Generally, the approach to reward adopted by employers
takes one of three forms:
• Focus on service -is characterised by open-ended
agreements about continuity of employment, incremental
pay scales ad annual reviews.
• Focus on skills – produces higher rates of pay with
greater skills.
• Focus on performance –emphasises target setting,
adapting to change and a close relationship between
what the employee achieves and what the employee is
paid.

considers important in the sales area.
- Bonuses are particularly useful for tying rewards
to accomplishment of objectives.
Disadvantages

calculating bonus achievement if the objective is
expressed in subjective terms.
- If salespeople do not fully support the
established objective, they may not exert
additional effort to accomplish the goal.
