How InTouch Became the Top Veterinary Digital Marketing Agency

At InTouch, we're not just a marketing agency; we're pioneers who have spent decades perfecting the art of veterinary marketing. What began over 30 years ago as a small, on-hold messaging company has evolved into a full-service digital marketing powerhouse. Today, we're recognized as the best in the industry, and our journey is a testament to our unwavering commitment to the veterinary community.

"We're proud to create veterinary medicine's most effective marketing products."

Our Credibility: Built Over 30 Years

Our deep understanding of veterinary marketing didn't happen overnight. It was built over 30 years, starting from humble beginnings. Our founders, Bill and Katie, launched the company as a small, on-hold messaging provider called On Hold Advertising. They quickly earned a reputation for quality, creating national campaigns for major brands like VPI Pet Insurance, Merial, and Pfizer Animal Health.

This early success and our commitment to our clients laid the foundation for our future. As the digital landscape changed, we evolved with it. In 2006, we officially became InTouch Practice Communications, transforming from a single-product company into the full-service digital marketing agency we are today. This journey has given us invaluable experience and authority in the veterinary space, allowing us to deliver the best results for our clients.

2025

AI Innovation + AAHA Partnership

We became the only preferred marketing vendor of AAHA and launched our AI Search Score, helping veterinary practices see how they rank in AI-driven search tools pet owners use to find care.

2024

A Year of Wins

As of February 2024, InTouch has launched 3 new proprietary data tools, exceeded 15 VETTY awards (we’re now at 16 plus a Judge’s Choice), and won Best Inline Exhibit booth at VMX 2024.

2021

New Normal

In 2021, InTouch officially shifted from a fully in-office model to a hybrid model, allowing our team the flexibility to work in-office or virtually. This took some adjusting, but we persevered through the challenges and continue to work closely together to do incredible things for our clients.

2020

We Won Our First VETTYs

The VETTY Awards® program was established by the North American Veterinary Community (NAVC) in 2017 to recognize stellar veterinary marketing. In 2020, we took the leap and submitted some of our work for judging–and took home several VETTYs.

2018

Exceeded 30 Employees

By 2018, we had tripled our team from 2012. Our digital marketing team grew exponentially, and we were able to take on new projects with even greater success. 

2017

Moved to Our New Digs

We were bursting at the seams... so we bought a 10,000-square-foot building and decked it out to meet the specific needs of our digital marketing team. Here, our entire team could collaborate easily in an open space. And we still have room to grow!

2017

Earned Our Credentials

In 2017, we hit quite the trifecta. We became a Google Partner, earned certification from the Local Search Association, and became a Silver Member of AAHA's Strategic Alliance Program!

2015

Exceeded 10,000 Projects

2015 was a big year for us – 10,000 projects kind of big. Our small but mighty team had successfully taken on 10,000 projects up to that year, and we were itching for more. 

2012

Exceeded 10 Employees

In 2012, we reached 10 employees, a huge milestone for a company that started with one! We were pleased to continue expanding our office space and our resources to help vets achieve success. 

2010

Bill Completed VMI Program at Purdue

Bill completed the Veterinary Management Institute program at Purdue to further his understanding of veterinary medicine and practice management. He has since become an educator in the program and also teaches marketing courses for both the Purdue and Notre Dame MBA programs. Bill enjoys speaking and helping veterinary practices understand the impact digital marketing can play on their bottom line and proudly wears the badge of 170 nights a year in a Marriott. 

2008

Growth During the Recession

When other businesses were slowing down during the recession, we were growing. Vet practices realized they needed to work harder to gain clients because many people put their pets' needs on the back burner in order to keep their families afloat. We were able to keep our prices affordable and offer practices the services they needed to continue to get clients through the door. In 2008, we expanded our office suite and were able to help vets continue their work. 

2006

Full Company Rebrand

Vets loved our telephone messages on-hold, but they wanted more. Our new InTouch brand better represents our full-service Marketing agency. 

2002

First Employee

Bill and Katie welcomed their first employee, Tammy, who helped us get organized for success.
