Pharmaceutical Sales Forces: Benchmarking Sales
Force Management by Geographical Market and
Product Lifecycle provides an in-depth profile of 56
sales forces' size and structure from 41 companies
operating in Japan, US, UK, Spain, Italy, Germany and
France.
Breakdown includes rep allocation by target audience, therapy area/indication and
region, which is correlated with the marketed portfolio defining key areas of
promotional focus. Benchmarking analysis also reviews sales support technologies.
Optimizing sales force size and structure throughout the product lifecycle is discussed
with use of a proprietary benchmarking ROI model. The study also benchmarks 14
top tier companies' investment in primary care promotion in the US and Europe from
1998-2001. Investment strategies and ROI in detailing versus marketing are
compared with support of a proprietary revenue potential index.

Key findings and highlights
• Companies are not maximizing their returns from detailing spend despite
the continual focus to maintain high sales force numbers.
• Each stage of a product's lifecycle presents a different set of objectives to a
pharmaceutical marketer when intending to maximize revenue potential. Sales
force size and structure has to evolve to fully realize this sales potential but
without driving promotional costs up and reducing associated profit margins.
• Sales force size and structure has to be linked directly with product performance.
• The regional focus of a sales force has to be driven by physicians'
prescribing behavior. Determining the sales potential of the product defines
which areas would benefit greatly from sales force presence.

Summary of Contents
DRIVERS AND TRENDS
Sales force expansion has not generated the expected returns but
companies are under pressure to match the promotional spend of
competitors to maintain their sales force 'share of voice,' which refers
to the number of reps detailing a particular drug. Datamonitor defines
the key problem in promotional investment through benchmark
analysis and provides a solution to improve sales force effectiveness.
• How can face-to-face detailing with physicians be increased?
• What metrics do I need to better assess the sales
force's productivity?
• What stages of the product lifecycle should changes in sales
force size be made?
• How are different sales forces sized and structured in
seven regional markets?
• How does the same company organize its sales force in
different markets?
COMPANIES NEED TO RE-THINK CURRENT DETAILING
STRATEGIES TO HALT DECLINING RETURNS
Companies are not maximizing their returns from detailing spend
despite the continual focus to maintain high sales force numbers.
Furthermore, the size of the sales force had a negligible impact on
returns. A large sales force produced similar returns to a smaller sales
force indicating that economies of scale did not factor into achieving
high revenue margins from increased detailing investment.
Datamonitor challenges the industry's focus on maintaining high face-
to-face detailing spend and instead recommends the level of
investment change in favor of more effective promotional strategies.
• Benchmark analysis of current promotional strategies of the top
14 pharmaceutical companies
• Apply a proprietary revenue potential index to identify
optimal promotional effectiveness
• Determine if high investment in either detailing or
marketing boosts ethical revenues
• Identifying key tactics to increase promotional effectiveness
• Benefit from recommendations to optimize sales
force effectiveness
OPTIMZING SALES FORCE SIZE AND STRUCTURE
THROUGHOUT THE PRODUCT LIFECYCLE
Each stage of a product's lifecycle presents a different set of
objectives to a pharmaceutical marketer when intending to maximize
revenue potential. Consequently, sales force size and structure have
to evolve to ensure the product's full sales potential is captured but
without driving promotional costs up and reducing associated profit
margins. Datamonitor suggests that companies need to understand
the true sales performance of their product by determining which
sectors of the customer segment have highest sales potential.
• Compare and contrast the size and structure of sales forces
from top, middle and lower tier companies
• Benchmark current sizing and structuring strategies applied by
the same company to its sales force in different markets
• Use proprietary analysis to define which metrics provide
an overview of sales force performance
• Identify the key changes needed in either sales force size
or structure throughout the product lifecycle
• Provide recommendations of best practice in sizing
and structuring sales forces
SALES FORCE STRUCTURES: JAPAN, US, UK, SPAIN,
ITALY, GERMANY AND FRANCE
Sales force size and structure varies in each market and is mainly
driven by the type of target audience sought, size of the marketed
portfolio and regional coverage. Datamonitor provides a detailed
breakdown of 56 sales forces from 41 companies operating in seven
geographical markets.
• Access accurate 2003 sales force data and opinions of
senior sales executives
• Identify the key promotional focus of each sales force
• Understand the rationale for either expanding or reducing
a particular sales force
• Compare and contrast the size and structure of sales forces
from top, middle and lower tier companies within the same
market communicating product value
• To implement effective reimbursement strategies,
pharmaceutical companies must adopt an organizational
structure that enables coordination across multiple business
functions while accounting for global variation in reimbursement
policy

