(This description is for the 2014 updated version of The Health Advocate's Marketing Handbook.)
As a private health or patient advocate or navigator, you may think about marketing and shudder. You understand its importance, but marketing seems like an incomprehensible time and money eater that just takes you away from your advocacy work.
Marketing doesn't have to be that difficult to understand or plan. Nor does it need to be expensive to implement. In fact, once you understand the basics, and see how they apply to your business, you'll find yourself thinking of new ideas on a regular basis. You might even like marketing!
This book is a must-have for those who choose to manage private advocacy and health-related practices including: patient advocates, patient navigators, case managers, care managers, midwives, doulas, therapists, guardians, conservators, life planners, family mediators, disability advisors, acupuncturists, health coaches, yoga instructors, massage therapists, elder care professionals, nursing home advisors, medical bill reviewers, health insurance advisors, medical legal advisors and others.
It provides advice and guidance to help you optimize your outreach with advertising, your website, public relations, newsletters, print materials and more. You’ll learn how to maximize your marketing budget with no-and low-cost promotional tactics. You’ll be able to brand yourself and your business, and develop and effective marketing plan.
Once you own the book, you’ll also be able to take advantage of several free downloads: a workbook that accompanies the Handbook, plus templates for both a marketing plan and a press release, and dozens of links to useful online resources.

About the Author
When Trisha Torrey was diagnosed with a rare, aggressive lymphoma in 2004, she was a marketing consultant who knew almost nothing about healthcare. She was also naïve to the dysfunction of the American healthcare system that was tasked with treating her.
But she got smart, fast. She learned that the possibility of excellent care was too easily and frequently eclipsed by miscommunication and mistakes. She also learned that if she didn’t stick up for herself, and insist on the help she needed, she would not get it. The more empowered she became, the more she realized there was a possibility she had no lymphoma. Eventually she proved she was right; she had no cancer.
Once Trisha put that “no cancer” odyssey behind her, she decided it was up to her to apply her skills to teaching others how to navigate the dangerous landscape of American healthcare. She sold her marketing company in 2006 to devote herself full time to the cause.
Today Trisha calls herself “Every Patient’s Advocate.” She is the founder of AdvoConnection.com and the Alliance of Professional Health Advocates which support the business aspects of a health advocate’s work. She writes regularly for a number of online outlets, speaks to groups of patients and professionals, and teaches workshops. She is the author of four books: You Bet Your Life! The 10 Mistakes Every Patient Makes (How to Fix Them to Get the Health Care You Deserve) , The Health Advocate’s Start and Grow Your Own Practice Handbook, this book, and The Health Advocate’s Advanced Marketing Handbook.
Trisha has been quoted by CNN, MSNBC, Forbes, the Wall Street Journal, O Magazine, U.S. News and World Report, NPR, Scientific American, Angie’s List Magazine, Bottom Line Publications, and others.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to ThriftBooks-Atlanta, Dallas, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
