About this episode
In Part 2 of this Medical Sales Podcast conversation, Samuel continues the deep dive with Rashago Kemp, a regional director in the biologics and wound care space, breaking down the real differences between W2 and 1099 medical sales. Rashago shares how he manages independent reps, why leverage and motivation work differently outside of W2 roles, and what separates average reps from elite performers in the 1099 world. They unpack earning potential, commission structures, distributor models, and how top reps scale into multimillion-dollar businesses. The conversation also explores leadership, reputation, long-term relationship building, work ethic, family responsibility, and the nonnegotiable habits required to win consistently in medical sales. This episode is a must-listen for reps deciding between W2 and 1099 paths and anyone serious about building a high-impact, high-income career in medical sales.
