How Product Launch Teams Can R.A.M.P. Up to Billion Dollar Product Launches in 2022

As the drug discovery market is expected to balloon to a staggering $71 billion dollar industry by 2025, it’s critical for life science companies to understand the complex dynamics that may derail their upcoming drug launches.

From mentally preparing team leaders to optimize their performance, to building the right launch team, to crafting the most effective launch strategy, to ensuring that teams execute to bring the drug to market – there are lots of moving parts that must be integrated at the right time.


At ConnectA, over the past 10 years, we have studied (and worked on) many successful 10-figure drug launches to pinpoint exactly what the most profitable launch teams had in common.


And, the thin line that differentiates million-dollar launch sales from billion-dollar drug sales within the first 90 days of launch, often comes down to mastering these four often overlooked launch components.


Resilience. The ability for leadership to navigate challenges, stay focused on the end goal of impacting the lives of patients, and empowered to make sound decisions in even high stress situations or within aggressive deadlines.

Aligned Teams. Choosing the best experts in the field for product launch teams and having a consultant as part of your team helped to create a powerful shared vision that led to an environment of synergy, accountability, and connectedness.

Momentum Planning. Successful launches leveraged tailored solutions designed to engage all stakeholders and reach a larger audience with customized marketing, while meeting compliance requirements.


Persistent Execution. Billion-dollar results were achieved when launch teams remained agile to pivot, empowered to stay committed to executing launch plans, and focused on seeing every action through to get results.


The results that can be achieved by leveraging this R.A.M.P. methodology is not only financially lucrative for the life science company, garnering acclaim as well for launch teams, but it ensures that innovative treatments make it into the hands of those who need it the most: the patients.


Take, for example, the launch of a new dermatologic drug and a cardiovascular product by a Fortune 1000 life sciences company. ConnectA worked closely with the dermatologic drug launch team, implementing the R.A.M.P. structure, while the other product launch team outsourced support to a strategy-only focused consultant.


Two similar drugs, from the same company, with two different launch support – yielded two completely different sales outcomes.


The drug that was launched not following the R.A.M.P. protocol generated $1,020,000,000 millions dollars in sales. However, the drug that was launched with the team that was supported with resilience training, an optimized team structure, with a detailed action plan, and who remained agile through delivery – it generated over $2,840,000,000 dollars.


The difference speaks for itself and can be directly tied back to the four key steps of the R.A.M.P. methodology.


That’s why, since 2012, ConnectA continues to partner with mid-size life science companies to elevate their product launch results by providing tailored support through the entire launch lifecycle, propelling companies to meet or exceed launch goals, while changing the lives of patients around the world.

However you might define success, it must be noted that success extends beyond just a career or profession. It involves a delicate interplay between personal and professional goals, each contributing significantly to an individual's overall well-being and sense of accomplishment. In this article, we will delve into the distinctions between personal and professional goals, exploring their unique attributes and discussing why a harmonious balance between the two is essential for sustained success. Defining Personal and Professional Goals : Personal Goals: Personal goals are aimed at achieving the aspirations individuals have in their personal lives. These objectives may span various dimensions, such as health and fitness, relationships, self-improvement, and leisure. These goals can be tangible and intangible, such as maintaining a healthy lifestyle, fostering meaningful connections with loved ones, acquiring new skills or hobbies, or achieving a work-life balance. Professional Goals: On the other hand, professional goals are specific targets individuals set within the context of their careers or chosen vocations. These objectives are often related to advancement, skill development, and accomplishments in the workplace. Professional goals may include securing a promotion, expanding one's skill set, completing a project successfully, or even starting and growing a business. The Interconnectedness of Personal and Professional Goals : While personal and professional goals may seem distinct, they are inherently interconnected. The achievements and challenges in one realm can significantly impact the other. For instance, a fulfilling personal life can contribute to increased motivation and productivity in the professional sphere, while career success can provide the resources and stability needed for personal pursuits. Why Personal Goals Matter : Well-Being and Fulfillment: Personal goals are integral to an individual's overall well-being and sense of fulfillment. Achieving personal milestones, such as maintaining good health, nurturing relationships, and pursuing passions, contributes to a balanced and contented life. Motivation and Resilience: Pursuing personal goals can serve as a powerful motivator during challenging professional times. Personal accomplishments and positive experiences act as a source of resilience, enabling individuals to navigate setbacks and pressures in their careers. Work-Life Balance: Personal goals play a crucial role in establishing and maintaining a healthy work-life balance. This balance is essential for preventing burnout, enhancing mental health, and fostering sustained success in the professional arena.
