What are common reasons why you might need help from a healthcare marketing company?
People reach out to TBH Creative all the time for a variety of reasons. Some of the things we hear the most frequently from new potential clients include:

That’s great! It’s always wonderful when a hospital or practice gets leads from their existing patients’ recommendations. Still, web content also plays a huge role in decision-making for modern healthcare consumers. Medical marketing campaigns are one way that you can ensure new customers keep making appointments with your doctors and specialists.
Around 80% of U.S. adults have used the internet to make a healthcare-related search in the past year, according to a survey commissioned by Doctors.com. The research findings also revealed that over 60% of all the respondents will choose one healthcare provider over another if the former has a stronger online presence that includes more relevant, accurate, and user-friendly information.
