In this week's episode of Physicians Hanging a Shingle we dive into an important step in getting patients in the door of your clinic...social media. I know, I know...hear me out! I had a very successful launch of my practice, largely in part to our social media presence and using Facebook as a marketing tool. In future episodes, we'll get into my entire social media marketing plan, but the first step is letting them know your clinic exists. And that starts with the very first post.

In this episode, I share the steps to my successful Facebook launch. I hope you can implement it in your launch as well and that it will be equally, or even more, successful for you.
