Tips for Success
Success begins with an engaging and complete profile. Make a great first impression and boost your visibility by using these tips for success:
- Fill out the “About Me” section in the personal information section of your account. Your “About Me” section is a great place to list all of your specializations and accomplishments in detail and provides pet owners with a little more information about you so they can determine whether you’re a good fit for their needs.
- Include the types of animals you want to see on Vetster in the “Species Treated” section of your profile. These will be displayed to pet owners when they’re looking to book you on Vetster.
- List all languages you speak when filling out your Vetster profile so that clients can be appropriately matched to you.
- Keep your areas of interest and expertise up to date in the appropriate section of your Vetster profile. Use this checklist to display the types of cases you enjoy seeing.
- Ensure your profile photo is clear, centered, and professional. Choose a clear photo of your face that projects a professional image and also depicts your personality.Wear your lab coat and stethoscope to make your virtual first impression approximate an in-person visit as closely as possible. Upload anin-focus, high-quality profile photo where you’re smiling, dressed professionally, and consider holding a happy patient in your arms.
- Add some variability and flexibility to your availability. 12:00pm to 9:00pm are typically popular hours.
- Revise your minimum booking notice. Some partners only need 15 minutes’ notice to prepare for an appointment, and others prefer to know a couple of hours in advance. Ensure you set your minimum booking notice to suit your schedule so that you have enough time to set up your space and prepare for your appointments.
- Ensure your mobile notifications are turned on so that you receive alerts when you’re booked for appointments on Vetster. Being late or not showing up to appointments may negatively impact your search ranking on the platform.
