yeah, i dont think you are fully appreciating what a "sales rep" brings to an organization. Of course they are needed, I work with many of my webmasters offering tips and help where i can. That is a valuable service which ,when used effectively will almost always result in a percentage increase in the webmasters earnings.
Some reps may come off the wrong way at times, but for the most part their dedication to one company is highly valuable.
It is hard to quantify the number of ways a company benefits from a professional helping to market their product.
