Join MLM company first. After you learn more about those supplements, look up the papers or make cold calls, and it really works, trust me.

If you're talking about selling pharmaceuticals or medical devices, I don't think there's a required degree.  But the best combination would be a mix of Business (Marketing specifically), and science, such as Chemistry, Engineering, or Biology.  That way, you'll clearly understand the products you're selling, and also know how to sell.\n\nHOWEVER, I don't think a degree will be enough to get you that job.  You'll need sales experience on your resume, possibly through a summer job, and it would be better if it were professional sales, rather than retail or door-to-door stuff.  Perhaps even taking a job at the college doing work for the Development Office would help.\n\nMore importantly, what I've seen is that this field, more than any other, seems to hire 'good-looking' people, so it wouldn't hurt to get in shape before you interview.  It isn't exactly fair, but I think it helps to know the reality.\n\nBest of luck to you.

You might try applying at the CIA, NSA or United States Department of State, for starters. They all look for good thinkers with credentials in the disciplines you mentioned. Obviously, teaching could be another useful option.\n\nWith a background like yours, you could also be sucessful in certain areas of sales, although the education is not usually a requirement for sales positions - but the ability to make intelligent conversation is usually a key to sales success.

You could look into becoming a sales rep for a medical device company or a pharmaceutical company. From what I'm told (my husband's a doctor, so he sees these guys all the time), the pay is good, the perks are good, and you get to talk to interesting people while kind of running your own day.

Try the following business.  You can identify people interested in nutrition through blogs, chat sites and nutritional discussions, like on Craigslist.org.  They can become customers, and buy the product, or members and share in the business.

I used to own a gift shop and in order to buy merchandise I attended trade shows.  At trade shows there are lots of independent sales reps that carry multiple product lines.  My advice is to attend as many trade shows as possible and bring samples of your product.  Meet some of the reps, see who you click with.  Some are really pushy and have questionable ethics.  Some are very nice and sincerely interested in acting as a liaison between suppliers like yourself and store owners like me.  Find reps by checking out their booths, seeing what other lines they carry and if your product would compliment their mix.  Then watch how they interact with potential customers that approach their booth.\n\nAnother possible sales tool is to go to your local yellow pages, and get the names/addresses of stores in your area that you think you would like to see sell your cards.  Then send them a cover letter with a free sample of your cards.  Envision how you would like to see your cards displayed and in what kinds of stores, then contact those stores and sell your vision.  Explain how you think your cards would sell themselves and how you would supply them.  Emphasize the good service that you can offer.  Keep track of who you sent samples to, and then a week or two after you mailed them, call the owner of the business to see if they received the sample and if they would like to see more.  You're selling by taking baby steps, which is more comfortable than cold calling.  If you believe in your product, then your enthusiasm for it will help you succeed.\n\nGood luck!!

You are going to need to do lot of cold calling and maybe even showing up face to face for with the business owners/retailers.\n\nWhy don't you hire some sales people to help you?

I have already found a great program that pays good residuals.  Are you referring to an Inc 500 Company that has been in business for over 20 years?  Are they in the Health and Wellness Industry?  Do they Research, Develop, Manufacture, and Distribute... Safer, more effective, higher quality, less expensive, non toxic products? (AND if so, is the Vitamin's delivery method patented?)\n\nIf NOT... would you be interested in "SWAPPING" information?\n\nI love what I do... and enjoy showing people how they too can create an income from home just by "switching stores" and showing others to do the same.\n\nThe Company's Motto:  Enhancing the lives of those we touch, by helping Others to reach their GOALS!!!\n\nIs THAT what you meant?  Contact me through my 360 page!!!

a medical supply representative goes into hospitals and Dr. offices to endorse their product to the company.  I worked in Orthopedic surgery for 2 years and a major company was DePuy that we did business with.  If we were doing a case where there was a total knee replacement, the rep would come in and show their tools and implants that assists better in surgery.

I'll share my own personal experince with you, use muscle building supplements with extreme caution if you must!! The companies that manufacture them have become unscrupulous and they are only keen on making money. They'll put anything in those supplements to make you blow up in no time without any regard to their side effects and your health. And am not talking about just steroids, supplements too!!  Right now am battling high blood pressure and high cholesterol as a result of using Nitro Tech, a leading brand name in the protein shake industry!! In my opinion training on natural food is the best way to go if you are only keen on sculpting and toning up your muscles. Eat foods high in protein but at the same time consume red meat and dairy products sparingly. The best source of healthy protein is chicken, fish (white meat) and plant proteins such as soy beans. Ensure you take in a lot fluids too especially water and home made juices! A lot of bodybuilders really go overbaord with the protein intake and from my experience that's really an overkill. A balanced diet with plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables and high quality carbs such as oats, wholewheat bread, baked potatoes and muesli will do your body a lot of good. Get yourself a health magazine e.g Muscle and Fitness provides some very good insights on a good nutritional plan but in my opinion stay away from the supplements as tempting as they seem. Some of them don't even have patents to back them yet and for that reason they should be labelled as "poison" because that's what they are. Some of the ingredients in many of those supplements are so potent and powerful, they scar and clog up your ateries in no time! This to me beats the whole purpose of body building in the first place which is to maintain good health and fitness. For me even though I am very fit, I lost out on my health. Learn from my mistake and don't misconstrue one for the other because they belong together; Fitness and Health. I hope I was of help. Good luck.

Try Nutrition Marketplace at 8812 Swanson Blvd in Clive.\n\nBut you really need a nutritionist more than a health food store.  Lots and lots of products sold as "health food" may be high in fat, salt, sugar and other stuff you should be trying to avoid.
