As the holidays approach, many of us have our wish lists as well as long shopping lists of gifts to buy for others. If you are at all like me, it can be impossible to keep track of it all unless it is written down somewhere. That’s why our online ordering software on PattersonDental.com is built around shopping lists. This is the most convenient way we could think of to keep track of everything you need for your office and separate out regularly purchased items from “wish list” items. And on PattersonDental.com, 24 months’ worth of your past order history is automatically integrated into your shopping lists so you can see at glance if a product on your list is one you’ve ordered before, and if so, when. Watch the video below to learn how to use shopping lists.
Interactive shopping lists certainly aren’t unique to PattersonDental.com – they are what’s known as a “web convention,” used across many websites – but we’ve tried to uniquely adapt them to best serve our customers’ needs.
The website for your dental office is probably not selling merchandise, but you may want to consider adapting a “web convention” like a simple online information form to allow your patients to request appointments, submit questions to your office or even send you concerns they’d like to discuss with you on their next visit.
