[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sales rep here (different industry)  and I’m curious what values are different? Also curious what you don’t like about working with reps as I’m wondering what my cross functional colleagues think of us! [/quote]

Sales:

1) Are only about the $$
2) Are big picture, don't understand why the details have to be right
3) Don't plan ahead so routine work becomes an emergency
4) has no idea of turnaround time
5) Dip in and dip out of the office all day long, and are frustrated when contracts isn't available in the evenings after contracts has worked 9 hours at their desks[/quote]

Np. In house too.

Ha I always laugh at the sales reps attitude. They’d slit their grandmas throat to get a sales in by quarter end.

I agree with the above.

Don’t sweat the details with them. 
Don’t over lawyer. 
Be patient. [b]They sort of pay for your job and they have a lot more pressure than we do in many ways. [/b]
Prioritize their work (see above)

I never understand how this is perception. They are just part of a chain of providing a product or service to market — they are just the last link so somehow are considered pivotal. [/quote]
