Building relationships, growing your sales pipeline.

About NRHA

Rural Hospital Specific Marketing and Engagement

The sales cycle in rural healthcare is unique. While the process can take longer, the relationships are often strong and long lasting. Generally, rural health leaders don’t immediately want to buy a service. They want to build a relationship based on trust, authenticity and transparency. They need to feel confident that you understand the unique challenges of rural health and won’t try to sell them a one-size-fits-all solution.

As a National Rural Health Association (NRHA) Partner, you’ll be better equipped to form those relationships with rural health c-suite and other leaders representing 1800 organizations throughout the nation. Whether it’s with a webinar, podcast, conference engagement or blog, our role at the NRHA Service Corporation is to facilitate those connections. Your role is to shake their hand, hear their needs and demonstrate your passion for rural health. And, when the time is right, offer tailored solutions.

Walk the Walk

Members, Partners and Sponsors

Building business in rural health takes commitment and passion. But in the end, rural health leaders select vendors they respect. When they see you rolling up your sleeves and engaging in the needs of rural health, beyond the immediate offerings of your product or service, you build trust. They see that you not only talk the talk, but that you walk the walk.
