With the company\u2019s high-profile chief medical officer, notable customer announcement, and research-backed content\u2014PAN\u2019s goal was to build trust in the company and its expertise across the healthcare industry.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, PAN developed a strategic thought-leadership platform to elevate the company\u2019s Chief Medical Officer (CMO) as a leading voice to address the current state of healthcare, making a big bet that empathy would be a salient topic that authentically contributes to the company\u2019s goals of owning their category.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company\u2019s media presence quickly gained momentum.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within weeks, publications like Forbes, Harvard Business Review, Quartz and Axios were sharing insights from the CMO. Every article mentioned the company, connecting thought leadership efforts.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For trade publications like Healthcare IT News and Chief Healthcare Executive, the CMO shared insights about the patient experience and the cost-of-living crisis\u2014backed by company-owned data. To round out this thought leadership strategy, PAN also leveraged 2023 predictions that the company\u2019s CMO developed, centered around ethics in healthcare, patient experience, and burnout among staff.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-ad8a8ba6\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ad8a8ba6\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-a51ae2d9 gb-headline-text is-style-u-eyebrow-heading\">result<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-067ecbad gb-headline-text\">Building an empathy-driven platform&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>PAN successfully made the company the unparalleled category leader and positioned their CMO as the voice to usher an empathy-first healthcare experience.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Media KPIs across the business media and healthcare verticals nearly tripled. The 36 pieces of coverage for the company included top-tier business media and influential healthcare verticals. This showed a 106% increase in coverage quarter-over-over. PAN\u2019s thought leadership platform skyrocketed the CMO\u2019s media coverage 116% within just one quarter.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Throughout the campaign, PAN monitored performance across key healthcare competitors, measuring both competitive share of voice (SOV) and key message pull-through.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>By the end of Q4, the company had 62% of the SOV and landed in first place in all three key message categories\u2014with 37 media articles including their category term and its second-closest competitor coming in at 13 mentions.&nbsp;\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-b27464c6 gb-headline-text is-style-u-bold-paragraph-style\">&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ec5f9601 alignfull\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-d1595e59\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-3f66eb33\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-73c7d22e gb-headline-text is-style-u-eyebrow-heading\">More work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-3048acaa gb-headline-text h1-style\">See more<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-5178928c gb-headline-text is-style-u-outline-font-teal u-move \">good stuff<\/h4>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-566b7a3a\">\n\n<a class=\"gb-button gb-button-c90b68df gb-button-text gb-button-orange-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/work\/\">View Our Full Portfolio<\/a>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"gb-button gb-button-30ad2ea9 gb-button-text-only c-arrow-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/contact\/\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\">Let&#8217;s Talk<\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg fill=\"\" viewBox=\"0 0 26 26\" height=\"26\" width=\"26\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n<g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_678_11332)\">\n<path fill=\"\" d=\"M17.5398 6.16504C18.1746 5.53027 19.2055 5.53027 19.8402 6.16504L25.5277 11.8525C26.1625 12.4873 26.1625 13.5182 25.5277 14.1529L19.8402 19.8404C19.2055 20.4752 18.1746 20.4752 17.5398 19.8404C16.9051 19.2057 16.9051 18.1748 17.5398 17.54L20.4496 14.6252H9.75C8.85117 14.6252 8.125 13.899 8.125 13.0002C8.125 12.1014 8.85117 11.3752 9.75 11.3752H20.4496L17.5348 8.46035C16.9 7.82559 16.9 6.79473 17.5348 6.15996L17.5398 6.16504Z\"><\/path>\n<\/g>\n<defs>\n<clipPath id=\"clip0_678_11332\">\n<rect fill=\"white\" height=\"26\" width=\"26\"><\/rect>\n<\/clipPath>\n<\/defs>\n<\/svg><\/span><\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-0eb11a4e\">\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-d6c53804 gb-query-loop-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":21871,"template":"","industry":[674],"service":[665,666,140],"class_list":["post-21870","case_study","type-case_study","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","industry-commerce-cx"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
