Your practice should have a plan for community initiatives. This means you should take some interest in your community events, and show support for the goings on in your target area. This ties your practice in with many people, and when it comes time for the public to make a choice in who completes their dental care, this will come into consideration.
If you are struggling to find a way to set yourself apart from the crowd, this is it.
I coach girls soccer at a local high school, here in Salem, Oregon. I have played organized soccer since I was 4 years old, and use this experience in sharing what I know with the youth of today.
Now, I am not suggesting you commit your time to coaching a sport. Some of our clients do take time away to coach little league, or soccer, but you do not have to take time away from your dental practice to show support for your local teams and youth.

When you are rich and famous, only the best tooth whitening techniques will do and most celebrities opt for the more expensive options, which usually means near-instant, as well.
