Compare 3 skills
These three all land on the VP Sales desk but solve different problems. Weighted forecast turns your pipeline into a defensible number — best, likely, and worst scenarios with commit-versus-upside splits, risk flags, and a gap analysis for the board. Building Sales Team decides when and whom to hire, applying repeatability checks and the hire-in-pairs rule to structure your first reps. Sales Compensation designs the plan that pays them — OTE split, ramp, and retention kickers that tie commission to renewals, not just bookings.

Which one should you pick?
Curated guidance from the ElasticFlow catalogue team.
Pick if…
the board wants the number and your spreadsheet forecast isn't trustworthy — this weights your pipeline into best, likely, and worst scenarios, separates commit from upside, flags stalled deals, and shows the gap to quota.
Pick if…
you're tempted to post your first AE role — this checks whether your win rate is actually repeatable, matches the rep profile to your motion, and structures the first two hires so one success isn't just luck.
Pick if…
your reps keep closing deals that churn — this designs a comp plan that pays part of commission at renewal, adds clawbacks for early churn, and sets a ramp so new hires stay cash-safe while they learn.
