Marketing can be an imposing word, calling to mind advertising agencies and huge name brands with big marketing teams. But it doesn’t have to be quite as complicated as all that. A good, targeted marketing plan can help improve your practice and get the word out to the community about the top-notch care you provide. How should do that, exactly?

AAHA has got you covered! In this new podcast series by AAHA Press, Marsha Heinke, author of Practice Made Perfect: A Complete Guide to Veterinary Practice Management, discusses common pain points her clients face. One big issue deals with marketing, both to current clients and prospective clients and where and how you should focus your time.

In the fourth and final episode in this podcast series, Marsha discusses the difference between internal and external marketing, how to update your website to attract new clients, and how to use social media to communicate.

If you love the podcast and want more from Marsha, you can buy Practice Made Perfect at the AAHA Store for a deeper dive into strategic planning and setting goals for your practice’s future growth.
