Available sampling method was used and finally, 72 analyzable questionnaires were obtained. The collected data were analyzed using Variance-Based Structural Equation Modeling.
Results: The most important findings of the research indicated that there was a significant positive relationship between marketing innovation and market performance in pharmaceutical industry (β=0.840, t=14.768). Otherwise, the data showed that a decrease in marketing innovation could ultimately lead to pharmaceutical brands performance decline in the market. Also, goodness of fit index equal to 0.74 indicated that the relationship was desirable and R squared equal to 0.705 indicated that 70.5 percent of the variance for market performance variable was explained by innovation marketing variable.
