How Writing Attracts Clients  

  1. Create a set of topics (categories) for the blog that match what you want your clinic to be known for in the community.
  2. Understand the problems and questions of your ideal clients and be sure each blog post answers one of these. Focus on your audience, not your business.
  3. Have each member of the team create unique content highlighting their specialty, experience, and discipline.
  4. Put one team member in charge of keeping a regular blogging schedule, or hire an outside expert to manage the process.
  5. Promote each post widely on social media and through email, both from the company accounts and each team member’s personal networks.
