Weave provides the phones to your office. $349\/month buys you unlimited local and long-distance calling, as many lines as you want, as many messages as you want to record, and music on hold. No contract\u2013you can simply return the hardware and cancel at any time. And there is still a 60 day money back guarantee for first time users. Here is what is new.<\/p>\n<p>1. The telephones have been improved and are now the best you can buy anywhere &#8211; providing outstanding clarity and fidelity. These new telephones contain an internal 1 gig processor. So the phones do the processing and not the computer, which means you don&#8217;t drain the capacity of the office Internet speed.<\/p>\n<p>2. You now have the opportunity\u2013for training purposes\u2013to record both inbound and outbound telephone calls.<\/p>\n<p>3. Weave now provides call tracking for all missed telephone calls.<\/p>\n<p>4. There is a new Weave mobile app. This allows the doctor to see the appointment schedule remotely from a cell phone. \u00a0It also allows you to communicate with your patient in a novel way. Even though you physically call from your personal cell phone, it looks to the patient that the call is coming from the phone number of the practice. The same application applies to texting.<\/p>\n<p>5. In the last year, the company has grown from 60 employees to 125, with significant improvement in customer service and technical support.<\/p>\n<p>We all know how challenging it is to get a patient to leave a review\u2013even after they have promised. Demand Force, Patient Activator, Lighthouse 360 and Revenue Well all have programs to solicit reviews, but these are known as &#8220;third party reviews&#8221; that are hosted on a micro-site controlled by these companies. While these reviews are helpful, they are nowhere near as visible or carry as much weight as a &#8220;direct review&#8221;. Those are the reviews posted on places like Google, or Facebook or Yelp.<\/p>\n<p>I am thus most excited about a new Weave service called the Review App. This is not included in the standard monthly fee. It costs an additional $100\/month. Frankly\u2013for the results it generates\u2013I would pay four or five times that amount! After a patient leaves the office following treatment, they receive a text message asking if\u2013based on their experience\u2013they would feel comfortable referring a patient to the practice. If the answer is yes\u2013and if they have a Gmail account\u2013they are automatically taken to your Google Place Page where they are asked to leave a review. If they do not have a Gmail account, they are automatically linked to the Yelp or Facebook Page of the practice where they are again prompted to leave a review. The entire process is automated and very clever. And the results are fabulous.<\/p>\n<p>Since today it is estimated that 70% of all reviews come from a mobile device, this new Weave app is particularly effective.
