Monthly Marketing Update
- February 2021

During COVID times, my team and I have had to shift how we market and “sell”, as I am sure you have. We are not able to meet in person and everyone has some zoom fatigue. We are working harder to get the same results, and the only upside is less drive time. It has made me wonder- Is it actually more difficult or just unfamiliar? To that end, we are embracing new marketing ideas to help our sponsors’ visibility. This month Retirement Connection and CareAvailability.com are adding social media and google advertising to our efforts.

We have always relied heavily on word of mouth and organic search results, but with more families and providers working remote and relying so heavily on computer connection, we felt this was the perfect time to explore these options. CareAvailability.com has been embraced by the Samaritan Hospital system, but we want to see a jump in family users searching for care and housing. We also want to promote the great providers from Retirement Connection. Social Media is NOT my forte, so I have hired a local company, Greatness Digital, to help us achieve our goals- their team will join us on our next Sponsor Breakfast call on March 18th, save the date!

Nuggets of Knowledge

 

"You drown not by falling into a river, but by staying submerged in it.”- Paul Coelho

I had hoped to swim out of the 2020 funk like an Olympic swimmer when the calendar flipped to a new year, but I may need to just “tread water”. This is still better than drowning! We need to give ourselves and others a bit of grace, and take pride in the times we just tread water- it is better than the alternative. As Dory in Finding Nemo tells us… Just keep swimming!
