Background & Challenges
A major biopharmaceutical group wanted to deploy a first omnichannel campaign for general practitioners, in a highly regulated environment that has historically focused on compartmentalized communication actions.
The challenge was twofold: modernize the marketing approach and offer a more personalized experience for healthcare professionals while maintaining the rigor of the pharmaceutical sector.
The main obstacles identified:
- Lack of unified target data, making personalization complex.
- Lack of digital culture within the field and marketing teams. Difficulty in adopting digital technology and its benefits.
- Long validation processes hampering the production of tailor-made content. Team already very busy.
- Cannibalization of existing campaigns and lack of coordination between channels.
The ambition: lay the foundations for a sustainable omnichannel strategy, capable of improving physician engagement and accelerating internal digital transformation.
