A recent survey found that only 16% of pharma execs are satisfied with their companies’ current digital activities, and 84% consider it crucial to have a digital health strategy in place by 2020. Only 13% believe it is crucial to have such a strategy in this present day.

These numbers represent a stark reality: pharma execs are “behind the curve” in exploiting digital B2B marketing, not surprising given the key bottlenecks facing the industry including regulatory and legal issues, ROI questions, insufficient internal knowledge and lack of clear vision.

Cross-functional teams must review, update and improve the broader customer relationship strategy while simultaneously refining tactics that target specific segments within patient and practitioner communities.

Each company must decide on the appropriate design that best fits its structure and available resources. These choices can be based on both the size and needs of the company, together with the degree of internal digital expertise available in the organization or the willingness to invest in external expert resources.
