Digital Debate: What happens when multichannel communications meet behavioural science?

How can we create smarter, more effective communications for HCPs and patients?  What can be done to challenge the status quo, apply a different mindset to communications, and deliver the best possible patient outcomes?

In this webinar, we discussed how multichannel strategy and behavioral science are natural partners in creating smarter, more meaningful, and more effective communications.  The premise is simple: if a deeper understanding of human behavior is applied, we can more accurately determine where to focus communications for the best effect, design the most appropriate multichannel strategy and content, and put the right metrics in place to measure success.

Key topics the expert panel covered include:

• How a behavioral mindset unveils new insights that provide clear direction for communication strategies
• Utilizing a synergistic approach to multichannel strategy and behavioral science to challenge the status quo in communications
• The practical application of this approach, and its impact on channel selection, content strategy, and metrics.

The live webinar will take place on Wednesday 22 November 15.00 GMT/ 16.00 CET/ 10.00 EST. To view on demand, please click here or on the button above/below.
