Q. Where should I start?
A. While we offer many services, the best “first step” for most healthcare organizations or practices would be to attend one of our 2-Day Strategic Planning Meetings. Before you even attend, we’ll put you through a very thorough “examination process” (business analysis). Then, at the venue we’ll give you a “diagnosis” and “treatment recommendations” (12-Month Marketing Plan). Finally, we will provide you with mountains of “patient education” (training on proven marketing principles) within a small group setting. Everything will be based upon your unique goals, budget, strengths, competitive situation, marketplace, etc. And, your attendance includes up to 4 private consultations.
About two-thirds of attending clients want to work with us in a larger way, either to help them with various creative projects or as a true marketing ally. There’s certainly no pressure either way. For the relationship to move forward we’d have to have a sense of mutual trust and chemistry, and it of course has to make economic sense for both parties. But we are getting ahead of ourselves. The best place for you to start is to get the proper advice, planning and education at our 2-Day Strategic Planning Meeting.
Q. But what if I feel the 2-day meeting doesn’t fit my needs? [ Top » ]
A. As we mentioned earlier, we offer you many programs and services including on-site visits, resort consultations, virtual seminars, marketing CDs, training, professional referral building and advertising agency services. We would be happy to talk with you to understand your needs, and then give you some no-pressure, no obligation recommendations. Call (866) 798-0369 to learn more about how we can help you.

Q. Can marketing help my large group practice? [ Top » ]

Q. I don’t need marketing advice. I just want a brochure (or website, logo, etc.). Can you help me? [ Top » ]
