James is talking all about the journey of a pharmaceutical sales rep. The shift to technology showed the missing aspects that field teams could use to be more successful, and he talks about his experience as a sales representative. As a result, he developed Twentyeightb as a tool to assist in the resolution of such issues. There has been much discussion over the years regarding how the role of pharmaceutical representatives will change and whether they will become extinct. James is passionate about the notion that field teams (reps) will always be needed, as well as to make calls in person. He gives examples of how technology can create better education and more trust with HCPs. Based on his experience, he describes why he is so passionate about empowering reps with technology and how more pharmaceutical companies must adopt the technology and a new training mindset.
