Good marketing means staying on top of the details.
Healthcare technology companies devote the bulk of their energy to writing awesome code. They understand that code must constantly be reviewed, improved and re-worked as features are added and changed.
The same applies to marketing.
You can’t just build your website and forget about it. You surely can’t just build a pay-per-click campaign and forget about it.
Just like your code, it all needs tending. You need to look at your data and make sure you are getting the results you are looking for.
When I work with a healthcare vendor, marketing audits are usually the first step I take. They provide a definitive view of your marketing and help you see where your adjustments will have the most impact.
