Overview

ApoMed.at is a reputable Austrian online pharmacy from Upper Austria that also offers its online customers advice from trained pharmacy professionals on the web.

Challenge

Not least because of the Corona pandemic, online pharmacies recorded enormous growth. While this also applies to smaller Austrian online pharmacies such as ApoMed.at, it is primarily the large international corporations that benefit. The challenges include drawing attention to the unequal conditions and ‘rules of the game’, positioning ApoMed.at as a reputable, local online pharmacy and presenting its operator as a media expert on health questions.

Solution

Educational work on the rules and conditions in the online pharmacy market, and on service topics in the health sector that go hand in hand with the online pharmacy’s offering. PR measures implemented: press releases, organisation and support of interviews, editorial days, story pitching to business, lifestyle and health media.

Impact

Articles in all the major and relevant Austrian media such as Kurier, Der Standard, Die Presse, Salzburger Nachrichten, OÖN, Woman, trend, etc.
