Velsuckity













marketing leadership is diversity hires, sales leadership is diversity hires.

girl power!!! billion dollar brand is making five dollars this year!!!!!

these idiots cant get access but bald people drug gets tons of coverage. HOW? maybe if we replace our payer people with the litfulo ones we will get some access.
 












For those who are maligning women and people of color on this thread - let us not forget that Velsipity was brought into the Pfizer fold by a white man who is no longer with Pfizer for obvious reasons. The $6.7 billion acquisition of Arena Pharmaceuticals has been proven to be a costly mistake which was spearheaded by a mediocre white man. Cannot blame the people who are left trying to turn his error into something salvageable. Can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.

Ask KOLs and reps, the product gets heads to turn. There is just no value prop. Marketing doesn’t know what the product should be sold as, no idea how to start a patient, no access.

Marketing said the For Me program would work. It didn’t. It went down in flames. It is the reason no one trusts Tricia. The hub failed. Own it. Admit it. Stop saying that doctors think it is straight forward to prescribe. Ask your own team if they know the process. They do not.

marketing is missing badly because they don’t take the ideas of an idiot who says “value prop”
 






Everyone on the Rhum GI marketing team knows it is over and is applying. Xeljanz patent done and velsipity going nowhere.

Going to be a massacre when the budget gets set for next year.

This reminds me of the "classic" Caduet launch of ~20 years ago. Marketing (Nine Box Grid) and VP of Sales were CLUELESS, and the drug bombed.
 






























It's a Billion dollar drug and you lazy reps cant do shit, yes, the marketing team hates you. You are ruining all of our hard work being the same dumb reps who couldnt sell Xeljanz. Shut up and sell.
 












A mediocre white man who is no longer with Pfizer.
Maybe he's not, but even Wall Stret knows that Pfizer is a mediocre mens' warehouse. And it's been that way since I got here a little over 20 years ago. It just so happens that they're all white, but that's because most of those guys were cronies who rode Bill Steere's coattails until they were two or three levels above their level of capability.
Ironically, when CEO after CEO came through here from 2005-2015 or so, I saw many of the cornballs get shuttled over to our notoriously bad KAM army.
