When you're in the market for new practice management and EHR software there are a wide variety of questions you'll have when talking with different vendors. You'll want to know about the technology the software is built on, specific functionality features, costs, and integrated tools.

Something that can be critical to the success of a new software in your practice is the implementation, training, and support processes by the vendor. So it's crucial not to ignore these important questions during your EHR software buying journey.

We wrote a post talking about fresh ideas for patient gifts/freebies that your practice can hand out to new patients, loyal patients, or even every patient who walks through your door. Everyone loves to get something for free, so why not make it even better and make it something memorable? A few ideas that we talked about in that article were:

• Teaming up with another local business, like a local candy shop, to create a unique treat for your patients that could have your logo on the candy or packaging
• Drink chip to a local brewery
• Something seasonal, like Halloween or Valentine's Day gifts
• Fresh flowers

Today, we'll share some optical resources about some of the benefits your practice can gain from handing out freebies, or offering free discounts or free add on items with product purchases. 

Over the years, we've worked hard to provide a variety of useful resources for everyone in your eyecare practice to take advantage of and learn something new from.
