PulsePoint sees this exclusive and forward-thinking approach as the only way to truly identify which HCP you're communicating with. Advertisers using this solution know exactly who is in front of the device and can linearly measure and optimize in real time how that touchpoint impacts physician behavior.

"The public is demanding that marketers know where their customer data is sourced from for measurement and advertising.
