Default FOSTEUM -- another loser

Oh my God...we are really in for a difficult sell with this one. No coverage, BID, and expensive as hell. Another true genius was working the day this became available.

I think they are going to change the name to this product to Fostiva. I am sure that it will be as successful as Ostiva was during its peak performace of 25 Rx's (and 20 of those were employees)

you guys sound like winey bitches who suck at ur jobs, so maybe you should try something new. the product has merrit, and even if it did, ever hear of selling something, this job is pretty easy but it may still be over ur heads, maybe you should try being a walmart greeter or something.

wow, so many success stories coming via voicemail. Not fun to listen to when you're on your cell.

Success stories are a joke when they are requested and required which is the case at the moment. You can tell they are extra "creative" at the spin on the store. I think Fosteum is a very tough sell. I've had more doctors tell me that they wouldn't consider using it than doctors that said they would. Most are saying Fosteum is no better than OTC Estroven.

Of course it is no better. It's particularly hard when the doctor askes why is it a prescription. I just smile sweetly and say it's because of the manufacturing processes. Then they want a study. I've run out of studies already!!!!

I cant believe they made Fosteum such a high percentage of our bonus. There is no way the goals can be met. Docs dont care that much about this med food. There are a lot of rep jobs on the boards right now. Im praying for a call about one of them.

They will go back and adjust. They will have to. They've done it before for the CV team. I will not discuss it anymore, unless I am talking to someone who I know is also alternative medicine.

the goal is kinda bs, 90 percent of 64 scripts doesnt sound like much, except we had about 1/3 the qt, we are selling DR on a new treatment regiment as much as a product, and if u bust it out and get 50 scrips first qt, u'll prob end up first in the region and still not get anything , thats pathetic.
