Activating a new EU market entrant through digital transformation – case study

5 Nov 2024 | By Consulting Team
The client was a new entrant into the EU market after having a large presence in eastern Asia and a growing presence in the US. They were 2-3 years away from launching their first product in the EU.

Challenge

As they were new to the EU, the client had minimal resource to begin planning for launches centrally and in country. Across the EU, their unaided awareness was significantly lower than their strong competitors who presented a difficult market to increase their share of voice in.​

Solution

Through a phased approach, Digital Transformation presented an opportunity to reach customers in a new way through digital channels whilst allowing for sustainable internal change as the client company grew.

Phase 1: Planning

Quantitative digital innovation assessment

Launch planning & framework development (incl. audit of current digital processes)

2-day innovation workshop to create programme of workstreams to execute Digital Transformation

 

Phase 2: Foundation

Pilot activities that build the foundation for the wider delivery of a digital transformation programme, including: ​

EU5 Search pilot (Determined HCP behaviours and topics of interest)

EU Persona development ​

(for all key customer types)​

Compliance and executive team digital training​

 

Phase 3: Delivery

Execution of an 8 workstream digital transformation programme:

Digital campaigns | Virtual platform development | Market insights

Digital content | Internal comms | Website optimisation

CRM evolution | Digital training

 

Impact

6 x increase in unaided awareness

The client central function and in-country teams saw increased engagement across digital platforms where traffic was significantly lower before. ​

Internal change management was successful in highlighting the importance of digital in customer engagements with internal teams continuing to implement digital and omnichannel initiatives.​
