Catch Fire Dental Marketing: Communication with a ^Flare^ for Attracting More Patients!

This linked video presentation below provides general overview of how dentists should put together their marketing plan.

The details provided are helpful in deciding how to allocate resources with all the options available. And how to avoid spending everything on online advertising and many social media options, which are very effective, but do not cover the whole range of how and why consumers make decisions.

The video provides answers to how the dental consumer is "gathered" up, the new dental patient is "created" and the process of continual "improvement" to make success consistently possible.

NOTE: there is a Dentist-Client Video TESTIMONIAL at the end (or click), otherwise no voiceover, or music.

Dental Postcards Marketing WHITE Paper


 Dental Marketing WHITE Paper
Expect Greater Success with Express Dental Marketing's Variable Digital Printing Postcards Mailed in a campaign of consistent progress and with Oliver Gonsalves' finesse.
www.ExpressDM.com

Too many choices: the biggest issue affecting new dentistry patient growth and dental care upgrades.  This consumer tsunami of many choices is also constrained by 'available' income and appreciation for financing those choices. 

Dentistry also attaches the weight of three denial, procrastination, and treatment fear. It gets to be a big wave of waiving their right to better oral health, wavering and waving as they pass by...

The best dental marketing overcomes the barrier of inaction and non-acceptance, while positioning the choice of “more dentistry” much higher!
Sit Back, Relax... Oral Health

Personalized direct mail provides a level of uniqueness that successfully engages the dental consumer. Traditional direct mail is like someone driving the down street in your neighborhood with a loudspeaker promoting your dental services. Whereas personalized dental postcards are like someone coming right to your door, knocking on it, and gently speaking your name when you open it.

This immediate, relationship building aspect of personalized direct mail puts Express Dental Marketing in a unique position to boost your case acceptance and new patient growth.

Express Dental Marketing has various levels of personalized direct mail to start a dental-health-improving conversation with your patients and/or community. By targeting three different dental service niches, Express Dental is able to give almost any practice an instant and uniquely powerful presence in the lives of their patients and community.

Dentists who want to attract new families and improve internal communication, but also have an interest in promoting their cosmetic dentistry services have a complete suite of products in our Family Dentistry series.

Dental practices that are more interested in attracting adult patients for restorative and cosmetic dentistry, and improving case acceptance with current patients will find exceptional designs and concepts in our Cosmetic Dentistry series.

Orthodontists will also find exceptional personalized orthodontic marketing products and complete campaigns to become the leader in their community. The Express Dental Marketing orthodontic specialists series highly targets this demographic – from Invisalign® clear braces to comprehensive orthodontic treatment.

Express Dental Marketing offers two general personalized direct mail strategies: public and current patient. There are two ways to use the service - one-time, event driven occasions or a consistent, throughout the year campaign.

Some dental practices want to turn things around quickly and need a significant infusion of new patients. This includes startup or established practices. They would want to at the very least utilize the New Patient Booster series.

However, if you have an established practice with a large patient base that could be more productive from a dental treatment and/or a referral perspective, the Relationship Builders and Referral Reminders are the perfect choice to greatly enhance their internal revenue-generating network.

REFERRAL REMINDERS – PERSONALIZED CARDS WITH ENVELOPES

As a complement to your external campaign to attract new patients or as a substitute for the New Patient Booster is the New Mover Developers. This targets the latest movers and new residents in your area. 

These creative personalized concepts will put your practice out in front of the competition while encouraging families to make proactive decisions about their dental care.

While consistent, throughout the year campaigns (noted above) will have the most dramatic effect on revenue generation, Express Dental Marketing can provide your practice with superior value and response with special event and occasion marketing products.

The most unique product offered by Express Dental Marketing is the Open House Invitation, which can be used for many events such as a new building open house, new doctor, or something more specific like an Invisalign one-day event or to promote a new technique or dental technology like Lumineers or CEREC one-day crowns.

Finally, Express Dental Marketing is able to personalize your holiday greeting cards and send out birthday cards to patients throughout the year. These marketing strategies allow dentists to find out about the power of personalized dental direct mail and then build up as they see its powerful results.

Start Smile Like You Mean It!
Express Dental Marketing will set your dental or orthodontic practice apart. The uniqueness of personalization can overcome procrastination, dental fear, and dental health denial.

It will put dental care squarely on the map of the most worthwhile choices the consumer can make (now rather than later or never). You can wait by the sidelines for your next patient or get out there and make the best case for the choices you provide.

Website SEO For Dentists: Exposed!

