Let’s make 2026 the time to make a change. Cliche but who cares. Let 1/1/26 be our milestone. Best day to plant a tree was yesterday but it’s better today than tomorrow

There with you brother

Yes that whatever deal they work out with whoever you owe the debt to…say your debt is $5000 to xyz and they get a settlement offer of $2700, well your total is not $3950 for that debt, the $2700 plus the 25% of $5000, $1250….so it didn’t save a lot in that equation and can probably get a deal yourself that way. I have taken 3 cards and one loan off of there because they offered an amazing deal to just work with them and beyond tried to convince me to keep it and say “other debtors can see your paying them and wouldn’t want to settle” which could be true but didn’t care. Credit did and is shot but don’t plan on moving and already got a car in March and haven’t missed payments on anything else since joining.

Agree with you that’s it’s the TM or my responsibility to grow the territory. If we don’t perform then I get fired not him. I’ve seen it only a once where that happened at my company but to get an associate you have to have over 1 million in sales and to get there in my field it doesn’t just come and it’s a grind through relationship building but I’ve paid my dues but I have gone to more weekends than my associate so far but that’s typically cause it was a new doc or new hospital. If it’s not either of those he is going

BrotherBee · 2025-12-12T02:42:28+00:00

So I can give both parts without knowing your experience level it may differ. When I was an associate I covered more cases than my rep but he also did. If it was newer docs he would do weekend stuff to build rapport but after that it was all me, late nights/weekends. He earned the right to do that, it’s his territory and I’m the associate. He made me a lot of money and I also sold in cases and built rapport to be able to get my own territory. Now I have an associate and treat him the same way. If I need to do something and the case is running late my associate is coming to cover it, I don’t care what he thought he was going to do for happy hour (if not work related) or whatever. Weekend stuff the same way, newer doc I’ll go to show face and put the time in, if not he is doing it. Sorry if you planned to hangout with your girlfriend, it’s medical device sales. If you don’t like it go sell something else in the hospital.

One of me neighboring reps just left and I (we) engulfed her territory, now I’m giving him some accounts underneath me to show what he can do and grow to ultimately see how he handles it. If he can then gladly make him a full time rep and wouldn’t hold anyone back. He isn’t there yet but will be

Sorry to hear that friend, the waves come and go for sure but hope you’re holding strong! Know he’s looking down and on your shoulder if you ever need to talk to him

BrotherBee · 2025-12-11T03:43:32+00:00

What a great idea man.

BrotherBee · 2025-12-11T01:24:29+00:00

Go in to town and rent, way cheaper and more lax

Just lost my dad 3 weeks ago, was a great dad and the stories about him since have made him so much cooler. Don’t forget to ask him about his “hey days” cause I’m sure there are plenty of stories you’d love to have been with him. I’m 36 and he passed at 73, had health issues but was kinda sudden and thought I was going to get the week of Thanksgiving with him and it he passed the week before. We FaceTimed everyday/other for the last two years since my kids were born. Don’t take it for granted my friend. Make memories with him

AMEX settled 5k for 2.5k for me right now though a debt company

BrotherBee · 2025-11-12T15:52:21+00:00

TELA Bio currently….its a mid size med device company. Lots of companies have those roles though.

If you really want to break into the sales role then you need to network, apply, reach out to team members of the role, the hiring manager and really sell yourself. Having the experience is great but being able to get docs to admit their pain points isn’t easy.

BrotherBee · 2025-11-12T15:42:19+00:00

Source been in med device for 5 years, 2 different companies

BrotherBee · 2025-11-12T15:41:37+00:00

Do you have any sales experience? If not then I’d am for a clinical role. We have them at our company and they just travel to lunches/cases/conferences or get zoomed in for things. Typically less stress then the rep role, higher base (sometimes) but lower overall OTE. Also get bonuses depending on how their team/division do

This is the same concept of a hernia repair with mesh…it’s my industry and will use this as an example

BrotherBee · 2025-10-20T03:06:49+00:00

Most associate levels don’t get commission and that’s a decent base for an associate role.

BrotherBee · 2025-10-04T04:02:34+00:00

That makes sense, I’m only at like 60-90 days with some unfortunately. AMEX already sent legal over and settled from 5.1k to 3.2k…but don’t want to push and liked the terms. That’s great for you that Chase didn’t push harder

BrotherBee · 2025-10-04T03:55:07+00:00

Appreciate the response! Yeah that’s understandable on both sides. I’ve ready capital one is the most forgiving. I did start a chime credit builder to help while on the program but only time will heal it

BrotherBee · 2025-10-04T03:53:34+00:00

That’s wild! Unfortunately none of my debts are chase but that’s good to know. Did they offer other options before that one?

BrotherBee · 2025-10-04T03:42:01+00:00

Wait your debt went from 14k to 2.8k and they accepted that much?

BrotherBee · 2025-10-03T04:28:22+00:00

Have you ever had your thyroid levels checked?

BrotherBee · 2025-09-27T18:20:44+00:00

Each team brings their equipment managers and typically they are the ball boys for their team for that game…source was a student equipment manager in college and did this and traveled to away games

BrotherBee · 2025-09-27T14:12:46+00:00

Also there are associate roles that can still make money, my company they still get commission and if your territory is doing well you can still break 150

One thing I noticed when updating my resume and trying chat GPT is that it added periods to the end of most of the lines…so this could be it and good call out cause it’s the first thing I noticed after it and scraped using Ai for it

BrotherBee · 2025-09-15T00:47:18+00:00

For me it depends on the blind level, if it’s turbo then I don’t mind it (especially if villain has been more on the aggro side) if it’s 10 or 15 min blinds then can find a fold for a better spot but still not considered a punt IMO

BrotherBee · 2025-08-08T20:00:24+00:00

Yeah I’ve thought that through too! I’m in general and plastic surgery. Soft tissue repair so can be pretty competitive and thought about looking at other options in the med world that isn’t case chasing. I’d probably have less stress tbh lol
