\ud83d\ude09Pharmaceutical sales model is changing. Traditionally, medical representatives focused on delivering information to HCPs. But today’s physicians have more nuanced expectations, seeking a blend of information, services, and emotional connection during interactions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Research by Smart Pharma (2016-2021) suggests physician expectations are influenced by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-External factors:Industry trends,competitor activity, and healthcare regulations.
-Internal factors: Past experiences with med reps and the pharmaceutical company.
– Physician personality: Some physicians prioritize data-driven information (“Information Seekers”), while others value rapport and trust (“Emotion Seekers”).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The “Seeker Portrait” model helps med reps identify an HCP expectation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\ud83e\udd14- Information Seekers: These HCPs want in-depth clinical data, evidence-based medicine updates, and the latest disease-related news.
\ud83e\udee1- Service Seekers: They value practical assistance, like reimbursement codes or patient education support materials.
\ud83d\ude0a- Emotion Seekers: These HCPs appreciate a positive and respectful interaction, where the med rep acts as a trusted partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2728\ufe0fThe Rise of the Orchestrated Omni-Channel Rep<\/p>\n\n\n\n
HCPs’ dominant expectations can vary depending on the specific situation and brand (established vs. new, innovative vs. generic).
To effectively influence their behavior, med reps must adapt their approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is where the concept of the “orchestrated omni-channel rep” comes in<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These reps leverage a combination of communication channels \u2013 face-to-face meetings, digital tools, and remote detailing \u2013 to deliver the right information, services, and emotional connection to each HCP based on their unique needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By understanding the “Seeker Portrait” and embracing an omni-channel approach, med reps can become more effective partners in improving HCPs engagement with Pharma!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
