The eight steps of the selling process, I feel, were all used in this sales call, follow up, and delivery to Hill House Veterinary Clinic. Mrs. Jones prioritized this prospect of Hill House by calling them in advance and seeing if they need anything and after the phone call, looking at their delivery reports and previous purchases to see if they need any more products. She developed her selling strategy and call plan by researching the veterinary hospital and writing down her strategy and plans and what tactics she will use when she arrives. Mrs. Jones Built her relationships by continuing the relationship and building upon what has already been built, by meeting the receptionist with open arms, going to the back and meeting with the veterinarian …show more content…
Jones prepared before the call by preparing her new program sheets by closely looking at what programs that she thought Hill House would most likely strike a chord with and most likely agree to take part of. Jena also prepared by looking at their previous purchase reports and preparing her thoughts and how these programs will be presented before entering the veterinary hospital. Her prospects were prioritized through a computer system that is constantly updated by all territory sales managers based upon sales potential and need. Jena even has her own personal prospect list that she continuously updates through personal experience, word of mouth, and opinion leaders. The long and short-term sales and call objectives and strategies used by Mrs. Jones were assuring HillHouse that they are what are important to Mrs. Jones and Boehringer Ingelhiem. A frequently used phrase by Jena Jones was “You have got to take care of your people.” The opening techniques used were that Mrs. Jones was very excited to see the owners of HillHouse and was more than happy to help out in any way possible by continuously updated their stock of Boehringer Ingelhiem’s products and services. All of these techniques seem to show that HillHouse is a relationship buyer and Mrs. Jena Jones realizes that and capitalizes by “taking care of her people.” The type of presentation made was very simple yet intricate at the same time, it was simply showing Hill House the benefits of being with …show more content…
Jena Jones of Boehringer Ingelhiem was that she was a very driven individual who is not afraid to take no for an answer yet was willing to know when it was not the customer’s right time to buy. She always had an answer for each question I presented and each answer was thorough and far exceeded my expectations. When dealing with people she was deliberate yet sincerely cared about the individual and how she can help them and their business in any way possible. Mrs. Jones’ effectiveness was instant, it was more than just closing a sale, and it was seeking out her customers needs and meeting those needs at a profit. What I learned from the project was much more than I honestly ever intended to learn. I learned that even in the smallest of towns, the best of business owners and customers could hide. I learned that selling is so much more than being on a phone and calling potential customers, it’s about being proactive in all you do and getting on the road seeking out new customers, as well as, maintaining relationships with old ones. I learned that, in selling, as Mrs. Jones would put “The most important thing in this industry and this type of selling is simply taking care of your people.” My feelings about this project are that I very much enjoyed the entire process and that this was a once and lifetime opportunity that may not come again. I hope to continue to try to take trips like this in the future not for class per say, but to simply

Vet Tech has always been an option for me, helping animals is something that is very interesting. It was introduced in 1989, the AVMA officially adopted the name “Vet Tech.” In 1998, emergency vets debut on Animal Planet. And in 2008, student population grows from 500 to 700. There are about 17,000 people employed in the career field chosen. Some of the common trends of the job would be, working at Zoos, Aquariums, Boarding Kennels, and Wildlife sanctuaries. These jobs are usually found working in an animal clinic or hospitals and sometimes at farms because that is the “normal” areas for this occupation. In this career there are some general duties such as: Observe animals behavior and conditions, Provide nursing care, Bathe animals, Clip nails, groom animals hair, keep animals calm during exams or procedures. The more specific duties of the job would be to: take x-rays of animals and develop them, get utensils and prepare the animals for surgery, keep and record patient's history. Most of the clinics are open 24 hours. There is not anything that is unusual about the number of hours/nature of the job. (Bls.gov.vettech)
In the case study Puckett Animal Hospital: What’s a Veterinarian to Do, Richard decides to end retirement matching and reduce the end of the year bonus to solve his financial dilemma. These cuts free up money to meet the required minimum wage increase, ensure competitive compensation for staff, and achieve customer service goals. Because the receptionist and custodian make less than minimum wages, Richard reduces the end of year bonus and re-allocates those funds towards their pay increases. Incorporating these changes in business operations allows Richard to meet financial obligations and service goals for the hospital.
Have you ever thought about what you need to do should your dog - or another dog - ever suffer a serious, life-threatening injury? What if they have a severe allergy to an insect bite or a bee sting?

For this project, I decided to take on the career of a veterinarian. As a veterinarian, I would have to examine animals to diagnose their health problems, treat and dress wounds, perform surgery on animals,test for and vaccinate against diseases, operate medical equipment(x-ray machines, etc.), advise animal owners about general care, medical conditions, and treatments, prescribe medication, and euthanize animals. To get a job in this profession, you have to have a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree. You also have to have to take many science classes including biology, chemistry, anatomy, physiology, zoology, microbiology, and animal science.You would have to take about four years of college which adds up to about $100,000 dollars in student
Starting back from the time I was only four years old, I have endured many moments with horses that led to my decision to become an equine veterinarian. From caring for my pregnant Palomino horse after she was attacked by my American Bulldog, to having to euthanize my Appaloosa horse, witnessing multiple equine colic incidents, and having a Quarter horse with navicular disease. Even at the age of ten years old, I was waking up on my own at 5:30 AM just to feed my horses. After trekking all the way to the barn in the extreme cold and six inches of snow, I was happily greeted by Cody, my Appaloosa. In that one moment, the early morning responsibilities and freezing temperatures faded away, and were replaced with a refueled passion for veterinarian medicine.

Having an animal can bring great joy to an individual or a family, however financial difficulties can force many families to give up their animals. The American Kennel Club (AKC) projects the average cost of owning dog at 3085 dollars for the first year. The most expensive part of raising a dog was 650 dollars going towards veterinary care (How Much Does It Cost to Raise a Dog?). For a family or individual with low income or unexpected finances these cost can be the difference between keeping an animal and giving them up to a shelter. Shelters in America are making great strides in adopting out animals, however, according to the ASPCA, there is still 7.6 million companion animals entering shelter each year (Shelter Intake and Surrender), and millions of strays living in the streets (Pet Statistics). To lower the overpopulation of pets in America, shelters need to focus on implementing preventive measures, particular low cost veterinary care programs. Low cost veterinary programs would reduce shelter and stray populations, because they reduce the cost of basic veterinary care, like vaccines and flea and tick medications, help reduce the

In a society where most everyone wants to be their own boss, it can be a very daunting task to create and run your own business when you must compete with corporate chains. This problem is especially true for privately owned veterinary clinics that want to work for the betterment of their own community and for themselves instead of working for a corporate entity. The problems that are caused by this corporate squeeze not only affect the businesses of prospective veterinarians but also the veterinarians themselves when they are trying to decide on how to handle their own careers. Take for instance if a veterinarian that works for a corporation is treating an animal for an injury that requires an unorthodox way of care that does not fall in line
