A REVIEW OF MARKETING
STRATEGIES WORK BY
DIFFERENT PHARMACEUTICAL
COMPANIES
1.INTRODUCTION:
Background
A brief history of Indian pharmaceuticalsectorand the presentsituation
The pharmaceutical industry is the world’s largest industry due to worldwide revenues of
approximately US$2.8 trillion. Pharma industry has seeb major changes in the recent
years that place new demands on payers, providers and manufacturers. Customers now
demand the same choice and convenience from pharma industry that they find in other
segment.
Indian Pharmaceutical Industry is poised for high consistent growth over the next few
years, driven by a multitude of factors. Top Indian Companies like Ranbaxy, DRL
CIPLA and Dabur have already established their presence.
The pharmaceutical industry is a knowledge driven industry and is heavily dependent on
Research and Development for new products and growth. However, basic research
(discovering new molecules) is a time consuming and expensive process and is thus,
dominated by large global multinationals.
Indian companies have only recently entered the area. The Indian pharmaceutical
industry came into existence in 1901, when Bengal Chemical & Pharmaceutical
Company started its maiden operation in Calcutta. The next few decades saw the
pharmaceutical industry moving through several phases, largely in accordance with
government policies. Commencing with repackaging and preparation of formulations
from imported bulk drugs, the Indian industry has moved on to become a net foreign
exchange earner, and has been able to underline its presence in the global pharmaceutical
arena as one of the top 35 drug producers worldwide. Currently, there are more than
2,400 registered pharmaceutical producers in India. There are 24,000 licensed
pharmaceutical companies. Of the 465 bulk drugs used in India, approximately 425 are
manufactured here. India has more drug-manufacturing facilities that have been approved
by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration than any country other than the US. Indian
generics companies supply 84% of the AIDS drugs that Doctors without Borders uses to
treat 60,000 patients in more than 30 countries . However total pharmaceutical market is
as follows:
2.Marketing problem facing the organization
While many pharmaceutical companies have successfully deployed a plethora of
strategies to target the various customer types, recent business and customer trends are
creating new challenges and opportunities for increasing profitability. In the
pharmaceutical and healthcare industries, a complex web of decision-makers determines
the nature of the transaction (prescription) for which direct customer of pharma industry
(doctor) is responsible . Essentially, the end-user (patient) consumes a product and pays
the cost .
Use of medical representatives for marketing products to physicians and to exert some
influence over others in the hierarchy of decision makers has been a time-tested tradition.
Typically, sales force expense comprises an estimated 15 percent to 20 percent of annual
product revenues, the largest line item on the balance sheet. Despite this other expense,
the industry is still plagued with some very serious strategic and operational level issues.
3.PharmaceuticalCompany Business Strategies
What’s the secret behind these successes? For one, the company operates in niche
formulations (chronic) segments such as psychiatry, cardiovascular, gastroentology and
neurology. While most of the top Indian companies have focused on antibiotics and anti–
infectives (acute), Cipla Pharma focused on therapeutic areas such as depression,
hypertension and cancer. The company has introduced the entire range of products and
has gained leadership position in each of these areas. Being a specialty company insulates
Cipla Pharma from the industry growth. The first quarter results for FY02 explain this to
some extent. While the industry was affected to a large extent by a slowdown in the
domestic formulations market, Cipla Pharma logged a growth of 26% in revenues. Over
the years Cipla has also used the strategy of acquisitions and mergers to grow quickly. It
acquired Knoll Pharma’s bulk drug facility, Gujarat Lyka Organics, 51.5% in M. J.
Pharma, merged TamilNadu Dadha Pharma & Milmet Labs and acquired Natco’s brands.
Post Merger with TamilNadu Dadha Pharma the company gained presence in gynecology
and oncology segments.
One of the constants of pharmaceutical company strategy over the past decade has
beenincreasing scale. Only by growing larger are companies able to afford the
considerable costs of drug development and distribution.
Within this broad approach at least two business models are discernable:
(i) Super Core Model involving the search for, and distribution of a small number of
drugs from Chronic Threapy Area that achieve substantial global sales. The success of
this model depends on achieving large returns from a small number of drugs in order to
pay for the high cost of the drug discovery and development process for a large number
of patients. Total revenues are highly dependant on sales from a small number of drugs.
(ii) Core Model in which a larger number of drugs from Acute Threapy Area are
marketed to big diversified markets. The advantage of this model is that its success is not
dependant on sales of a small number of drugs.
Symptoms of the presentsituation
2.1 From organizational perspective the most prominent issues reelted to te present situation are
enlisted below:
a) .Increased competition and shortened window of opportunity.
b). Low level of customer knowledge (Doctors, Retailers, Wholesalers).
c). Poor customer acquisition, development and retention strategies
.
d). Varying customer perception.
e). The number and the quality of medical representatives
n). Manual and cumbersome administrative systems and processes designed
which don't facilitate optimal efficiency levels in sales teams
And many more…………
1.20.1 Goals of this research
Basedon the problemdiscussionourresearchobjectiveswill be formulatedasfollows:
 To identify factors affecting competitiveness of pharmaceutical products in India’s
pharmaceutical industry.
