AmerisourceBergen provides pharmaceutical products, value-driving services, and business solutions that improve access to care.
The Challenge
We had to build trust with and convey AmerisourceBergen’s value to independent community-pharmacy clients and prospective clients. Many of these small pharmacies were struggling to keep up with industry trends and retain their own clients in a competitive marketplace, and they needed to differentiate themselves through customer service and relationships.
Our Solution
We recognized that AmerisourceBergen had the resources to help these small, community-owned pharmacies not only from a distribution standpoint but also through personalized business coaching. So, we created a content program targeted to Good Neighbor Pharmacy, AmerisourceBergen’s network of more than 4,600 independent community pharmacies. These blogs and infographics were anchored by business tips from experts at AmerisourceBergen, and the result was a network of content that provided applicable tips to help them build their digital presence, develop strong marketing tactics, improve patient adherence, and increase revenue.
