Do you enjoy logging into Facebook and updating your status? Or, perhaps sharing your latest photo on Instagram? If so, you’re not alone. Social media marketing for dentists is the future of networking your practice, and it is more than just a social tool for individuals. Dentists are getting in on the action, incorporating all social media platforms into their marketing plans.
Facebook is the most popular social media network, with over two billion users nationwide. With 214 million U.S.-based users, you have unlimited opportunities to recruit new patients and communicate with existing ones!
According to the Pew Research Center, in 2005, about five percent of American adults used social media. Compare that to 2018, with 69% of adults in the U.S. using social media.
This is why it’s so important for you to identify how your practice can maintain its social media presence and work it to your advantage! Social media is here; it’s the present and it’s the future, and understanding how it can build your practice is more important now than ever.
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.
