Who Calls Me From This Number - MD247.COM

Tampa Florida (PRWEB) July 26, 2012

MD247.COM Founder Thomas Meehan announced that the provider of supplemental telemedicine services was kicking-off an initiative to improve its visibility with sites like “who calls me from this number.”

Every person reading this has received a phone call from an unknown telephone number, a blocked telephone number or an unwanted telephone number and found that they were filled with a sense of insatiable curiosity. Working in a telemarketing setting, selling supplemental telemedicine services, MD247.COM reviews situations like this quite frequently in an effort to prevent curiosity from leading to situations in which the field appears to be a ripoff.

Meehan explained that MD247.COM transparency will be improved through the consistent creation of content for the MD247.COM Reviews website, the MD247.COM Scam website and the traditional MD247.COM website. All potential telemedicine program members receiving a call from MD247.COM are encouraged to submit questions as well as reviews to all of the associated websites.

The end goal of the MD247.COM “improved visibility” initiative is to reduce the number of people who view telemedicine as a ripoff requiring a person to become a scam informer.

MD247.COM Reviews Social Media Strategy

 

Tampa Florida (PRWEB) July 25, 2012

In an unusual statement to the press, Thomas Meehan explained that the members of his “talk to a doctor” telemedicine staff have charted a new direction for all social media and blogs for the service provider. One of the first social media accounts to be affected by the change is the MD247.COM blog tool Blog.com.

Meehan explained that the shifts in approach have been a practice on the MD247.COM social media accounts since the beginning. Finding a voice in and amongst the 5,000 “web based fix me now” doctor sites is a difficult task and, in order to step out of the shadow, Meehan made the unprecedented move of changing the social media approach to one which incorporates more of what people want . This translates to MD247.COM existing as one of a select few Blog.com accounts encouraging real open discussion regarding current political and economic topics.

The MD247 Social Media Curator has been given the authority to allow polite discussion of topics like national healthcare; the election and the realities of national unemployment rates. She advised that conservatives, liberals, independents, libertarians and all other interested individuals are welcome to conduct polite discussion. The MD247 Blog.com account can be located at http://md247.blog.com/.

When the team behind MD247.COM reviews results in ninety days, they predict that there will be fewer incidents in which a scam informer claims MD247.COM requires a ripoff report.

Customer Service Like Wal-Mart

Tampa Florida (PRWEB) July 25, 2012

“The goal as a company is to have customer service that is not just the best but legendary.”

~ Sam Walton

It is atypical for a company to directly correlate links between itself and a large retail merchant like Wal-Mart, but recent MD247.COM reviews forced the telemedicine company to do as such.

On July 24, 2012 MD247.COM Founder Thomas Meehan announced that the provider of supplemental telemedicine healthcare services would be embarking on a journey to transform its customer care into something rather epic in scope. The end goal is to alter and modify MD247.COM customer service as much as possible, in order to make it into the telemedicine equivalent of the “customer is always right” policies that all patrons of Wal-Mart expect.

The amendment to current customer service policies was the result of recent MD247.COM reviews on websites like Ripoff Report, Scam Informer and Scam Book. In order to give customers an option that goes beyond the consumer protection website, and give these same members the opportunity for real first-person service, MD247.COM created two new customer care oriented websites specifically designed for education and MD247.COM reviews. Additional information about the sites entitled “MD247.COM Scam” and “MD247.COM Reviews” can be found by visiting the original MD247.COM telemedicine website.

In addition to the addition of two customer care websites, MD247.COM reviews have led to voluntary customer care oriented changes internally at the MD247.COM headquarters.

MD247.COM Scam Website Discusses Validity Of Telemedicine

 We'd like to "introduce" you to the launch of our new MD247.COM scam discussion website, which was designed as a resource for consumers to ask if telemedicine is a "scam" and to learn more about the field of telemedicine.  Take a look at the welcome text, and please be sure to post your questions as soon as the site is live!

= = = =

 

Every online business has had the displeasure of dealing with the abundance of “consumer protection” websites, as well as the legitimate product and business review websites. Each website has its own set of rules regarding the ability of the reviewers to anonymously report the positives and negatives about both products, and experiences with physical businesses. All “consumer protection” sites, as well as even legitimate review sites, prevent business owners from positively resolving consumer concerns without a heavy ransom.

Rather than simply pay $7,000.00 to a “scam” report website, for the removal of customer inquiries, MD247.COM developed a website for concerned consumers to submit directly to MD247.COM scam questions regarding the validity of telemedicine. The site is intended to give real people the opportunity to get a real response regarding their questions, and kick the predatory practices of sites like Ripoff Report; Scam Informer and Scam Book in the seat of their pants.

Check back frequently, because we will soon be launching the software which will let you post your “is this a scam” style questions and you will be able to read our simple health tips too!

Online businesses are used abundantly by review websites across the internet. Each site has its own unique set of rules regarding the ability of reviewers to anonymously post regarding both products and experiences, but all “consumer protection websites” prevent businesses from positively resolving customer inquiries.

The ultimate goal is to build a machine, by which MD247.COM reviews from consumers can be shared alongside blog articles discussing telemedicine and simple health topics.

This site is for you, our program members, please feel free to enter your MD247.COM reviews once the site is completely launched.

MD247.COM Reviews Telemedicine In Blog Campaign

Tampa Florida (PRWEB) July 19, 2012

The phrase “snake oil” is a derogatory term used to describe either fraudulent or unproven medical practices, and has been synonymous with the field of telemedicine. MD247.COM Founder Thomas Meehan appreciates that distrust and caution act as the parents of security, but he is not comfortable standing idle while a respectable field that can help supplement health is scorned. Rather than just holding his tongue, allowing the public to slowly warm to the idea of medicine paired with advanced technology, Meehan and MD247.COM launched a wide-scale educational blogging campaign on Wednesday.

The MD247.COM educational blogging campaign was launched on the company website, and is then scheduled to be filtered through several blogging accounts assigned to the company. The goal of the campaign is to allow MD247.COM reviews of specific ideas behind telemedicine, health tips and even general interest articles about the company to form a picture of the telemedical field for readers. It is Meehan’s desire to take the people who see telemedicine as a ripoff report incident, and allow them to see that there is no need to be a scam informer.

In addition to a campaign to build understanding of telemedicine through MD247.COM reviews of telemedical topics, the company is also conducting a wide scale hunt for additional competent writers. Meehan prefers that the writers have an interest in medical topics, but he is willing to consider anyone with a talent for the written word.

Wholesale Telemedicine By MD247

Tampa, FL (PRWEB) May 13, 2012

Supplementary telemedicine healthcare services are typically sold to interested parties one program membership at a time, creating an isolated program participant who often believes that the program is a scam. To quell the claims of both the pessimists and skeptics, MD247 Founder Thomas Meehan granted his telemedicine team the ability to sell program membership wholesale to large employers.

MD247 will also have wholesale telemedicine program options available to resellers of traditional insurance.

Meehan explains that the goal of offering large employers the opportunity to purchase the telemedicine program wholesale is to build a base of satisfied members, and provide a quality of life enhancing medical service. The MD247 Sales Team invites all interested business owners to submit an information request via the MD247 Facebook business page.

MD247 is a telemedicine resource that program members can use to talk to a doctor regarding non-emergency medical situations, all from the comfort of their own living room or place of employment. Telemedicine program members are able to route any/all non-emergency medical questions through a 24/7 hotline where they first talk to a nurse, the call is then forwarded to a state licensed doctor. After a program member has a chance to talk to a doctor, the doctor will determine if it is necessary and appropriate to call a prescription in to the local pharmacy.
