It is important to involve experts early in the design process of pharmaceutical promotional packaging according to Bob Bernstein and Peter Gould. Getting expert advice from the beginning helps ensure projects are feasible and cost-effective. Dimensional packaging generates more interest from doctors and patients by effectively delivering complex messaging in a cluttered marketplace. Promotional packaging must have "pass through value" for representatives, doctors, patients, and the brand by providing something of intellectual value for busy doctors and keeping representatives connected.
