DATAPHARM launches PHARMAscope

Introducing the latest from DATAPHARM’s pharmacyEXTRA

PHARMAscope is the latest addition to pharmacyEXTRA, a unique way to market to independently owned pharmacies and their customers. Utilising Toniq POS transaction data we can provide you with deep insights into your brand performance in channel - everything from real pricing, stock weight, basket analysis and so much more.

A major frustration for all brand owners is clear information on brand performance especially with respect to your competitors. Pricing information is critical but all too often a recommended retail price is just that, a recommendation with little connection to what really happens in a pharmacy. With PHARMAscope from pharmacyEXTRA you can gain a deep insight into actual transaction pricing of your products in pharmacy and see how much variation there really is in what your brand sells for.

Let's take a look at a real example.

This product is in the top 10 of both the Cough & Cold and Natural Health categories in New Zealand pharmacy. Take a look at the chart below. It shows several interesting things. Firstly it shows that the average retail price was $22.13 over the previous 24 months. Yet the range of pricing goes all the way from one pharmacy selling as high as $29.56 to another selling as low as $8.69! Sure these are the extremes and the Average sales item price plot shows that on average pricing has ranged from $18.91 in April 2022 to a high of $23.74 in October 2023.
