| Summary: | Esta dissertaÃÃo analisou a orientaÃÃo de trabalho do propagandista da indÃstria farmacÃutica no mercado de Fortaleza, mediante a aplicaÃÃo da escala SOCO (OrientaÃÃo a Vendas - OrientaÃÃo ao Cliente), que, por sua vez, teve o objetivo de medir o grau de comprometimento dos propagandistas na venda orientada aos mÃdicos, ajudando-os a tomar decisÃes de compra que irÃo satisfazer suas necessidades. Foi avaliada a orientaÃÃo de trabalho do propagandista da indÃstria farmacÃutica na opiniÃo do prÃprio propagandista e do mÃdico, alÃm de comparadas suas respectivas percepÃÃes sobre a orientaÃÃo de trabalho do propagandista. O estudo baseia-se no pressuposto de que a orientaÃÃo de trabalho do propagandista da indÃstria farmacÃutica à voltada para o cliente, tanto na opiniÃo do prÃprio propagandista quanto na opiniÃo do mÃdico, na cidade de Fortaleza. Para atingir os objetivos propostos, o estudo aborda o marketing e as orientaÃÃes da empresa para o mercado, o mix de comunicaÃÃo de marketing, como tambÃm a indÃstria farmacÃutica. A pesquisa, de natureza qualitativa, foi realizada em outubro de 2006, com a aplicaÃÃo de questionÃrios com a escala SOCO. A investigaÃÃo, com natureza descritiva, concentrou-se no levantamento das opiniÃes dos mÃdicos e propagandistas quanto à orientaÃÃo de trabalho destes. Foram utilizadas para a realizaÃÃo do estudo algumas tÃcnicas, como: distribuiÃÃo de freqÃÃncias, apresentaÃÃo de grÃficos em barra, teste de normalidade, teste de tendÃncia central, teste de mÃdias e teste da diferenÃa de mÃdias. A amostra, do tipo nÃo probabilÃstica, foi composta de 40 mÃdicos e 40 propagandistas. Por fim, foi apresentada a pesquisa de campo que, a partir de seus resultados, mostrou que os mÃdicos nÃo percebem os propagandistas tÃo orientados para o cliente (os prÃprios mÃdicos, no caso) como os prÃprios propagandistas se percebem. O estudo permitiu ainda identificar as discrepÃncias entre as percepÃÃes dos mÃdicos e dos propagandistas quanto à orientaÃÃo do trabalho destes. === This dissertation analyzed the work orientation of sales representatives in the market of Fortaleza. It was done through the use of SOCO scale (Sales Orientation - Customer Orientation). The use of the scale had the objective to measure the degree of commitment of the sales representatives during an oriented sale to doctors, helping them make buying decisions that will satisfy
their necessities. The sales representativesâ orientation was analyzed using their own opinions along with the doctorsâ opinion, besides being those compared to the respective perceptions about work orientation of the sales
representative. The following study was based on the prior conjecture that the orientation of the sales representative in Fortaleza is customer oriented, in the
representativeâs opinion, as well as in the doctorâs opinion. In order to reach the proposed objectives, the following study approaches marketing and the companyâs orientation for the market, the mix of marketing communication, as well as the pharmaceutical industry. The qualitative research, referred here, was done during October of 2006. It was done through the use of questionnaires with SOCO scale. The descriptive investigation was focused on gathering opinions of doctors and of sales representatives, which referred to their work
orientation. To fulfill the objective of the referred study, different techniques were used, such as: frequency distribution, presentation of bar graphics, normality
test, central tendency test, average test and test of difference of average. The non probabilistic sample was composed by 40 doctors and 40 sales representatives. Ultimately, based on the results obtained, the field research which was presented showed that the doctors donât see the sales representative so oriented to the customer (the doctors themselves, on this matter) as much as
the sales representatives see themselves. The following study has also allowed identifying the discrepancy existing among the doctorsâ and the sales representativesâ perception of work orientation of the sales representative.