  • 4. Source: Datamonitor Survey Summary of Contents DRIVERS AND TRENDS Sales force expansion has not generated the expected returns but companies are under pressure to match the promotional spend of competitors to maintain their sales force 'share of voice,' which refers to the number of reps detailing a particular drug. Datamonitor defines the key problem in promotional investment through benchmark analysis and provides a solution to improve sales force effectiveness. • How can face-to-face detailing with physicians be increased? • What metrics do I need to better assess the sales force's productivity? • What stages of the product lifecycle should changes in sales force size be made? • How are different sales forces sized and structured in seven regional markets? • How does the same company organize its sales force in different markets? COMPANIES NEED TO RE-THINK CURRENT DETAILING STRATEGIES TO HALT DECLINING RETURNS Companies are not maximizing their returns from detailing spend despite the continual focus to maintain high sales force numbers. Furthermore, the size of the sales force had a negligible impact on returns. A large sales force produced similar returns to a smaller sales force indicating that economies of scale did not factor into achieving high revenue margins from increased detailing investment. Datamonitor challenges the industry's focus on maintaining high face- to-face detailing spend and instead recommends the level of investment change in favor of more effective promotional strategies. • Benchmark analysis of current promotional strategies of the top 14 pharmaceutical companies • Apply a proprietary revenue potential index to identify optimal promotional effectiveness • Determine if high investment in either detailing or marketing boosts ethical revenues • Identifying key tactics to increase promotional effectiveness • Benefit from recommendations to optimize sales force effectiveness OPTIMZING SALES FORCE SIZE AND STRUCTURE THROUGHOUT THE PRODUCT LIFECYCLE Each stage of a product's lifecycle presents a different set of objectives to a pharmaceutical marketer when intending to maximize revenue potential. Consequently, sales force size and structure have to evolve to ensure the product's full sales potential is captured but without driving promotional costs up and reducing associated profit margins. Datamonitor suggests that companies need to understand the true sales performance of their product by determining which sectors of the customer segment have highest sales potential. • Compare and contrast the size and structure of sales forces from top, middle and lower tier companies • Benchmark current sizing and structuring strategies applied by the same company to its sales force in different markets • Use proprietary analysis to define which metrics provide an overview of sales force performance • Identify the key changes needed in either sales force size or structure throughout the product lifecycle • Provide recommendations of best practice in sizing and structuring sales forces SALES FORCE STRUCTURES: JAPAN, US, UK, SPAIN, ITALY, GERMANY AND FRANCE Sales force size and structure varies in each market and is mainly driven by the type of target audience sought, size of the marketed portfolio and regional coverage. Datamonitor provides a detailed breakdown of 56 sales forces from 41 companies operating in seven geographical markets. • Access accurate 2003 sales force data and opinions of senior sales executives • Identify the key promotional focus of each sales force • Understand the rationale for either expanding or reducing a particular sales force • Compare and contrast the size and structure of sales forces from top, middle and lower tier companies within the same market communicating product value • To implement effective reimbursement strategies, pharmaceutical companies must adopt an organizational structure that enables coordination across multiple business functions while accounting for global variation in reimbursement policy APPENDIX • Glossary of sales force terms • Benchmark analysis of leading pharmaceutical companies • Regional maps • Methodology for use of the CAM Group data • Datamonitor's promotional universe • Datamonitor's revenue potential index DATASETS Table 1: Returns on promotional investment by top tier pharmaceutical companies, 1998-2001 Table 2: Johnson & Johnson's revenues by division, 2001-02 Table 3: Revenue Potential Index scores per company Table 4: Leading companies' portfolio composition*, 2001 Table 5: Revenue and sales force data for participating top tier companies Table 6: Revenue and sales force data for participating middle tier companies Table 7: Revenue and sales force data for participating lower tier companies Table 8: Revenue and sales force data for the participating and predominantly privately owned companies Table 9: Bayer: sales force data in the US, Japan and Spain, 2003 Table 10: Boehringer Ingelheim: sales force data in the US, Germany and France, 2003 Table 11: Chugai Pharma: sales force data in Germany and France, 2003 “...The ROI from physician detailing is declining and continual sales force expansion is a major contributor to this outcome...”
