Marketing on the web

Most dentists do not come close to capitalizing on the power of Internet marketing.  As of March 2006, Internet marketing is the most effective form of broadband communication and marketing available.  It creates interest, delivers information and brings customers to your company or organization.  If you are not capitalizing on it, you are missing a large opportunity.  Traditional methods like yellow pages, billboards etc.. are gone.  Your patients today are looking for you on the web, researching prices and learning more about the procedures you offer.  Most importantly, they are probably not going past the first page of Google to do so.  In other words, out of sight out of mind.

Our presenter today spends around $50k a year on Google ad words and generates several millions of dollars in dentistry.  This program is about two things; building a site that entices consumers to you and making that site easily accessible.  Somewhere behind your website must be a concentrated, ever changing site that is committed to answering the needs of the consumer.  If not, the next in line will bring it.  Consumers can access the Internet 24/7 for information.  Will they find you?
