Small Business Marketing Strategies That Will Help You Sleep Better

A sound sleep product

The team at Sleep Connect, Inc. has created something great, a revolutionary cloud-based technology that is changing the way dentists and other physicians track their patients. More specifically, the way they track their treatment of patients with sleep apnea, through the use of oral sleep apnea devices.

Tracking the progress of your product with Sleep Connect, Inc.

The clinical definition of sleep apnea is a “potentially serious sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts.” While there are three main types of sleep apnea, obstructive sleep apnea is the most common, many times treated with cumbersome devices known as CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) machines. There are, however, more suitable alternatives, and oftentimes, treatment for sleep apnea other than CPAP is possible, with a sleep apnea mouthpiece provided by your dentist.

The idea behind Sleep Connect is to screen, diagnose, and closely monitor the progress of this product in dental patients, with an easy-to-use software system that offers health records, data forms, and aggregated reports. This state-of-the-art digital tool does not require installation, and can be accessed anytime, from anywhere, with your login information – inputted at the time of purchase.

The flawless traditions of tangible marketing for small businesses

Not only are effective marketing strategies useful in gaining new prospects, but they will also help to build lasting relationships. While digital advertising techniques like social media and email marketing can be successful, there is a genuine and personal quality that comes with a well-made business card and a physical brochure.

People want to feel connected to those they do business with – the art of a smile, a handshake, and a card in the mail is not dead, in fact, it is more important now than ever, in this technical world. These types of simple details, paired with well-timed follow-ups in the form of classy personalized ‘thank you’ cards, seasonal greetings, and birthday wishes will not only help you to gain clients, it will help you to keep them.
