Hey There,
I know you may not know me, but I’m James Erickson, CEO of Erickson Marketing Communications/EMC Dental Marketing.
I’ve been helping dentists just like you build practices for almost a decade now. From large multi practice conglomerates to single dentist practices, I’ve worked with more than 3,000 dentists, generating referrals, finding new patients, and creating loyal fans.
Along the way, i’ve incorporated my marketing education, as well as my background as a former Marine, and my sports marketing experience into the types of strategies I offer to my clients.
(Oh yeah, I also started a restaurant once, PB&J’s. For a short time I specialized in everything peanut butter and jelly. Ask me about it sometime.)
But look, as an entrepreneur and business owner myself, I realize that marketing takes a back seat to many of the other tasks you handle…
I mean, you’re so darn busy hiring, firing, training, presenting cases, caring for your family, paying bills, sending out bills, and so on to focus on developing and creating a consistent and functional marketing program.
That’s why I created EMC Dental Marketing, to provide you with simple to manage, as-hands-free-as-possible marketing programs to keep your practice running smoothly, while you focus on what’s most important… treating your patients with the high quality dentistry you provide.
It’s not all about dental newsletters, postcards, social media, or websites.
It’s about providing you with the most functional, consistent, and profitable programs to help you find patients that pay, stay, and refer their friends.
If you want, feel free to call me at 1-800-311-1390 to talk about your practice, or just the neighborhood scuttlebutt.
Semper Fi,

James Erickson

P.S. #2 If you were looking for a more formal About Us Section, here’s what the “corporate guys” would say:

Based out of Salem, Oregon, EMC Dental Marketing works with dentists all over the United States and Internationally, with one objective in mind: To make sure our clients keep their current patients loyal, and have consistent grow through new patients.
We understand that our business is based solely around the needs of our clients, which is why our highly educated and skilled staff is always just a phone call or an email away, to answer any questions, or hear feedback that may come about. Try it, call us… 1-800-311-1390.
When we are not in constant communication with doctors, we spend countless hours researching and designing fool-proof marketing systems to fit the needs of our current and potential clients. We don’t introduce new programs until we have tested them ourselves!
Along with many other hats, James Erickson, President of EMC Dental Marketing, heads up research and development of new advertising pieces for his clients, and with years of experience in the field, knows that loyal patients are the bread and butter of any successful business, let alone dental practice.
James is always testing new, innovative systems to get doctors communicating with their patients and establishing valuable relationships, because he knows that educated and committed patients are also reliable, treatment accepting, and referring patients.
James also takes the approach that without the constant flow of new patients, even a fruitful practice will wither on the vine, which is why he puts just as much energy and enthusiasm into external marketing programs specifically designed to bring in new, high quality patients, with rapid results.
As we enter yet another new decade, EMC Dental Marketing continues under go strategic transformations in order to stay ahead of current marketing trends, yet stick with plans that have been growing practices all over the World for years, that continue to serve our doctors best.
While EMC Dental Marketing continues to adapt as new marketing technology and advancements are made, the goal of our company remains the same:
To focus solely on the needs of our clients, which include consistent and sustainable growth of practices, and the continuous development successful internal and external dental marketing systems.
