Designs quotas, territories and commission plans that produce the behavior the business needs — sizing territories against real potential, setting quotas people can hit often enough to believe in, choosing what to pay on, handling accelerators, draws, clawbacks and disputes, and changing a plan without destroying trust. Use this to build or fix a comp plan, allocate territories, work out why reps are chasing the wrong deals, or plan a mid-year change.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Sales compensation and territory

A compensation plan is the clearest statement a company makes about what it actually wants. Reps
will optimize it precisely, including in the ways you did not intend, and that is not a character
flaw — it is the plan working.

## Size territories on potential, not on the current book

A territory built from existing accounts rewards whoever inherited the good one and guarantees the
argument that follows. Build from addressable potential — accounts that fit, weighted by how many
of them could plausibly buy — then check that each territory can support the quota you intend to
put on it.

**A quota a territory mathematically cannot carry is not a stretch goal, it is a resignation on a
delay.** Do that arithmetic before assigning, and expect to find one or two territories that fail
it.

Rebalance on a known cadence, so it is a process rather than a punishment, and account for
in-flight pipeline when accounts move.

## Set quotas people hit often enough to believe

If most of the team misses, the plan has stopped motivating and started demoralizing; the number is

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cbrock84/headcount/sales-compensation-and-territory@sha256:1bc1fb1f8614a70b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260916.e72e404, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
