OFFICES CLOSING TO DM'S

My territory has gone crazy closing offices to DM's! Just last week we had 2 more, say "no more" DM's can come back! Over half my territory will no longer allow DM's back. I can tell my DM gets pissed, but it's not my fault. Hell, WE are lucky to get back, let alone drag a second person into the hallway! The role of the DM is becoming a total waste.

Sounds exactly like my territory, only mine may be worse! My last field day, my DM was allowed back in only 2 offices! The role of DM should be changed from a hand-holding/stand-and-glare, to giving them key offices and MD's to call on themselves. I don't know of another medical field where a manager has to "observe" their reps once or twice a month.

Maybe the managers will clue into why they are no longer allowed back.
 


















Had a FP close his office to reps and DM's on Monday, and anyone connected to the industry. No reason other than he doesn't have time anymore to see reps, BUT, he will take samples. Also, no lunches.
 






I made the mistake of taking my DM to an office that I thought saw DMs. The receptionist said we could go back. When we went back, the wife came out and chewed out the DM, saying they are too busy to see DM's. They sent him out but asked me to stay. He said in all of his years, he had never been treated so badly. I felt badly for him but I had even asked if it was ok at the front for him to go back. There are very few offices that will allow DMs in my territory.

In the world of the 1 yr contract what does the DM do? Not like a year review for a raise or something. Dog and pony show is so true. I am surprised all offices have not closed to DM's. Todays doctors are just to busy to tell the receptionist that they need to also become screeners for letting reps back with their DM or not. Paperwork for the DM and expenses have been replaced by electronic submission of this info and the need for them, much like the reps will see their end coming soon. Obamacare will seal the fate of the salesperson in this industry. It will all become auto ship of samples if the gov. will still allow that. Most contract reps have years of experince anyways. The DM role has changed from mentor to babysitter. Does it really make sence to start job that says it will end at a certain date? If you do good or not, at the end you will have to look for another job. What was once a career has now become just a job. I have seen more people get promoted and given awards that could not sell a thing but just knew who ass to kiss in the worthless chain of command. It has become one big sorority or fraternity that those that are in watch out for one another until the cuts come, and believe me they will. It is a throw your buddy under the bus, backstabbing afair that would make anyone sick. Think about cuts for a second. Hire a third party that comes in and picks numbers. If the manangers had any worth they would be tied to the sales results and pick the best people. Now comes the transition to the on call rep or the per diem rep. It's a sad state of afairs for the healthcare system in this country. Obamacare will only make things bad for the reps, doctors and healthcare overall. This is just my opnion, you might see things differently.
 






What does Obama have to do with this? Keep the politics out of it. Actually big Pharma supported obamacare. More patients = more drugs. Stop listening to your savior El Rushbo all day!
 






As you extract your head from the sand long enough to type this responce. Obamacare spells the end for the drug industry. Not a week will go by without another company laying more people off. Only hiring now is in contract and if you think thats a solid way to make a living think again. Too many layers of management in contract that do nothing. If it weren't for the free samples and lunches, doctors wouldn't even see reps anymore. Next shoe to fall is Sunshine act. If you think gov and Pharma don't go together, where do you think the info from the now manidatory sign in sheet is heading. Gov. will run the quality of care right into the ground. So mr./ms. DM what do you really do all day other than buy breakfast and maybe lunch for the rep? Then it's the day long routinue of arm chair quarterbacking followed by a field write up that makes them feel validated. Not that I dislike Dm's, many have come thru the rank of rep then promotion. Only to find the line of asskissing doesn't stop there. Just like the rest of the world of pharma is broken the DM have lost their worth and should be gone. Especially those that think they can make a better rep in todays enviorment of 30 second park and puke. If the sand has not gotten old already then have another glass of kool aide.

Although I agree with most of what you stated, the ACA/Obamacare being a negative for the industry couldn't be further from the truth. It's estimated that it will INCREASE drug company profits by 10-35 billion over the next decade. That's PROFITS, not sales, fyi. When you have tens of millions of more patients with access to drug coverage: the opposite of the trend the past two decades, that's not a bad thing.
Like a previous poster said, please quit watching Fox News and listening to Rush, Hannity, Beck and those other clowns if you want to be informed.
The Healthcare system as it was before the ACA was not sustainable.
