sales force attrition











































The line has been forming for a long time!

BA says to hang in there. That he and the French Man have a vision in which this Division will reach new boundaries every reached before. BA feels like we have to be patient, and allow their vision to firmly unravel itself in the coming 6 months. They also said that there are so many customers who cannot wait to use SN Neg Pressure. They are taking pre orders before re entry on or about Sept 1.
 






Brad Adams is a dipshit! Who in their right mind is going to use our negative pressure line again?! The first mistake he made was getting rid of the AWM reps and replacing them with his pharma reps. The 2nd mistake was believing he could turn around this dying division.

I heard that Apria will only consider re entry with SN if they get revenue share of 60 percent Apria, 40 percent SN.
 












The relationship with Apria is forever dead. They weren't that great of a partner to begin with.

Very true. i heard Molnlycke is tying their new NPWT discharge "wagon" to Apria's hitch. Comical that they feel like Apria will drive discharge biz. Working with Apria is like babysitting 20 toddlers...there's always someone crying about something and they don't comprehend anything. Good riddance Apria- good luck Molnlycke.

BA and French, to meet with Apria and let bygones be bygones. I know the hot shots that sell Oasis, cannot wait to collaborate the pharma mentality to Neg Pressure. It will be kids working with kids. Some of the Apria reps look to young to have a drivers license.
 












I can only speak to ORTHO as I was a full line rep for a while...

Apathy-Just because you have a 1099 sales force doesn't mean you treat them like a red headed step child. Freight charges, lack of rep support and very little communication and teamwork leads us to believe we are on our own and at many times, fighting corporate.

Cheapness, for lack of a better word. Invest in your people and reap the rewards. Instruments, inventory, field equipment, etc. There is entirely to much hassle to do this job. Effort that should be spent on customers, is spent rounding up equipment for cases and getting it to the right place on time.

Opportunity-one should have options, once one has paid their dues. There are too many dead ends in this company. Too many "good ole boys" in positions that keep people down or out.
