Mark/Space has released the newest update of its award-winning synchronization software for Android phone and tablet users, The Missing Sync for Android 2.0. The new version is fully compatible with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), features enhanced video, support for more tablets, a dynamic podcast plug-in, and various fixes and enhancements. The release of 2.0 also means that each purchaser receives three copies for the price of one.

The Missing Sync for Android 2.0 synchronizes Android phone and tablet users’ information, files and media with their PCs or Macs via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB. Busy Android users save precious time because The Missing Sync for Android 2.0 syncs contacts, calendars, notes, tasks, music, video and photos automatically so that they don’t have to manually update their information, files, documents, playlists, photo albums, and more.

We’ve also dramatically enhanced our proprietary automatic wireless Proximity Sync. Everyone knows how tedious and time-consuming it is to manually transfer and update data and files between their Android device and computer. The Missing Sync solves that dilemma. In fact, no other Android sync software automatically and wirelessly synchronizes with both PCs and Macs whenever the Android user’s phone or tablet is within proximity (usually within 30 feet) of their computer. The automatic syncing can be customized based on what sync time intervals are set by the user.  Read Full Article ...

If you ever wondered what the fastest way to lose a referral is, then here it is neglect, said Chhoda. Everyone wants to be appreciated and thats especially true of patients. Sending an occasional letter, card or email isnt enough. To reach the second level connection with patients, personalization is the key.

Acknowledgement

Nitin Chhoda, a physical therapy marketing expert noted that every patient wants to be acknowledged and practice owners that fulfill that need create good will that results in future visits and eager referrals. Consider having a clients name placed on a plaque, mention them in the practice newsletter or social media site, or hold a small get together for patients.

Newsletters are an excellent way to maintain contact with patients and for busy practice owners, Chhoda recommends Therapy Newsletter. The system is a customizable system that can be automated and tailored to the individual practice.

Appreciation

Simple things mean a lot and thats especially true for patients. A phone call, thank-you card or email shows patients that their provider cares, but to reach the second level connection with patients Chhoda said dont forget to personalize the message. Using the clients name at least twice in the communication is essential and including a short message referencing the patients last visit generates a sense of trust thats unmatched.  Read Full Article ...
