There’s a popular saying that goes, “When times are good you should advertise. When times are bad you must advertise.” During this time of uncertainty, some practices have decided to cut back on their marketing. They are pessimistic about marketing their practice right now and they decide to wait out this period by turning off their ads, and holding off on communicating with their audience. What this really means is that it’s prime time to market your practice.
Do you remember dental marketing before the digital age when it was made up of TV commercials and print advertising? Back in the latter half of the 20th century, the big dental consumer companies used catch phrases and jingles in their advertisements, some you would probably remember today if you heard them again.
Last month in Part 1 of our Capturing New Patients series we talked about the challenges of following up with new patient leads when you and your team are busy juggling the day to day activities of your practice.
Bad reviews can really hurt your practice, especially when the bad review is for another practice but ends up on your Google or Facebook page. Check out this case study to learn more and how you can build your reviews back up.

Keeping up communication to your audience is critical now more than ever not just for your practice but for the well being of your patients, too.
Search engine optimization (SEO) — making your website appear as a top search result — is a must for practices that want to be found online when patients are searching for your services. However, many factors affect how your site ranks within these results, including the rest of your marketing strategy. While SEO is an important part of your marketing, it shouldn’t be your only focus. SEO, like most digital marketing tactics, is always changing.

Even as the country starts to open up, and we venture back out into public, people are still spending time on their phones and computers. As one of the biggest online platforms, Facebook should always be a priority when it comes to building brand awareness for your practice. Especially now, people want connection and are going to the platform to find it now more than ever. Facebook is a place where you can chat with friends and family, get information on local restaurants, and catch up on the news.
