Investment in Social Media Will Become a Necessity,
Not a Luxury
2014 will be the year social media marketing moves from
‘should have’ to ‘must have’
Measureable benefits such as lead generation, referral
traffic, and revenue will increase in 2014
And for Pharmacy?
Requires a focus on the changing pharmacy
environment
Health reforms, drug pricing, and downward
pressure on margins from external sources
Result (and may force) new paradigms and niches of
pharmacy practice
When new initiatives are undertaken current and
potential customers need to be aware
This requires customer-facing advertisement

Tips/ Tricks of SEO
1. Korhan, Jeff. John Wiley & Sons, Inc., Hoboken, NJ. 2013. Built-In Social: Essential Social Marketing Practice for Every Small Business.
Facebook is important but not enough
For the most part what happens on Facebook stays on
“…becoming proficient with search doesn’t need to
be complicated, it just requires you understand a
practice of learning what your customers find most
useful, creating it for them, and helping them locate it
using the social networks.”
BLOG
Self-published website where you can write about…
Very important for current SEO algorithms
When people share your blog with others they do so
by sharing a link
Web has thousands of links from one site to the next
This process is called backlinking or inbound linking
The more links your blog has the better
Blogging Rules of Thumb
1. Create valuable and relevant content
2. Do not advertise in every post
3. Use your own voice to make it personal
4. Allow tools to share your work via social media
5. Write for the audience reading your article
6. Remain cognizant of HIPAA and
professionalism
Blog as Hub

Challenges for Independent Retail Pharmacy

using social media
Ensure team understands rules of social media and your
marketing goals

Do not let social media marketing become an obligation
