How targeted is your marketing company? Can they directly target people if they visit X website? My marketing company seems kind of lazy in this regard, more of a set it and forget it mentality. Want to see if there are more proactive agencies or whether my expectations are too high.

I don’t know the answer to your specific question, but I’ve found that marketing companies often over-promise and under-deliver.

There are good ones out there, although they can be tricky to find. The one I’m using charges me for each qualified lead they send me. So they’ve got an incentive not to be lazy — the fewer leads they generate, the less I pay them.

That’s a much better way to arrange it. What’s your practice area?

Hi all! After graduating with my MBA with a focus in project management, I moved organizations to go from an EMR education manager to a full time project manager specializing in EMR implementation projects. I’ve found that although I enjoy the work- changing organizations and roles in a remote world was harder than I anticipated. I want to be great at my job and I think connecting with others that have gone through similar things could help.
