Quarterly KOL Engagements
A structured quarterly rhythm with the clinicians whose opinions move your product: disciplined agendas, captured insights, and visible follow-through.
Overview
KOL relationships drift when they live in calendar invites. Real influence comes from a rhythm, predictable touchpoints with a focused agenda that respects the clinician's time and produces something they can point to.
We run that rhythm. Each quarter, every named KOL gets a structured engagement with a pre-circulated agenda, a captured insight log, and a public follow-through on every commitment we made the last quarter.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many KOLs is realistic to engage quarterly?
Most companies sustain a tier-1 register of 8-15 KOLs at quarterly cadence. Tier-2 (20-40 KOLs) drops to semi-annual.
Do KOLs get paid?
Per your policy. We handle the contracting and disclosures (Sunshine Act / Open Payments) within your existing framework.
Can KOLs see each other's input?
Never. Each KOL relationship is bilateral and confidential. Cross-cutting themes are anonymized in your internal roll-ups.
How do you handle competitive KOLs?
We work to your firewall policy. Most companies maintain a tier of KOLs who also work with competitors, the engagement scope adapts accordingly.
