> Enable clear communication about common updates in the sales commission or incentive plans.

**Quick explainer video:**

## Using groups

Groups help replace long, scattered email threads and bring structured communication directly to your sales teams within the platform.

Creating groups allows admins to:

* Communicate updates to IC plan structures or calculation logic to specific user segments, ensuring clarity and alignment.
* Reduce disputes by running short, targeted surveys to gather feedback on incentive plans from the right audience.
* Organize users based on any parameter in your dataset—department, designation, geography, IC structure, territory, and more.

Users can interact with posts through likes, high-fives, and comments, helping teams stay engaged and informed.

## Townhall

Every admin account comes with a system-generated default group called Townhall, which includes all end users on the platform.
You can access this group by clicking the Groups tab in the left navigation panel.
