Grow Your Eye Care Practice: High Impact Pearls from the Marketing Experts
Autor Ming Wangen Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 noi 2020
With an increase in patients undergoing elective procedures and an increase in the amount of providers, marketing has become the most important way for eye care professionals to grow their practices and differentiate themselves from their competition. Since marketing is not addressed in any formal course in medical school, optometry school, residency or fellowship, many eye care professionals lack basic understanding and skills in this area of growing importance to their businesses.
To meet this critical need, editor Dr. Ming Wang and associate editors Shareef Mahdavi, Michael Malley and Dr. Tracy Swartz have created this essential, timely handbook aggregating the key ophthalmic marketing pearls, teachings and experiences of some of the leading national and international marketing experts.
Grow Your Eye Care Practice begins with an overview of the history and current state of ophthalmic marketing, including a fascinating look at the commoditization of eye care as was demonstrated with the introduction of LASIK. The core chapters address foundational and innovative marketing concepts and their application to eye care, including:
- Market research, segmentation, targeting and positioning
- Patient experience
- Branding versus call to action
- Word of mouth referrals
- Digital marketing, including social media, websites and SEO
- Innovative marketing approaches
- Ethics and laws governing medical marketing
- Upcoming disruptive marketing technologies
