Denver, CO (PRWEB via PRWebDirect) February 14, 2007 -- Robert Youngjohns, president and CEO at Callidus Software (NASDAQ: CALD - News), the leader in Sales Performance Management (SPM) and Enterprise Incentive Management (EIM), in an exclusive interview with Ron Powell and the Business Intelligence Network (www.BeyeNETWORK.com), explains how Callidus Software provides executives with software and analytics tools to ensure the right alignment between sales incentive compensation and the business they are trying to drive, as well as the flexibility to deploy new sales strategies on demand.

"Compensation drives the behavior that supports organizational strategy. It's the second biggest line item on the P&L of a typical enterprise and accounts for billions of dollars a year. Still, very few companies can tell you whether their incentive compensation structure actually works," said Robert Youngjohns, president and CEO of Callidus Software. "Callidus Software's goal is to provide today's leading companies with the solutions they need to get clear visibility and actionable insight on their compensation spend. Through our industry-leading sales performance and incentive management solutions, companies gain transparency and control over their compensation to improve sales performance, align sales with the company's overall business objectives and drive revenue."
"Callidus Software helps companies take action to improve their sales performance strategies," says Ron Powell, Cofounder and Editorial Director of the Business Intelligence Network. "The benefits of effective management of sales performance and incentive compensation span the entire organization. Using the analytical solutions that Callidus provides, organizations are able to align sales and incentive strategies with corporate objectives. As a result, they are able to increase sales revenue, make better use of their incentive budget, and drive productivity improvements with more motivated partners, distributors and employees."
