Online Digital Advertising For Dentists and Physicians

Online Digital Advertising For Dentists and Physicians

Patient acquisition costs can be anywhere from $8 to $27 per new patient in most US areas, and for areas with high competition these costs can be even higher. There are certain advertising mediums and techniques that produce excellent ROI

Every day millions of potential patients are searching online for their medical needs, and are using the web to find their local healthcare providers.  Yellow pages, bill-boards, local newspapers are outdated advertising mediums; they simply lack the instant accessibility and depth of information that a website and combination of online advertising can provide.  Online advertising is by far the most effective way to attract new patients, acquire them, and ultimately retain them.  Due to its preeminent importance, many clinics to focus their online advertising strategy solely around having a website. However, having a website is really only the first step in creating an online presence that will effectively attract and generate patients.  Executing a successful online advertising and patient acquisition strategy requires much more than a website.  In order to increase your clinic’s patient count, and the revenue from each patient you service, you need intelligent software behind your website, and a strategy that’s proven to be successful for healthcare clinics across the USA & Canada.

What Not to Do if You Decide to Run Online Dental or Medical Advertising?

Just like operating your practice, running and managing your digital healthcare advertising is not easy.  Here are some things to avoid.

  1. Don’t start and stop campaigns – Data is needed to make adjustments to your campaign. Professional online advertisers, look at the campaign data, keywords, negative keywords, conversion pages, quality of patient behaviour to make adjustments
  2. If you have a small budget and you are in a very competitive market, you are NOT likely to see any results.
  3. Do not switch advertising mediums too quickly. For example one of our customers in a very competitive area of Dallas suburbs, wanted to spend $1000 per month on online ads, 15 days on Facebook+Instagram and 15 days on Google. This will be a WASTE of money.   Running a successful ROI based campaign needs time and analysis.  In this case we recommended to customer to commit for monthly budget and let PatientGain make the decision.  We allocated 80% of the budget to Google PPC ads and 20% of the budget to Facebook ads, for this customer.
  4. Your competition is not sleeping. They are looking at your ads also. They are adjusting also. So you must be nimble.
  5. Do not send users to non-relevant pages or posts.  Provide useful information on every landing page.
  6. Do not overload with long videos – Short videos produce best conversion.
