Patch????????


BTW, 1 of the top 5 reps just offered his resignation last week. But then again how would you know when your head is between your knees. Look at all the openings on the monthly PCW rankings. Trust me d bag, it's not the bottom feeders leaving. Keep those shares close.
That's very surprising, the top 5 made a TON of money. I don't see a job posting, who left?
 

Well it's pretty clear after the last PC ranking that it didn't pay to do well last year - especially in the second half of the year. How nice of our forecast queen to take what was arguably the best 6 months in recent history and use that as the basis for the Q1 forecast. There are exceptions to every rule, but in general those who led the charge at the end of 2013 are smelling worse than a swarm of stink bugs right now and I bet their pocket books are a hell of a lot lighter too. I'm sure the patch is going to be a game changer just like INR has been. We should have bought 3 tons of Girl Scout cookies at a volume discount and had everyone sell 100 boxes at a 50% profit margin.

Seriously, would you think anything but this? It's no secret the monies paid out last year were astronomic and in no way would broadway joe repeat the same mistake twice. Hence, keep pay-outs at a minimal. Heck, why would he care, his 7 figure income didn't change
 
First of all you should check with the sales force as a whole to see how astronomic the payouts really were. For those who were fortunate enough to exceed their base target, payouts were good but that was the design of the comp plan. They wanted us to grow and be hungry to get there. We did that and it made them all look like heroes. Since all bonus was based on dollar volume, most (not all) large payouts were associated with large contributions to the bottom line. However, there were a lot of reps who contributed in a big way with large volumes who just couldn't get much growth and they only saw the 3% joke of a payout for their efforts. The designers of our comp plan are clearly not concerned with retention and I am sick of hearing that nonsense. I can't wait to see how many top reps move on by the end of the year - my guess is at least 4 of the current top 50 are gone and at least another 6 from the bottom half due to an inability to pay their bills with the goose eggs they are getting for monthly bonuses. Can't we just get this company sold already and maybe revive it's future with some real leadership - PLEASE
 
We are almost to June and haven't heard a peep about this amazing holter patch we are supposed to be getting in the June/July time frame. Sounds like another in a long line of empty promises and unmet launch times - can you say C5, wEvent, 2-in-1 and Novus? What a theme we have going on here.

Spring, 2015.
 
saw lifewatch got theirs to market few days ago . . . lucky them

The patch they got to market is not a competitor for us. It’s a vital signs patch not a tele or arrhythmia detection patch, thus the name VSP. Do your homework before you get on the board at prattle on.

I’m tired of seeing so much misinformation. If you are so unhappy at CardioNet get the hell out.

Another fine comment from DH. Always sticks his nose where it doesn't belong

It is definitely an arrhythmia patch, you should do your homework before speaking. I think it is hilarious when people try to discount LW. They were first with OS, 2:1, and even 3:1. Why do you think they would not be to market first with a patch?
 
Lifewatch might be the first of the bumbling IDTFs with a patch, but they are not the first with a patch. This looks like a clumsy effort and it's completely for hospital use. The ambulatory part is blue sky and a few years away (if it ever comes). And no, I'm not connected to Cardionet. They're just as inept.

Is it still December or next year some time?
