2000's
At the turn of the century, pharma marketers leveraged printed medical journals to embed creative advertisements, communicating key messages via imagery, headlines and claims.
2010's
Then came the transition to digital, where HCPs began to shift preferences on how they liked to receive and engage with medical content. Pharma followed suit and repurposed their creative to suit the new online formats.

Now we’re in the “new normal”, and whilst the majority of HCPs still view medical journals as the most trusted source for medical education, increasing numbers now choose mobile over desktop as their preferred format.

Pharma brands have also pivoted in strategy – shifting away from creative ads in favour of providing information, education and support.

To this, a new type of campaign has evolved….
