Chapter 2 – Conceptual Discussion ( Literature Review )
“Digital ”has become an integral part of everyday life. All sectors have adapted to the digital
world faster. The pharmaceutical industry, with the exception of websites, has not been able to
fully embrace digital marketing. The pharmaceutical industry has many problems with
marketing. In this generation, more and more pharmaceutical companies are using social media
sites or e-commerce sites as a digital marketing tool. It allows customers to buy products
online. Many companies try to understand digital and physical value, while others combine it
with a broader marketing strategy. To increase brand awareness, pharmaceutical companies
partner with influencers to find new ways to market their products. For example, if a
pharmaceutical company approaches asthma patients, an influencer who is highly engaged in
any social media platform and has previous exposure to the same disease can be effectively
contacted to attract the interest of asthma patients. Agents may also be useful in medical
products or medical devices. However, not all companies can sell products online because they
manufacture prescription drugs that cannot be sold online. YouTube, daily motion, Instagram,
Twitter and Facebook were used to communicate with customers. Northeast-based
pharmaceutical companies Quantum Pharmaceuticals and The Specials Lab offer an online store
for specialty drugs that facilitates e-commerce and online marketing...

3. Digital pharmaceutical marketing: A review ( MARCH 2021 )
Digitization has become an important part of everyday life. All industries have adapted faster to
the digital age. However, digital marketing has not been fully embraced by the
pharmaceutical industry, except on the Internet. More and more pharmaceutical companies
are now using social media or e-commerce sites as a digital marketing channel. It allows
consumers to buy products online. Some organizations struggle to understand the true meaning
of emerging technology, while others integrate it into their broader marketing plan. However,
not all companies sell products online because they produce prescription drugs that cannot be
sold online. For example, through social networks, Pfizer is engaged and attentive to its
customers. YouTube, Facebook and Twitter were used for consumer communication. Johnson
and Johnson were the first YouTube channel founders. At Quantum Pharmaceuticals and The
Specials Lab, pharmaceutical companies in the Northeast region offer e-commerce and
digital marketing for specialty drugs..
4. E marketing strategy in health care using IoT and Machine Learning ( DECEMBER 2021 )
The Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine Learning (ML) have wide applications
in several fields, one of which is the healthcare system. The rapid growth and development of
the web has led to the demise of traditional patient care methods
and their replacement by electronic health systems. Internet of Things (IoT)
technologies provide healthcare professionals and patients with the latest
possible medical device ecosystem. Connected things with the Internet of Things (IoT) and
machine learning are useful in many different categories, from remote monitoring
of today's environment to mechanical automation. The importance of digital marketing in
healthcare cannot be overstated. Doctors and medical professionals now have the opportunity to
promote their services through digital marketing to people around the world, not just in their
immediate area. With digital marketing, healthcare professionals can demonstrate
their expertise to potential patients, expand their professional field and improve the image of the
healthcare industry. In addition, medical applications have shown a strong desire for Internet
of Things (IoT) things because they are cheaper, easier to understand and increase the personal
happiness of patients. The development of a network of portable and implanted health facilities
encountered a number of difficulties, which are described in this study. This article provides a
detailed overview of IoT and machine learning with a focus on healthcare, followed by a list
of healthcare applications involving machine learning (ML) and the Internet of
Things (IoT). provided, as well as any problems and difficulties that may arise from the use
of this application or phone in the health system and their important application..

