They think we should D/C HH. I explain why ($$$) but they say it's the only way to wean stubborn customers (and insurance) from using it.

Dolls aside, marketing is pretty damn good. Came from another company last year and YES BI really does have their shit together. Lots of materials to utilize and I do.

You said BI has their shit together now that is the funniest shit I have heard yet! This company is such a hot mess I can’t believe I fell for their bullshit and left a good company to come here! They can not even get a report or goals out on time. Employees will be leaving, A LOT of people at the end of this quarter. Stay to get the quarterly bonus and accept a new job in the new year! BI is a joke!

Bwwwwaaaaahhhaaa Fn hahahahaha!!!
Wtf did you come from? Some lane azz cough and cold company that pays $15k a year lolololol.
I’ve worked for the big top 10 companies and this place sux donkey D when it comes to marketing lolol
This convo stops at the action figures that they spent $$ on and asked us to use to sell while Trelegy was hitting the ground and eating our lunch. But even outside of that our sakes strategies suck, our marketing pieces (when we get any) are either so busy looking that it doesn’t stand out or is a bunch of diff shades of navy blue colors or had the drug name in small letters in the bottom corner. Basic marketing tells ya to be simple and easily impactful, use bright attention getting colors and make your brand and simple message easy to find and see.
Good lord I could go on for days about this.
You gotta be Fn kidding me

Well okay skippy; I'm selling the crap out of the stuff and you in the mean time think you're some grand, genius, marketing pro. Why don't you go "on and on" to that division and get yourself a position there, since you can't sell here..???

Selling the crap out of it? Lmfaooooooo
Look chief, SP HH has more market share than you, Trelegy has 10 more share than you in just 9 months & actually every competitor has more share than you and SP Resp & ST have been out for years.
But yeah, you’re doing awesome! Lolol. Meanwhile we are endanger of losing more formulary coverage because of the lack of volume and this cheap azz company doesn’t wanna pay for coverage. But you do you. Your competitors are probably have twice weekly meetings to figure out how to stop your progress. Lmao lolololololl lmfao lololol

Good lord. I’m in the top 10% and it doesn’t change that we are losing to ICS, Anoro, SP HH & Trelegy.
It also doesn’t change the fact that this company sux azz at marketing and are cheap af with marketing/selling resources and formulary coverage.
Let’s not get started on the lame and confusing IC plan. So one doc’s prescriptions may be worth $300 and another doc’s may only be worth $150 Lololol. Oh wait...let’s not forget how 3 formulary plans are tied in to your bonus and ranking. Sheesh we have a terrible IC plan. And marketing sux.
Do y’all think we will get different dolls to sell with at the next POA? Or maybe we will get toy cars to sell with? Or maybe a little play house for the dolls to live in? Bwwwwaaahhhhhhaaaaaaa!!!! Yeah this is big boy pharma and our marketing is second to none. Get doc, here suck in this big plastic thing to see what an inhaler is really like. It’s flu season and you’re only the 12tg person to spit in it today. I wiped all of the hepatitis off with these dried out alcohol pads.

Because my base salary is high AF and I’m not gonna get that at 98% of pharma companies in today’s market. And the real handcuffs is our pension plan. Definitely can’t walk away from that. So I know our company isn’t committed to winning, it’s just squeezing that last few drops of juice out until it’s over. And it’ll be over in 2-3 years.

None of that changes that our company is cheap AF with resources and makes it difficult to be successful especially when GSK is a marketing machine, has plenty of budget money and samples to grow business with. I’m just barely able to sample my high volume accounts and even then they’re gonna have to go about 2 weeks without samples. So it’s impossible to really try to develop new business.
We have several good pieces of data that could help us grow business but this cheap azz company doesn’t wanna pay to produce the materials for reps.
Well I sure hope we don’t lose more formulary coverage again this year. How do you get docs to prescribe a me too when it’s 50% or less covered and your competitors are 98% covered.
Good luck Chief. I’m sure the whole Net Sales model with high volume and low volume markets competing against each other in one bucket is really fair. Oh yeah not to mention one Territory may have 30% coverage of respimat and another territory may have 60% coverage but they still compete in the same pool

This isn't just BI..It's all of Pharma. It is what it is. Our competition may have it "better" in your eyes but just go to their board and you'll read the same crap there (or a variation applicable to them).

No. Lmao. Just no. Other reputable companies do not put out dolls and tell their sales reps to use dolls on a call with a highly trained physician. Nobody and I mean nobody in the history of pharma has ever done that. Good lord man lolol. And to top it off they paid for everybody’s travel expenses to a POA just to give us dolls and tell us not to take them out of the box but to let the physician take them out of the box. Apparently that’s a very crucial detail in successfully selling with the dolls lmao lolol. Meanwhile a new competitor was launching a flew past Respimat prescriptions (Stiolto and SP Respimat combined) in about 6 months.

Also no other reputable company has a marketing department worse than ours. We are always about 1 year late reacting and even then our marketing sux azz.

Quit trying to spin this. I get that you’re a company man and all but everybody knows we suck at marketing and we are cheap AF. BI is a good place to come if you want a job where you’ll never win and you won’t get a lot of pressure to perform. Just get you’re calls in and get your DM to like you and you’ll always have a job.

Respiratory is almost over. It’s very clear and easy to see. They’re just getting those last few drops out before they let go of Respimat and just collect $$$ for HH & whatever still comes in for Respimat. They’d make much more money that way cause they don’t need a sales force. Trelegy is about to take over with their asthma indication.

The End

The silence of the company over the past 3 or 4 months speaks volumes to the fact that something is going to happen this quarter. Could it be the quiet before the storm? There is no solid reason to bring us all to a national sales meeting in Texas (of all places), maybe we get life sized respiratory dolls to carry around and make bigger impact...what are the marketing geniuses up to now?? Praying for layoffs and good timing!

You need to get over this; psssst it wasn't that big of a deal, seriously. AND go to GSK's board and get an eyeful..How about YOU wake up?

Psssstttttt.....the marketing dolls was a huuuuuggee deal. It’s called desperation son. It’s called “we are out of ideas and we don’t know wtf we are doing in marketing anyway” lol. Can you see a reputable company like Pfizer, Amgen, GSK, AZ, etc actually sending their sales people out with action figure dolls to sell to their physicians? Of course not.
Look company man, respiratory is OVER. There’s nothing in the pipeline, we have nothing to combat a competitor that out grew all of our respiratory products combined in just 6 months and our marketing is some of the worst in the business. Not to mention we just keep losing formulary coverage and will lose more next year.
But yeah, you keep thinking everything is great and we are one of the best companies ever lmao.
