"It is extremely important to the success of the sales team to approve and deliver sales plans on time," said Laura Provenza. "Using Plan Communicator on the Force.com platform, we were able to deploy the solution quickly and easily. Plan Communicator streamlines our plan approval and distribution processes so plan rollout and sales execution are in sync and aligned with corporate objectives."

The second breakout session, Manage Commissions and Claims with Callidus Commissions Manager on Force.com, will be presented by Leslie Stretch, president and CEO at Callidus Software. The presentation will be Thursday, November 19 from 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. in Moscone North room 124. Attendees will learn how Commissions Manager helps companies simplify sales incentives by opening up a dialogue with the sales force. Deploying this solution on the Force.com platform, sales professionals can forecast their earnings in line with their deals, and track their earnings paid and pending, all as part of their day-to-day opportunity management.

"Commissions Manager allows sales reps to easily access up-to-date information on their performance. With this new solution, the sales force can manage their commissions as part of their daily routine. This increases transparency and confidence in the system, reduces shadow accounting and saves precious selling time," concluded Leslie Stretch.
