This document discusses selling skills for pharmaceutical representatives. It outlines the steps of a sales call which include prospecting, preparation, approach, presentation, objection handling, closing, and post-call analysis. Preparation is key and involves knowing the product, disease, doctors, and competitors. During a presentation, representatives have a few minutes to convince doctors of a product's efficacy, safety, and benefits for patients. Representatives should address doctors' questions confidently and look for buying signals like nodding or re-examining samples. Follow-up is also important to improve the effectiveness of the presentation and fulfill any commitments made to doctors.
