Key Considerations – Survey Data

• Survey response collection through direct response & VRU channels

– To be mirrored by online Allegra Extras registration

– Customer surveys to be consistent on all promotional materials

• Information collected:– Basic demographic profile

– Geographic information

– Rx or OTC user -- or both

– Name of medications used

– Symptom severity

– Number of days suffering and medicating

– Season and specific months of suffering

– Types of symptoms suffered

– Allergen most triggering symptoms

– Type/dose of Allegra brand purchased (through redeemers)

– (Online only) How prescription of Allegra obtained

• Doctor appointment

• Call-in request to doctor without visit

Key Considerations – Data Audit

• 20% of the Harte-Hanks database names (primarily users) responded to a usage question:– 120+ days medicate 45.3%

– 61-120 days medicate 21.2%

– 0-60 days medicate 33.5%

• Usage data mirrors the Prizm data– Categories can be mapped to new questionnaire usage questions

– Average days medicate = 90+days or 4 Rx per year

• Usage patterns for 80% of database unknown

• Further analysis and modeling required by end of 2001 to leverage and assign value to names for Spring Drive

Key Considerations – Opt-in

• Customer opt-in is no longer required to continue

communication with handraisers or users– Opportunity to leverage legacy names, reduce Acquisition

spending

– Retain all MCO, MDUS and Abelson-Taylor rebaters

– Enriched data analysis

– Enhance opportunity to convert, conquest and grow usage

Key Considerations – Digital

• Additional goals for 2001 can be established

– Ease of registration must be improved and tracked

– Encourage repeat visit

• Phase II recently approved by CRC– DDMAC approval of website creative may still be a problem

– Leverage approved language and creative to avoid pre-

clearance

Lead Generation Approach By Tactic

Tactic Spring FallDRPrint Rollout of Allegra Extras program – Ad engages allergy

sufferers with high-energy scenes and hooks them with the

juxtaposition headline communicating that Allegra offers

something extra. The focus of the ad is the Extras program

and the free introductory offer- stadium cushion. The ad

positions the program as an educational/supportive effort to

help sufferers manage their seasonal allergies. The

newsletter is prominently positioned and the launch issue is

promoted.

Test variations of the ad will be developed to target

unsatisfied sufferers, congestion sufferers, heavy sufferers

and Clarinex prospects.

An A/B split will be tested to determine if the free premium

increases enrollment

The creative leverages the General Advertising concept and

builds on the graphic elements of the Fall 2001 test. All ads

include a BRC and unique 800 number

The Spring creative execution will be maintained,

but refreshed and the Allegra Extras Program will

continue to be the focus. To enhance the acquisition

effort the “Real Living Sweeps” overlay will be added

to encourage enrollment in the Extras program.

Entry into the sweepstakes will not require a proof of

purchase, strictly survey information. Responders

enter win a free season ticket to PGA events, Palm

Pilot, “Round of Golf with Steve Elkington” an allergy

free gardening consultation from BHG

or free weekend car rental.

DRTV National cable DRTV test campaign leveraging the General

Advertising spot to create a reedited :60 DRTV version

featuring the Allegra Extras program. The focus of the spot

is the Extras program, the free introductory offer - stadium

cushion and the benefits of membership. The spot positions

the program as an educational/support effort to help

sufferers manage their seasonal allergies. The approach

and communication strategy mirrors the spirit of the General

Spot – Allegra helps me get back my vigor for everyday life.

Based on the results of the Spring DRTV Campaign

the spot will be reedited to feature the new general

advertising creative (if a new spot is created) and the

chance to enter the “Real Living Sweepstakes” to

encourage enrollment in the program.

Retention Approach By Tactic

Tactic Spring FallOn-going Emails Extras registration will ask traditional offline survey

questions, but will also offer members opportunity to

indicate what kinds of online emails they are most

interested in receiving – updates about new site content,

updates about particular lifestyle activities in Beyond

Seasonal Allergies, pollen alerts, etc.

Extras registration within itself will permit outbounding of

various communications, through response to “Yes, I

would like to receive news, tips and other valuable

information from Aventis Pharmaceuticals.” However,

specifically asking members about their interest in

receiving different kinds of site updates, allows ability to

determine potential vehicles/themes for newsletters and

other messaging.

In July, will evaluate responses to registration

questions and page view trends, and use

information to drive fall outbound emails – both to

develop most relevant content for newsletters, but

also to provide input that may assist in future

acquisition messaging.

