F*ck Reps

[IronJulius]

First off I apologize for being out of my thread

This may seem weird me starting the thread and I understand the risk I'm taking of the roast that will probably come along

I personally have never cared for reps. I understand the need but many are just some salesman gear whores (everyone reading this is a gear whore on some level) I actually do know many reps who really want to be helpful and go beyond duties for the right reason. Not for the company or your reputation but because you want to help and have probably been in a similar situation because let's face it shit happens so thanks to those guys.

So back to the fucking sorry reps and or sources. I'm not going to call out names and hopefully this thread doesn't but what are some things you see or seen that pissed you off or that newbies should be aware of? I actually just seen something on another board that pissed me off so maybe this thread turns into something helpful. Maybe it will help me become a better rep or I might end up offing myself who knows

Pushing a product they know is garbage even after the user is having negative reaction to it. "Just lower the dose" they say "u'll be fine". More than likely don't even use the shit themselves.

Call them out with proof-> biggest help for the community otherwise this looks like a veiled Pcom PR stunt

[IronJulius]

I'd love for you to break this down for me... So I can proceed to pick you apart on it.

That statement sounds EXACTLY like the kind of thing a rep would say, wouldn't it? It's called justification.

Ok I'm just a gear whore

Edit this is what I get for focusing on others instead of myself. I can only change myself

I'm really not a fan of kill yourself jokes.

Most reps are bottom feeding gear whores who push the narrative of labs even as they go to shit and then try and distance themselves at the end and play the I was trying to help the members bullshit. I've watched it happen plenty on other boards and it's garbage.

The ones that say "we do it to help the members" are full of shit. If they wanted to help members they could better do it with advice, vetting or any number of ways.

I think you've done a good job for the most part.
It's pretty awesome how many contests you do with PCOM.
Sounds like when someone has a problem you reach out to them.

I'm a gear whore, I think everyone pretty much is. I just don't rep so I think we all know what it's like. There are always going to be haters of certain brands but I hate the unwarranted claims.

If I had to say what you could do to build upon, from the negative comments, you should encourage a good testing program. I like PCOM's policy but maybe there are ways to explore a better way to do things. It's always a tricky slope.

But the new problem that has arisen is this huge influx of Customs seizures. All sources are under pressure now that the landscape has changed. So I think your policy on seizures has to develop better. From better communication on shipping from the factory vs not factory. The tightening of things is a new challenge. If Customs in US/CA have increased to catch 8/10 packages, 1 free reship has now become non feasible. The Buyer can't be expected to keep reordering with those risks. I know the option is domestic, but that isn't the bulk of your business I would imagine. It's those factory orders with the great pricing breaks.

Anyways my 2 cents...

You're one of the better reps I've come across IJ and have helped me personally on multiple boards since I started this journey even though I never purchased from you. So for what its worth, thanks.

Based on your posts, you have things going on in your life. Do your best, its all you can do brother.

My previous post was not directed towards u. I have no issues with u or Pcom for that matter...just wanted to clear that up. Post was originally concerning a recent thread on BOP about a member there having really bad/uncommon sides on Puretropin n a sponsor/rep there urging them to keep using product.

Seems like ur really struggling with something? Regardless of ur rep status n the fact some feel like ur no longer a "member"...ur still a human being...hope u get things figured out n wish u all the best.

Worst thing I've ever heard of a rep doing was talking orders after their lab was busted.

*cough* @mission2

But anyway, Northern Nutrition is a pretty good dude and gives out solid advice. There are some good reps out there. The Nordic Fusion rep is good people, too, although he doesn't post here anymore.
