Boosting Your Numbers with Appointment Reminders
Let’s face it, patients don’t always show up when they agree to! It’s an inevitable fact that doctor appointments are going to be broken. National Institutes of Health studies reveal that a whopping 42% of medical appointments are skipped out on. When each and every appointment affects your bottom dollar, that number is too high […]
Yelp Says Just Don’t Ask

While it has long been Yelp’s policy to not ask for reviews, until last week they really didn’t do much to fight it off, except filter reviews. They have […]
Google Testing Video Reviews
Until recently, people could only load images to Google Maps. Videos, however, are far more trustworthy in validating social proof of the service and its patrons. Video reviews will be much harder to fake as well. Google video reviews will be held to the same standard as its usual review policies. I would expect […]
