Where patients leak

Common gaps in Kansas City optometry marketing

  • 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.

  • 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.

How it works

Booked, Tracked, Found: the first steps in Kansas City

Every step is measured, so we can show where Kansas City patients are found, lost or booked. These are the steps we would put first.

  • Booked

    The exam lands on your calendar, is confirmed by text and is reminded before the visit.

  • Tracked

    Each call, form and booking is tied to the keyword, ad or listing that produced it, so spending follows what works.

  • Found

    Local SEO for your city and neighborhoods, a complete Google Business Profile with accurate hours and services, and consistent listings so you appear for eye exam searches near the patient.

The whole method is on the optometry marketing page.

Fit

When we are, and are not, the right partner

A good fit

  • You have exam-chair time to fill and can take more patients

Probably not a fit
