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.
My Dental Agency is more than just a professional marketing company that caters to dental practices. It is also a quality resource for the entire dental community. One of our core values is education.

Getting to know the MDA Team: The Who Builds Your Website version
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.
What you need to know about Instagram in 2022
It’s 2022! A new year means new goals and a fresh start. So what can dental practices do to make this year different and better than the last? Here are three important marketing strategies that we think every practice should implement in 2022.
Marketing Strategies You Should Focus On In 2022
We highly recommend focusing your marketing efforts on attracting quality patients to your practice, not only to increase your bottom line, but also to maintain your sanity.
If you had one wish for 2022…
Marketing a dental practice is mostly about attracting new patients, right? Well… not really. Of course you want to grow your practice with new patients, but neglecting the patients you already have — the core of your business — is never a good idea. If your practice is successfully attracting new patients but losing existing ones, then the net result is not likely to be positive at the end of the year. Real growth happens when your practice can gain new patients AND continue to maintain active, profitable relationships with the existing ones as well.
It’s all about building relationships
Every year at about this time, I write about the things I am grateful for as a business owner and marketing professional. This year, however, I thought I would change things up a bit and ask my team to share their thoughts about working for MDA. Here, in their unedited words, is what they had to say.
