As a medical sales representative, you are mostly the middleman that links the pharmaceutical companies and healthcare professionals. Your job is to promote the products of your company to the doctors, pharmacists, and nurses, and convince them that they need them.

The efficiency and productivity of a medical sales rep are based directly on how well he/she can sell the products and increase product awareness. They also answer queries about the products and introduce new products into the market.

'''Duties of a medical sales representative'''

Medical sales reps aren't only involved in sales and product promotion within a company. Their responsibilities also include:

• Negotiating contracts with customers

• Managing budgets and finances

• Keeping accurate and detailed records

• Presenting and giving demonstrations on how to use the products

• Organizing consultations and appointments with healthcare staff and professionals

• Reviewing sales performances

• Putting together conferences and trade exhibitions for customers and consumers.

'''How to get a medical sales representative job?'''

Medical and pharmaceutical companies typically hire medical sales reps. Employers usually look for a degree in life sciences such as pharmacy, nursing, and medicine.

Most employers lookout for fresh graduates. However, a background in sales is advantageous for you. Also, some employers may consider a school leaver if he/she has additional certification. You are also required to have a full driver's license.

Pharmaceutical and medical companies tend to go for young and agile graduates that don't necessarily have many years of experience. This is because, most companies prefer to train their medical sales representatives over a few months, along with supervised sales, before letting them work on their own.

'''How to earn money in sales as a medical sales representative?'''

Making money in sales is a direct function of how you, as a pharmaceutical sales representative, approach your work. You have to be a skilled salesperson, with solid interpersonal skills and organizational skills. Here are some ways you can improve your moneymaking skills as a medical sales representative:

• Get a good deal with your company: Many companies offer a basic salary, along with a commission by pay. This deal helps you earn more as you are rewarded based on how productive you are. Some companies also allow you to have flexible working hours.

• Think outside the box: To make a good earning as a medical sales rep, you shouldn't focus on just sales. Taking advantage of marketing techniques and relationship skills can significantly raise your earning potential. Expand your knowledge, experience, and communication skills.

• Present yourself as willing to learn: Employers appreciate having a representative that is always open to change and learn. Being too rigid affects your ability to adapt to new methods and opportunities. Your willingness to learn will endear you to your employers and customers.

• Gain good connections: Improving your selling game may look like the obvious way of gaining sales, but you shouldn't focus on just that. Networking and forming relationships inside the medical field can go a long way in improving your sales. Identifying the right customers allows you to focus on the top buyers, which enables you to reduce your working hours, while you maintain good deals.

• Have set goals: Some employers have a minimum target for each sales representative, but you should also have your own set goals. Also, draft out a working plan on how to meet each goal. You should also measure your performance at every step so you can improve.

• Identify your customers' needs: As part of developing a good relationship with your customers, you also need to establish trust. This can help you identify the needs of your customers and strengthen your relationship.

• Ask for help from your peers and superiors: In the world of sales, no man is an island. They may help you establish that particular connection you've been unsuccessful in making. You can also learn from them and improve your skills.
