Dental Social Marketing: 3 Steps To Giving Back And Sharing Your Story
A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO, it was Giving Tuesday. Here at My Social Practice, every business morning we are on the lookout for awesome dental social media ideas. When we find something awesome we send it out to our clients. it’s part of our complete dental social media marketing service. A recent find was a Facebook post idea/graphic.
On Giving Tuesday we sent our clients two versions of this artwork (see inset image). The first version was for their Facebook page and Instagram account. The second version was designed to be printed and to write down a way the practice “gives back”—then, we suggested taking a photo for posting on their Facebook pages.
