Project Example
Awareness campaign for identifying rare diseases

Initial situation

A pharmaceutical company had developed a therapy for a rare disease which is often not diagnosed early enough. The goal was to educate general practitioners (GPs) to identify potential patients and refer them to specialized centers for further diagnosis.

  • Raise awareness of the disease among GPs.
  • Identify patients with suspected cases of the rare disease.
  • Refer patients to specialized centers for accurate diagnosis and therapy.
  1. Focused visits to physicians:
    first pharma representatives conducted educational discussions with GPs to raise awareness of the disease and its symptoms.
  2. Targeted referrals:
    Identified potential cases were referred to specialized centers designated by the client for further care.
  3. Specialist support:
    The client’s field team built up relationships with specialists in the centers to ensure smooth collaboration.
  4. Performance measurement:
    Success was evaluated based on the number of identified and referred patients as well as initiated therapies.

Through the awareness campaign, first pharma achieved:

  • identification of five new patients with the rare disease.
  • accurate diagnoses and effective lifelong therapies for these patients.
  • a successful return on investment due to the long-term nature of the therapy.

Project example
successful pilot phase for sales promotion

Initial situation

A pharmaceutical company wanted to test whether promoting a specific product through personal visits to physicians would result in a measurable increase in sales. The aim was to validate this in a pilot project before implementing it nationwide.

The pilot project was designed to demonstrate whether the planned promotional measures would lead to increased sales. Positive results would result in a rollout across Austria.

  1. Defining the test area:
    Selection of a representative test region with a sample of 50 physicians to obtain meaningful results.
  2. Targeted promotion:
    Conducting structured physician visits to present the product and highlight its benefits for patients.

    Statistical recording and evaluation of results at the end of the pilot project to measure the impact on sales.
  4. Results presentation:
    Results were presented to the client and formed the basis for the decision about a nationwide rollout.

The pilot project confirmed the positive impact of the promotion on revenue:

  • Significant sales increase in the defined test group.
  • High interest and positive feedback from physicians.
  • Recommendation for expanding the sales activities, which was successfully implemented.
