HCP Engagement Optimizer

Focus your resources where they create the most value

Your field force has limited time. Marketing budgets aren’t infinite. Yet you need to reach the right healthcare professionals at the right time with the right message.

A segmentation and targeting model helps you identify which HCPs create the most value for your business. You get data-driven insights that help you allocate resources strategically, whether you’re preparing for a product launch, facing competition, or optimizing performance before loss of exclusivity.

What you get from our segmentation & targeting solution

Your HCPs are grouped into segments based on their adoption potential and current value to your business.

Acquire
High-potential HCPs who aren’t currently prescribing your product. These represent your biggest growth opportunities.

Grow
HCPs with high potential who are already prescribing but have room to increase. You can strengthen these relationships with targeted engagement.

Maintain
Your most valuable HCPs who combine high potential with high loyalty. You need strategies to keep these relationships strong.

Defend
HCPs with lower potential but high current value. You protect your position here while focusing growth efforts elsewhere.

Insights that answer your toughest questions

The analysis reveals patterns in your market that aren’t visible from sales data alone. You see how prescription volume concentrates among certain HCP profiles, which characteristics separate high-potential from low-value targets, and how your current resource allocation compares to where the actual opportunities exist.

In other words, the analysis gives you answers to questions such as:

  • Which HCPs have the highest potential you haven’t tapped yet?
  • Where should you focus your limited field force resources?
  • How can you facilitate more relevant dialogue with each HCP based on their prescriber profile?
  • Which market segments offer the best return on your sales and marketing investments?
  • How do your field activities and campaigns impact prescribing behavior?

Sales receives a prioritized target list showing which HCPs create the most value. Your consultants can combine face-to-face meetings with digital touchpoints based on each segment’s needs, focusing in-person time where it creates the biggest impact.


Marketing gets an ideal foundation for segmented campaigns. You can design different approaches for different HCP profiles, improving response rates and return on investment.


Management gains clear visibility into which customers drive your business. You can make resource allocation decisions based on data rather than gut feeling.

How we build your model

We use sophisticated geographic modelling to connect pharmacy-level sales data to individual clinics. Our model considers road networks, distances, and the number of doctors at each location to accurately distribute sales.

This means you get insights as close to the individual HCP as possible, even in markets where prescriber-level data isn’t available. Every clinic receives a realistic allocation of sales from multiple nearby pharmacies.

Data sources we integrate

We combine data from multiple sources to create a complete picture of each HCP. Sales data alone doesn’t tell you everything. Patient data reveals treatment patterns. Attention data shows which brands HCPs consider. Public health statistics identify potential patient populations. Key opinion leader networks map influence patterns. This multi-dimensional view helps you understand not just what HCPs prescribe today, but why they prescribe it and what could influence their behavior towards adoption of your product.

Weighted scoring that reflects your strategy

We work with you to determine how different factors should influence the model. You might weigh current sales and patient numbers heavily for a mature product or emphasize market potential and demographics for a launch. The weighting system ensures the segments align with your commercial objectives.

A dynamic solution that evolves with your market

Markets don’t stand still. Your segmentation model shouldn’t either.

We can monitor changes monthly, helping you see how your field activities and campaigns impact prescribing behavior. You track progress against your objectives and adjust your approach based on what’s working.

When you follow the segmentation insights and plan your activities accordingly, you typically see growth rates of up to 15 per cent in both product turnover and market share.

When to prioritize segmentation


The right segmentation model helps you make better decisions at any stage. But these situations create the most urgent need to understand which HCPs deserve your focused attention.
