Sales Focus, Inc.

There were a few things that needed to be addressed from the managerial side when I first started working with the company. But I am mature enough to understand that there will be unexpected bumps that will appear, either at the beginning or at some point, during my partnership with ANY company. 

So I expect the unexpected to occur.  

By having that level of maturity in thinking, I don't allow the unexpected to interfere with what I can control - my mindset, my performance and my commitment. 

I decided to join this company because they were seeking sales representatives that wanted to help improve lives by working with various  pharmacies in specific territories across my city. 

Knowing I would get to make an impact, make my own schedule and meet new people everyday - was ideal for me. 

In regards to problems, when they present themselves, I simply seek answers. I don't think the worst or give up. I see problems as opportunities to learn something I didn't know before and then apply that knowledge so I can make an even greater impact. 

As I mentioned, there were some kinks, on the managerial side, during the first few days with the company. 

Good news is, they were addressed and the problem has been resolved. 

The hardest part of any sales role (whether with Sales Focus Inc or another company) is having a positive attitude. 

Stinking thinking kills sales, kills relationships and more importantly kills the impact a salesperson could make because because a bad attitude slows down momentum and effort.

I don't recommend this company if you are looking to partner with a perfect company.

I do recommend this company if you are that salesperson that is seeking to partner with a mission driven team and you'd love the opportunity to grow and impact lives.

This is the most unstable company i have worked for by far. where do i even start??

The compensation is okay... but they are VERY late on paying comission. Be prepared to wait at least a month to receive comission. 

They are WAY too laid back and there is a lack of professionalism. There is lots of inappropriate discussion and comments from managers and leaders which made a lot of people uncomfortable. I'm not even going to state what was said...

There is such high employee turnover. In the 4 months I was with the company, there was 10-15 positions refilled due to lack of training, growth opportunities, and professionalism.

The company DOES NOT train employees whatsoever. Most programs only have 1-2 people per program, and are forced to teach themselves which sets the company up for failure. 

Oh, and do not expect any opportunity for growth. The company likes to keep everyone in their current positions and hire upper-level positions externally to make it easier on themselves and save themselves time and $. Also, recruiters will LIE to candidates they interview and say that there are so many growth opportunities at the company when there are NONE.

My manager even told us that this isn't a long term place to work. It's a place to learn and gain experience... I truly advise you to stay away if you want a professional working environment where you can grow and to work for a company that values its employees! I'm surprised the company is still around to be honest. 

Management and teammates are great. Everyone is positive and encouraging during our weekly team calls and group chats. Coming from big and small pharma as well as working for Fortune 500 companies, I would say that the majority of sales people are a stellar bunch that works hard and is proud of their performance. The Sales team is a mix of senior sales professionals with impressive backgrounds that unfortunately have been laid off as well as recent college grads that you can tell were the high achievers and not slackers. As impressive as the team is, it’s very disappointing to know how little we get paid. Close to Minimum Wage pay! So as much as I have the skills to beat my goals, the lack of pay really prevents me from being motivated to do so. No company car but Gas and mileage are paid for by the company. Im sorry if you’re covering a major city, there is no way I’m increasing my stress level searching 20 minutes for parking just to drop off pens and a business card or adding wear and tear to my personal car. Being a small company too, communication gets messy but managers seem to keep their teams informed and organized. High turnover to me seems to be from reps using this job to look for another job.

The people were nice and supportive. There were short  meetings every morning expect one day a week. I had to experience which I was honest about. Was told that wasn't a problem. I was given 2 territories that prev reps had issues with. And I wasn't getting anywhere. My manager was nice and helped me make a sale. But I had dead ends everywhere and it was frustrating. My manager did try to come back out with me to help but there were issues on both sides so it didn't happen. Untimely I was let go out of no where bc I didn't make a sale in 6 weeks. And I had no definite sale coming up so I wasn't given another chance. I was there a little over a month and I had some pto already but I couldn't cash it in. So if you don't have experience or know what ur doing. I don't recommend this job. I was screwed from the get go with having one small territory and again with another one when owners are hardly ever there and that's who I need to talk to so I can make a sale. 

