Email: Old-fashioned or Still the Cat's Meow?


Think email is old-fashioned or ineffective? This VINx case study may just sway you. 

36 VetTools users sent a “Join the C.A.R.E. Club” outreach email to owners of lapsed cats. 
These emails generated an average of 10 visits per participating clinic within 60 days following the campaign launch.
In addition to improving the health of the cats and strengthening relationships between their owners and veterinarians, this campaign generated an average of $2,304 revenue per participating practice. Pretty big results from one little email! 
Give the VINx team a call today at (800) 454-0576 or visit vin.com/VINx to learn more.

Quick Poll logoHave you been tested for and/or have you had COVID-19?


It's the question of 2020: "What's your COVID status?"  This week's Front Page Quick Poll asks VINners about the prevalence of COVID-19 among our community of colleagues. Visit the Front Page to take the poll and view the results.

The many ways of calculating dexmedetomidine/medetomidine doses are enough to make you sleepy. In last week's Quick Poll, a plurality (40%) of the over 2000 VINners taking the poll responded that they usually calculate these drugs in mcg/kg. However, the Quick Poll Team (nostra culpa) forgot that animals exist in three dimensions and left off a key dosing form (mcg/m2). How do you dose these drugs?

Visit the Quick Poll Archives to read the full results of last week's poll and to share your take on this or other polls.
