List of funny things about this company

1. First targets only then all zips now targets again.
2. We were told we are allowed to sell and not worry about chasing sigs but then we had to get 80% target sigs or a reduction in bonus. ((((the craziest shit I have ever heard)))))).
3. Samples on every call. Even if they dont need samples.
4. Heard the reps who won the $4500 travel voucher had to use their own vacation time for their trip. (((Weird)))
5. Not paying reps for maintenance of refills. We are only payed on volume growth.
So check this out. If my goal is 150 Nascobal scripts a quarter, and I get 160 scripts but the volume growns, I will not even get a dime for a bonus. It's crazy their is not some sort of volume calculater as a reward as well as a growth calculater.
6. The 10 week contests are not fair. Most of the same 3-4 people would win it everytime because of volume history.
7. No POA meetings because they don't want us out of the field.

ok lets add to this list. It will be fun.
 


















10. The "Target" lists that they probably pay a shitload of money for. Someone is laughing all the way to the bank on that one. I could do better with the Yellow Pages and a dart, blindfolded.
 












Your right about the targets. I called on a new target doctor the other day and he laughed and said he hasnt seen a patient with thrush in 4-5 years. Decile 8 by the way.
 












It always amazes me that the new target lists have 2-3 year old addresses. The doctor has either moved 2 years ago to another state, is dead or has retired. My doctors do not have to write Oravig for at least 6 mos to a year because they can give them a full course of therapy just from the samples I have been forced to leave. The people in charge do not know their asses from a hole in the ground. AMAZING!

14. Our management has somehow sold our call frequency on the above mentioned "Target List" to the Board of Directors as a solution to our shitty sales. I wonder if the Board of Directors knows that we aren't allowed to remove non-existent or dead physicians from our target list? How the f*ck are we supposed to call on them? It doesn't matter. Strativa says "JUST DO IT" - which, by the way, should be the next bumper sticker.
 


















If its a top 30 doctor you must visit every week. Expense flowers if you have too. Just get past the grounds keeper and close the doctor hard. threaten to kill him if he doesnt write.
drop little puns like
1. Hey doc, my sales are dying.
or
2. Doc, I have dying to meet you.
3. we have a long patent. Our drop dead date is in 2017.

Then say "no pun intended".
ha ha
 






WHEN YOU DO NOT TRUST YOUR SALES FORCE AND DICTATE EVERY DETAIL OF EVERY DAY TO THEM, YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW - A LACK OF TRUST AND LACK OF LOYALTY. THE RESULT IS FAILURE, FAILURE, FAILURE. THIS LESSON HAS BEEN LEARNED OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN IN BUSINESS.

Open communication and mutual accountability should be the way you develop a sales team. If our lower management get a pair and bring this to their attention They would talk then it would be had in your computer and keys to the car and have a nice day. so scary I think they know this but they looking to sell This financial drain to some other sucker.
 


















17. Hand picked loser DM's that were botton 20% from previous companies did a great job handpicking loser expansion reps that were bottom 10% from big pharma. great job there
 






I hear that RP feels the reason why there is so much turnover in the company is because people cant handle working a full day. He thinks people are looking for a 10-2 rep job. This is not true. I for one work a full hard day in the field. It's the lack of respect and distrust that has me looking. It sucks because I dont want to hop from job to job but I also know this is not the place for me. Too bad. Worst company I have ever worked for.
