Background For the second consecutive year, comScore Inc, and Evolution Road have partnered to develop and publish consumer e-marketing effectiveness benchmarks for the pharmaceutical industry. These benchmarks are based on aggregate and blinded data across a multitude of studies conducted over the past five years. Utilizing comScore panelist behavioral and survey data from current and prospective patients, these benchmarks provide pharmaceutical marketers with a better understanding of which e-marketing initiatives whether online banner ads, search marketing or branded and unbranded websites have the biggest impact on brand awareness, brand favorability, incremental new patient starts and incremental current patient adherence/next fill. Specifically, the data provides pharmaceutical marketers with the information needed to make smart decisions about e-marketing by answering questions such as: Does putting resources towards a Web site have an impact on brand favorability, awareness and sales? Do online banner ads help generate new patient starts? If so, which types of banner ads are most effective in doing so? Which online initiatives are most beneficial in sustaining current patient adherence? Carolina Petrini, SVP, Marketing Solutions at ComScore, provides some answers to these questions in this podcast.
