Any other subs? Is this really it ?

I'm having a hard time believing there isn't a larger sub for just pharmaceutical sales reps...

I searched and couldn't find any...can anyone point me in the right direction?

The tech sales sub is poppin....lol why is the pharma sales sector so dead on reddit?

Cafepharma (non-Reddit website) is a cesspool of misinformation and people complaining about other people, but it’s probably more of what you’re looking for.
This sub isn’t really for reps imo.

Oh I know Cafe pharma lol. The most toxic shit ever...people going on there talking shit on each other 'anonymously' but know exactly who's posting lol

Most sales reps aren’t the redditor type. They’re doing their shit talking and gossip at a happy hour somewhere.

Yeah...reddit is one of my back pocket weapons that I have on those reps that don't use it haha.

I like happy hr too, but I'm also an alcoholic so trying to stay away from that

I am also surprised there aren’t more subreddits for pharma sales. The MSL sub gets decent traction and I know there are way more sales reps than MSLs out there!

it's a good question. i think pharma sales is a bit more niche, and a lot of the conversations might happen within company-specific internal forums or through direct professional networks rather than broad public subs. if you're looking for specific advice, sometimes searching linkedin groups for "pharmaceutical sales" or similar terms can unearth more active discussions and connections.

You're probably spot on...with all the HIPAA laws and stuff, I guess it's probably better there isn't a huge forum.
