WEST CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa., Sept. 24 -- GEL Interactive Technologies, a Cadient Group company, announced today the launch of its Key Opinion Leader (KOL) management platform, OneVoice: KOL. OneVoice: KOL provides the critical features and tools needed to help brand teams and their partners manage an active advocate campaign throughout the brand lifecycle - from advocate identification through the management and development of these key assets.
Building on the foundation of a centralized, permission-based portal, OneVoice: KOL fosters a collaborative, web-based environment where both domestic and global teams can collaborate, learn, and carry out a common strategic vision.
"As advocates continue to gain more value within healthcare organizations, there is a greater need to ensure that relationships with qualified professionals are viewed through the lens of maximizing their full potential as advocates -- from initial recruitment phase through the brand's evolution and maturity," said Mark Kent, Senior Product Director (Portals), GEL Interactive Technologies. "With nearly 10 years of opinion leader management experience leveraged into OneVoice: KOL, we understand the needs of internal MSL/KOL managers and the external users they work with. OneVoice: KOL was created to support the advocate life cycle process with tools that streamline identification and profiling, and strategically monitor goals, advocate development and management."
The OneVoice: KOL Platform introduces several new and innovative features for brand teams and their partners, including:
Relationship Transparency Monitoring
