    Just did another program with a speaker who never used Zontivity. Doctor at the dinner asked him what his experience has been with the product. I almost shit when the speaker said he hasn't used it in his practice and the doctor in the audience asked why should any of them use it then? Great way to ensure the drug will never get off the ground.

    something very bad is happening. we've had a ton of MMF's this quarter. 65% of territories report no sales. This is the first time I've seen doctors doing anything to get speaking engagements, acting as though they have experience and are writing. If these speakers were writing, our numbers would look a lot different.

    We're sunk. People are scheduling these programs with the idea that these physicians have experience, but most do not. They are in it for the paycheck only-a huge change from the way it used to be. How much longer can this go on?

    How about Mr. know-it-all who's got several doctors writing? Yeah, right! We believe that one. Nobody is writing. Fourth or fifth consecutive failed merck drug launch.

    Can we get some real resources? How about a better answer to address the bleeding? Doc tells me yesterday that it's better for her if she doesn't used zontivity and deal with the MI than to be sued by patient because of bleeding. She's not going to use it. And there is a lot of CD's thinking the same thing.

    Unless you're in MR. Big-talk territory

    Open your weekly tracker and you will see there are some territories (mainly in the south) that do have people writing. It is certainly not an easy drug to sell but it can be done. What I hate to say is that I think many of our team may not have the skill to properly position the drug. The detailing on the last day at the meeting confirmed this.

    I tell the Docs that the bleeding shows it is working. They are using here in Memphis.

    You tell doctors that the bleeding shows it's working, huh? How frickin' embarrassing. No wonder we're continually losing access with morons like you.

    No, you don't have business in Memphis. You'e an idiot.

    The Derby party with my largest cardiology group solidified my RX output for the summer. Bleeding not a problem when inducements show the way.

    I am going to follow your example and step out of the norm. Pay for the business with unique tactics.

    I hate to say it but I feel as if the HO is dropping the ball with our Zontivity launch. I realize that our team there is playing catch up but they are not getting it done on many levels. Here are a few areas that i see that are killing the brand:

    National speakers that do not write the drug and have nopersonal experience for audience members
    National thought leaders that go to internal Merck programs and return home and continue to not write the drug.
    The AHM nightmare of trying to set up PDGs or MMF programs.
    The brilliant idea to discontinue our Zontivity coupons and vouchers at a critical time during launch mode.
    Lack of updates on out managed care situation.
    Lack of buzz at meetings like ACC and the heart.org.
    These are just a few observations from a rep who has had success with getting a number of cardiologists to write Z for both PAD and post-MI patients

    I like your style and look forward to sharing the stage with you. I ordered the Mayweather fight on PPV at my expensive country club. I did a quick Vora speal between rounds and the 20 year old scotch was flowing. I even secured ring girls to hang out pi's. I am taking the top docs to Mexico for Cinco De mayo.

    Oh please tell us mr know-it-all. Show us how it's done. What was done during the detailing day that confirmed our lack of knowledge compared to your greatness?

    I notice there was no advice. You're a pussy. And you're also a big show boat. This is why you and many of your ilk were let go last year. All talk and no action. You guys think you roll into the cath lab with your fancy integrilin scrubs on and think everyone needs bow to you. Not only are you not fit for the job by way of dress, but also attitude.

    You really do think you're special. Hate to break it to you-but you're not.

    Dude, sorry that you are such an angry loser. By the way I am a former CCR rep and I am here and growing the Z business everyday. If it makes you feel better we have a number of people in our group that have cards writing the drug for both indications. We even have a new person who is already gaining commitments in less than 3 weeks. I never attacked you personally and I do not put on airs about working in the cath lab. Maybe you need to look at how you present data and address your anger issues. Grow up!
