Pharma: More Customer Service centric?
http://www.healthcarecommunication.com/Pharma/Articles/5_ideas_to_get_Pharma_involved_in_customer_service_10522.aspx
Customer Service add-ons
According to the WSJ: u GlaxoSmithKline u Merck u Lilly are asking their representatives to switch from making forceful, tightly scripted sales pitches to acting more like a resource supporting physicians' treatment. Companies hope to get a foot in the door by providing practical help, such as assistance educating patients about their diseases or navigating reimbursement.
-- Wall Street Journal, 10 Jan 2012
http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052970204331304577142763014776148
Can these teach Pharma something?
http://www.healthcarecommunication.com/Pharma/Articles/5_ideas_to_get_Pharma_involved_in_customer_service_10522.aspx
Customer Service add-ons
u Supporting apps: medication & vital signs trackers, side effects & drug compatibility indicators
u Digital communities: Engagement of the stakeholders where they prefer to be
u Support groups: Online or in-person patient/caregiver support groups — branded or unbranded
u Education: Direct patient education through online courses and in-person seminars, focused on specific diseases
u More personalized support: 24/7 concierge services

Customer Service add-ons
An offering that combines drugs and supporting services can not only significantly increase compliance and health outcomes—indicators of success far more valuable than drug sales—but also create a positive image for a brand among patient groups.

A note about video
HCPs will tell you that video content is effective. In fact, according to Manhattan Research, 70% of HCPs agree that watching video is an effective way to learn new information (Manhattan Research, Taking the Pulse® v12.0)
According to ComScore nearly 50% of consumers report that online health videos serve as a top resource when searching for medical conditions and prescription drug information. 53% of people over 65 watch videos online. (Sources: comScore, 12th Annual Survey on Consumer Reaction to DTC Advertising of Prescription Drugs)

Why Digital Communities?
People are looking somewhere to help….
(patient communities with like-minded people)
Audiences VS Communities
Audience: • is one-way • not interactive • not social • passively watches or reads • doesn’t participate Or share with others VS Communities: • two-way conversation • living, breathing thing • extremely interactive • social • some people just watch or read, but many also participate and share with their friends
Understand why your target community uses digital channels.
Understand what kinds of digital channels they use.
Understand how your target community like to be communicated with. What tone works in what channel?
It is crucial that you provide a detailed description of each of your target audiences. Build community profiles or personas to better understand your community member.

Listening never stops!
Social media enables Pharma marketers to get a better understanding of stakeholder’s emotions and behaviors, and at the end of the day it is emotions and behaviors that impact Pharma sales.
……and here is a hint – it is probably not about you, it’s what are their needs.

information, but for disseminating it.

u Typical CMS with careful workflow design u Doctor Blogs
u Patient Blogs u Forum

Platform specs: back-end
u Listening / Monitoring u Upgrading friendlies to opinion leader status

The future of pharma communities today: u Phones u Tablets
u Nike+ Fuelband u Google Glass
u Oculus Rift

This convergence means something:
1. Communities provide the data
2. Technology collects the data
3. Big Data crunches the data
A community is bigger than just a website or a forum!
