Omnichannel is non‑negotiable in pharma and medtech marketing. In recent study 97% of industry leaders say it’s vital. Yet execution remains consistently fragmented, and fewer than half even measure ROI regularly. That’s the mission-critical gap any marketer needs to bridge. I am here to help.
Benchmarks That Put ROI in Frame
1. Revenue Uplift
When omnichannel is done right, top performers record over 15% revenue gains.
Many report 5–15% lifts, particularly where personalised, multi-channel approaches are scaled.
2. Marketing Efficiency Gains
Pharma innovators using hybrid commercial models see 10–40% improvements in marketing efficiency—faster time to market and lower cost per outcome.
3. Investment Signals
Companies allocate 10–15% of their promotional and advertising budget to omnichannel solutions—evidence of meaningful investment.
4. Strategic Capability Gaps
As BCG study shows medtech and biopharma marketing leaders identifycritical gaps:
- 30% lack a clear omnichannel strategy, especially SMEs.
- 90% cite data silos as a major barrier; only 10% have fully integrated data systems.
- Only 7% are broadly leveraging AI/GenAI in omnichannel.
- Less than 17% review performance metrics more than monthly.

- Track performance monthly those who review less frequently (only 17% do so monthly or more often) risk losing momentum.
