AuDNet, Inc. Launches Membership Campaign for U.S.-Based Audiologists and Hearing Loss Professionals

The Preferred Provider Community is Both a Lead Generation Tool and Value-Added Membership That Offers Benefits for Audiologists Looking for Alternative and Cost-Effective Ways of Marketing Their Practices and Clinics

BURNSVILLE, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AuDNet, Inc., a national audiology network focused on building consumer recognition and demand for audiology professionals, has announced the launch of their Preferred Provider Community (PPC). The PPC is a membership-driven community that offers U.S. based audiologists a streamlined way to reach consumers in search of the best hearing care.

“Many consumers don’t know what audiologists actually do or the first steps to take when hearing loss is a perceived problem”

AuDNet’s ultimate goal is to educate consumers about audiology care and drive them to NowiHear.com, where they can find an audiologist in their local area who will provide the care they truly need and deserve. Audiologists can purchase a yearly PPC membership which automatically adds their clinic or practice to AuDNet’s Audiologist Locater Directory on NowiHear.com.

“Many consumers don’t know what audiologists actually do or the first steps to take when hearing loss is a perceived problem,” remarked Kathy Foltner, Au.D. (Doctor of Audiology), and chief executive officer of AuDNet. “With the PPC, the consumer wins because they can easily find the most highly qualified hearing expert to serve them; and the PPC members win by connecting with new patients.”

Benefits of the PPC membership include:

• A unique opportunity to support AuDNet’s consumer education division which seeks to educate one million Americans about audiology care and provide 10,000 free hearing screenings to consumers by 2011.
• Lead generation through NowiHear.com Google “Ad Word” campaigns.
• Lead generation through national media public relations outreach.
• Highlighted and top level placement on the Audiologist Locater Directory.
• Audiology “brand awareness” through grass roots marketing and promotional efforts.
• Access to better priced hearing aids through the buying division.
• Access to ongoing audiology business and education resources and support.
