The Ice Bucket Challenge, a viral phenomenon from 2014 that raised over $115 million for ALS research, has returned with a new focus on mental health. This trend showcased the power of social media for fundraising and marketing within the pharmaceutical industry. With potential changes in direct-to-consumer advertising regulations proposed by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, there may be a shift from TV ads to social media for pharmaceutical companies. As consumers increasingly seek health information online, the industry will face new challenges and opportunities in digital marketing.
"The ice bucket challenge didnât promote development for any specific drug, but it highlighted how social media can be leveraged and create conversations through unconventional or unbranded marketing tactics."
