CMI, a full-service marketing research company, has been chosen for the second consecutive year to present a session at The Fourth Annual Meeting of the PMRG Institute in Boston, MA on Oct. 24-26, 2010. The theme for this year’s conference is “Navigating Healthcare’s Shifting Currents: Essential Techniques for the Healthcare Marketing Researcher.”
Where: The Westin Boston Waterfront in Boston, MA.
When: Tuesday, October 26, 2010.
What: CMI’s Laura Winn Johnson will present “A 360 Degree View of Adherence: Using Ethnography to Identify New Opportunities for Pharmaceutical Brands.”
The path to greater brand resonance requires marketers to develop a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of their consumer’s “lens on life.” To develop innovative solutions for compliance and adherence, marketers must make a clear connection between their product and all of the ways a particular condition or disease affects how users think about themselves and their experiences. This comprehensive 360-degree view enables more innovative solutions for the brand by providing answers to critical questions, using real examples from a wide range of therapeutic categories and a case study based on ethnographic research with pharmaceutical companies.
Johnson’s presentation outlines the key benefits of a broad observational framework for the pharmaceutical industry with compelling applications across therapeutic categories, and reviews how four key considerations can impact the design of any ethnographic study in your category:
* How self-observation can help respondents be ethnographer’s “eyes and ears.”
* How longitudinal observation can deliver a more authentic view of someone’s adherence challenges.
* How mixing multiple methods can leverage the strengths of each individual method.
* How new technology can provide a more robust 360-degree view.
