We were lucky enough to chat with our friend, Michael Arias, better known as The Dental Marketer.
Vanessa and Michael (and G.O.S.T!) discuss ground marketing, how to target local businesses, and how you and your employees can get the most out of just a little budget.
If you have a Starbucks, a hotel, an apartment complex, or even a gym near you, you’ll want to listen in to gain valuable insights on how to attract their employees and clients to your practice.
In this episode, Michael Arias, Vanessa, and G.O.S.T. discuss:

The importance of interaction and engagement - it gets patients, guaranteed, whereas traditional marketing can leave you vaguely hoping that it will work
Ground marketing can be done anywhere
Persistence is key.
Go ground marketing at places where you will be able to find your target market
What to look for in a dedicated Ground Marketer
