November 14, 2022

PHILADELPHIA, PA – CMI Media Group, a WPP company (NYSE: WPP) continues to evolve its solution suite to address the ever-shifting healthcare consumption habits and needs of consumers, patients and HCPs, through the launching of a healthcare focused ecommerce practice. The ecommerce offering will keep CMI Media Group on the cutting edge of direct-to-consumer marketing, connecting life sciences, medtech and healthcare clients to audiences ready to buy. The company has established branding partnerships with Ecommerce leaders including Amazon, Target, Walmart and other industry leaders.

CMI Media Group is continually evolving their consumer capabilities in the ever-changing world of health and wellness products. As consumers increasingly turn to DTC resources for their health needs, CMI Media Group is uniquely positioned to navigate their clients to meet their audiences where they are.  Through direct partnerships with online e-retail giants combined with over thirty years of experience in consumer behavior, demographic data, psychographic data, and core shopping analytics, CMI Media Group is able to leverage learnings to deliver increased brand awareness and higher ROIs.

“Ecommerce is a critical piece of the omnichannel journey for brands that can play in that space.  Being able to incorporate audience insights from start to finish – from the consumer’s first research into a product all the way through the conversion – will result in efficiencies that can be leveraged across multiple digital channels,” said Andrew Miller, EVP, Digital Activation. “Now, with our Ecommerce capabilities, we are able to provide end to end strategy for our clients.”

The Ecommerce capability will be led by Jacob Harrison as Director of Ecommerce Investment Strategy. Certified in AMS, as well as certifications in Google Shopping, Display, and Search, Harrison has a history of transforming brick and mortar retailers into digital shopping experiences through innovative marketing, strategic partnerships with leading technology, and by remaining at the forefront of testing opportunities with key partners. At CMI Media Group, Harrison plans to utilize his experience to deliver a new marketing landscape for clients to get Rx and OTC products in the hands of patients and consumers.

“The Ecommerce landscape has seen major shifts over the last few years between a global pandemic and changing consumer behavior due to rising inflation. I am excited to join an organization that has remained on the cutting edge of these changes and been able to drive results with leading innovation and technology,” said Harrison. “My goal is to help clients diversify their shopping channels, expand their reach, and implement strategic initiatives online leading to increased shopping opportunity, brand loyalty, and a strong customer lifetime value.”
