In Episode 4 of "Thoughts from the Greenhouse", we explore key considerations for startup pharmaceutical companies when choosing an advertising agency for the first time. Brick City Greenhouse SVP, Client Lead Renée Green joins two of our co-founders, Renée Wills and Fred Kinch, to discuss.

As startup biotech and pharma companies approach their first product launch, they transition from primarily research & development organizations into more commercial companies. It is essential they select an advertising agency that understands the process of commercializing, as well as the multiple audiences with which a newly formed commercial entity needs to communicate.

The marketing needs of a startup company can be more intricate than those of a larger, more established pharma company, and it is important to engage an agency that has a deep knowledge of those needs. The right agency partner understands that commercializing for the first time poses numerous challenges, and that success depends on remaining efficient and flexible regarding budget, workflow, and beyond.

Episode 3 of Thoughts from the Greenhouse (TFG) focuses on how pharma and biotech marketers can get the best creative work from their agencies. Fred Kinch, Ashley Schofield, and Renée Wills walk through the creative process, from creating briefs to creative reviews to concept testing and beyond.

An excellent creative brief starts this process off with a bang. This step is the best opportunity to make sure you, as a marketer, and your agency have a meeting of the minds about the direction of the campaign.

Your agency should understand that the creative process is collaborative and iterative, and they should welcome your engagement with concepts during creative reviews. Creatives value your careful consideration and straightforward feedback. Working closely with creative agency partners allows the potential for amazing creative output.

Tune into TFG Episode 3 for more tips and examples about how to help inspire strong creative work that supports your marketing goals.
