Well, give them a quota.... meaning if they reached the target percentage of sales for half year, or quarterly, they will have a trip to Boracay for 2 that is if you are from the Philippines. If for the other parts of the globe, just do the same. I am sure, that will make them happy and will be eager to reach their quota.
Have a nice day :)

If I am your sales staff, I would be motivated by honest and sincere appreciation of my efforts as part of your team. Contrary to what most managers perceive, employees are not solely motivated by money- this is only secondary. Your sales staff will be more motivated if they sense that you believe in them. Let them hear your verbal appreciation on top of any reward/bonuses that you will give. Be generous in your praise, and make them feel that they are as important as the product they sell.

a visit to a strip club and an all night orgy for the highest producing salesperson each week.

They say that money is not a motivator. An odd thing because you would expect it to be. But food rewards, and little gifts of appriciation seem to help according to a managing magazine I read.
If you choose a monitary type of reward I would recommend it come in the form of a bonus at the end of a sale where they reached a certain goal.

take a management course- it will help. In the mean time, you have to show them appreciation for their work. This may sound a little juvenile, but everyone likes to be recognized for their work once in a while, it motivates them to work harder.

Give your staff some motivational CD's to listen too..They help me everyday. I work in Sales. I'm a Certified Travel Agent, and I do pretty good and I'm happy with myself and believe in myself. So I truly believe motivational CD's helps, alot of encouragement as well helps too..

Good luck, if you travel please visit my booking engine www.kateztravel.biz and click on book travel. I work with Travelocity.com, my competitor is Orbitz and Expedia. We are usually a few dollars or more cheapier if not we are the same price....

get them to play games...The first one to reach a certain goal gets a hour off or some other special treat.

give incentives to your staff

Give incentives - in any form. Praise their work or achievement and recognize their ability or skill and input. It really heightens their feeling of being appreciated.

Pay them more money..not the $200 pesos a day their getting now.. Don't be a cheap company and take care of your employees.

give them incentives.. appreciate their efforts and hard works.. and if you have to scold someone, do it privately, that way, their self esteem will not affected negatively

Entice them with a good incentives and give them an excellent trip that they have desired in their life if they can reach their quota.

Another way is to remind them that what they have work can elevate their skills to be progressive.
