My first exposure to Social Media was in September of 2014. I spent 3 days at a seminar hosted by MGE, which was delivered by VIP LLC & Social Connect, Learning How Social Media PR & Marketing Can Improve Your Business. Well, that was all I needed!!! I immediately signed up for the Social Media Makeover + Management Package with Social Connect at the helm and they have been creating and running my entire social media network ever since. This includes Facebook, Google Plus, Instagram and Twitter with both personal and business accounts.

Statistically, the following is now a reality: When I started in December 2014 I had about 11,000 total clicks or views on my Google Plus page. I checked this morning (just five months later) and I now have over 100,000 views! Utilizing this brilliant system of PR & Marketing and Social Media posts, Social Connect has officially put me on the First Page of Google organic search results for “Dentist NYC”!!! [Organic search results are listings on search engine results pages that appear because of their relevance to the search terms, as opposed to them being advertisements. In contrast, non-organic search results may include pay-per-click advertising].

Furthermore, now a THIRD of my new patients come in from Google and online searches. NYC is the most concentrated area for dentists in the states, so achieving results like this is quite hard, especially in such a short time. The owner of Social Connect, Batya Maman, often says she BUILDS PEOPLE ONLINE AND GIVES THEM PRESENCE. She is dedicated and amazing at what she does; Batya is results-oriented!

What does this mean to us Dentists? Most of us spend a lot of money on SEO (search engine optimization) and we‘re still not placed on the first page of Google. Now, with this amazing “social media machine”, what was once just a dream has in fact now come true.

I strongly recommend every dentist comes to this seminar to see for themselves how this can truly help them the way it’s helped me!
