Why was Pharmacist Partners Created?
In the arena of contract sales organizations, the age of the cookie cutter, mass-market pharmaceutical blockbuster is over. Along with it went the old sales model of deploying massive numbers of non-clinical sales personnel to detail physicians and other prescribers to achieve a greater share-of-voice in the market.
Today, most new products are in niche areas such as vaccines, oncology, and biologicals. These new products cater to specific markets, and require clinicians to have a greater level of knowledge on their benefits and risks. Pharmacist Partners was developed to address the need for a highly skilled, “Clinical Knowledge Organization” to provide the level of clinical experience and knowledge that only our staff of pharmacist partners can offer.
Pharmacist Partners® is The Clinical Knowledge Organization™ with offices in Florida and New York.
