The Original Social Influencers
August 5, 2019Jon, Q102 Influencer for Gruelle Dempsey Orthodontics
““Radio is a big part of our media mix. The Hubbard team put together an annual campaign utilizing an on-air DJ to endorse our practice. In 2018 we grew in new patients and starts by 15%. It was well worth the investment as it more than paid for itself. We love our partnership with Q102, and are looking forward to another great year.” – Jerrod Dempsey, DMD, MS – Gruelle Dempsey Orthodontics
