Key Challenges
Improve Detailing Time for Focus Brands
In order to make meaningful interactions and provide adequate product information, reps needed to increase the detailing time with Health Care Professionals (HCPs).
Increase Prescriber Base
The low interaction rate was resulting in falling prescriber base for the MRs.
Increase Prescription Generation
Improving detailing time and prescriber base for focus brands would lead to an increase in prescription generation and sales revenue.
The Medical Reps (MRs) at the Pharmaceutical giant needed to improve their detailing time and prescriber base for focus brands, which would lead to an increase in prescription generation and sales revenue. Further, the reps needed to sell the desired product mix, which would increase the demand of the Focus brands. The management wanted to improve the engagement of MRs with HCPs, by keeping their Reps more Engaged, Motivated and Productive.
Nudge Coach Deployment
The Pharma company used worxogo Nudge Coach to approach their problems. Based on the Nobel prize-winning concept of Nudges, the coach nudges each representative to cover large territories by helping them build productive behaviors.
worxogo Nudge Coach understands each reps’ motivations and nudges them daily on their KPIs. These small yet deeply impactful nudges helped reps make meaningful and informed interactions with the ideal number of HCPs.
worxogo Nudge Coach was integrated with the company’s existing CRM. Daily personalized nudges helped reps increase their visits & improve upon their detailing time. Instant recognition and rewards, through badges and points, incentivized them to achieve a higher prescription base and improve sales for the focus brands.
The managers could track individual MRs’ performance, quickly identify reps not doing well and intervene at the right point. By helping the managers focus on what’s really important for each MR, Nudge Coach acted like a productivity wingman, resulting in higher revenues for the company.
