6 STEPS TO EFFICIENT AND COST-EFFECTIVE FOLLOW-UP COMMUNICATION

Imagine this: Your sales rep just had a fantastic visit with a health care professional (HCP). They seem interested in your product. What do you need to do to seal the deal and guarantee a sale? Follow-up communication is a critical part of the closed loop marketing process, and it’s imperative for reps to keep customers engaged with targeted content and information. However, rules and regulations make follow-up communication a difficult road to navigate, and life sciences organizations need to be able to balance controlling the narrative with the customer and remaining compliant.

If you want to provide efficient and cost-effective follow-up communication, follow these 6 steps:

♦ Establish Proper Version Control– Guarantee reps can only access the latest documents and messages.

♦ Administrate the Approval Process– Ensure the reps send only approved, appropriate content to HCPs.

♦ Integrate, Integrate, Integrate– Enable reps to respond to requests for content directly from the CRM platform.

♦ Go Configure– Provide configurable options for personalization, HCP signatures and review and approval processes.

♦ Efficient Review Process– Get approved messages to market faster.

♦ Measure and Track– Understand the engagement and impact of messages with built-in analytics and dashboards.

StayinFront Briefcase is an efficient and cost-effective content management tool that enables life sciences companies to seamlessly manage, store and deliver selling content so sales reps can do more, know more and sell more.

The Pitch stage industrializes what good representatives do instinctively. The platform creates a custom pitch for that store buyer, for that moment in time, provides options rather than a single script, tracks the usage of the pitch through breadcrumbs so it can be analyzed later, and automates the administrative process of turning a sales pitch into an order.

Somewhere in the system there are dozens of exception rules firing daily into a representative’s task list. They flag out-of-stocks, price gaps, compliance failures and distribution voids. The rules work. The alerts are accurate. Even so, adoption is somewhere south of forty percent, because the representative opens the list, sees eighteen items, has time for four, and has no principled way to choose.