I have been working with Sales Focus for around four months. I came into a sales position that was already established and my job was to maintain and grow the territory, which I managed to do with the help of management. I made a decent paycheck which could have all gone away when the pandemic came. While most businesses shut down, Sales Focus kept our sales force on. We got to work at home and continue reaching out to our clients and maintain and grow our client base, until we were allowed to go back into the field. Throughout this time period we were fully supported by management as we kept our jobs, our full salary and benefits. This is exceptional as so many other companies did not do this, and so many people lost their positions and their income. The job is great as we get to reach out to other businesses that provide a very needed service, and the company is very fair to it's employees, especially in this difficult time. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to find a good, solid company to work with, to apply here. As long as you put the work in, they will support you.

I currently work at Sales Focus and I absolutely love it. First of all, the program I specifically wok for is especially rewarding because it helps make healthcare more affordable, which is something I am passionate about. Aside from that, management has been wonderful and supportive - even through COVID-19. They were successful in keeping us employed (as outside sales reps!!!) during this time. I was so thankful to be able to keep my job and to now to continue doing something I love. The company rewards hard work and performance, which if you're competitive and really love sales, you can appreciate. There are many opportunities for bonuses, competitions, and to work with reps across the country, which I have especially enjoyed. We work as a team, but are not micromanaged - which I also love as it leaves space for us to be creative in our approaches with our accounts.  I would highly recommend looking into open positions at this company if you think you are self motivated, driven, and really love working in sales/business development.

As a territory sales rep, I work remotely which can have its challenges, but there are open and transparent means for communication that are there to guide us and unite us. My management motivates me to run my territory as if it were my own business. With this approach, I have the freedom to achieve my goals by focusing on my strengths.

Our team is very diverse and each teammate has taken a very different career path that has lead them to Sales Focus. So, when I am having trouble overcoming objections, I have a tremendous team around me that I can communicate with to find the solutions to breakthrough barriers and reach my full potential as a salesman.

Additionally, we have monthly team contests which has allowed us to meet teammates outside of our own region. It has facilitated sharing best practices and ideas, while bringing out that friendly spirit of competition.

I have been working for Sales Focus Inc. for 6 months and I basically have nothing but good things to say about the organization.  In those 6 months I have been employed here, I have been promoted several times by presenting myself as adding value through my own initiative. 

They value hard work and commitment.  If you work at Sales Focus Inc. and show your value to the organization, you will be rewarded.  

Sales Focus has also treated me well in my time of need.  I needed surgery and was out of work for 3 weeks.  My position was covered well by my colleagues, and was waiting for me when I returned.  I even received a get well soon gift sent to my house. I know of several companies, with whom I have worked for in the past, that would have simply severed ties with no compassion.  


I have been working at Sales Focus in their Charleston, SC office for more than a year and love it! Leadership rewards hard work and allows for great work-life balance. The HR Department works hard to provide quality and affordable health benefits, while executive leadership continues to update their policies and perks to better serve their employees. I love the people I work with, and the company culture just continues to improve because leadership makes it a priority. SFI has provided me with a lot of career development as well. I look forward to continuing my career at Sales Focus!

SFI does an amazing job providing you all the tools you need to be successful, you just have to be willing to use them. In my time here, I've been afforded the opportunity for continued growth. SFI's culture is challenging, in the best way. The desire to always do better, and be better, is ever-present while still recognizing success and performance along the way. The only serious downside to working here is that as a team, we're spread across the entire country and even the world. I often look forward to the times we can all be together(in-person, or virtually), and usually find myself sore from all the laughter. We take a lot of pride in taking care of one-another both personally and professional- I CAN NOT wait to see what else SFI has in-store for me!
