Together they launched OptometryMarketing.com after seeing the challenges facing practice owners in this competitive space. Rather than leave owners to work with traditional marketing agencies (many of whom don’t understand the unique needs of optometrists), they wanted to focus their efforts on working with owners who desired more revenue, more freedom, and more flexibility in their business.
