From Care City
Digital Marketing for Healthcare and Health-tech Brands
We want to explore how copywriting, marketing, and storytelling can help healthcare and health-tech brands drive value.
There are very few start-ups or companies doing this, especially here in Africa. We want to contribute to the overall development of the healthcare ecosystem in Africa with the use of innovative copywriting styles; storytelling approaches and marketing techniques.
Healthcare is so conservative compared to other sectors. However, consumers of healthcare and health-tech products and services are becoming wiser—they want to know why your product or service is best for them.
This is where we come into the picture. We will bring in tried and true marketing methods and techniques and modify them to fit the healthcare ecosystem.
This is an initiative we are still building.
If you have any ideas or would like to join the team we are putting together, send us an e-mail here: info@carecityonline.com introducing yourself and what you are bringing on board.
