Top 10 Reasons to Get Into Medical Sales

10.  You majored in biology, chemistry, or pre-med but don’t want to go to medical school.

9.  You majored in business but are interested in (and have taken classes in) science.

8.  You would enjoy visiting or working in a hospital or laboratory setting, but you’re not so much interested in blood. 

7.  You’re fascinated by exciting, cutting-edge developments in medicine and technology.

6.  You automatically become more interesting at parties.

5.  You’ll be one of the few; not one of the many.

4.  You’d like control over your schedule.  You set dates and times for sales opportunities.

3.  You would like to control how much money you make.  Yes, there are base salaries, but sales reps also work on commission.  The harder you work, the more you make.

2.  You’d like a sales job that isn’t completely tied to the economy…people are always going to need healthcare.

1.  A Top 10 List of High Paying Careers ranks Pharmaceutical Representative at #9 with an average starting salary of $51,000+.  I happen to know of similar sales jobs in clinical diagnostics, research laboratory, histology, pathology, imaging, DNA, cellular, molecular, surgical supplies, hospital equipment, and medical device where you can do better.

    Hi! I know this is kind of off theme nonetheless , I’d thought I’d ask. Would you be thinking about trading links or maybe guest authoring a weblog post or vice-versa? My weblog handles many of the same content as yours and I feel all of us could tremendously benefit from one another. Should you could be interested feel free to send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Amazing web site by the way!
