Premium digital experiences and building trust in brands: new rules for the post-pandemic era
Succeeding in the new age of healthcare marketing
The world of healthcare is being revolutionised by technology, and not just in how services are delivered digitally, remotely and with data and AI.
Consumer brands are delivering exceptional customer experiences, which means that healthcare customers and patients alike now expect more than ever from their healthcare brands. The bar for producing marketing and communications that have an impact is getting higher.
Healthcare is changing, and healthcare marketing is changing too
Whether you’re in the healthcare B2B environment, or delivering products and services direct to consumers, the near future offers both new challenges and opportunities for healthcare brand marketing.
Increasingly accessible markets
In some cases, face-to-face consultations have been replaced by virtual ones. This significantly expands the total addressable market, and therefore the target marketing footprint. A reassessment of the potential target audience along with focused branding, and differentiation within niches can increase opportunities for new customer acquisition.
Exceptional customer experiences
With the emergence of healthcare apps, Telehealth services, and prescription home delivery, it is more important than ever for healthcare brands to develop frictionless customer experiences that match the quality of brand interactions that people are experiencing in the consumer space.
Premium hybrid event experiences
The healthcare industry, like many other industries, has had to move event-based marketing online. This trend will continue and run in parallel with the return of face-to-face events. The need to educate medical professionals will remain but the methods will change with the development of engaging online events and targeted pre-event marketing and post-event follow-up.
Practical and compelling sales content
For medical industry sales representatives, the post-pandemic business environment has reduced the need for travel for many and increased the reliance on useful, high-quality sales and marketing content and content automation strategies to stay top of mind with medical professionals without being physically present.
Choosing a healthcare marketing agency
Rules and regulations
Healthcare marketing is highly regulated.If you’re working in this space and looking for a marketing agency, it’s important you choose an agency with experience to help you navigate the legislation and advertising restrictions.
Building brand trust
Successful marketing in the healthcare sector often requires awareness, education, and behaviour adoption – all of which can take time. Consistent, innovative marketing that is driven by consumer insights will deliver the fastest consumer adoption curve.
