Big surprise for sales force in 2011

Man up or woman up. It is a sales position. If you don't like the job start looking for a new one. I am retired and BI has developed a fine group of whiners.

Shut the hell up you are retired this is not the same company you worked for. This company has completely changed from ten years ago, you had it easy.
 




That should be done. Why pay someone for NOT hitting their goals? Or not even coming close to their goals.

BINGO..! But you need to have empathy that its so tough for them to sell when they have to pick of little Tiffany and Crystal at child care at 3:00.

Why reward failure to achieve goals? Could you imagine the angst if these Barbies had to work on straight commission?

You totally miss the point there are plenty of good hardworking reps that get the absolute most out of their territories and you and anyone else would do no better. These are the reps that will not and should not take these types of pay cuts. Don't be so naive, these steps serve the sole purpose of saving money.

These are not pay cuts. The payouts will be the same, or even increased. But, in order to get paid out, you need to hit the threshold of at least 95%.

Heck, if you ran the IC dept, you would make everyone just salary and have no pay for performance. As a matter of fact, how about we just pay reps based on R&F #'s.

I went to 5 President's Clubs and to how many have you gone? I guess the difference is I was raised without a sense of entitlement. I started working at 9 years of age for $$ and for little baby jobs around the house.

Hey reach and frequency is not dead but dying, oh wait we changed our minds near the end of the POA if you haven't met reach and frequency we are taking commission money from you.

Not very eloquent but a good point our consultants tell us that the future lies with the new ISRs, and the CSCs. we had to pay top dollar for these people and we cannot pay everybody.

Fuck the consultants. The Cardio Team is the Core of the company's sales with Pradaxa. Nationally 1 of 4 Cards has written one Pradaxa Rx. Depth is that those that have written have written at least 2 minimum. Some Cards have written upwards of 50-60Rx's in a two month time-span.

To date BI has less than half of all hospital's nationally with Pradaxa on formulary and until the ISR's have Pradaxa on a discharge protocol as well they are worthless to everybody.

The last time the ISRs ever closed a doctor was the Pradaxa Launch certification with a role-play "doctor" in Anaheim. Lol. Go sip your latte and surf the web fatboy pretenders. Isr's are always on borrowed time. See Pfizer. Merck. We Lie Lily And BMS....oh wait that's why you're here motherfucker. Tick tock tick. Hope you're not over 45.

You nailed it. These people had the finest UPS job in the history of humanity. Hopefully BI can fuck him on his healthcare soon enough so he can wipe that smug dufus grin off his face and realize he is entitled himself. AZ gave all their retirees the shaft just last year and this is becoming the trend industry wide. Companies do not care about anyone. Everyone is a means to an end. That's life.

Oh no cardio is helpful, come on even a Ferrari still needs tires.

Oh yes according to this plan if you make 105% of goal you can make more money. Look at dashboard from Q3 and not one single sleeve one team in the country made 105%. do you actually believe your own bullshit! This is no doubt a cost saving plan.
 








Look at last dashboard report and see just how many teams would have zero commissions

Hey one of the consultants here to try and regain the narrative here. First, yes it is true that if you look at 2010 that maybe half would get little or no IC payouts, second it is true that if you look at 2010 that very few would have made it to the 105% pay range. That being said the studies show that this plan will create desperation and desperation creates activity, and activity, creates results. This plan will make everyone work harder and the results should create more folks that will reach higher payouts. This post claims that payouts overall will go down, who knows the fact of the matter is we have had to significantly increase our personal costs and are going to spend an incredible amount oh money to launch a lot of new meds. If you go out there and work harder and smarter everybody will be fine. If not we FDE waiting.

oh go fuck yourself.

Desperation creates apathy. The pay outs have sucked anyway the past few years so I'm not going to break a sweat.
