The life of the Pharma marketer has always been a juggling act (Two hands, Three balls, Endless Effect! A Lifetime of Performance) of managing multiple aspects with adept emotional and mental skill sets. All this, while trying to remain sane in a dynamic and confusing world. As the marketer takes time to make sense of his environment, he attempts to find answers to perennial marketing questions such as:
How is the campaign performing?
What are the new avenues to target customers?
Is the messaging, right?
Are the vendors on track with their deliverables?
Are metrics that we track insightful?
In our rapidly changing world, adaptability is essential. The strategies and decisions that yielded results yesterday might not be as effective today. By actively engaging with and updating our mental models, we position ourselves to adapt swiftly to evolving circumstances. This ensures our decisions remain timely and anchored in the present.
A diverse, summer issue with articles on topics ranging from content marketing to the role of experience in a VUCA world. Also, the latest book for Medical Reps reviewed by Prof. Vivek Hattangadi
We will need to find a way to bring together the capabilities of the Medical Rep, the changed scenario of the visit and the ways we can reach doctors into one single strategy rather than looking at the physical and the digital parts separately. Our medical reps will continue to be the core of our promotion, and our digital strategy will need to empower them to not only do a better call but also support their efforts by building processes that will help them beyond the few minutes that they spend in the Clinic. Marketing budgets will have to move away from conventional investments and also think beyond hardware to increase digital engagement.
