Delivers Just-in-Time Insights

While the use of non-personal channels is on the rise, the sales channel remains the strongest lever for influencing customer behavior. Ultimately, both personal and non­personal approaches are critical to improving brand ­performance; in fact, all marketing and sales efforts should be customer-focused and aligned from strategy through ­execution.

IMS Health’s Mobile Sales is the first ­mobile sales and marketing effectiveness solution that allows life-sciences companies to optimize and execute brand ­strategies at the local level. The solution uses IMS Health’s patent-pending Next Best Customer methodology, which helps prioritize customers based on brand strategy, local dynamics and multiple data sources, including targeted prescriber behavior, payer influence, territory sales and proximity.

Mobile Sales promotes a strategic analytics-first approach to customer engagement and embeds a new level of ­strategically aligned territory analytics into existing CRM and sales force automation systems. This approach delivers just-in-time locally relevant insights directly to field sales reps’ tablets. Additionally, voice-command technology delivers automated alerts about customer trends, payer opportunities and gaps in execution for each specific territory, eliminating the need for sales teams to translate national strategy, review disparate data or run queries or reports.
