesperson is considered to have completed the Challenge for which he/she will be rewarded with the “Top Performer” Badge and any other Incentive attached to that Challenge.
