Company
Is GPS as medium-sized company an adequate choice for me, as I represent a multicorporate enterprise?
Of course. GPS is a „hidden champion“, small, decent and smart. Also ISO-certified and audited by several international concerns. For GPS, the performance that reaches into the market, counts. Those who share these intentions, will be provided well by us.
GPS emphasizes its focus on the middle-class. How do I have to imagine that?
Middle-class means care-taking. Presence of guidance. Passion. Maximum Quality. In return, we expect our customers to be trustworthy. That decisions are made. That we are not squeezed like slice of lime with modern purchasing methods, like it is popular in other branches. All this together are the essences of successful cooperations. We call this middle-class, but these essences can also be found in multicorporate concerns.
Consulting
As foreign pharma player I want to expant into Germany. How can GPS support me?
For a geographical expansion into Germany you have in principle three different options: buying a local player, founding your own company or the start with a consulting and service project with GPS, whose structure can be transformed into a subsidiary, if successful.

In my product portfolio I have some „treasures“, for which I currently dont have sales and marketing capacities. What does GPS offer?
The themes „established products“, „mature products“ and „stand-alone products“ are common. In the GPS Consulting, we work with techniques for simulating the promotional elasticity, e.g. using the delphi method. All communication channels are simulated. At the end, you have a clear statement about the promotional elasticity and the operative profit. In a positive case, we realize our recommendations with a service project.
Service Projects
In the frame of our current restructuring, we also aim for OTC and direct paying markets, because the terms of supply and demand still function here. How can GPS support me here?
GPS has operated within these markets for many years. Deciding parameters are the promotional elasticity of the respective market: How much profit is possibly with how much effort? The classic pharma field sales model often does not fit. Sales force efficacy is the term of the hour. For example in a cross media project with GPS. Prior to the field visit, different channels of communication are penetrated: postal mailing, personalised landing pages, emails, Telesales. The field force only visits the high potential targets. This is, how you succeed!
