10 Tips for Connecting with Customers — Medical Device Product Launch Series

By Michele Nichols on Fri, Oct 17, 2014

The industry continues its move from a product-centric model to an increasingly customer-centric one. 

In the post-Covid environment, leading companies are moving from a multichannel model to an omnichannel one. An omnichannel approach allows customers to interact seamlessly and with personalization across multiple digital and non-digital channels.  This connection with customers before, during, and after a medical device product launch is critical to ensuring its success.
