Background<\/b><\/p>\n

\"ConnectingThis figure is adapted from Figures 1 and 2 in the report, which you can find here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The fast-moving pace of social media, and the powerful amplifying effect that it can have on perceptions about a brand, means that even for the bravest of businesses it can be a daunting space. While there is still some evidence of “social anxiety” across the global pharma industry, many organizations are getting involved in the online conversation.<\/p>\n

Ogilvy Healthworld carried out its second annual Pharma Social Media Audit in 2014 to analyze the corporate social media activity of 14 pharma companies. We monitored 10 of the most popular social networks to evaluate how each company was performing across six key categories: <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Social presence<\/b>: How many social networks was the company on?<\/li>\n
  2. Activity<\/b>: Was the content kept fresh with regular updates?<\/li>\n
  3. Engagement<\/b>: Were the companies engaging their users and generating interest?<\/li>\n
  4. Social network<\/b>: How simple and intuitive was the connection between social networks?<\/li>\n
  5. Virality<\/b>: Was the content spread around the social sphere?<\/li>\n
  6. Community Size<\/b>: How big was the community?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Questions\/Topics of Discussion<\/b> <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Background to the report – the pharma social media landscape<\/li>\n
    2. What was analyzed – the categories and how they are defined<\/li>\n
    3. What was learned – three distinct groups, key insights<\/li>\n
    4. Suggestions on how pharma can improve social media engagement<\/li>\n
    5. What’s next this year?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
