Timeline

March – August 2020

01 — The Challenge

Trusted by clinics, quiet online

Since the early 1980s, Magne-tec has supplied healthcare providers with advanced therapy devices, from lasers to shockwave technology, for podiatry, physical therapy, chiropractic, pain management and medical spas.

Its reputation was built through relationships with clinics, but its digital presence did little to tell that story. Magne-tec wanted to use digital media to raise awareness of the technologies it distributes and reach the decision makers who buy them.

02 — The Approach

Build the brand, then let clinics tell the story

Reach set the brand foundations and a strategy for every platform, then ran content and community for both Magne-tec and its owner, Serge Amar, and built a program that turned the clinics using Magne-tec’s technology into ambassadors.
