Google+ Primer for Dentists Hangout on Air #1

September 14, 2014 by Charles Payet

An Introduction to Dr. Charles Payet and Google+

I started on Google+ in the beta stage and was one of the first dentists to have a Brand Page. Google+ is my favorite social media platform, and during this Google Hangout On Air Series we will be covering the basics of how Google+ is different from other platforms, and why you need to be different here and what can you expect for your practice, and over what time. Through this series, my goal is to give the viewers and fellow Dentists a deeper understanding of Google+ and a solid foundation to get started on the platform.

Each week will feature a different Google+ expert [Sept 6th – Nov 8th].  For the full line up, please go here ➤http://bit.ly/GPlusLineUp

Dental Social Media Marketing

The Biggest Social Media Marketing Event in Dental History

G+ Primer for Dentists HOA series

Seriously, this is no exaggeration!  I am so pumped up about this, it’s simply incredible. What began as an innocent question, posed to a FB dental marketing group, has morphed into a star-studded line-up of Google+ expertise, the likes of which has never been assembled in dental marketing before.  I have spent the last 8 months (starting in early 2014) learning from this gang, and what a difference it has made.  From the bare basics, through an introduction to advanced ROI tracking, coaching on networking, web apps to boost your engagement in ways you can’t even imagine yet (these are tools used by Fortune 500 companies), to the future of Semantic Search, Influence Marketing, and Content, it’s all here.

My Guests

With no further ado, let me introduce you to this line-up:

Dr. Charles Payet (me) on Sat. Sept. 6th

I started on Google+ in the beta stage and was one of the first dentists to get a Brand Page.  It took some time and lots of learning, but I’m now just under 6,000 Followers of my Profile and have grown my Page’s Followers from 132 to 450 in just 5 months.  No doubt about it, Google+ is my favorite social media platform, and I’m going to show you why, as well as cover some of the basics of how G+ is different from other platforms, and why you need to be different here.  What can you expect her for your practice, and over what time?  What shouldn’t you expect?  All that jazz, so that when my Guests dive in deeper, you’ll have a foundation.
