Marketing within the healthcare industry is...tricky. How can you present your business and bring in critical sales without coming across as too business-like and promotional. People don’t want to think of their healthcare services as a brand; they want to know their concerns are being met by real doctors and specialists. This week, I had Wendy O’Donovan Phillips on to talk about how to responsibly, ethically, and profitably advertise your healthcare services.
Wendy O’Donovan Phillips is CEO of Big Buzz, an agency delivering strategy and consultation to drive focused marketing efforts for executives and teams nationwide. Wendy is the author of two books available on Amazon, and she has been published in many healthcare journals. She is a member of the Women's President Organization, having reached $1 million in revenues the last two years, which only 1% of women-owned businesses achieve. She has been honored by the American Marketing Association for excellence in her field, and she has been hired by the American Dental Association as an expert consultant in marketing.

When inspiration strikes, it strikes! Have you ever thought about incorporating animation in your marketing strategies, to tell eye-catching stories that audiences will respond to? It’s effective, but there’s a time and a place, and doing poorly can cost you money and your audience. In this episode, I sit down with Alex Herder of Duck & Duck to talk about when the time is right to pull off animation.
Alex started the animation studio Duke & Duck back in 2009 with his best friend Dave and since then they've been creating compelling content for non-profits, brands, and anyone else who shares their passion for telling good stories.
