How to prepare B2B prospecting at CPC North 2026
-
Segment your prospects. With a large and varied audience, separate hospital pharmacy, primary care pharmacy and healthtech buyers to tailor your approach.
-
Keep messaging technical and concise. Clinicians prioritise clinical evidence and operational benefits. Bring one-page summaries with outcomes and implementation notes.
-
Book meetings via the official app. Scheduled slots outperform ad-hoc conversations in converting interest into follow-ups.
-
Deliver focused demonstrations. Live or simulated use cases that show measurable impact resonate more than generic presentations.
-