5. The Role of Social Media in Healthcare Marketing ( JAN 2024 )
The chapter discusses the characteristics of using social media in the health sector. It is
emphasized that the role of social media in the age of digital technologies is growing, especially
in the market of medical services, which increases the participation of consumers in the field
of health care. Digital technology is gradually being adopted in the healthcare industry in
Georgia, and more and more medical organizations are using social media marketing to
communicate with patients. Despite this, the use of social media in health organizations is
insufficient. One reason for this is the lack of research in this area. With this in mind, this
chapter presents a study that examines the impact of social media marketing efforts on
consumer health care behavior. Social media marketing activity, consumer engagement,
consumer trust and behavioral intention are selected as the main variables of the study. A
conceptual model was developed from the research and significant hypotheses were established.
6. Boosting Health Campaign Reach and Engagement Through Use of Social Media Influencers
and Memes ( APRIL 2020 )
Public health organizations are increasingly using social media as a distribution channel for
health campaigns because these platforms can provide access to "hidden" or at-
risk populations, such as people of color and youth. However, few studies
systematically evaluate the impact of such campaigns in a competitive communication
environment characterized by a flood of sophisticated tobacco marketing. The aim of this study
is to determine how the content and source characteristics of Twitter messages about ®
campaigns affect their popularity, support and reach. Keywords were used to collect six
campaign-related tweets sent by the Twitter Firehose between August 2014 and June 2016. The
data was analyzed using supervised and unsupervised machine learning,
keyword algorithms and human coding. Tweets were categorized by source type (direct
or Truth ® -owned social influencer; non-influencers). Tweet content was coded and categorized
by valence and campaign references (branded vs. generic or organic
content). Message coverage was calculated by source type and message type. Keyword filters
captured 308,216 tweets from 225,912 Twitter users. Results showed that campaigns
that used social influencers as a message source generated more campaign-branded
and shareable content (such as campaign hashtags) and more tweets per day and reach per
day. Influencers posted fewer organic posts and more branded/shareable content, generating
greater reach compared to non-influencers. Opposing posts have decreased over time. Using
social media cultural elements such as popular content creators (influencers) and
messages (memes) is a promising strategy to increase interest and engagement in a health
campaign..

7. Digital Marketing in the Development of Pharmaceutical Companies: The Current Aspects
and Perspectives ( NOV 2022 )

global customer base and offers several opportunities to promote and promote the
sustainability of a pharmaceutical company. It has been found that e-mail, electronic data
privacy, augmented and virtual reality are the practical working tools of
digital marketing, the use of which lowers the costs of pharmaceutical companies. It has been
found that due to modern conditions, pharmaceutical
companies are intensively using social networking platforms for drug promotion
and branding. Digital marketing tactics such as content marketing, search engine
optimization, email marketing, social media, etc. effective tools for drug promotion were
found. It has been found that digital marketing produces valuable information that has a
significant impact on the pharmaceutical industry, so pharmaceutical
companies increase consumer satisfaction through mobile applications and networks, which
allows the pharmaceutical company to increase sales and profits. It has been found that
pharmaceutical companies are increasingly using social media to target customers, increase
public awareness of their drugs and services, and seek more
effective ways to connect with their target audience. It has been observed that for
pharmaceutical companies, an e-commerce platform is the foundation of a digital presence,
and improving the customer-facing infrastructure with well-integrated
systems helps ensure the right kind of customer interaction. It has been determined that the
benefits of social media and online marketing are particularly important for pharmaceutical
companies, as they are crucial for more effective digital marketing.

9. STUDY ON DIGITAL MARKETING STRATEGIES AT THE PHARMACEUTICAL
SECTOR ( JUN 2021 )
The purpose of this article is to explore the great impact of digital marketing on the
pharmaceutical industry and how people would deal with such developments. The
industry operates under strict regulations, so it is imperative that your pharmaceutical
marketing strategy and advertising campaigns comply with industry rules
and regulations. New technologies are already helping businesses reach more customers,
and many businesses around the world are taking advantage of social media and capitalizing
on its viral spread around the world. However, digital marketing in the pharmaceutical
industry offers ample opportunities for all companies to promote brands and products to the
right audience, from doctors to patients. Digital marketing is an evolution in the pharmaceutical
industry as drug companies use technology-based apps to help patients learn more about
their illnesses and monitor their health. It can also help give doctors an idea of the
patient's health and the potential side effects of any product. For
years, the pharmaceutical industry has been trying to keep up with the fast pace of
technology. However, it is still unclear to the pharmaceutical industry how new digital
technologies will affect the development and marketing of drugs..
Social media and social networks are all the rage these days. The healthcare industry
in general, and the pharmaceutical industry in particular, is shaped by electronic communication
through social media. Thanks to this, marketing practices are
also developing rapidly. Pharmaceutical marketers need to better understand how social
media works and how it affects marketing strategy. This chapter examines the growing word
of mouth literature, particularly on social media, and how social media and social networks are
redefining marketing strategy in this context. It provides a framework for analyzing
the impact of social media on patients, clinicians, and marketers. It provides
practical implications for pharmaceutical companies, provides pointers for the successful
development and implementation of an integrated social media marketing strategy, and
highlights fruitful avenues for future research..