 To investigate the customer base of India’s pharmaceutical business, and find out effective
customer acquisition, development and retention strategies.
 To provide both management and government as decision-makers, alternative strategies to
improve the competitiveness of Enterprises in the future pharmaceutical products business.

A review of marketing[www.writekraft.com]

  • 1. A REVIEW OF MARKETING STRATEGIES WORK BY DIFFERENT PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES 1.INTRODUCTION: Background A brief history of Indian pharmaceuticalsectorand the presentsituation The pharmaceutical industry is the world’s largest industry due to worldwide revenues of approximately US$2.8 trillion. Pharma industry has seeb major changes in the recent years that place new demands on payers, providers and manufacturers. Customers now demand the same choice and convenience from pharma industry that they find in other segment. Indian Pharmaceutical Industry is poised for high consistent growth over the next few years, driven by a multitude of factors. Top Indian Companies like Ranbaxy, DRL CIPLA and Dabur have already established their presence. The pharmaceutical industry is a knowledge driven industry and is heavily dependent on Research and Development for new products and growth. However, basic research (discovering new molecules) is a time consuming and expensive process and is thus, dominated by large global multinationals. Indian companies have only recently entered the area. The Indian pharmaceutical industry came into existence in 1901, when Bengal Chemical & Pharmaceutical Company started its maiden operation in Calcutta. The next few decades saw the pharmaceutical industry moving through several phases, largely in accordance with government policies. Commencing with repackaging and preparation of formulations from imported bulk drugs, the Indian industry has moved on to become a net foreign exchange earner, and has been able to underline its presence in the global pharmaceutical arena as one of the top 35 drug producers worldwide. Currently, there are more than 2,400 registered pharmaceutical producers in India. There are 24,000 licensed pharmaceutical companies. Of the 465 bulk drugs used in India, approximately 425 are manufactured here. India has more drug-manufacturing facilities that have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration than any country other than the US. Indian generics companies supply 84% of the AIDS drugs that Doctors without Borders uses to treat 60,000 patients in more than 30 countries . However total pharmaceutical market is as follows: 2.Marketing problem facing the organization While many pharmaceutical companies have successfully deployed a plethora of strategies to target the various customer types, recent business and customer trends are creating new challenges and opportunities for increasing profitability. In the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries, a complex web of decision-makers determines the nature of the transaction (prescription) for which direct customer of pharma industry (doctor) is responsible . Essentially, the end-user (patient) consumes a product and pays
  • 2. the cost . Use of medical representatives for marketing products to physicians and to exert some influence over others in the hierarchy of decision makers has been a time-tested tradition. Typically, sales force expense comprises an estimated 15 percent to 20 percent of annual product revenues, the largest line item on the balance sheet. Despite this other expense, the industry is still plagued with some very serious strategic and operational level issues. 3.PharmaceuticalCompany Business Strategies What’s the secret behind these successes? For one, the company operates in niche formulations (chronic) segments such as psychiatry, cardiovascular, gastroentology and neurology. While most of the top Indian companies have focused on antibiotics and anti– infectives (acute), Cipla Pharma focused on therapeutic areas such as depression, hypertension and cancer. The company has introduced the entire range of products and has gained leadership position in each of these areas. Being a specialty company insulates Cipla Pharma from the industry growth. The first quarter results for FY02 explain this to some extent. While the industry was affected to a large extent by a slowdown in the domestic formulations market, Cipla Pharma logged a growth of 26% in revenues. Over the years Cipla has also used the strategy of acquisitions and mergers to grow quickly. It acquired Knoll Pharma’s bulk drug facility, Gujarat Lyka Organics, 51.5% in M. J. Pharma, merged TamilNadu Dadha Pharma & Milmet Labs and acquired Natco’s brands. Post Merger with TamilNadu Dadha Pharma the company gained presence in gynecology and oncology segments. One of the constants of pharmaceutical company strategy over the past decade has beenincreasing scale. Only by growing larger are companies able to afford the considerable costs of drug development and distribution. Within this broad approach at least two business models are discernable: (i) Super Core Model involving the search for, and distribution of a small number of drugs from Chronic Threapy Area that achieve substantial global sales. The success of this model depends on achieving large returns from a small number of drugs in order to pay for the high cost of the drug discovery and development process for a large number of patients. Total revenues are highly dependant on sales from a small number of drugs. (ii) Core Model in which a larger number of drugs from Acute Threapy Area are marketed to big diversified markets. The advantage of this model is that its success is not dependant on sales of a small number of drugs. Symptoms of the presentsituation 2.1 From organizational perspective the most prominent issues reelted to te present situation are enlisted below: a) .Increased competition and shortened window of opportunity. b). Low level of customer knowledge (Doctors, Retailers, Wholesalers). c). Poor customer acquisition, development and retention strategies . d). Varying customer perception. e). The number and the quality of medical representatives n). Manual and cumbersome administrative systems and processes designed
