Risk-First DTC: A Tactic to Overcome Resistance

Posted: September 18, 2007

First there was Risk-Free DTC. Now there is Risk-First DTC!

It's interesting to note that whenever FDA slaps a "black box" warning on a drug label, that's usually the end of direct-to-consumer communication (aka, advertising). The drug company goes dark on the subject of its drug as far as the public is concerned.

But a new tactic, called "Risk-First DTC" may break the "If Black Box, No DTC" rule.

For more on this, see today's post to Pharma Marketing Blog.

Volume Two: DTC in the New Era

DTC Vol 2 Supplement Cover
DTC advertising is set for major changes in light of public criticism, but also in reaction to the changing reality of the marketplace where there is less need for a one size fits all solution. DTC must evolve and marketers must pay more attention to measuring and improving its effectiveness. Otherwise, billions of dollars will continue to be wasted. This volume is devoted to DTC best practices with a focus on techniques for improving DTC efficacy and return on investment, which is generally considered to be declining.
