Pharma Sales vs 1099: The Real Tradeoffs No One Explains


Listen Later

In this episode of the Medical Sales Podcast, Samuel Adeyinka sits down with Bruce E. Brown, a seasoned sales professional with over 20 years in pharma who made a rare and successful transition into medical device sales as an independent 1099 distributor. Bruce shares how he broke away from the corporate structure, built his own LLC, and created a sustainable business by representing multiple product lines. He reveals unconventional but effective strategies for gaining access to surgeons and hospitals, lessons learned from the opioid era, and the realities of commission-only sales. This candid conversation offers a behind-the-scenes look at what it truly takes to survive, grow, and thrive as an independent medical sales professional.
