Internet success: Coeur d'Alene Counseling
It is time to once again devote this space to a question and answer session with successful local people who have used the Internet, or in this case, Internet marketing, to build their business.
This week we had the pleasure of sitting down with Ed Dudding from Coeur d'Alene Counseling, Inc.
When and how did your business start?
I left my previous position as an associate counselor to open my own practice, Coeur d'Alene Counseling, full-time in 2010 in downtown Coeur d'Alene.
Have you worked with other digital marketing companies? How helpful were they?
I knew I needed a website and SEO, although I didn't know what SEO (Search Engine Optimization) meant at the time, so I hired a guy who built a site and optimized it for SEO and it worked! Calls started coming and I was getting clients and my practice grew really fast. In our industry, 9 out of 10 therapists from other practices work on referrals through other physicians, other therapists, churches, etc. to build those relationships. Without Internet marketing I wouldn't have been able to build my business.
What prompted you to begin working with Cd'A Press Digital and how long have you been a client?
I read Jacob's (Myong) article on SEO and I took a chance and gave him a call. I had been working with someone previously who was very difficult to get ahold of and I was getting frustrated so I decided to try working with someone locally. Jacob is very easy to get ahold of and he's knowledgeable which gave me the confidence to switch to Cd'A Press Digital. Overall I really feel like you guys are helping me as a business partner to carry out my business plan.
How much of an impact has Cd'A Press Digital had on your overall growth and continued success?
I cannot have a practice without digital marketing. As I continue to grow my practice, I depend on Internet marketing. Ninety percent of my business comes from the Internet.
