To obtain a competitive advantage, through the rapidity, efficiency and maximization of the profits, Eli Lilly should adopt the heavyweight team approach for the successful commercialization of Evista. In an industry where the rate of development of a successful product is 0.2% and the development time of more than 10 years, commercialization of a drug must be given utmost short-term importance lest a bad decision waste years of work. The short-term challenge the company faces is the resistance from the functional teams. The managers of the functional teams must be trained to understand the importance of generating profits for the organization and hence the need for sharing/temporarily losing their key resources. Though the heavyweight teams were given free-hand in choosing and utilizing the resources in the development phase; during the

While health foods stores attract consumers to purchase health supplements, many manufacturers use health food stores to promote their bogus products. In March 1999, the FTC filed a complaint in federal court against the makers of Vitamin O. The company ran false ads claiming the Vitamin O supplement prevents cancer, heart, and lung disease by adding an extra oxygen supplement to the bloodstream. With no scientific evidence to prove the benefits of Vitamin O, the two companies from Washington agreed to a settlement of $375,000 for consumer compensation. The settlement prohibited the Vitamin O manufacturers from making claims that were unsupported about the Vitamin O health benefits. Testimonials and endorsements of product represented through previous experience from members of the public who used the product were also prohibited in the settlement. In conclusion, marketing agents with false science beliefs have one common goal: To sell! We as consumers must be aware and informed of unknown supplements that claims to have a great deal of impact to your life. These products are known for its testimonials by doctors and actors that make claims of using the product. Pseudoscience supplements have caused serious illnesses and even death due to consumers lack of knowledge when purchasing these products. It is strongly recommended that consumers research the companies and the product that advertise false products very carefully before purchasing a supplement that claims to

They could have chosen a compete strategy which would have the pharmaceutical product go head to head up against their main competitor Pfizer’s Viagra. Finally, they could have chosen a beat strategy, where the option is to come up with a different positioning in order to reach a broader market.

But regardless, it became more marketable ever since 1994 when FDA lost most of their power over regulations on the production of dietary supplements. The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994 changed significantly how vitamins, herbs and other supplements are regulated (Ashar et al, 2007). The government realized how important dietary supplements in the economy was by being commodities used by half the population, which was spending annually about 4 billion on 4000 products sold by 600 manufacturers (Swann, 2015). The sales for supplements have skyrocketed and now manufacturers are able to claim they have ingredients in their products when in reality they do not because of the lack of supervision from the FDA. Companies should be conducting experiments and doing research to properly market their products but most of the time they do not and still put their products out. Consumers should be able to have the freedom to buy their choice of supplements but these products should be regulated to assure buyers that they are purchasing good quality and safe products.
