Understanding customer or consumer behavior is pivotal to creating a winning marketing strategy for your brand portfolio. With more than 100 healthcare brands fighting for top of mind recall from the same set of doctors, it is pertinent to understand what the doctor really wants, what his/her pain-points are and why he is prescribing your brand or a competitor brand.

Let’s deep dive into how healthcare marketers gather market and competitor intel.

Historically, the way market intelligence was gathered had limitations (ref: image 1.1). However, new-age approaches focus on maximizing the number of touchpoints.

How to leverage Mindset Analysis for better brand positioning?

Say for example, you want to launch a new brand/ product or revamp an existing brand. You could have specific or multi-faceted goals viz. –

  • What appeals to my target doctors?
  • What influences their prescription behavior?
  • Is there a demand that my new product fulfills?
  • What are doctors’ opinions on the usefulness of a specific drug composition?
  • Do I need to revamp my product / drug composition?
  • How is my brand perceived against competitors?

With short and simple online polls, Docplexus not only helps you interpret qualitative and quantitative data but also helps you in crafting surveys that are designed to get you maximum output (engagement).

Mindset analysis can further help you gauge the change in HCP perceptions and sentiments –

Say you hosted a KOL webinar advocating a recent clinical trial – You would want to measure the impact of this webinar or simply get HCP feedback, that’s where pre-and-post mindset analysis serves as the perfect solution. If you further want to understand if doctors are liking your content, way of delivery, format chosen, speakers or KOL chosen, topic chosen – you can quickly get a sentiment analysis done to see what is Yay and what is Nay!

The best part – You can create customizations like defining the mix of TAs (therapeutic areas) for the survey, their locations, career stage, etc.

Docplexus Mindset Analysis enables the healthcare companies with evidence-led research. So, you can improvise offerings to provide scientific information that is relevant, engaging, and adds true value to doctors’ practice.
