Basics of Sales Rep Watching

Posted: March 30, 2007

Yesterday, as I was waiting in my doctor's office, at least seven pharmaceutical sales representatives came into and through the office, all within a 30-minute time span!

That's about one rep every four minutes! At that rate, my doctor could have seen about 60 reps yesterday.

To amuse myself, I carefully observed these reps in their natural habitat. It was an exhilarating experience that I urge everyone to try. The beauty of it is, you don't need any expensive equipment like binoculars. You are immersed in the same habitat as your prey -- you can even engage them in conversation.

See today's post to Pharma Marketing Blog for a few essentials for the serious Pharma Sales Rep Watcher.
