I’ve just gotten my hands on a remarkable new book that I believe could make all the difference in your practice, especially right now. The author (and my good friend) Scott Manning is giving away free copies to all of our clients and followers, as an added benefit to being a part of My Dental Agency.
When a dental practice hires a marketing agency, they usually have great expectations, and that’s what I love to see! Working with a practice that is enthusiastic about marketing makes my job even more satisfying than it already is.
If your marketing seems generic or (heaven forbid) boring, it’s time to wake it up! Customizing content, telling your story, focusing on patient needs, and having a solid strategy in place will make your marketing more interesting without making it “weird”, and you will notice that the quality and quantity of patients coming to your practice will improve.
Business leaders young and old face the same problem — how to form a solid team that will work hard to promote the business’s success. Whether it’s a new business or an established one, the people you recruit will be crucial to your survival.
With social media continuing to grow in popularity, many people believe that email is no longer relevant. We don’t believe that’s true. In fact, email is one of the most powerful marketing tools a dental practice has at its disposal for various reasons, one of them being that not everyone is on social media, but pretty much everyone has an email that they check every day. Adding email to your practice’s marketing strategy is an effective and efficient way to reach a large number of people in a short period of time, and it is far more flexible than any other form of marketing communication.
Marketing is an art and a science. To be effective, your marketing has to appeal to your target audience by giving them information they want and need, and it has to be compelling enough to make them pay attention. So, what works best when it comes to marketing communications? Let’s talk about it.
There are plenty of patients for every dental practice to be successful, which is why we never want our clients to obsess over what others are doing as far as pricing, promotions, or advertising. However, we do actively encourage them to stay aware of what is going on around them in general.
When it comes to marketing, there’s nothing more convincing than seeing real results and case studies showing the progress from start to finish, the specific steps it took to get there, and the detailed end results.
Has your marketing strategy been producing the results you want? Do you feel like your efforts are falling flat? Perhaps it’s time to take a good look at your current marketing strategy and make some changes. Implementing three simple strategies could vastly improve the marketing results for your practice.
There are thousands of marketing and advertising agencies in the US, from huge, national corporations to tiny boutique agencies with a single owner, and everything in between. Obviously, not all marketing agencies are equal.
