Review Turning the Tables on the Front Desk Problem in Pharmaceutical Sales / IDC Research:This Life Science Insights Flash looks at PreferredTime's detail scheduling service and what it offers to both doctors and drug reps. Increasingly, a conflict exists at the front desk of U. S. physician offices. All parties to the doctor/drug company union agree that the marriage has gone sour. Pharmaceutical sales representatives are forced to wait in line for the chance to see a valued "high prescriber" while physicians decry the income lost to saturation selling in the form of the seemingly endless series of details, often describing the same brand. The physician's front desk staff is left to manage this unhealthy relationship by simply keeping the reps at bay. PreferredTime, founded in 2003 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, seeks to heal the doc/rep rift by using technology to schedule detailing and sampling appointments.

Review Inroads to the Philippine SME Market, 2005 / IDC Research:This IDC study aims to better define the small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) segment of the Philippine economy, and in doing so, provide valuable insight to information and communication technology (ICT) vendors of the direction and trends, which SMEs will be following for the year ahead. Moreover, this study will identify specific drivers and inhibitors in relation to SMEs' IT spending behavior, which will establish the corresponding relationship between possible inroads that ICT vendors can take towards the SME market. "Vendors must be responsive and respect the particular needs of SMEs. Product and service offerings must be based on the inherent characteristics and needs of a Filipino SME. Value-added services, regardless of alliances with other vendors, must be sought out in order to effectively convince the SME the benefits of adopting IT-based solutions. As most SMEs are still in the initial phase of IT adoption, vendors must educate and orient SMEs to the substantial benefits of moving from traditional business processes towards IT-centric solutions. It is during this education process where SMEs should realize the true rewards and value of intended ICT solutions," says Manuel J. Ravago, research manager, IDC Philippines.
