If you want some of the former, then definitely check out “The Beginner’s Guide to Pharma Social Media.” For a bit of the latter, well, you’ll can check out pretty much everything else.
Today’s post has two purposes: first, to announce a major award that Dose of Digital just received, and second, to say thank you for your support in making this award possible.

A few months ago, I innocently agreed to speak at the E-Patient Connections 2009 Conference. I say “innocently” because I didn’t know what I was getting into. It turns out that I somehow agreed to do a Pecha Kucha presentation. How hard could that be? Well, it was one of the most difficult presentations I’ve ever had to prepare. This is despite the fact that a Pecha Kucha presentation is only 6 minutes and 40 seconds. Minor detail though, you get only 20 slides and each slide is on screen for 20 seconds. After that, it advances automatically. No mercy. You don’t get to control it. If you want to see more about this format and see some great examples, check out the website dedicated to Pecha Kucha.

I gave the example of Baxter’s marketing for Aralast as a perfect demonstration of how it can work. I’ve also offered you a few other examples from healthcare and other industries, which can be found on the Marketing with Meaning blog and in the free download of chapter two of the book.

As a recap, I outlined three big problems that I think can be addressed by changing the way pharma companies market their products.
- Horrible PR and public perception from marketing tactics perceived as questionable
