If you are considering using another company’s compensation plan, exactly the same or with a few changes, I would ask you these questions:

Is your

• total budget for field compensation
• understanding of different types of compensation plans

all the same as those of the other company?

Are your

• products and services
• margins
• compensation ethics
• compensation priorities
• experiences with other compensation plans
• preferences for the types of bonuses and commissions
• business ethics
• plans for the future of your business

all the same as those of the other company?

The likelihood of 10 yes’s is almost zero, so my answer is simply…. never.
