The pharma industry is, at this time, evolving quickly. Usual means for reaching healthcare professionals (HCPs) such as doctors, chemists, also stockists are becoming less effective within 2025. Cold visits do not guarantee attention anymore. Neither with long product folders nor with overloaded emails does it guarantee it either.
