Endorsements
Today's workplace is all about conflicting priorities, too little time and ever-shrinking resource. That's why calling Catalyst makes so much sense!
Commercial Director Europe
“The UK incentives e-newsletter and data tools are really impressive – a great way to share results and motivate the salesforce to achieve excellence!”
Director Sales & Operations

Vice President - Ophthalmology EAME
“Great work on the Observational Study Programme e-Newsletter!!!!!”
Head Of Digital Marketing - EAME
Catalyst provided support in manipulating the Spotfire data, which tracked iPad use in Digital Marketing. Highly effective team with quick response to all issues and always delivered on time and on brief.
Catalyst also developed a patient recruitment tracker for a real world Glaucoma study that very clearly communicated country-level recruitment performances versus target and an overall view of how effectively the project was being driven. Highly valued by the brand team and the medical affairs team, who actually took it on further for use in other studies.
I would throughly recommend Catalyst for work on enabling effective organisational communication and their excellent project management.

If you’re seeking someone to manage your incentives, communication or data needs – look no further!
Bayer and Catalyst worked together in close partnership for over a decade without break. We’d still be working together today, but for a global cost-saving initiative.
So why would I recommend Catalyst? Here’s just a few reasons:
• Unparalleled incentive scheme designs and interactive data and communication tools helping drive our key brand (from pre-launch in 2011) to over £230 million.
• Catalyst developed robust and accurate target setting tools to ensure the Salesforce always had fair and equitable targets to achieve.
• They ran and facilitated all our target setting meetings for the entire period
• Catalyst could advise at the highest level and also knew exactly what it took to motivate everyone – regardless of role. Nor were they afraid of challenging our thinking!
• Catalyst go above and beyond on every aspect of their role – from compelling communications, first-class data management but, above all, in the close friendships they formed with the entire Bayer team to make us as successful as possible. We would have them back in a heartbeat!

I would have no hesitation in working with George and Catalyst again!”
