• Our Mass Messaging feature is useful when sending messages to more than one client at a time. While it’s wise to use it for closure reminders and pet insurance announcements, you can also use the feature to showcase monthly specials and upsells you’re offering at the clinic.

• Our websites are completely custom, meaning we’ll make yours exactly the way you want it to be. You can have event landing pages, landing pages for influencer partnerships, or custom veterinary digital forms to drop people to the bottom of the funnel directly on your website.

Bottom-of-the-funnel content: sealing the deal with pet parents

The bottom of the funnel is where the magic happens. It’s the enchanting moment when pet owners become loyal clients and brand ambassadors.

• Share compelling client testimonials and case studies to illustrate the outstanding care you provide

• Offer limited-time promotions or discounts to encourage immediate action

• Provide clear calls to action in your content, guiding pet owners to book appointments or request consultations

In this final stage, your objective is to give your audience the gentle nudge they need to choose your veterinary practice for their pets’ health and happiness.

• Your online reviews and local SEO are directly correlated with each other. Google is going all-in on local-focused features in Google Business, which will affect your SEO ranking. Did you know that reviews containing specific keywords are the second most significant factor for determining where a local business appears in map searches? That’s why PetDesk features top testimonials on all our websites’ homepages and a custom reviews page that helps you get even more reviews.

• The wording of your call to action is essential to the success of your veterinary website, paid digital ads, or social media campaign—all of which PetDesk Marketing can do for you. If you use persuasive language, your call-to-action button can encourage users to take action, such as clicking on an ad or making a phone call. We make sure every single page or post has a direct call to action on it.
