How to use this
Fill in the brackets. Swap each [bracket] for your own detail, then add a photo. Nothing here is a health tip or a treatment claim. You are the expert, so these posts only help people find you, book and arrive easily. Lead with eye exam booking, and mention frames when stock arrives.
Photos of people. Get written consent before posting any photo or video of a patient, and make sure staff are happy to appear. Use first names for thank-you posts only with permission, and never show patient information on a screen or clipboard.
Rules for your profession. Your regulator sets its own rules on testimonials and advertising, and they differ by province and state. Read Health advertising rules clinics before you post a review or an offer, and see /faq/what-are-the-rules-for-asking-patients-for-google-reviews/.
Posting rhythm. Aim for one online profile post a week and two or three posts a week on Instagram and Facebook. Time eyewear arrival posts to real deliveries, and keep exam booking posts in regular rotation. Check any vision plan wording before you post.
