Of course, the more old-fashioned networking tactics still work. Pam Weakley, a Firstline Editorial Advisory Board member and practice manager at Dickman Road Veterinary Clinic in Battle Creak, Mich., says one of the veterinarians at her practice hosts a local radio show Saturday mornings. It’s a great way to demonstrate his love for pets, educate and engage the community, and create goodwill for the practice, she says. And don’t forget the value of heading out for one-on-one visits in your community with scouting groups or students during school career days.
