Where patients leak
Three leaks we look for in Austin
Unclear insurance and vision plan answers
Many searchers want to know before they call whether you take their vision plan or medical insurance. If the answer is buried, they book where it is stated plainly.
Eyewear and exam demand that goes untracked
Exams, contact lens fittings, dry eye visits and frame sales start in different searches. Without call and booking tracking, it is hard to tell which source produced a booked exam rather than a click.
How it works
Answered, Tracked, Clicked: the first steps in Austin
The full method has six steps. Below are the ones that matter most when starting out in Austin.
Answered
An AI front desk answers calls and chats after hours and during busy stretches, answers common questions and offers open exam times.
Tracked
Each call, form and booking is tied to the keyword, ad or listing that produced it, so spending follows what works.
Clicked
Google Ads aimed at the visits you want more of, such as comprehensive exams, contact lens fittings, pediatric exams and dry eye visits, sent to matching pages.
The whole method is on the optometry marketing page.
