To help you quickly get started with QuotaPath, we offer a template library of some common and effective comp plans. The Activity-based plan can be found under Sales Development Representative Plans.

An Activity-based plan is commonly used by Sales Development Reps (SDR), Business Development Reps (BDR), Market Development Reps, and Account Development Reps.

Plan insights

SDRs have a quota on a monthly or quarterly basis. 'Activities' can mean anything from number of dials made in a month to number of meetings set or held.

A few examples

Below are a few examples of how this plan could be applied in a variety of industries and goods sold.

A Sales Development Rep has a monthly quota of 15 sales qualified opportunities per month and earns $200 per qualified opportunity.

A Market Development Rep has a quarterly quota of 80 meetings held and earns $40 per meeting for the first 40 meetings and $140 for any additional meetings.

A Business Development Rep earns $10 for every new high-quality contact they add to the company’s CRM.