Web site Updates 2002 updates will include updates to Steve/Erik’s

schedules & any additional Phase III content needing

refreshing

In July, will evaluate site traffic and determine if

additional content practical for Beyond Seasonal

Allergies (such as personal finance) and measure

traffic on Ask the Expert (National Jewish) tools

Retention Approach By Tactic

Tactic Spring FallPartnerships Partners will supply content/tools for Allegra.com, and Allegra

will also advertise/sponsor content on partner sites. Current

partners include:

National Jewish, who will supply the allergy screener/ability to

email a doctor directly with allergy questions (part of Phase II,

end of this year).

Weather.com will supply national parks information for hiking

(to support Erik W content) and can supply golf course locator

if not supplied by PGA. Weather.com may also supply travel

content.

Better Homes & Gardens will supply gardening content &

general media buy, jump pages and sponsorship of women’s

health section will be leveraged to showcase Real Living

sweepstakes. BHG may also supply travel content

Yahoo will provide respiratory exclusivity on their Allergy

Center, which will contain Allegra branding. Links to

Allegra.com from the Allergy Center and outbound emails to

Yahoo consumers will also drive traffic to the Allegra site.

The PGA, as a promotional partner, will also provide online

resources by lending credibility to the golfing section (usage

of official logo) and potentially use of their golf course locator.

Healthology may provide webcasts on up to 1,500 different

sites – by providing grants to Healthology, their physicians will

develop content, which will be produced and placed

throughout wide site network. All webcasts will include link to

Allegra.com, with messaging appropriate to drive traffic and

registrants.

As the sweepstakes enfolds, all partnerships can

be leveraged for prizes.

As site traffic is evaluated, can determine if

additional existing promotional partners can and

should be leveraged online.

Customer Knowledge Tool Use of Tool

What criteria do we use to gauge a customer's

value? DWW Market Profile

Explores behavioral and demographic differences as

captured in the database

Gender? Self-reported usage, symptoms? Contact

history?

Overlay data adds to picture -- determine if there is

another way to classify or identify people

Will a user prove to be more valuable over time?

Where are Allegra sales coming from? Switchers?

NRx? Refills? What is refill frequency and

seasonality

NDC/IMS -- transactional

data at the pharmacy level

Information about overall usage patterns to delineate

current customer value/potential customer value. Provides

Rx transaction data, market share, sales volume, source

of Rx, cash paid status, who wrote the prescription.

Depending on reports purchased, may contain

compliance and persistency data

When does switching occur? When are users most

vulnerable and apt to switch? What are their usage

patterns over time? Is there a difference between

EXTRAS members and non-members? Between

redeemer and non-redeemer behavior User Longitudinal Tracking

New, ongoing primary research. Tracks the consumer

experience, usage behavior and satisfaction with the

product through their entire lifecycle. Includes EXTRAS

members as well as users in the general environment

Describe, better understand customer behavior in the general environment

EXTRAS Program Design Needs Tool Use of Tool

Who is most likely to consider Allegra and/or the

EXTRAS program?

Clear Perspectives

Segmentation Study

(Prospects)

Defines and describes sufferers/medicators in the general

market. Understand their needs and attitudes. Use this to

assist with relevant vocabulary/messaging

How can this program be improved? Would I repeat

this tactic? DWW Program Evaluation Assesses the results and value of the program

When and how long does it take to convert a

prospect to user? What drives that conversion?

Doctor? Incentive?

DWW User Conversion

Study

Assesses the process from hand-raising in the EXTRAS

program to Allegra trial

When does switching occur? When are users most

vulnerable and apt to switch? What are their usage

patterns over time? What are the most relevant

messages? Which EXTRAS offer keeps the user

more engaged in the program?

User Longitudinal Tracking

(can be integrated into

Habits and Practices

Study)

Tracks the consumer experience, usage behavior and

satisfaction with the product through the usage lifecycle --

from the point of product trial going forward

How do Allegra users compare to the URA target

market -- are they more desirable and a target for

competitive conquesting? Which segments are

responsive to which executions? How does EXTRAS

participation vary by segment? How does

profitability? Which segment is most vulnerable? DWW Segmentation Model

Breaks database into clusters for meaningful EXTRAS

treatment. Benefits are allocated, database routines are

programmed as result.

Allegra Information Needs

How do we use knowledge of the consumer to drive program design?

costs.

Revenue equation includes conversion rate (conversion

study), refill rates (sales data), dollars per script
