If you want to provide a professional, reliable source of information for your animal-loving audience, then you need to use someone credible to help. By using a veterinarian for your content marketing, your business will benefit from the ultimate expert in animal health, behaviour and well-being.

But where do you start? How will a vet improve things? And how do you get one on board? Luckily, you’ve come to the right place! We’re going to explain how a vet can take your business to the next level and how we can help make that happen.

Why do I need a vet to write my content?

If you run any sort of business in the pet industry, then digital marketing will be key. Digital marketing includes multiple elements, including your website, blogs, social media posts and marketing emails. All these tools are aimed at attracting new customers as well as retaining existing ones, and getting the right help in crafting them is crucial.

Using a qualified vet to write and create online content has multiple advantages for your business including

1. Reliable information

Pet owners are discerning and will look for sources of information they can trust. Having a veterinarian write for you automatically makes your business more credible. Additionally, articles that are written by non-professionals could accidentally mislead or provide poor advice, which could damage your reputation. Use someone you have confidence in.

2. Real experience

Vets have real-world experience that they can draw on when writing your content, adding additional depth. All vets must also do regular continued professional development, which means they are constantly learning and keeping their knowledge up to date.

3. Stand out from the crowd

Using a vet to author your work will set you apart from your competitors, drawing readers away from more generic websites. Most pet owners would prefer to read something written by a qualified vet than a layperson.

4. Improved search engine optimisation

Your search engine optimisation (SEO) improves when you use a qualified professional. Your content will rank higher on search engines like Google when it is well-researched and backed by an expert. This means your business will appear nearer the top of the results list making it more visible to potential customers.

Why choose us?

So, you’ve decided you would like a veterinarian to help with your content marketing, but what next?

While plenty of practising vets do content writing on the side, not all work as part of a wider writing team. Approaching an individual writer can potentially leave you and your business exposed.

At The Veterinary Content Company, we have a body of vets ready to help you and your digital marketing campaigns. This has the following advantages:

A range of vets

Our team consists of a range of vets, with different personal and professional experiences. We can help match the perfect writer to your business. Or we can use a mixture of professionals to collaborate on your projects, depending on your preferences.

A range of interests

Our team has an array of interests and areas of expertise. This allows us to find the right person for the job. While all vets have a broad knowledge of animal health, we can find someone within the team who might have a keen interest or passion for your chosen topic. We also have vets with advanced qualifications, who have carried out additional studies and exams in their chosen field of veterinary medicine.

No loss of output through illness/holiday/maternity leave

When you have access to a team of writers you don’t need to worry about your vet being off sick, away on holiday or taking time out on maternity leave. This means there won’t be any gaps in your content production. Relying on a single, independent writer can leave you exposed to sudden changes.

The ability to take on large projects

We can take on large projects, using multiple vets working together. This collaboration means your content benefits from multiple sources of expertise and self-auditing, producing high-quality work.

Reliable turnaround times

A team of writers ensures reliable turnaround times for our customers. If you have something that requires a tighter deadline, we will also try to accommodate this. Our access to a larger team of writers increases the chances of this happening.

How do I get in touch?

If all of this sounds good to you, then let’s have a chat to discuss your needs and ideas further! We are pleased to offer a free discovery call to all new customers. This allows us to understand your business better and help plan some ways that a veterinarian can help with your content marketing.

To arrange this, we can be contacted in the following ways –
