In the biopharma industry, social media is more than a marketing tool—it’s a regulated communication platform where every post, comment, and ad must comply with FDA, FTC, and company standards. Yet, many organizations still rely on a tangled mix of disconnected tools—spreadsheets, PowerPoint decks, PDFs, and emails—to manage their social media programs.
This fragmented “social stack” slows teams down, increases operational costs, and adds compliance risk. A single compliant post—once it goes through creative, MLR, and legal review—can cost $10,000 or more in time, resources, and coordination.
MarketBeam changes that equation.
The Problem: Too Many Tools, Too Little Integration
Most life sciences teams use 8–10 separate tools to get a single post reviewed and published:
| Function | Typical Tools Used |
|---|---|
| Submission/mock-up development | PowerPoint, Word, PDF |
| Collaboration and review | Email, Teams, Slack |
| Publishing and scheduling | Sprinklr, Hootsuite |
| Monitoring and triaging comments | Sprinklr, spreadsheets |
| Reporting AEs and record keeping | Excel, SharePoint |
| Analytics and reporting | Google Analytics, native dashboards |
| MLR approval | Veeva PromoMats |
Each system serves one purpose, but none are integrated. That means duplication, manual re-entry, and high human oversight at every stage.
A single post may start in PowerPoint, get exported as a PDF, uploaded to Veeva, downloaded for edits, emailed to reviewers, published manually through Sprinklr, and tracked in Excel. Multiply that across hundreds of assets annually, and inefficiency becomes a multimillion-dollar problem.
The Future State: One Platform, Every Solution
MarketBeam unifies every stage of social media management into one seamless, compliant workflow.
1. Content Creation & Mock-Ups
Build posts and ad mock-ups directly within MarketBeam—no PowerPoint decks or PDFs required.
2. AI-Driven Compliance Pre-Check
Automatically screen content for FDA/FTC risks, missing disclaimers, or off-label violations before submission.
3. Veeva PromoMats Integration
Submit assets directly for MLR approval. Once approved, they flow back into MarketBeam automatically for publishing.
4. Publishing & Scheduling
Distribute approved content as organic posts or paid ads across LinkedIn, Meta, X, and employee advocacy channels.
5. Monitoring & AE Detection
AI continuously monitors comments and DMs, flags potential adverse events, and routes them for compliant response.
6. Analytics & Record Keeping
View performance metrics, maintain audit logs, and store all assets with 7-year retention—in one system.
Instead of juggling multiple disjointed tools, teams now operate from one unified, intelligent platform designed for regulated industries.
How the Savings Add Up
Every manual step adds cost and risk. By automating content workflows and removing redundant tools, MarketBeam reduces total operational costs by up to 95%.
| Activity | Legacy Cost | With MarketBeam |
|---|---|---|
| MLR prep and submission | $2,000+ (manual deck creation) | Automated with built-in mock-ups |
| Compliance review cycles | $3,000+ (multiple rounds) | AI Pre-Check reduces re-submissions |
| Publishing and monitoring | $2,000+ (Sprinklr + manual tracking) | Automated publishing + AI monitoring |
| Analytics and reporting | $1,000+ (multiple systems) | Unified dashboards |
| Audit and record keeping | $1,000+ | Automatic 7-year logs |
Total per-post cost: drops from ~$10,000 to under $500, while cycle times shorten by 40–50%.
That’s not a marginal improvement—it’s a redefinition of operational efficiency.
