Go ahead, take a look at your marketing plan. How much are you spending in marketing for your dental practice each year? Is your money working for you? Is your dental website ineffective? Are you guilty of website abuse?
Believe it or not, you don’t have to spend the bulk of your marketing budget on creating and maintaining a website. You can get results in the form of new patients in the door for an affordable rate; you just need to know where to look. Sit back and let us tell you how you can get more bang for your buck and bring in more patients to your practice
Your practice is moving in the right direction. You’ve got your dedicated patients who’ve steadfastly been with you since Day One, and you’re putting the right pieces in place to attract new patients. But you always want to look ahead, right? A good practice doesn’t stay on top of its game if it becomes stagnant.
Your patients have a hectic life. Between work, family, and everything else they’ve got going on, they then have to fit in appointments, and that goes for scheduling time to come into your dental practice. I mean, put yourself in their shoes. With all that you do, you have to think: when is the best time to make time for things like the dentist office?
You’ve got a lot on your plate – you run a successful dental practice, taking care of not only your patients, but your team members each day. Between pulling Ms. Jones’ tooth and making sure all the bills are paid, you don’t have a lot of downtime to focus on other services, such as marketing your business. You decide to take the step and find a dental marketing firm that can take that load off your plate. What they are selling sounds good, and just as you’re about to commit to them, they pull out this caveat – you need to sign a long-term contract for their services. This begs the question, you want good marketing help, but at what price?
