Paths to Revenue1. Private label patient networks within HelpAround
We are witnessing demand from healthcare service providers in the US, looking to provide their patients with everyday peer support. Our first pilot is with a 1000-member cancer hospital in California.
2. Lead generation for clinical trials - patient recruitment By building patient profiles, we can provide a more targeted alternative to patient recruitment. The estimates are that a recruited patient can be worth $500-1000.
3. Lead generation for local pharmacies (independent pharmacies)As Mail Order pharmacies collapse and consolidate as a result of the Affordable Care Act, local pharmacies have the opportunity to capture diabetic patients, and HelpAround is in a strong position to provide qualified location-based leads in this process.
4. Freemium model Charge users for premium features, e.g. caregiver alerts, Q&A with medical professionals, etc.
1. Import questions from Twitter
2. Facebook mobile ads: thus far $1.6 per download (diabetes)
3. SEO - every Q&A thread is optimized to rank high in Google search results
4. Viral – “Grow Your Safety Net” features
