Thanks for the response. Certainly respect your direction but I happen to think the trend will mature versus fade away. I know you're going after this certain niche, which I understand, but I don't think most people care as much a

This sounds about right. My time in the industry, I always remember our top selling rep was basically royalty at the company he drove so much volume - but, he was only about 22 and never finished college or had any actual medical training.

Used to work for a major implant company, we had a cadaver lab at company headquarters and flew in doctors for training. The rep in the OR is mostly just for support. They carry in a bunch of hardware in case the doctor needs to pivot midwa

Pretty cool, I’m sure you’re well aware but I feel like the powder packs are the future here. Makes E-commerce more feasible too. Have you looked into this? Guessing the fresh part rules it out? Writing as someone that’s switched to liquid

Telling someone "If you don't understand this, I don't know how to help you." is unnecessary snide that I was addressing. It is an passive aggressive attempt to assert your opinion as the only valid opinion. > Perhap

I didn’t ask for your help other than accepting other opinions exist. In some cases the distinction is of high value. In some cases it’s at low cost. I’m of opinion this is low value and high cost, thus the cost benefit analysis fails. You’

I half expected that answer and I personally feel it’s not the responsibility of the buses to invest in custom paint to afford you this convenience. Obviously it would be nice if buses ran on time and I could just tell you to rush if you kn

It’s a matter of procurement process and personnel. They simply aren’t always concerned with cost as the primary decision point and thus tend to not negotiate as hard as you might like. I’m in a finance role, company’s money is my responsib

The majority of new-ish master planned suburban communities I’ve seen do have walking paths, bikeways, and parks baked in. Usually with some large HOA maintained pool, theater, I’ve even seen man made beaches (100s of miles from a coast). A
