Quick Read
Like many service professionals, Dr. Helaine Smith, DMD, is more than a dentist. She's also a small-business owner who must attend to more than continuing-education credits—including her own marketing and promotion—if she is to keep her business going and growing.
And like most small businesses, particularly those in the medical field, credibility is key. So, not long ago, Smith made it her personal mission to establish herself as a dental authority in the public eye.
Some might think that jumping on the "sex sells" bandwagon may not be the best way to go about that. Smith is living proof, however, that if approached the right way in conjunction with other awareness-generating tactics such as effective search-engine optimization (SEO), sex can be the tantalizing introduction that gets people to listen up and take notice.

Sex, violence, and humor have been a marketers friend since the beginning of time. Audience engagement is in most cases directly proportional to jolts per second. Use it where applicable. Nice work, Dr. Smith...
excellent tips on different approaches to marketing. I like the tips on metatags for your pictures. The ebook idea is obviously very effective.
