How much do your managers get on your *** about selling insoles and cleaner spray?

ah dude luckily i had one of the best managers, so he would just remind me every now and then saying the company is trying to really force it so if i could just go ahead and mention it. I know in some other places they review your week total of insoles/cleaners sold and if you dont make up to par you get written up after so many warnings.
