Our plan

What we'd prioritize for a Colorado Springs practice

Chosen by fixed rules from the figures above.

  1. Reviews and your Google Business Profile first

    One NPI-registered dentist per 871 residents in Colorado Springs (US: one per 1,340). We would start with the Google Business Profile and review management.

  2. A crowded field for chiropractors

    2.1 times the US number of NPI-registered chiropractors per resident (one per 1,591 residents). A chiropractor here needs a clear focus and real reviews: see our marketing for chiropractors.

  3. A complete Google Business Profile

    Before anything else, the profile patients see in Colorado Springs map results should be complete and accurate: hours, services, photos and the right categories, with matching directory listings everywhere else.
