Smaller, independently owned pharmacies often focus their efforts on operational necessities and may consider a website as “nice to have” rather than a necessity. However, a website is an essential, affordable way to increase the overall awareness and profitability of your pharmacy. In fact, an estimated 80% of Americans conduct health care searches online. Plus, most consumers (regardless of the industry) conduct online research before making purchasing decisions. This means members of your community are actively looking for guidance on health conditions and treatments (including vaccines and medications) every day. So, without a website, your pharmacy might not even be on their radar.
A website enables you to easily reach more potential customers and build awareness within your community.
A website can be linked to your Google My Business Profile, which allows you to closely monitor patient satisfaction. You can also leverage positive online reviews to strengthen your reputation in your community.
A website is an effective communication tool. Not only can you reach new customers, but you can better engage with your existing patients as well.
A website is a great way to share information on all your pharmacy has to offer. For example, you can highlight new services, added conveniences, or OTC products. Plus, content can be easily updated as well.
A website enables you to offer your patients a convenient way to refill their prescriptions. Plus, patients can view your hours of operation and obtain health-related guidance when needed.
