Familiarity is a prerequisite for trust. As a medical center, gaining Tampa’s trust is essential to recruiting patients. But how to achieve this? Unfortunately, there are no easy answers. It’s going to take time and money to achieve.
Here in Tampa and St. Petersburg, Florida, building brand awareness is especially challenging. High media density mean that traditional marketing channels — print, newspaper, TV, radio — and internet and social media are completely saturated. Messages are either lost on listeners or overshadowed by your competitors.
If you are experiencing these issues, please consider Adcart’s solution.

Demographic and Geographic Targeting
Supermarkets are community hubs with diverse customer bases. The variety of ages, incomes, and health needs make supermarkets the ideal locations to reach your target patients. From general family care to geriatrics and women’s health, shopping cart advertising enables you to directly message your niche or specialty.
Furthermore, you can control the locations and geographies of where you want to message. Your billboards are seen only in the places that make the most sense for your medical practice, including income and age.
Consequently, while targeting specific demographics, your messages are seen by important head of household decision makers — the wives, husbands, and spouses that make important healthcare choices on behalf of themselves and families. Grocery shoppers are empowered purchasers.
