    • Elevate your Web presence as well as the entire electrology profession, just by becoming a member! It is all done for you when you join.

      • The premise of this new approach is to focus on the individual member and the specific market where they practice to attract new clients for that particular electrologist. The increased flow of Internet information for individual electrolysis practices will elevate our online presence for the purposes of searching sources of permanent hair removal. These new clients will also spread the word to their friends and family members, generating even more clients.

      • Confirm each member’s contact information for marketing purposes.

      • Create a Facebook Business page, if the member does not already have one.

      • All members’ Facebook Business pages will benefit from automatic posts generated by the Presence Team with absolutely no effort on your part.

    • This will create recognition for the profession by using social media.

      • Confirm and correct/create (as needed) listings on Google Local, Plus/Maps, Yahoo Local, and Bing Local for each electrolysis practice.

        • Locate and correct, where possible, additional listings such as Yelp.

        • Customize mailers and interface with a print-to-mail service to expedite local mailings (if desired) and/or create individualized press releases and submit them to local news outlets, such as Patch (if desired and appropriate).

        • Take advantage of related opportunities as they present themselves such as the well-received photo project by the Presence Team.

        • Create a Facebook app which automates sharing of any item posted to the AEA Public group to all opted-in member Facebook business pages.

        • Actively seek additional opportunities for AEA Members to take advantage of emerging cost-effective local marketing opportunities.
