It's more important than ever before to stay on the leading edge of innovative healthcare communication tactics. Social media marketing for medical communications has been the subject of both too much hype, and too much fear. This workshop is designed for pharmaceutical marketing and communication professionals who want to know the right and the wrong ways to monitor and participate in the Health 2.0 movement.
Agenda
This boot-camp is the fastest, least expensive way to gain understanding and insights into the social media, Health 2.0 world and its impact on life science marketing. Listed below are just some of the topics covered in this seminar:
- How the "we" generation demands authenticity, connections and trust.
- What is social media? (definitions and terms)
- What are the most popular social media sites and platforms? (e.g., Twitter, Facebook, Blogs, YouTube, SecondLife, Wikipedia, Flickr)
- What are the most popular Health 2.0 sites? (e.g., PatientsLikeMe, CureTogether, DailyStrength, Diabetes Mine, ICYou)
- WHO are the influencers in the social web related to your brand?
- WHAT are they saying about your brand?
- What tools can be used to monitor and quantify social media activity?
Special “deep-dive” topics include:
- Adverse event reporting and social monitoring: Critical issue or paper tiger?
- FDA Social Media Hearings: Possible Regulations in the Coming Year.
- Broadcast strategy: A safe first step or bad first impression?
