I won't get my new quota until February at the earliest.
Never seen an org give new numbers until mid January.

Usually, it takes 3 months to get it, and usually goes up by 10%

Yeah, I was bracing for the worst, but instead got a bump and a laughably nominal increase. Christmas came early. I'll take it. I've been on the other side far too many times.

Is it attainable now?

:) was hoping someone figured this out! Bunny you are years ahead of the game! No, not attainable by any reasonable expectation however I’m working a distributor that could make up the revenue needed. We will see how the year goes and the drop helps so actually looking forward to it.

I sure hope that works out.
And yeah, it's not the $, it's the ability to hit that amount.

God damn bro. What is your actual quota now then? What % do you take down on closed/ won?

medhardwaredr

I’m down to the 60 milish range. I should preface this by stating I’m a director of sales for an entire continent. Medical capital equipment with some software sprinkled in there.

That makes a lot more sense. So then how does comp on that $60M work?

medhardwaredr

High salary, commission based on monthly rev and one or two other financial metrics. Essentially the ability to pull in large checks from huge deals is off the plate in exchange for a steady healthy check.
Real bonus is developing talent and watching people grow both personally and professionally

Honestly doesn’t sound bad once you look at the total package. Plus, you sound like a pretty solid director for your reps.
