A patient success story is kind of like a customer testimonial on prednisone. (Gosh, I love me a healthcare marketing joke!)

A close cousin to the listicle, a charticle is exactly what it sounds like: an article presented in chart form.

(Why, yes, I would love to find out which celebrity’s hairstyle I should have!) And the concept has only proliferated in the digital age. According to a Demand Gen Report, website visitors are twice as [...]
