Custom Survey

Base Pay Plan Design
Once an organization determines how it would like to target its compensation in comparison to market and what it would like to recognize through its base pay program, 3C designs a base pay program that aligns target pay and pay opportunity with the external market and key performance measures outlined in the organization's business strategy.
Variable Pay Plan Design
3C assists in the design and implementation of variable pay plans that incorporate relevant performance measures and balance competitiveness with affordability.
Sales Compensation

It then designs an effective sales compensation program that is aligned with the organization's pay position against market and focused on profitable sales and a fair return to the organization and the sales staff.
