War Room Spiff. Right here, right now. **EDIT: SUBMISSIONS NOW CLOSED**

It’s long overdue that we host spiffs here in the War Room. 


Here’s how they'll work: every so often, I’ll post a topic. Give us our favorite answer, and we’ll crown you the Bravado Choice winner and send you a commish prize. Give the community their favorite answer (i.e. get the most upvotes), and they’ll follow you to Middle Earth…and we’ll also crown you the People’s Choice winner & send you commish.


Sound good?


First up…you know how I feel about poetry, so: write a haiku about sales. 


We’ll crown winners tomorrow afternoon.


Fine print: Partaking in this War Room Spiff comes with the risk of realizing your own poetic genius. Bravado and its affiliates are not responsible for individuals who leave sales for a career in literature or become a Poet Laureate.

Still waiting for my comp plan

and a bonus poem (though not Haiku) for you:


Territories are shrinking
Engagement has gone down too
Really tired of spammers
Ready for the bots to go too
Lesson learned I guess
Inviting anyone brings problems
The 9 Badgers are put to the test

How are all of these non salespeople getting in?

U MUST get out of the WR and into my shower to watch me right now.
And to top it all off, we get Wordle for sales and no DMs.
