Medical Sales Question:
What specialty is the most lucrative for medical sales reps?
Answer:
Our background is in orthopedics, and that is certainly one of the most lucrative areas. In fact, any sales role that involves implantable devices and selling directly to the surgeon customer will be an area where you can make (that means earn) a lot of money. This includes spinal implants, orthopedic implants for reconstruction of hips and knees, arthroscopic products, cardiovascular implants, craniomaxillofacial (CMF) products, trauma products (plates and screws), and small joint implants are at the top of the list. Medical equipment sales jobs (i.e. robotics, imaging and diagnostic equipment) can also be very lucrative, as the cost of the equipment and the associated commissions tend to be high. Your selling cycle, however, will also be longer.
