Demand Force Works Wonders

Four to five years ago, I became very actively involved with my clients in helping them to develop and design websites. It was at that time that I began to recognize the power of the Internet and the magic of search engine optimization to direct potential patients to a dental practice. It was about two years later that I began recommending Demand Force to my clients as an alternative to telephone confirmation of scheduled appointments, because e-mail confirmation or texting to a cell phone seemed like such an innovative idea, and a great time saver for front desk staff.

I am writing today, however,  to report on a benefit that I never originally thought about or realized – and that is the amazing power of Demand Force patient reviews to improve Google rankings. I have referred over 40 clients to Demand Force, and without exception, every single one of them – after having Demand Force in operation for six months –  is in the top three positions on the local Google business map for their geographical area. This has happened in small towns and large cities.

I believe these exceptional results happen because of the special relationship that Demand Force has forged with Google. Google has always been synonymous with relevance, and what could be more relevant than patient reviews that come from actual customers. It is probably not coincidental that both companies are located in Silicon Valley. I also think that Demand Force does an impressive job of  syndicating these patient reviews to about 145 popular and visited sites on the Internet that are also referenced by Google.

Demand Force patient reviews can be continuously streamed to your website and to your Facebook page. Your webmaster can easily set this up for you.

In this “wild wild west” of the Internet–where your online reputation is always potentially fragile and at risk–it is something of a comfort that Demand Force gives business owners the ability to read and respond to all customer reviews from one dashboard before they are published.

There are many companies that can do automated confirmation emails and texting. They can also help with re-activation and do email blasts and customized newsletters. But none of them, in my opinion, can hold a candle to Demand Force when it comes to utilizing positive patient reviews to create high positioning on local search engines. Do yourself a favor and discover this fabulous resource.
