2. Curated Content Marketing for Advance communication
Particularly as increasingly more medical services happen on the web, it’s in healthcare practitioners’ interest to have a greater role as patients continue to look for more data. One strategy progressively adapted by physicians and pharma marketers is to make applications or sites with organized, personalized videos, custom content groups, smart widgets, and different types of content to enlighten patients directly, rather than leaving them to find relevant content in pieces though web searches.
3. Medical Consultation over Phone & Video Calls.
On a similar note, anybody focusing on the cutting-edge healthcare industry in the most recent years realizes that a considerable amount of care is happening remotely via video & phone calls.
While there are limited ways of promotions through remote consultation – and obviously, marketing should always be secondary while providing the best possible healthcare consultations – regardless there are some new chances for pharma marketers to exploit the developing trends in remote technology in the healthcare industry.
This enables physicians to engage with more patients in a safe environment and also provides flexibility to connect with pharma sales reps at their convenient time. This also helps pharma brands to allocate their resources more efficiently as post pandemic trends HCP’s are also looking for more effective ways to interact with sales reps.
This enablement of remote communication also limits the face-to-face interactions with sales reps & HCPs as sales reps can have pre-discussion before meeting with healthcare practitioners this increases the effectiveness of engagement between pharma sales reps & healthcare practitioner.
Since there are lot of misconceptions about wellbeing and medicine on the internet, this is a crucial opportunity for pharma companies to give a more legitimate, research-supported voice on the conditions that affect individuals most.
4. Evolution of Google with featured snippets & Zero-Click Search
Google keeps on evolving toward richer search results with the help of site-links, FAQs to the extent that now a large part of searches end without click. This development of Google search page has huge ramifications for pharma brands. Which makes them compete for valuable real-estate on search result pages just like everyone else & also fight for the clicks in the open market.
This makes it really difficult to educate patients & pass on the legitimate information about medical conditions, as Google utilizes machine learning to drive these results, and likely to pull from third-party websites or even worse from a competitor.
To remain serious around here, pharma marketers should invest strategically in developing strong & up to date SEO with positive online reputation with solid efforts to drive in more searched traffic on the relevant customized content of the website. Also, brands need to update content on a regular basis providing most technically accurate information in the simplest manner.

5. Digital Instructive Videos (AI for more customization)
Online digital videos are helping to increase engagement on all platforms across industry, but for pharma marketers this is particularly important, as individuals who engage with these videos are most likely to take action after an online session – with one research showing 39% of patients called to make an appointment immediately after watching online video.
Furthermore, as streaming speed vastly increases, particularly with the increase of 5G connectivity, instruction videos will become more & more common across industry – so investing resources into this space of digital content will be vital.
Looking forward, digital will just keep on evolving as a portion of pharmaceutical and healthcare spend, with increase in new technology & innovative methods. We may ultimately see the industry pacing-up to catch up with different verticals, especially advancements in mobile technology.
Very few odd features accessible to digital marketers today will be applicable for the pharma industry as more agreements from the leadership along with flexibility from the regulatory bodies such as FDA for a more practical approach considering the changes in the market.
