Speaker programs

[anonymous]

Thought on the massive reduction of speakers and only virtual speaker programs for 2021? I know what I’m thinking and I can’t say it’s good.

I have asked my friends from other pharma companies & they are saying their programs are virtual as well & reduced. I don’t think it’s an issue & a way to save huge dollars

Now, now...don't be bringing common sense in here. They don't like it.

The virtual programs are a huge waste of time and money. Providers dislike them and it’s a massive PIA for reps to beg doctors to sign up for them.

Slashing a major program while you're still trying to grow this thing is not a great approach. Put lipstick on a pig all you want...this will not go well long term with providers and those on the Speaker's Bureau will be less than happy.

Keep whistling while you stroll past the graveyard though...

Right, bc it makes fiscal sense to keep hundreds of speakers on contract during a pandemic. Let's pay them to do nothing. Oh, that's right, that's what we pay you for.

We pay EVERYONE who works here to do nothing... lets be honest.

EVERYONE? Yeah ok genius. You do nothing and you won’t move share. That’s why most do not like pharma reps. You’re lazy!!!

I make over 10 calls a day, chat up 3-4 pharmacists, I challenge docs to write vascepa and use a DAW / Brand medically necessary, I spend more than half my time pulling scripts through.... so... am I lazy, NO. BUT.... we still do nothing.

You challenge the docs? Shut the fuck up. Rep
