Dear drug reps,
If you see that I am busy, please do not bother me. I honestly have no interest in the bullshit that your are selling, nor am I interested in selling your product, for you, to a patient who can't afford the upgrade, and especially if they don't need it.
If I ask you a question, I appreciate an honest answer. I understand you answer to your bosses, but I'm not going to rat you out. I just need facts, not opinions. I will make up my own mind about it, and the less bullshit I have to sift through, the better your product will be remembered. But what's worse than a slick salesperson? a dumbass one. Don't lie to me, I didn't go to school for 6 years to be talked to like an idiot. If you don't know, just say so and look it up. I don't need guesses. I can make better guesses than you can, but it's my license, and my patient's health that are in jeopardy when you misinform me. I just need honest, factual answers and when it comes time for me to decide whether or not to give a patient something, it will be strictly about the medications and not about you.
One last thing, If I took the time to listen to you, you NEED to buy me a coffee... I'm probably holding a cup as you speak to me, but that's not the point. It shows that you value my time, and you appreciate my attention. It is not about greed, possibly about ego, but for sure about respect.
Thank you.
