Pharma digital marketing has been lagging behind key trends for a long while. Let’s face it, pharma organizations are not made for speed while digital marketing is all about “now” Digital marketing is also about experimentation and learning from successes as well as failures.

Most of us cut our teeth in a business world where you at least had a cubicle wall between you and your co-worker. Picture it: you finally reach the point where you are about to get your own office, you’ve watched others get an office, you’ve pined for an office. You’ve picked out the wall color, the pictures, the plant you will put on your desk, and as you start to pack up your cubicle your boss calls you into her own office to tell you, “We are moving to open space!

2022 will usher in the demise of third-party cookies—that means pharma brands must change their approach to targeting and measurement.

The pharmaceutical industry has been under pressure for the past decade to change its go-to-market models. While the industry has attempted change, any change to its approach has been guarded. But the industry’s new challenge—marketing and selling in a COVID-19 environment—abruptly changes the customer interaction landscape, perhaps permanently. In office/in person sales promotion, the staple of pharmaceutical company activities, is simply not possible today with interactions reduced to the spor

It all started some 30 years ago. Minimally invasive procedures were relatively new to the surgical environment. These procedures were and are game-changers in the treatment of patients requiring certain surgical interventions. The issue in the early days was that these valuable procedures were very disruptive to the clinical staff. Most of the clinicians had never had any experience with monitors, scopes, cameras, RGB cords, etc.

IN SUMMARY : When patients return to doctor’s offices will HCP’s have time to go online with every drug company that requests an online detail? Will patients be happy with telehealth once they feel it’s safe to return to physicians’ offices?

IN BRIEF: Pharma companies have been posting jobs on LinkedIn almost every day. While most offices remain closed pharma is preparing for the launch of new products and has to have the infrastructure to ensure a successful launch. I keep in touch with all my clients via email newsletters and ask them to “stay in touch” It seems that this year, I’ve been seeing more people leave for other jobs within the industry or clients asking me to suggest people for open positions.

R&D has been replaced with acquisitions. The latest is J&J’s deal to buy out Momenta for $6.5 billion. This week alone Sanofi, BMS, and other big pharma companies have spent billions on the purchase of smaller, promising companies who have drugs that could lead to happy investors. Drug companies have slowed their stock buybacks after the Covid-19 crisis and spent their money instead on buying each other.
