How often should you communicate with your clients?

Should you send regular emails, texts, newsletters, or none of the above?

Do you have an automated marketing system that warms up new prospects, and gets them excited about using your services?

Most pet care facilities have awesome operational, staff training, and canine enrichment systems, but they lack a proven marketing process.

In this week’s packed show, I’m talking to Digital Marketing Expert Josh Hightower about CRM’s (Customer Relationship Management Systems) and Dr. Jen the Vet pops in to talk about how pet care facilities can reassure worried clients about the mystery canine virus.

What both these guests are really talking about is how powerful and effective it is when you send regular, consistent communication to your prospects and clients.

A CRM system with email sequences and multiple follow-up steps can help automate your marketing and turn your website into a working funnel.

And…if you send regular, entertaining emails to your clients that position you as their local canine expert, then they’ll be much more likely to believe what you say about the mystery illness than what they read in the National Enquirer!
