Strengthening Thought Leadership on LinkedIn
We helped a healthtech company establish its leadership in data security, leading to high engagement from VCs, investors, and healthcare stakeholders through a LinkedIn Live event and a published industry report.
A healthtech company specialising in electronic medical records storage faced challenges in differentiating itself within a highly competitive market. As they prepared to engage with healthcare providers and potential customers, it became crucial to build a distinct competitive edge. They sought a solution that would demonstrate their expertise and establish credibility, particularly in the area of data security.

To position the company as a trusted leader in data security, we developed a comprehensive thought leadership campaign focused on highlighting the founding team’s expertise. This began with the creation of an insightful industry report that revealed current gaps and future risks in healthcare data security. The report also included a strategic action plan to address these risks, solidifying the company’s position as an authority on the topic.

To further amplify their influence, we hosted a LinkedIn Live event, showcasing the report findings to key stakeholders, including healthcare providers, investors, and regulatory bodies. This event served as an excellent platform to directly engage potential customers and investors while positioning the company as a thought leader in their sector.

  • LinkedIn event >146 attendees, including VCs, investors, and NHS stakeholders
  • Report published and shared with event participants and through proactive outreach on LinkedIn
  • Secured speaker opportunities at 2 investor-attended events to present the findings
Raising the Profile of Pharma Leaders

We executed a six-month multichannel thought leadership campaign for three senior pharmaceutical leaders, resulting in a 28% increase in connections on LinkedIn and secured high-profile speaking opportunities.

A leading global pharmaceutical company sought to elevate the internal and external profiles of three senior leaders, including the heads of immunology, neuroscience, and market access. Their goal was to enhance the visibility of these leaders as key voices within their therapeutic areas and the broader healthcare industry.

We executed a six-month multichannel thought leadership program, tailored to each leader’s area of expertise. The campaign involved optimising their LinkedIn profiles to reflect their leadership status and expand their professional networks. We developed and implemented a publishing schedule featuring ghost-written articles and posts on trending industry topics, carefully crafted to highlight each leader’s unique perspective.

The campaign was designed to foster engagement across multiple channels, with a focus on increasing their visibility within the industry and securing speaking opportunities at key events. We also provided a network growth strategy to help them connect with key stakeholders.

  • 54 articles and posts published
  • Average post engagement increased from 12% to 68%
  • 28% growth in new LinkedIn connections
  • Secured 8 speaking opportunities at high-profile events, including Beckers, Reuters Pharma USA, and Health.Reconsidered
Boosting Visibility to Secure Biotech Funding

We helped an early-stage biotech company build visibility and generate interest from investors through a LinkedIn-focused campaign, leading to media coverage, speaking engagements, and investor interest.

An early-stage biotech company, nearing the end of its grant funding, approached us for help as they prepared to raise their next round of investment. They recognized the need to increase their visibility to attract new investors but had not planned beyond creating an investor deck. Time was of the essence, and they required a strategic approach to capture the attention of potential investors.

We developed and implemented a 12-month visibility campaign, focusing primarily on LinkedIn and securing coverage in targeted investor and biotech media outlets. The first step was creating a compelling company narrative and messaging framework that clearly articulated their value proposition and growth potential. We optimised the LinkedIn profiles of the co-founders and set a consistent publishing schedule to showcase their expertise and highlight the company’s progress.

Our strategy also included proactive media outreach, ensuring the company received coverage in relevant outlets, further positioning them as an attractive investment opportunity.

  • 8 pieces of media coverage in the first eight months
  • 4 speaking opportunities generated through increased LinkedIn activity
  • 3 inbound inquiries from angel investors and 2 from venture capital firms
Developing a Strategic PR Plan for Success
We designed a six-month PR strategy for a biotech CSO with a limited budget, providing a comprehensive toolkit and guidance that led to seven media placements.
The Chief Scientific Officer (CSO) of a biotech company needed guidance on developing a comprehensive marketing and public relations strategy. With a limited budget, the company required a cost-effective solution that could be implemented in-house while still delivering measurable results. The CSO wanted a clear strategy with the flexibility to execute it internally, supported by ongoing expert guidance.

We crafted a six-month PR strategy tailored to the company’s unique needs, which included a step-by-step implementation toolkit. This toolkit equipped the internal team with the necessary tools to execute the strategy independently. Monthly check-in calls with Make Business Social ensured the team stayed on track and received ongoing support.

Key elements of the strategy included developing a consistent messaging framework and company narrative, creating a press release template for major announcements, and outlining a targeted media strategy with clear milestones and identified story angles. We also provided comprehensive guidance on optimising LinkedIn profiles and creating a content calendar to maintain a consistent presence on the platform.

  • The team felt confident and well-equipped to implement the strategy independently, with ongoing support from Make Business Social
  • A cost-effective solution that laid the foundations for consistent messaging and visibility
  • 7 pieces of coverage secured in investor and trade media outlets within the first six months
