The ROI of Endemic Patient Advertising
Pharma ad budgets are massive—over $8 billion annually in digital spend. Yet most of that spend is wasted on channels that don’t guarantee reach to qualified patients. For agencies tasked with stewarding multimillion-dollar budgets, this mismatch is more than inefficiency—it’s lost opportunity.
Endemic advertising solves this problem. And Inspire delivers it at scale.
Why Endemic Matters
General digital platforms (Google, Meta, programmatic networks) excel at reach but fail on relevance. Targeting algorithms can approximate patient interest but rarely achieve precision. That means wasted impressions, low engagement, and inflated CPMs.
By contrast, endemic platforms like Inspire start with verified patient and caregiver audiences, already engaged in disease-specific conversations. Every impression is delivered to a high-quality, health-focused audience—no guesswork, no wasted media.
Inspire’s Differentiator
For agencies managing brand and disease portfolios, Inspire offers:
Audience Depth
Over 10 million unique annual visitors, spanning more than 3,000 disease states. That includes millions of opted-in, first-party members—with detailed condition, demographic, and engagement data.
Engagement Quality
The average Inspire post is 16x longer than a Facebook post. Patients spend 10+ minutes more per session compared to other health sites. This translates into higher attention, more impactful impressions, and more meaningful engagement.
Exclusive Access:
Inspire’s communities are a closed ecosystem. You’re not competing with other advertisers for attention; you can secure 100% share-of-voice placements in the conditions that matter to your client’s brand.
Proven ROI
In side-by-side tests with other endemic publishers, Inspire consistently ranked #1 in audience quality and delivered up to 4.3x more treatments per exposed patient compared to benchmark. In psoriasis, Inspire delivered a 3.3x higher adoption rate and a 2.7x longer adherence rate, generating over $7.6M in incremental revenue from just 100 patients.
Why Agencies Choose Inspire
- Better ROI vs. Broad Programmatic: CPMs are competitive, but because every impression hits an endemic patient or caregiver, effective CPM is far lower.
- Compliance and Control: Inspire’s environments are moderated, branded, and trusted by patients—minimizing brand risk while maximizing performance.
- Cross-Channel Reach: Inspire extends first-party data off-platform, multiplying campaign reach across premium CTV, audio, and programmatic placements—while maintaining the precision of endemic targeting.
The Agency Advantage
Your clients expect you to deliver results. Inspire doesn’t just deliver impressions—we deliver measurable actions:
- Higher adoption (3x+ industry average)
- Longer adherence (2.7x more days on therapy)
- Better patient quality scores (highest among all endemic publishers tested)
