It's June! Use These Social Media Posts to Educate Your Clients

The start of a new month brings with it the need for new social media posts to keep your practice's accounts active and robust. That's why we've created posts for you to share on your practice's social media channels. Keep reading to find images you can download and share, along with helpful information to provide alongside them.

Planning tip: Before you start publishing content, take 10 minutes to map out the posts you'll share over the coming month. You don't need to create all of the posts during this time, but identifying topics to post about will help ensure you're sharing information on a wide range of topics over the coming weeks, and will get your creative juices flowing!
