Video for pharmacies: inform your customers and showcase your services
A pharmacy is much more than medicines: advice, screenings, vaccinations, health and beauty products, on-duty hours. A short animated video makes these services known to your neighborhood, on social media and on your window screen. Here are ideas, a script and prompts, respecting pharmacy communication rules.

6 video ideas for pharmacies
01Lesser-known services

“On duty this weekend”: the most useful info for your neighborhood.
03Seasonal tips
Sun, mosquitoes, flu, allergies: one prevention tip per season.
04The window screen
A 30-second loop that tells passers-by about your services.
05The team
Team faces make the pharmacy feel closer.
06Health and beauty
Non-medicine aisles (skincare, baby, sun care) can usually be promoted more freely.
