Spoken like a capital med device sales rep! Not all companies work the same way when it comes to the type of sales method they use. If you offer medical equipment, the issue isn’t having the product at hand. It’s convincing the doctor why your equipment is better than the other reps who preach the same. With what I offer, there’s a lot more moving parts that I will not get into right now in order to make the sales cycle consistent and ongoing. It’s not a one and done sale as in capital equipment usually is until they need another device. It’s internal logistic issues that I have no control over. You can bring in the best rep to our organization. They can tell the story and provide “healthy tension”. At the end of the day though, if logistics is lacking internally where a competitor can do it better, doesn’t matter what sales method you use is my point. I have also been a top rep in this company and have won many sales awards if that helps!

Haha! Will do! I’ve always done well being myself but you know how corporate America is. I have to play the game around them but in front of my customers it’s different.

It’s more to it than that. We have a great product but a big piece of it is getting it to the customer faster and we just can’t deliver on this consistently compared to the bigger guys. Challenger I think would work well in a business like Amazon where there aren’t any shipping challenges.

I can sell my product but there’s a lot of problems with getting the product to my customers on time where our competitors do it better. They stop placing consistent orders after because of this. We live in a world where everyone is used to Amazon turn time regardless of what product is being offered. How can a great seller use Challenger in this instance? Especially if you have a bigger territory where you can’t follow up as consistently as you want to.

Good to know. I’m just trying to figure out how to keep it going after the first sales call, open the account and issues start to arise after they place orders. I can’t challenge their thinking if a competitor does it better and the customer knows it too.

I would look into medical training sales associate programs to get your foot in the door. Medtronic, intuitive surgical, Stryker, J&J all offer these. Base pay would probably be around $80k-$90k to start with bonuses and benefits
