A brand’s success in social media hinges on its ability to let go, to react quickly, to give consumers a voice in conversations that are only loosely controlled at best. How then is one of marketing’s most highly regulated branches – healthcare – to navigate the terrain?
It’s a question that has, for the most part, kept healthcare marketers waiting on the sidelines of the social media phenomenon.
To help answer the question, we’re pleased to present a special Grip Perspective report: Social Media in Healthcare Marketing. It draws on the latest Canadian regulatory information available from both Health Canada and the Pharmaceutical Advertising Advisory Board (PAAB). The report is co-authored by myself with Ravi Dindayal.

This looks great thanks for posting it. I work within health care and the more published documents we have the better, change takes a lot of effort!
