‘’It's hard to find things that won’t sell online’’
~Jeff Bezos
To put the difference simply,
Offline is you searching for your customers while online is both - customers searching for you as well as you branding yourself to potential customers.
Although both are executed through targeted marketing, there is a thin line in between and a huge difference while counting the outcomes. Let us quickly discuss more on this wrt dental marketing.
