Women’s Health and Beauty Marketing

We know health sites are an ideal place to reach women about all sorts of topics. From healthy eating and fitness to wellness and beauty products, the women’s demographic congregates on wellness sites. Health sites in particular have proven to be an ideal marketing channel for several fundamental reasons. As opposed to news sites, political sites, celebrity sites, social media sites etcetera, Health sites are quiet places for women to be self-reflective and to make deeply personal choices. In addition, most marketers understand that women make up 85% of household purchase decisions and are well aware of women’s formidable influence on all things commerce.

Free sample marketing to physicians

Whether your offer is RX or OTC, offering free samples to physicians and other HCPs is a great strategy.

Offering free product samples is a tried-and-true strategy which has been practiced for years but here’s some updated tactics to think about when orchestrating a digital marketing campaign targeting physicians.
