What's included in Digital Herder SWOT Analysis?

​

  • Marketing Effectiveness, SEO, SEM, PPC and Brand Analysis

  • Marketing Overhaul Analysis - what it would take to be competitive and the costs associated with overhaul

  • Reputation of brand and key stakeholders (staff, doctors, etc) - one of the most critical pieces of information almost always in the way of success.

  • Reputation Overhaul Analysis - what it would take to fix the reputation of key stakeholders

  • Competitive Research & Market Opportunity

  • Competitors' weaknesses in marketing (real-time and historical up to 3 months back)

  • Review of actual competitors and estimate of their actual spend on advertising  (real-time and historical up to 30 days back)

  • Business Visibility & Location Overview based on actual market opportunity data. Sometimes, the location of a business in a specific building can spell disaster or increase the difficulty in Geo-Targeted marketing. For example, if a practice (business) is located in an office building where there are direct competitors, the Geo-Targeted marketing would in fact be compromised. Google likes to see original products and services at exclusive locations. In some circumstances, literal relocation of the office to the neighboring office building is necessary, but could be a very expensive venture.

  • Marketability to specific neighborhood or cultural diversity groups

  • Branding Effectiveness

  • Recognition for Expertise and expertise overhaul. For example, if there are a group of doctors, we'd devise a strategy plan to help each one of the physicians gain reputation for specific expertise in treatment algorithms, procedures, surgeries, etc.

  • Gaps in Service Areas

  • Technology Capabilities

  • Definition of services (or products)

  • Revenue Streams & Potential Revenue Boosts
