2. Is it possible to give immediate feedback?<\/mark><\/strong>
In video games, the results are instantaneous with an immediate feedback after each turn or action taken. Similarly, engaging your sales team in games might require for a quick response system to keep them motivated. For example, apps that plug directly into your CRM system work best to reward for actions undertaken and tasks accomplished.

Will they earn a better reward if they take a higher risk? People like to be challenged and games are a perfect way to do this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Is this the most appropriate game for my team and will they reciprocate?<\/mark><\/strong>
The most ideal game creates a story that equivalent their everyday challenges. It has to be creative and stimulating, but at the same time, be able to achieve the ultimate goals of the organisation. Note that the level of effort put in by the players equals the level of reward they can earn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Will your game bring people close to each other?<\/mark><\/strong>
Games offer a unique opportunity to build relations between people and bring them together. If your game fails to establish interactions among players, then you aren\u2019t making the most of the power that social connection can have on reinforcing new behaviour.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
