Healthcare professionals know how to treat patients but don't know how to market themselves. 

The reason is because they don't teach marketing in graduate school. 

But healthcare is a business. You have to communicate the value of your service to strangers.

Fortunately, the principles of marketing apply to healthcare as much as any other industry. You have a service. You find people who need it. You charge money for it. 

Healthcare businesses typically make one of several mistakes:

They rely on word-of-mouth marketing and referrals.
They don't differentiate in a crowded market. 
They rely too much on ads and social media.
They emphasize credentials, years of experience, and science too much.

Word-of-mouth marketing is slow and outside your control. Every other private practice offers the same services. Dancing reels on Instagram are cute, but they don't lead to more revenue. And patients don't care about the science, only the outcome.

ATTENTION VS RETENTION

It's one thing to get attention on social media or with SEO, but it's another matter to retain it. 

Retention is what makes a private practice successful, not just attention. Once a patient comes in for an initial consultation or evaluation, you want to keep that patient/client for life. 

Your website should turn visitors into patients. You should be flooded with inquires and consultation requests. If you're not, it's because people visit your site and leave. 

There's nothing compelling. The service descriptions aren't interesting. The blog hasn't been updated in a year. There's no newsletter. Your social media posts are nothing but discounts.

Without the right strategy, you won't do that, and you will constantly have to find new patients to keep your business afloat.

MARKETING PHILOSOPHY

The key to great healthcare marketing is to apply of the fundamentals. 

Your writing should be skimable, engaging, and concise. Mix education with entertainment. Tell more stories and fewer facts. Create more content from the founder. Take a stand. Be polarizing. Have a consistent message. 

Clever marketing might arouse a few laughs (Super Bowl commercials, anyone?) but they won't earn you lifelong patients.

MY CAREER
