Who it´s for and when

This service is built for heads of marketing and marketing leads at biotech and life science companies — who need to build a measurable funnel and prove ROI early.


It´s especially relevant when one of these applies:

  • Manual processes and disconnected CRM, email and LinkedIn tools slow you down.

  • Scientific content isn't being turned into marketing leads.

  • You produce content, but it doesn't generate qualified demand.

  • You're not mentioned — or mentioned wrongly — in AI tools.

  • Internal resources are limited and every hour has to count.

It's less suitable if you only want short-term reach without strategy, content substance or a demand goal.


What you achieve:

A measurable funnel, built to scale

The goal isn't “more content.” It's a visibility and demand system that makes your complex offering understandable, builds trust and turns qualified contacts into a measurable funnel — so a small team can prove ROI early and scale what works.

Concretely, you improve: 

  • being found in search and AI systems,

  • the quality of leads instead of vanity reach,

  • the translation of scientific content into demand,

  • automation of manual, disconnected processes,

  • provable marketing contribution to pipeline.

Why vierviertel:

Turning science into demand

Plenty of agencies produce content. Our advantage is that we've specialized in biotech and life science since 1998 — we know how to turn dense scientific content into demand without flattening it, and we speak the language of your buyers in pharma and academia. We don't have to be briefed on why your topic is hard; we start there.
For the head of marketing at a scale-up, that means three things. First, we translate scientific content into a measurable funnel — the exact gap between strong science and qualified leads.

Second, we connect the tactics — search, LinkedIn, email, paid, AI visibility — into one system with clean measurement, so you replace manual, disconnected work with something that scales and proves ROI early. Third, we use AI as a controlled production lever with quality control, so a small team can produce more without losing scientific precision or brand voice. That combination of scientific fluency, integrated demand thinking and controlled AI is what a lean biotech marketing team needs most.

Results from real projects

Found in Google and AI answers

Your buyers research in search, on LinkedIn and increasingly in AI assistants that pre-qualify and recommend vendors. Being invisible there means being off the shortlist. SEO makes you findable; GEO/AEO makes you recommendable — we build content so both come from one architecture.

We ensure this via:

  • clean semantic structure and answerable content modules,

  • structured data that mirrors the visible content,

  • scientifically precise, source-backed content AI systems prefer to cite,

  • consistent core messaging across channels,

  • tracking of rankings and AI citation share.

This makes you visible not only in search but in AI-based answers — as part of solid, helpful work, not an isolated “AI hack”.

Frequently asked questions

How much does this cost?

It depends on your goals, channels and scope. In an initial call we define what you want to achieve and propose a budget that fits – phased if you prefer. 

How do you turn scientific content into leads?

We map your science to your buyers' real questions, build search- and AI-visible content around it, and connect it to campaigns and nurturing so interest becomes qualified demand.

What's the difference between SEO, GEO and AEO?

SEO makes you findable in search; GEO/AEO makes you recommendable in AI answer systems. We optimize for both from one architecture.

Which social media channels do you manage?

In B2B, mainly LinkedIn – for company pages and for the personal profiles of executives and experts. Depending on your audience, we add channels such as [X, YouTube or Instagram]. We choose channels based on where your decision-makers actually are.

Project or retainer?

Both. Campaigns, launches or a content package run as a project with a fixed scope. For continuous demand – content, social media, ads and nurturing – we recommend a monthly retainer. Many clients start with a project and then move to ongoing support. 

How fast are results visible?

Paid delivers short-term; organic and AI visibility build over one to three quarters. No “page 1 in 30 days” promises.

Does AI replace your work?

AI accelerates the work; it doesn't replace the thinking. Strategy, quality control and scientific accuracy stay in expert hands — which is exactly what protects your brand and your claims..

Do you understand our science?

Yes — biotech and life science since 1998. Making dense science clear and credible is our core competence.
