The age of digital marketing is upon us, and it is a lively one. If you are wondering, “how can my community benefit from digital marketing?”, you may be shocked to learn just how valuable it can be to the senior living industry!
Avoiding Search Engine Optimization Scams
Search engine optimization, or SEO, “is the process of getting traffic from the “free,” “organic,” “editorial,” or “natural” search results on search engines.” This tactic involves creativity, research, and above all else, patience. As SEO continues to grow and search engine algorithms evolve, SEO scammers continue to reach out to businesses promising “fast results and number one rankings.”
Marketing funnels are the different stages that a prospective customer goes through until they reach the final step: conversion. The idea of a marketing funnel is that there are many leads, or potential customers, at the top of the funnel, but much fewer at the bottom. The purpose of the funnel is to narrow down your leads to those who have a high probability of becoming a customer.

As more and more users turn to their smartphones for online interactions, mobile marketing is becoming a more popular and necessary form of marketing. If you look back thirty years ago, our means of advertising were very limited compared to that of today.
