Our plan

What we'd prioritize for a Provo practice

Chosen by fixed rules from the figures above.

  1. Show the practice on social media

    Median age 23.6 (US 38.9). Regular posts showing the team and office are part of our social media plan.

  2. A crowded field for podiatrists

    1.9 times the US number of NPI-registered podiatrists per resident (one per 7,635 residents). A podiatrist here needs a clear focus and real reviews: see our marketing for podiatrists.

  3. Stand out among the dental offices nearby

    Dentist offices make up 24.8% of the private-sector ambulatory health care establishments in Utah County, against 18.5% nationally. A dental practice here needs one thing it is known for. See our dental practice marketing.

  4. Put insurance and payment options up front

    Median household income $64,171 (US $80,734). Plans accepted and financing belong on every page of the website.
