What is a Blog and Why do You Need One?

A blog is defined by Wikipedia as “a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video”.

The key to Wiki’s definition is that it is a web site. This is important because a web site becomes an extension of your business that never closes. No matter what time of the day or night, the buyer can access your content at his or her own pace.

How to Distribute Your Content

Traditionally, newspapers, flyers, postcards, yellow pages and newsletters have been the vehicle of choice for most chiropractors. However, most of one’s efforts were based on a hope and a prayer.

How to Know What the Buyer Wants

Now that you understand the power of content, it’s time to put pen to paper. In other words, you need to start developing content that will attract prospects.

We scratched the surface on how this is accomplished in our last post. To recap, you must generate content that is focused toward meeting the wants and desires of the buyer.

How do you accomplish this?

Through keyword searches.

More and more people are turning to the internet to find what they want. More specifically, they are turning to Google, Yahoo and other major search engines to accomplish their goals.

The amazing thing is that these same companies provide the tools necessary to look at what keywords people are searching for. If you know how to use these tools, you can then track down what your buyer wants. Obviously, if you know what your buyer wants, you can start producing content around their wants.

Simply put, understand your buyer and dominate your market.

In our next post, we’ll examine how to distribute your content. In the mean time, additional thoughts or comments are always welcomed in the {comments} section below.

Content is King — Now What?

content_is_kingIn our last post, we established that content is king.

But, if you don’t have content, then your kingdom is without a ruler. And, we all know what type of chaos that can cause!

You see, it’s a buyer’s market. What the buyer wants and desires gets priority.

How does the buyer buy? Continue Reading …

Who's King of Your Office?

Is it you, doctor?

How about your technique?

Maybe it’s your multiple degrees or diplomate status?

In reality, none of the above really matters from the business standpoint. You can be the greatest chiropractor in the world but if you don’t know how to run a business, you won’t be in practice for long. Continue Reading …
