If you want to thrive in medical sales, motivation isn’t the problem.
Training is.
I sat down with Amy Harrington on the Medical Sales Podcast, and this conversation hits on something.
I see all the time, reps are expected to perform, but they were never truly trained for the real world.
Amy’s path is anything but traditional:Surgical tech → nurse → orthopedic rep → sales training leader.
That perspective matters.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Why confidence comes from knowledge, not scripts
- How top reps sell with science and understanding, not memorized talk tracks
- Why acronyms and rigid sales models break down in complex clinical environments
- How strong training bridges clinical complexity with real-world selling
- Why emotional intelligence and curiosity separate average reps from top performers
If you’re a rep who wants a sharper edge, or a leader trying to build teams that actually perform, this episode will shift how you think about training.

One more thing.
As we were talking about training and career development, it reminded me of something I see often, a lot of reps want structure, clarity, and a real plan, not just advice.
