Transcript

The majority of my day is spent discussing my products with the customers that are on my call list and essentially talking to everyone in that office about the needs of their patients and how the products that I have to promote can help address those needs. And that's talking to everyone, from the front desk person all the way to the doctor and anyone in between who has a need to help a patient in the disease state that I promote. Generally, I make between 8 to 10 calls a day. Some of those are scheduled, some of them are not. I do have meetings where we go to prepare, either with new information, and sometimes those are on a national level, sometimes they're on a local level. Additionally, I'm a part of several different teams within our region, so I have meetings from time to time. Those are usually either at the beginning of the day or later in the day. And we do trainings. But generally speaking, each day, I spend the majority of my time talking to customers about why our products can help them meet the needs of their patients, that's the bulk of my day. And I love it 'cause I love that I'm somewhere different every day, but talking about great products and helping patients get the medications that they need.
