World of DTC Marketing

SUMMARY: Digital ad spend in pharmaceutical brands is up 111% so far in 2020 and 80% of that money is being thrown away by fraud and the popularity of programmatic advertising. While popular, digital advertising wasn’t an immediate hit in the pharmaceuticals arena due to the strict regulations.

Thursday pharma headlines

World of DTC Marketing
