Who’s the most effective in pharmaceutical sales force? Pfizer.

I found a great article for you from www.pharmalive.comPfizer Again Tops Annual “Most Effective” Sales Force Ranking.  It’s the results of a study by GfK Market Measures, who surveyed more than 800 physicians across 12 specialties.  Rankings of specific companies show that pharmaceutical sales reps from Pfizer are #1 with physicians, followed by Merck, AztraZeneca, GSK, Eli Lilly, and Novartis.  (See a detailed discussion from ZAMP Bionews.)

What makes these medical sales reps so successful?  Besides “positive professional attributes,” physicians cited these needs from representatives:  product information, research data/clinical literature, educational materials, cost information, and knowledgeable reps who can answer questions. Interesting.
