Marketing is an essential aspect of running a successful dental practice, but there is sometimes confusion around what portion of a practice’s budget should be dedicated to it.
The new year is approaching very quickly, and if you’re anything like me, you’ll want to be as prepared as possible for whatever it may bring. A great way to get a jump on 2023 is to take stock and make sure your digital media and marketing information is organized and easily accessible.
Getting a head start on 2023
One of our longtime clients and a trusted CAB member, Dr. David Pearce, recently shared with us his experience with digital marketing as a dental professional. We asked him what qualities are important in a marketing agency, and this is what he had to say:
Qualities You Should Look For in a Marketing Agency.
Dentists of all people understand that there’s a lot more that goes into the daily operation of a business than meets the eye. The front of the house, so to speak, is what the patients see, but it’s the behind-the-scenes that is really the lifeblood of the practice. An effectively planned, implemented, and maintained marketing strategy will pay dividends that far outweigh the initial investment and will continue to do so for many years.
What you’re actually getting for your marketing investment.
The post-pandemic marketing landscape can be sensitive from a marketing perspective, but there are definitely opportunities for dentists to serve patients whose dental health has suffered over the last two years. Dental implants is one of those opportunities.

Marketing can mean different things to different people, and how someone defines it often has a lot to do with their personal and professional experience.

One of our clients recently wrote an article about how to build a successful dental practice, and we think he hit the nail on the head when he explained that marketing is a key factor in his success.
Marketing is a Building Block for Successful Dental Practices
Prior to working with us, many of the dental practices we meet with aren’t certain how to know whether their marketing campaigns are really working. One of the questions we get asked most often is how to track what their campaigns are actually producing. To answer that question, we would like to talk a little bit about Marketing ROI — what it is, how to calculate it, and why you should be tracking it.
Marketing ROI
I’ve known from a young age that I wanted to be in marketing — didn’t know it would be dental marketing though. The Super Bowl ads I saw every year growing up were a huge influence on my choice to get into advertising. I’ve always been fascinated by their sheer creativity and their ability to engage viewers in a way that creates a lasting impression. It is no mistake that Super Bowl commercials have become the gold standard in advertising, and we can all learn a little something from them.
Who doesn’t love a good Super Bowl ad?
Instagram is one very popular social media platform — it has over a billion users. We love it and we think more dental practices should be using it as part of their digital marketing strategy. It’s an easy way to create awareness around your practice’s brand and reach more potential patients. Just follow the steps we have outlined for you here, and you’ll be on your way to becoming an Instagram aficionado in no time.
