Delta Medical’s Expert Rx Promotion and Dynamic Consumer Engagement
Our salesforce is the cornerstone of our promotional strategy. We have specialized teams dedicated to promoting Rx products directly to doctors, ensuring that healthcare professionals are well-informed about the latest medical advancements.
Simultaneously, other teams focus on pharmacy promotions, aligning our product benefits with their specific retail needs. In smaller countries or cities, our versatile reps often wear dual hats, effectively working with both doctors and pharmacists. This adaptable approach ensures comprehensive coverage and deep market penetration.

Optimizing a Wide Range of Tactical Channels
In our marketing efforts, we strategically use a mix of channels, including digital, print, and broadcast, to achieve the best reach. For some of our products, an omnipresent approach is key to ensure visibility across all platforms, catering to a wide audience.
Meanwhile, other products benefit from a more targeted, narrow approach, focusing on specific channels that best connect with their intended audience. By adapting our strategies according to each product’s needs, we ensure effective communication and maximum impact in reaching diverse customer groups.
Owned, Earned, and Paid Digital Ecosystem Mix
In our digital marketing strategy, we focus on a balanced mix of owned, earned, and paid digital approaches to strengthen our online presence and boost engagement. This means we use our own platforms, like websites and social media accounts (‘owned’), capitalize on word-of-mouth and customer recommendations (‘earned’), and invest in online advertising (‘paid’).
By combining these diverse strategies, we ensure a comprehensive digital footprint that reaches and resonates with our target audience effectively, enhancing both visibility and interaction with our brand online.
Early Market Access Planning
Our pre-launch strategies involve carefully planning marketing activities before a product launch to create excitement and demand. We collaborate with Key Account Managers (KAMs) and retail chains early on to start discussions about listing new products. This ensures a smooth introduction to the market.
For the actual product launches, we’ve developed a comprehensive playbook that guides us in executing these launches efficiently and with high impact. This playbook is not just for one market; we adapt and apply these strategies in other markets where we introduce our products, ensuring a streamlined and effective launch process across various regions.
In-House TV, Radio, Digital and Webinar Production
Our in-house production capabilities for TV, radio, digital, and webinars enable us to produce engaging and high-quality content. With our own studio, digital designers, videographers, and website administrators, we create compelling commercials and content for various platforms, including TV, radio.
The advantage of having these resources in-house is the seamless collaboration between our production team and marketing department. This close proximity allows for quick clarification, development, and adaptation of materials, ensuring that our messaging and quality are consistently aligned with our brand’s vision and strategy.
Digital and Social Community Management
We actively manage our online presence by overseeing our digital platforms and social media communities. This involves regularly updating content, engaging in conversations, and responding to feedback on various social media channels.
By doing so, we foster a strong connection with our audience, encouraging active engagement and building brand loyalty. Our approach is not just about posting updates; it’s about creating a community.

Symposia, Conferences, and Events
We actively host and participate in various educational events such as symposia, conferences, exhibitions, and even beauty and sport events. This approach is about being where the people are – both healthcare professionals and consumers.
By engaging in these diverse events, we provide educational opportunities and interact directly with our audience. These platforms allow us to share valuable information, showcase our products, and build relationships with attendees. Our presence at these events is a key part of our strategy to educate and engage effectively with those in the healthcare industry and the wider public.

This comprehensive strategy ensures our campaigns are not only cost-effective but also placed in high-impact areas, maximizing visibility and engagement with key audiences across various media platforms.
ePharmacy and Marketplace Channel Planning
