OUR BIG BET

External analgesics
The U.S. external analgesics market is currently valued at more than $2.4 billion, and is expected to skyrocket to $6.5 billion by 2030, driven by an increasing incidence of chronic diseases and disorders, pressure for shorter hospital stays, and lingering industry disruptions and transformations due to the pandemic. Manufacturers and distributors of hot/cold products, kinesiology tape, heating pads, TENS devices, and red light therapy products/infrared therapy products will all benefit from the growth in this sector.

HLS/RCG EXPERTISE

Got what you need
We’ve noticed that many HLS prospects are also trying to solve business problems more typical of businesses in the RCG space (i.e. supplements, nutraceuticals, specialty pharma, etc.). FSM is the Swiss Army Knife of Salesforce consultants, and we have the experience to help you speak the language of businesses that have both healthcare and retail/consumer goods needs.
We have a deep bench of talent with expertise in a wide range of industries and Salesforce products, including Health Cloud, Consumer Goods Cloud, and more. We can help determine the best product mix when prospects fall outside your typical client profile. Bring us in on your next deal and we will help you get it to the finish line.

No matter what product or service your client provides and no matter what their technology needs are, we’ve got the expertise they need to make the most of their CRM solution and grow their business.
