Sanofi / Opella: turning Dulco market evidence into brand action.

This case shows how I connected market analysis, HCP leave-behinds, media assets, live website content, and cross-functional coordination across DulcoLax and DulcoSoft. The work was not only to understand the category. It was to make the next action clear.

How to read the proof

The useful skill is making regulated healthcare work usable across teams.

Market interpretation

Belgium material translated category decline, brand resilience, SKU roles, and competitor movement into a decision layer.

HCP and pharmacy activation

The Dulco leave-behind framed product education for GPs, pharmacists, sampling, and recommendation behavior.

Website and content coordination

The live DulcoLax Switzerland site and constipation article show writing, localization, SEO, web, regulatory, and brand-team alignment.

Campaign execution

The ad, media plan, and product assets connect consumer education with a concrete launch system across channels.

The situation

The Dulco portfolio could not be managed as a simple performance table. Value, volume, segment movement, SKU contribution, consumer misconceptions, HCP relevance, regulatory boundaries, media timing, and website behavior all mattered at the same time.

What I contributed

I helped organize that complexity into work teams could act on: where the category was declining, where DulcoLax and DulcoSoft were holding or growing, which SKUs deserved attention, how HCP material should explain the recommendation logic, and how web, media, sales, agency, regulatory, and brand inputs needed to line up.

What it shows

I can work with data without making the output feel cold. My strength is connecting numbers to decisions, messages, audience behavior, stakeholder coordination, and the next practical action.

The work showed up in market, not only in decks.

The strongest proof is the connection between the strategy documents and the public-facing work: website, article, ad, product education, and the team rhythm behind it.

Campaign adConsumer-facing activation

The ad and website make the point visible: the work became live market communication, not only internal planning.

This is the clearer message: I can move from market evidence to regulated content, agency coordination, HCP material, and public-facing execution.
