Client Feature Friday
Each Friday, we feature a client who recently launched a new aspect of his or her web presence. Why? So that we can congratulate our valued clients on taking their websites to the next level and to show how we work with our clients to design and execute online marketing plans to fit their unique needs and reach their target audiences.
But, when is the right time to launch a website for your practice? For Tomball, Texas, dentist Dr. Ginger McElravy, the answer was in April of this year — 4 months before her practice, Spring Pearl Dental, opened its doors in early August.