1.
The chart shows the results of a poll asking 181 people if they are aware of digital marketing
campaigns for pharmaceutical products. 81.3% of the respondents said yes, while 18.7% said no.
This suggests that there is a relatively high level of awareness of digital marketing campaigns for
pharmaceutical products among the general public. This could be due to a number of factors,
such as the fact that these campaigns are often targeted to specific patient groups or healthcare
professionals, or that they are always very visible to the general public.
It is possible that awareness of digital marketing campaigns for pharmaceutical products is
higher among certain groups, such as people who are living with chronic conditions or who are
taking multiple medications.
Overall, the chart suggests that It would be interesting to know more about how these campaigns
are being used, what their goals are, and what their impact is on patients and healthcare
professionals.
26
2.
The chart shows the results of a poll asking 179 people how often they interact with digital
marketing content related to pharmaceutical products.
The results of the poll suggest that a significant portion of the population interacts with digital
marketing content related to pharmaceutical products on a regular basis. This is likely due to the
fact that pharmaceutical companies are increasingly using digital channels to reach consumers.
However, it is also worth noting that a significant portion of the population (10%) said they
never interact with this type of content. This suggests that there is still a need for traditional
marketing methods to reach some consumers.
Overall, the chart provides some interesting insights into the ways in which people interact with
digital marketing content related to pharmaceutical products. However, it is important to keep in
mind that the poll was relatively small and may not be representative of the general population.
27
3.
Pie chart shows the results of a poll asking 181 people on a scale of 1 to 5, how effective they
find digital marketing in raising awareness about pharmaceutical products.
10.4% of respondents said 1, which means they find digital marketing to be not at all effective in
raising awareness about pharmaceutical products.

awareness about pharmaceutical products.
23.1% of respondents said 4, which means they find digital marketing to be somewhat effective
in raising awareness about pharmaceutical products.
16.5% of respondents said 5, which means they find digital marketing to be very effective in
raising awareness about pharmaceutical products.
Overall, the chart shows that there is a mixed opinion on how effective digital marketing is in
raising awareness about pharmaceutical products. A plurality of respondents (34.1%) said that it
is neutral, while 10.4%% said it is not at all effective and 15.9% said it is slightly ineffective. On
the other hand, 16.5%% of respondents said that it is somewhat or very effective.
28

that people are interested in reading informative and engaging content about pharmaceutical
products, such as blog posts, articles, and infographics.
Others: 8.8% of respondents selected "Others," indicating that there are other channels that
people find effective for delivering information about pharmaceutical products. These could
include online forums, patient communities, and healthcare professional websites.
Overall, the chart suggests that social media is the most popular channel for delivering
information about pharmaceutical products, followed by email marketing, SEM, and content
marketing. However, it is important to note that a significant portion of respondents also found
other channels to be effective. This suggests that pharmaceutical companies should use a variety
of digital marketing channels to reach their target audiences.

on information obtained from digital marketing content?”. According to the chart, 38.7% of the
180 respondents said yes, 29.8% said no, and 31.5% said maybe.
This suggests that a significant number of people, about a third, have made healthcare-related
decisions based on information from digital marketing content. This could be due to a number of
factors, such as the increasing prevalence of digital marketing in the healthcare industry, the
growing popularity of online health information resources, or the belief that digital marketing
content can be a reliable source of information about healthcare topics.
It is also worth noting that a plurality of respondents (29.8%) said that they have not made a
healthcare-related decision based on information from digital marketing content. This suggests
that there is still a significant portion of the population that is sceptical of or does not trust digital
marketing content as a source of healthcare information.
The 31.5% of respondents who said maybe suggests that they are undecided about whether or not
they have made a healthcare-related decision based on information from digital marketing
content. This could be due to a number of factors, such as difficulty recalling specific instances
where they made such decisions, or a belief that the information they obtained from digital
marketing content may have only played a minor role in their decision-making process.
Overall, the chart suggests that digital marketing content is playing an increasingly important
role in healthcare decision-making, but that there is still a significant portion of the population
that is sceptical of or does not trust this type of content.
