Note – Your ultimate goal is to create your brand’s image and revenue through digital marketing. The following mistakes can diminish that and inversely cause damage and losses.
1. Promoting Products before the MLR reviews–
Jumping the Gun
Industries with high legal liabilities such as Live Sciences, Medical, Pharma, Insurance, etc need to be indisputable when their product launches into the market.
Promoting a product that is still under review is an expensive wager, especially if the approval does not go through or there is a recall in its early or later stages.
The companies not only suffer huge monetary losses but also damages to their brand value and image.
The Pharma industry suffers more because it is directly interrelated with life and death conditions.
Another major blunder is promoting products that need constant updates and approvals throughout its life cycle. Especially the ones that are under the PMR’s radar.
2. Partnering with the unqualified Digital Marketing Companies
Your Digital marketing team or company should be well versed with the subject on Pharma Compliance, Legal issues, Review Committee expectations, Product life cycle (invention, creation, testing, deployment, etc.) and also should be dynamic and spontaneous to sudden changes in product and policy changes.
If there are any changes to the product at any given time, marketing messages and label description should change to bring them in line with the new regulatory requirements.
Failing to do so may lead to product recall and other complications that will directly affect revenues and resources.
3. No Digital Presence of the Pharma Company
When you start a Pharma digital marketing campaign and reach out to potential clients, the first thing the consumers would do is check your online presence and its worth. This creates a huge vacuum and multiple challenges in your pharmaceutical marketing efforts.
Recheck the facts above. There is one thing common among them.
Every Pharma stakeholder is online and actively searching for solutions that can make a difference in their workflow and their patients.
Creating a communication cycle between your pharmaceutical company, stakeholders, and consumers are the first stage.
Aligning them to seamlessly connect and personalize at each point is the next.
