Promotional Impact Assessment & Mix Optimisation
A pharma brand team was investing heavily across personal and non-personal promotional channels but lacked visibility into which activities were actually driving prescription behaviour. Budget allocation decisions were being made on share-of-voice assumptions rather than measured response.
We designed and executed a promotional response model using sales data, call activity, digital engagement metrics, and market research. The model quantified the marginal contribution of each channel and identified several high-investment, low-response activities that were consuming budget without measurable impact.
Reallocating promotional spend based on model outputs delivered improved brand sales performance with a lower total promotional budget — and gave the brand team a defensible, evidence-based framework for annual planning conversations with leadership.
