Event Details
Is this the future of pharmacy?
Award winning NZ pharmacist, thought leader and author reveals his unique retail method that outperforms national averages by up to 19 times in the natural health category.
- Are your customers getting their full healthcare solution from your store, or are they spending money elsewhere in their search for answers?
- Is your pharmacy poised to take advantage of the “next trillion dollar industry”?
You are invited to join a one-day workshop that will revolutionise the way your pharmacy offers services to the public. Facilitated by Martin Harris, pharmacist and author of Optimal prescription health, and Adam Gibson, Australasia’s leading health industry business expert.
Pharmacy is going through an intense transitional period fuelled by the rise of price- slashing dispensary chains and growing public interest in nutritional medicine. How do we safeguard and reinvent our profession?It’s time for pharmacists to reclaim their roles as primary healthcare providers; to come out from behind the counter and re-engage with their local community in a meaningful way.
As natural health continues to gain traction worldwide, the time has come for a new type of pharmacist; one who understands both conventional and complementary medicines, and can advise their customers on a safe and effective combination of both.
Can you afford to ignore the new reality in retail pharmacy?
