January  2011
Welcome  to  the  Janaury  2011  edition  of  the  SWK
Insider
Call-­a-­Thon
By  Jeffrey  D.  Roth,  CEO
We  recently  had  the  entire  SWK  staff  come  to
our  headquarters  in  Livingston,  NJ,  for  our
annual  post-­holiday  outing  and  annual  staff
meeting.  This  year's  meeting  had  a  different
presentation  format  in  that  we  had  the
various  managers  from  each  department  do
their  own  presentations,  without  a  template  or
a  guideline.  It  proved  to  be  informative  and
interesting,  keeping  the  attention  of  our  entire
staff  for  the  2-­hour  meeting!
What  was  different  this  year  is  that  we
followed  the  annual  meeting  with  a  call-­a-­
thon,  where  each  member  of  our  TEAM
participated  in  an  entire  company-­wide,  3-­hour  event.  These  were
"feel-­good"  calls,  meant  only  to  touch  base  with  clients  we  serve  and
to  make  sure  that  we  were  doing  a  good  job.  It  also  provided  the
clients  an  opportunity  to  vent,  compliment,  complain  and  suggest.

Plan  
By  Annette  S.  Baron,  PA,  MBA;;  Michele  Brown,  CEC,  CPBA,  CPVA;;
and  Kathleen  Weiss,  SPHR
Today's  challenging  economic  climate  gives  many  organizations
reason  to  re-­examine  their  sales  compensation  strategy.  The  shelf  life
of  even  the  most  well-­designed  sales  incentive  plan  is  two  years,  at

make  it  today's  marketplace.
