Contract

We have for years had no acceptable contract from these corporate raiders. The fact that they are suddenly horny to have us sign something being shoved down our throats now means they simply cannot sell the company as is. Having no contracts with no right to hire our reps is a really bad position for them. I suggest that we all band together and create a union of our $100M in sales and tell them that if they don't sign our version of a contract, they can all kiss their stock price and company positions goodbye. Talk about leverage. I am pushed against the wall by this bully. Sometimes you just have to sock the bully in the nose and go Kamikazee. We will win. Come on, everyone. Show some balls and band together. Everyone else whom even mattered at this company was already screwed before us a long time gone. Do we want to be the last ones holding the bad? Courage. Let's control our destiny.

This usually happens when a deal is in the works to sell the company as part of the sales agreement. I haven't read the agreement but I guarantee you that they're setting you up to take a fall. be careful what you sign and look at it as a forerunner to a termination notice.
 


I don't know who is in a worse position, your management and investors for having a sales force with no enforceable contract with its sales force, or you distributors for having no contract and being forced to sign something with your back against the wall. Sounds like none of you trust each other, so you are all going to get screwed in the long run. Too bad. Your company used to be one I admired. Now you seem lost and just treading water.
 


A medical device distributor with no contract with the manufacturer? I wouldn't agree to sell anything or hire any reps on a guarantee without one! How would you know what you are selling next week? The deal is supposed to protect both ways. If you don't have a contract for longer than a year, good luck! They could sell the company today and you WOULD be hosed. I would demand a long term contract if I were you. Without it, you are all month to month temps.
 


We are temps. Just face it. They are desperately trying to sell the company. They want to make it easier to get rid of us. We need to stand up for our rights. If we band together, they have more to lose than we do.
 






Take a look around the country and see how "Napolean's" contract is doing now. Not one distributor signed TR's original document. They are all different, just like the old days. Where's Doug when you need him. TR can't motivate, Mowry is a ghost to the field and our customers. WTF?
