Publicis Touchpoint

Seems Shire and Publicis touchpoint is forming a partnership in neuroscience?

 

And what is piblicus touchpoint and what is the significance?

 

can someone enlighten us?

 

publicis is contract sales

 

So is Shire hiring Publicis

 

This is a great way to save money

 

This makes sales reps temporary, correct?

 

Is this going to be the new inside sales dept? They dissolved the inside sales dept at home office & I heard they were hiring a contract company to handle it.

 

I think you are right

 

So is it true the entire sales force is going to be converted to Publicis or is that just a terrible rumor? Has to be BS, right?

 

Managers have already been informed. Thats why they are non existent....

 

If there is even one rep our there that thinks with even the slightest scrap of their brain that this is true, please jump off a bridge.

 

No way! They would never do that to us...

 

This may be true but wouldn't be a threat to us, I just met a rep from there. They only drop off samples- no detailing at all, no answering questions. This may happen with intuniv in like a year from now, they take over sampling when a drug is near going generic. Don't freak out people, they wouldn't be taking our jobs away, they still need us to launch vyvanse for MDD

 

These people will be working the call center that used to be call inside sales - no one is going to lose their job over this.

 

So the new postings are for Shire and not Pfizer or Amgen? What about Merck?

 

Publicis Touchpoint is not Shires new inside sales force... Shire is contracting with another company to do that. Shire is not going to farm out sales to a schmuck temp co. When 2 other indications are coming... Your job is safe for now
