webster's definition OF quota 10:
The part or share assigned TO
each. Quota is applied to our bust
ness in this way Al the beginning
Of each year, We estimate the
amount OF business We should be
able 10 secure and handle with rea-
sonable dispatch and profit TO the
company.
Past performance. business condi'
tons. business population. size OF
our organization, and factory capac-
ity are all governing factors. This
amount OF business is considered
our factory quota for the year Quota
is expressed in points as we'll as in
dollars and cents.
For example, let us suppose our
quota for this year 10 be sl0,oo0,000
or 600 600 points Twenty-Five dol
lars worth OF business represents n
point. about l2 points represents an
average sale. Our first move would
he 70 split these 100000 points into
~ sections. because there are iel
Borroughs agencies in the United
States and Canada. Quota sections
vary in size according 10 the sizes
OF the agencies-as based upon
territory values.
Our next move would be 10 dis
tribute ne agency quotas by months
Agency quotas are not divided into
IL equal parts, for experience has
proven. in our case. that with cor
responding effort more business can
be secured in December than in
January. Our June business has.
also. always exceeded our July
business. Other variations in month
IL quotas are likewise necessary.
The proportion OF our years quota
assigned 10 each month is as FOL
lows. January. per cent: Feoru'
arv : per cent. March. per cent
APRIL. 3 Der cent; May. 8 per cent;
June. 10 FER cent: July, per cent,
August. : per cent; September, s per
cent. October, 8 per cent; Novem-
Der. 9 per cent December. IL per
cent.
Our only stipulation in assigning
salesmen's quotas Is that 40 points
shall constitute a minimum years
quota for a salesman. We made the
minimum quota 100 points, or
$4,000 worth OF sales. because tna'
is the minimum account OF business
We expect a fair salesman to pro-
duce In a year. A smaller business
does not WELD a profit sufficient TO
attract the class OF statesmen we
wish 10 employ.
