The competitive environment today is fueling the race to attract

stakeholders

The race is on to win over stakeholders

1

How can we create enough positive awareness,

perception and sentiment among stakeholders to

drive active consideration for our brands?

2

How can we channelize positive stakeholder

experiences to drive advocacy and at the same time

avoid viral negativity of bad experiences?

3

How can we learn from stakeholders to identify

emerging trends, unmet needs, issues and

opportunities across the disease life-cycle?

The advent of social media as a potential game changer: the

trend coincides with the needs that marketers face

Hi.

@MarketingBuddy

What are social networks

• Social networks are groups of individuals

unified by common

• Interests

• Vocations

• Passions

• Needs

• Before the Internet groups were limited

by proximity

• Online social networks are all about the

Long Tail context

• Fans of Walking Dead

• Moms who marathon

• Vampires in New York

Context & Proximity Motivates people to take action because it is relevant.

And It Isn’t New in Pharma

KOL 1.0 KOL 2.0 – the Virtual Community Leaders

A Conundrum

• How can we participate in social & Web 2.0 marketing….while being responsible to our

brands?

Some Things Are In Our Control

• Fresh, factual content is welcome… share it

• Lack of content limits our voice and damages our credibility…speak up

• Reputation and respect must be earned, cultivated, and maintained…

step up

Some Things Are Not…

• Brand bashers

• Modern-day mashups

• The next big thing…

Where Do We Go From Here?

• Use our voices…silence is not golden

• Promote our product benefits…

• Engage where we can…

Avoid Direct Mail from the FDA

• FDA Guidelines

• AE Challenges

Investing in Social

• Setting KPIs

• Driving Conversions

• Measure ROI

46

Be Authentic

• Trust Marketing & Reputation Marketing are more important than ever

• You can fool some of the people…but you’ll probably get caught

New Opportunities

• Innovators and early adopters have laid a solid foundation

• Evolving technology is developing a brave new world…in real time

• Social media marketing is slow

Be the Best 2nd.

49

3 Rules for 2.0

• Speak the Language

• Keep it Real

• Measure, Modify, Move

Thank you!

Let’s be friends.

See you at DTC National 2012!
