A Cooperative Marketing Company for Independent Eyecare Professionals
|
What is LifeStyle Eyecare Centers?
LifeStyle Eyecare Centers is a cooperative marketing program aimed at assisting the Independent Eyecare Professional in marketing, branding and growing a successful practice. Our goal is to provide you with the tools and resources that are available to large chains and franchises without the expensive costs or commitments. The simple concept of LifeStyle Eyecare Centers is to assist you in fitting your patients with the frames and lenses to meet each LifeStyle activity they engage in their everyday lives, from hiking to cycling, computer work to hobbies.
Do I need to change my practice and lose my identity?
You do not have to change any aspect of your eyecare center because LifeStyle Eyecare Centers is a cooperative marketing service. You can use as many or as few services as you would like. You only use what works for your eyecare center. However, branding your eyecare center can be helpful since LifeStyle Eyecare Centers does advertise online and by direct mail.
How will LifeStyles benefit my business?
To help you sell additional frames and upgraded lenses we will offer a series of turn-key marketing campaigns supported with Point of Purchase (POP) material. Investing in LifeStyle Eyecare Centers will improve business profitability and effectively grow your eyecare center for pennies on the dollar. Our marketing campaigns cost approximately $200 and can be used many times over, allowing you to reduce the cost of each campaign even further. Just think of how many patients it will take to break even… Just ONE! Every patient after that is pure profit.
