NOTES FROM THE EDITOR

Think Global, Act Local

I've written about online directories before.

It's a tedious task to list your practice in online directories, especially since there are so many of them.

And yet, without this step, your local SEO will suffer. It means that people in your area won't be able to find you online easily.

Besides that, there will be an additional friction point for those actively looking for a therapist because they'll have to search for more information about you manually.

The problem for many therapists is knowing what information to add to your directory listings.

To help you with that, I'd like to share this short article on "5 Must-Haves for Your Therapy Directory Listing"

And now to the news!

P.S. If you're looking for help filling your private pay caseload - this might be for you. I have 1 remaining spot for my High-Impact Marketing Coaching in June. Reply "Interested", and I'll send the details. First come, first served.
