The Digital Reality Most pharmacy businesses do not have a digital strategy. Most businesses do not use a digital strategy. Most businesses do not know how to create a digital strategy. A strategy is relatively easy to decide upon and put into place. “Having a simple strategy, and utilising it, will put you ahead of most pharmacists, including your competitors”
Strategy Questions What are we “about”? __________________ What do we do best? ___________________ What makes it work? ___________________ What VALUE are you going to Deliver – Today? “Tomorrow”? Next Year? ________________ Email [email protected]
Next Steps “Distill” Your core concepts from answers Create your three core “themes” or Domains of Your brand value Your community value Your product & content value

Implementing Your Strategy People Understand your audience WIIFM Objectives What are you trying to achieve? Why? Create relevance to your audience Value What value are you ‘exchanging’ What themes are you using to deliver your value? Deliver your value through your content

What Are YOU Going To “TALK” About?
WHO Are You Talking to?
What is Content? Not just a “blog” Ebooks, checklists, webinars, videos, web text, images, infographics, stories, books, course, training… Educating Your Audience Creating awareness of ‘you’ (Profile) Informing about their “environment” Focused on YOUR keywords
Your CONTENT Drives Your Audience What is YOUR Original Content? Not all sales Your Business Value WIIFM? “What’s In It For Me” Where is your Digital Leadership? Your Strategy?
What About Keywords? Yes, research! https://www.google.com.au/trends/ https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner http://www.semrush.com/ More so, they distill out as PART of your VALUE statements, Your digital strategy, and your specific content!
How To Identify YOUR Target Persona Start by describing the ideal customer who might benefit most from the content you create: WHO is the persona? WHAT traits characterize her? WHAT roles does she play? WHAT does her typical day look like? WHERE is there a gap in her needs/wants (beyond our products/services)? WHEN does she need to close this gap (i.e., where is she in the purchase funnel)? WHY would she care about us, as a company (aside from our product)?
Identify Your Persona TARGET PERSONA: ________________________________________ Job title/Role: ____________________________________________ Typical challenge: _________________________________________ Needs Gap: ______________________________________________ Funnel position: __________________________________________ What she cares about: _____________________________________ Place your persona’s picture here and give her a name, to help your content team keep her top-of-mind.
How to Grow you Audience With Content?
