Step 1 - Competition Type

In the competition creation wizard, search for Target. You will get 3 options: Custom targets, Multiple targets, Multiple targets together and Targets. We will go through the Targets competition in this article. The competition will include the saved targets that already is in the Target-section in our system.

Step 2 - Layout

In the second step, you'll be asked to pick a layout for the competition. A layout is the theme of the competition as it's displayed on the TV-monitors. When you have a layout you want to proceed with, press Select:


Step 3 - Participants

In the third step of the wizard, you'll choose the type of participants. You can decide if Teams should compete against one another, or Companies should, if the SalesScreen subscription consists of a multiple-company structure.

You can also even create Custom Teams that will only exist in the context of the competition. This is easier understood through an example; if John is on Team-A and Beatrice is on Team-B, you can set up a competition where John and Beatrice are placed on the same team (e.g., Team-Awesome). Team-Awesome will exist as long as the competition is running, where team members are working towards a commong goal set by the bounds of the competition.

If available, you can enable the Executive switch, which lets you pit users, across all companies in your multi-company structure, against each other. This feature also enables you to pit teams across all the companies against each other - or the companies themselves, against one another. Custom teams are also supported, where you can create teams for the competition - with members from across all the companies.

In the third step of the wizard, you'll choose the type of participants. You can decide if Users should compete against one another, or if Teams should - or even Companies, if the SalesScreen subscription consists of a multiple-company structure.

Participant Type is User

Select participants from users across all teams. This enables you to set up a competition between all users in the company, or between a specific subset of users.


Participant Type is Team

Select participating teams from the company. You can choose all teams or a subset of teams.

Participant Type is Company

Select participating companies from the list of companies on the left:



Participant Type is Custom Teams

Create a custom team by clicking on Create Team. Add a name to your custom team and start adding users by clicking on the users on the left side. Repeat the process until you have all the custom teams you need.

Step 4 - Settings

In the fourth step of the wizard, you'll define key settings of the competition - i.e. name, due date, report type etc.:


The following are short descriptions of the different settings.

Title

Set the title of the competition. In the example above, the title is set to "Budget race!".
The Title field helps to identify the competition slide that can be placed in playlists, which are displayed on TV-screens.

Description (Optional)

This field is handy when wanting to provide the competition with a short description.
The Description field helps to identify the competition slide that can be placed in playlists, which are displayed on TV-screens.

Start Date / End Date

Set the start date and end date of the competition. All relevant reports made by users after the Start Date and before the End Date, will count in the competition.

Compete On

Select what report type is relevant to the competition. Reports can be of type Sales, Activities,Offers or Meetings. In the example above, the competition will compete on Sales. This means that only sale reports will count in this competition.

Products

Select what products are relevant to the competition. The set of available products depends on what you compete on. Only reports, with the products included in this field, will count in the competition.

Calculated In

Select what unit the competition should consider. If Value is chosen, the competition will be based on the Value (amount) of relevant reports. If Quantity is chosen, the competition will be based on the quantity (numbers sold) of relevant reports.

Winner is Declared When

Select the function of which SalesScreen will choose the winner(s) of the competition.
If Goal is reached is chosen, the competition will only define the participant(s), that actually reached the budget/quota before the competition's end date, as winners.
If Time is over is chosen, the competition will define the participant(s), who are leading at the moment when the competition ends, as winners.

Max Number of Participants

Select how many participants should be visible on the competition slide (at TV-screens) at the same time. The number can vary from 1 to 15. Simply use the slider to set the number.
In the example above, the number is set to 2 because we created 2 custom teams. Would have been 10 if it where 10 custom teams, 10 participants etc.

Privacy Setting

Select the privacy level of what is going to be displayed on the competition slide.
If Show value only is selected, only the participant's values (amount or quantity) is displayed.
If Show progression only is selected, only the participant's budget progression percentage is displayed.
If Show everything is selected, both the value and the budget progression is displayed.

Step 5 - Prizes 

In the fifth step of the wizard, you can define prize(s) that will be awarded the winner(s) of the competition. You can choose to have no prize at all or even multiple prizes, if you have the reward shop enabled you can also hand out coins for the different prizes:


As seen at the top of the wizard, the How many prizes? field decide how many participants can get prizes of the competition.

For instance, if you choose to have two prizes for the competition, the first place winner can get one prize and the second place winner can receive another. Or, they can both receive the same prize.

  • Name: Set the name of the prize. This field help to identify the prize later.

  • Description (Optional): Set the description of the prize. This field help to identify the prize later.

  • Image (Optional): You can upload a prize image.

  • Number of winners: You can set the number of winners you want to have in the competition 

  • Threshold: If you only want to give prizes if the participant have reached a set threshold you can add it here.

Step 6 - Finish

In the last step of the wizard you can choose none or multiple playlists to publish the competition slide to. This shortcut exists so that you don't have to assign the competition slide to your different playlists
You can also decide if the participants should get a email before and after the competition starts, but also while its active:


Finally, click on Add Competition
