# Choose sales spiff ideas from a metric you already log

Sales spiff ideas are a short prize on a metric you already log. These sales spiff examples name the prize and the metric, and they are not a percent Knockdesk pays. A sales spiff program is that prize, that metric, and a window you can say before the shift. Knockdesk is field sales software for the deal those prizes sit on.

## A program is a prize you can point at

A sales spiff program falls apart when the prize is a percent nobody wrote down, or when the metric is not something the rep already logs.

**The metric.** Knocks, Conversations, Appointments, or Confirmed sales. If the desk does not count it, it is not a sales spiff program.

**The prize.** You name a short prize. These sales spiff examples do not set the amount. Knockdesk does not pay a spiff percent.

**The window.** Say Today, This Week, This Month, or the length of a live game before anyone starts. A surprise prize is not a program.

## The prize hangs on a deal you can open

The deal card is the close those prizes can use: a deal already on the board, from an outcome the rep picked. A spiff on Confirmed sales still has to be a prize you set. The product does not pay a spiff percent.
