The target audience of the pharma companies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Determining the target audience of the pharma segment takes place during the preparation of the campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, BYYD mobile platform managers study the advertiser’s data properly. Afterwards, they choose the right targeting for the mobile campaign. And finally launch the campaign to the selected relevant audience of users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How we segment the audience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
To find a small audience segment, we use unique targeting methods. They\u2019re strictly customized and depend on the wishes of the brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We’ll explain by case studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Relevant interests<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
A frequent request from the pharmaceutical companies is to find mobile users with a specific disease. For example, to find people with seasonal allergies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What are we doing about it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
To begin with, we create direct categories of interest. In this case, users with seasonal allergies we search in the «Allergies»<\/strong> theme. Then build related topics to help focus the audience segment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, the allergy drug «Delorsin» was targeted at the direct interest «Allergy»<\/strong>. And then on related topics \u2013 healthy eating, vitamin supplements, medicinal herbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
\n![\"allergies](\"https:\/\/www.byyd.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/713_1-9-1.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nThe result of Brand Lift research<\/strong> showed: the presence of Delorsin brand after the mobile campaign increased by 74.38%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Geo<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
This targeting is key while setting up ads. Often it\u2019s prescribed in advance, but sometimes formed in the process of setting up the campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Besides, BYYD has super-geo targeting<\/strong>. It’s useful if the content is broadcast to a small geographic range. Super-geo helps to draw attention to an event, announce a store opening, or increase brand awareness.<\/p>\n\n\n
\n![\"super](\"https:\/\/www.byyd.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/713_1-12.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nFor example, pharmacies can target nearby apartment complexes. And women’s health products \u2013 maternity hospitals and women’s clinics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By the way, in this case we applied a super geo setting. Rich Media was shown in the client’s preferred areas and attracted people to the 3Z clinic’s services. As a result, we achieved a CTR 2.00%<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n- \n
- Socio-demographic<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Socio-demographic characteristics are important for targeting, image formats and other aspects of promotion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, pregnancy meds would rather suit women in their 20s and 40s. That’s what happened in the Vitrum<\/strong> advertising campaign, which managed to reach more than 900,000 <\/strong>target users during the entire placement period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
\n![\"Vitrum](\"https:\/\/www.byyd.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/713_1-3-1.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n- \n
- White list<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
The White List<\/strong> includes a pool of apps or categories for placement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During campaign setup, we determine with the client where the ads should appear. It helps to limit content placement to certain topics and apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
\n![\"pregnant](\"https:\/\/www.byyd.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/713_1-13-1.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nIn BYYD you can make a white list for specific topics.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Advertising formats for pharma companies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The choice of advertising format<\/a> for pharmaceutical companies depends on the purpose of the campaign and the wishes of a particular brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The BYYD platform allows advertising in the following formats:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Rich media banner<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Fullscreen banner<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Video<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Interactive video<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
1) Rich media<\/strong> is an interactive<\/a> banner. It’s created with the hypertext markup of HTML and can include a variety of media elements.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
The Rich Media format uses many ways to display information. It can be a video, a photo gallery, or an interactive game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, the image invites users to interact with it \u2013 push, pull or wipe<\/strong>. The choice of action determines the mechanics<\/a> of the format. For example, the campaign for Ibufen<\/strong> used a Rich Media format based on «pull»<\/a> mechanics.<\/p>\n\n\n
\n![\"Ibifen](\"https:\/\/www.byyd.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Group-3575-1.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n2) The Fullscreen banner<\/strong> appears after the last loaded page of the site and covers most of the user’s screen.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
This format has a low cost and a high CTR. Here’s a recent example: a campaign for \u00d6nlem<\/a>.
We focused on a fullscreen banner format, social media targeting and relevant interests. As a result, we were able to achieve a CTR 1.62%<\/strong> and reach over 1 million unique users<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n
\n![\"Onlem](\"https:\/\/www.byyd.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/713_1-15-1.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nCheck out the other <\/em>fullscreen banners<\/em><\/a> here.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
3) Video<\/strong> advertising is a format that immediately catches the user\u2019s attention. Visibility and dynamics make it one of the most popular ways of promotion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mobile placement in BYYD provides advertisers an out-stream video<\/a> format. It places the content on the text page of the site or inside the mobile app. And the user controls the watch process by himself.<\/p>\n\n\n
\n![\"video](\"https:\/\/www.byyd.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Video-1-1024x576.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nBesides, we have a non-rewarded <\/strong>video and a rewarded <\/strong>video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Non- Rewarded Video<\/strong> \u2013 the video is shown to the audience as a standard advertisement.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Rewarded Video<\/strong> \u2013 the video is shown to the user, and they get a reward for watching.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
We also offer a special type of advertising creative \u2013 interactive video<\/strong>. It’s a combination of video and Rich Media formats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4) Native banners<\/strong> cause more audience loyalty. They\u2019re well integrated into the content and well-read within the interface.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
The quality and quantity of native banners in the digital space has increased. Not surprisingly, because there are many advantages in this kind of placement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The main thing here is to choose the right target options and prepare high-quality images.<\/p>\n\n\n
\n![\"Bepanten](\"https:\/\/www.byyd.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/713_1-7-1.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nThe mobile promotion of the Bepanten brand <\/strong>used MIX banners, which included a native format. The chosen placement strategy helped to achieve a CTR 1.57%<\/strong>, as well as exceed the plan for impressions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Who creates ads<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Images for mobile promotion prepare the production department of the BYYD platform<\/strong>. Our specialists make eye-catching ads that attract the attention of users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the goals of promotion, we can also make a <\/strong>landing page<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, our team used Rich Media<\/a> creativity and a landing page <\/a>to promote Bakdiar<\/strong> for the CIS market<\/strong>. In this case we got excellent behavioral indicators and the CTR value of 2.02%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
