041: Fine Tune Your Patient Welcome Email Series
April 20, 2021
Having a series of welcome emails for your new patients is one of the most important things you can do in your practice. These emails serve to warm your patients up to who you are, help them get to know more about your practice, and keep them engaged so they want to continue working with you!
Why is this so important? From your patient’s perspective, working with a new healthcare provider can be daunting, especially in the functional medicine space. Patients often have questions and they may not know much about you, your practice – or what they need to do to function at a higher level.
Today, I’m going to walk you through the basics of creating your own welcome email series. You’ll learn what makes these types of emails so valuable, how to use them to build loyalty and trust, and ensure that your new patient feels confident in their decision to work with you.
