Background

Boehringer, a global leader in animal health, needed to strengthen its direct-to-consumer presence in China. The launch of its deworming medicine faced two challenges: a competitive retail environment dominated by pharmacies, and limited direct access to end customers. To capture long-term loyalty, Boehringer turned to social CRM and DTC operations, building a first-party data foundation and direct engagement model inside WeChat.
