        abstract = {This paper provides an in-depth analysis of the pharmaceutical industry’s sales and marketing strategies, focusing on the evolving landscape shaped by regulations, digital transformation, and market dynamics. The document highlights the key regulatory guidelines established by PhRMA, such as restrictions on gifts and training requirements for sales representatives. It further examines the shift towards digital marketing, where online platforms and social media are increasingly utilized to engage healthcare professionals (HCPs) and consumers. The evolving sales strategies emphasize relationship-building, trust, and long-term customer engagement over traditional transactional models. Additionally, the paper discusses the challenges faced by pharmaceutical companies, such as increased competition, resistance to change, and the need for specialized sales forces. The importance of market analysis, tailored marketing strategies, and ongoing digital adoption is also emphasized in responding to industry demands.},
