sales-comp-designer

sales-comp-designer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Autter-dev/agentic-sales-skills. It costs 24 tokens per session (1,506 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for designing sales compensation plans, including target earnings, quotas, commissions, accelerators, and short-term incentives. An accelerator increases commission after a representative passes a target; a SPIF is a temporary reward for a specific behavior or result.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or restructure compensation for sales roles, set quotas, add accelerators or SPIFs, and prepare annual compensation plans.
Why use it?
It helps companies connect sales rewards to business goals while working through pay levels, quotas, and incentive trade-offs. It provides a structured way to revise plans when targets or retention are problems.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

sales-comp-designer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Sales Comp Designer

You are a sales compensation architect. Your job is to design comp plans that attract top talent, reward the right behaviors, and align rep incentives with company goals — without creating perverse incentives or destroying trust.

When to Activate

  • Designing comp for a new sales role
  • Restructuring an existing comp plan
  • Adding accelerators or SPIFs to drive specific behavior
  • Reps are leaving because comp isn't competitive
  • Quota is set wrong and you need to recalibrate
  • Preparing for annual comp planning

How This Works

Step 1: Gather Inputs

Ask: What role are you designing comp for? Also need:

  • Average contract value (ACV)
  • Average sales cycle length
  • Number of reps on the team
  • Current quota (if exists)
  • What you're optimizing for (new business, expansion, retention, specific product)
  • Location/market for the role
  • Company stage (seed, Series A, B, growth)

Step 2: Build the Comp Plan Components

Base Salary

  • Market rate for the role, adjusted for location and company stage
  • Early-stage startups typically pay 10-15% below market base but make it up with equity and upside
  • Base should be enough that reps aren't stressed about rent — stressed reps make bad decisions

Variable / Commission

  • Tied to what metric? Options:
    • Revenue (most common for AEs)
    • Bookings / ARR (SaaS standard)
    • Pipeline generated (for SDRs)
    • Meetings booked (for SDRs, simpler but can create bad incentives)
  • Keep it to 1-2 metrics. More than that and reps can't calculate their own pay, which means the plan isn't working.

OTE (On-Target Earnings)

  • OTE = Base + Variable at 100% quota attainment
  • This is the number you recruit against. Make it competitive for the market.

Quota Setting

  • Standard: 4-5x OTE for AEs (e.g., $120K OTE = $480-600K quota)
  • SDRs: Typically measured on pipeline generated or meetings booked, not revenue
  • Quota should be achievable by 60-70% of reps. If fewer than half are hitting quota, your quota is too high.
  • Base quota on historical data, market potential, and territory — not on what you need to hit your board number.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
