← All servicesBad territory design kills sales teams. Unfair workload, high turnover, resentment. Smart territory planning builds equity and performance.
Unfair workload drives turnover. If one rep gets all the big accounts and another gets none, the latter quits.
Misaligned incentives create conflict. Reps fight over accounts. Gaming rules. Quota gaming instead of pipeline building.
Unbalanced growth creates chaos. Adding headcount without redesigning territories means some reps lose accounts. Resentment.
Learn to design balanced territories with a RevOps consultant.
Divide by region: North, South, East, West. Simple. Works for regional businesses.
Divide by existing accounts. Vertical or horizontal account mapping. Works for enterprise.
Divide by industry: Tech, Finance, Healthcare. Builds deep expertise.
Combine geography and account size. Account execs get big accounts. SDRs work regions.
