Most people in pharmaceutical sales would never take a pay cut.
Most people in pharmaceutical sales would never take a pay cut. Especially not to start over. In this episode of the Medical Sales Podcast, I sat down with Stéphan Toupin to unpack one of the boldest transitions in the industry. He left a successful pharma career to step into medical device distribution. More risk. Less stability. But far more freedom and upside. This was not a smooth transition. Divorce. A move from Canada to the United States. Starting from scratch. And building something of his own with no guarantees. Here’s what we get into: - The real differences between pharma and medical device - Why distribution can offer unlimited upside for the right person - What most people misunderstand about the U.S. medical device market - What it actually takes to build something from the ground up - Why freedom mattered more than salary in his decision Stéphan also shares how his company now helps foreign manufacturers enter the U.S. market. From strategy and importing to warehousing, distribution, and commercialization. If you have ever thought about entrepreneurship in medical sales or wondered what it really takes to bet on yourself, this is a must-listen.