SEO is working for some dentists and dental practices. But be wary of the HYPE! Dental website SEO is a 'well' of potential that cannot be fully understood or controlled – even by the dentist website SEO experts – because it is always evolving and not necessarily doing more for the money spent.

Make sure the dental website SEO well you are lowered into provides enough financial liquidity to pay back your investment not just a very long rope wrapping around your dental marketing budget.

Website SEO is NOT like dental treatment that has an upward trend of improvement over time – it is more like shifting sands of value with many areas of quicksand for your marketing dollars. Make sure you get the whole picture for your dental website strategy not just a service with a bunch of over-hyped promises. Your dentist web site strategy should focus on what YOU need, not mostly what SEO needs!

Your dentistry has a value that should standout from the GIMMICKS dental SEO firms have in their quiver. Make sure the dental practice Website SEO firm’s belief in their own service is not more overblown than their knowledge of other dental marketing services that might be more valuable to you.

Secondarily, dental SEO merely WAITS for new patients to search… so you end up fighting for the same limited patient base your dentist competitors are. Plus it is getting even more difficult to get those new dental patients as more of your dental practice competitors join in the online and SEO fray.

This means rather than enhancing the overall supply of patients, you are paying more and more dental marketing dollars for fewer patients than the first dentist that did SEO. While I do see issues with its SINGULAR potential for driving patients to your dental practice, SEO can help you gain a foothold in the dental advertising environment.

SEO – search engine optimization – the “free click” concept – is very seductive for many dentists. It is the “Free” dental PR of the web. However, there is REAL WORK involved. Either you do the dental web site search engine optimizing or your dental Webmaster does.

Dental SEO is an ongoing process. You also need to be wary of the many pitfalls and gimmicks that might hurt the high ranking potential of your dental web site. Think of effective dentist SEO as keeping ahead of periodontal disease with your patients. There are good days where you feel good about what has been done – but if nothing is done for months – much of the value is lost. Search engines change their rules and algorithms, and the basic technology of tracking results transforms constantly.

Effective dental website SEO is a matter of valuable content, updating, and some technical formatting and structuring. This is not all about “meta tags” as it was in the early days. Some SEO groups can even get your site blacklisted: using various schemes like “link farming” and “keyword slamming”. These are very shallow dental SEO strategies. Be sure the strategy is also about valuing your dentist expertise not just finding “a dental website”.

The most vexing dentist web SEO issue: there is no way to really quantify the value of any specific strategy that will get you at the top consistently because of all these variables. Unless they assess many aspects of their dental marketing, dentists will just pay more until “it happens”.

Finally, to gain the upper hand in this online dental advertising environment, it makes sense to have a decent offline proactive dental marketing campaign. Use SEO to gather up dental patients who are already out there searching for a dentist, but make sure you are ALSO introducing more people to the value of your dental practice brand through an external marketing strategy, a dental direct mail program for example. Even sending a few hundred or a thousand dental postcards a month, which direct consumer directly to your dental web site not to search for any dentist.

Remember dental SEO is a regressive strategy unless you are priming the pump with a proactive – get more consumers to log online – public (and patient) dental marketing communication campaigns. Avoid the quicksand of one trick pony dental advertising strategy. Get the right dental communication mix, Integrate!

2008 • The Year of Dental Communication Integration

This year we will figure out The Theory of Everything Dentistry Communication! It will provide THE simple answer to building super practices. Then we will offer 100% guarantees…

This ONE amazing strategy will rack up unbelievable sales. You will never need anything else. The success balloon will inflate continuously and never burst…

Almost without fail, this one strategy outcome is unlikely. Results will undulate, dissipate, or evaporate. This is when I usually get the call. “It worked for a while, but now everyone else is doing it.” Or “I had many years of growth with no ‘marketing’ and now things have started to slip.”

Building a business and the successful “marketing” of it requires ongoing adjustments and accompaniments. Reality has to be faced and no one thing keeps doing it. As in dentistry, whitening is great, but performed on a crooked smile that is not cared for regularly is less than viable.

In dental marketing, touting the latest thing is de rigueur. For example, get a website and then you will be successful. Achieve a top search engine spot with SEO and then you will make it. Send out email newsletters and then amazing things happen. Do PPC and then life is perfect.

Let’s start by debunking the SEO urban legend of web lore. First, only about ten web addresses show up per search results page. Therefore, when ten dentists in your area are doing SEO – attaining #1 is very costly if not impossible. This means only in the SEO guru’s short window of make believe is there any guarantee of success with this one strategy.

While this idea of ONE thing will get you to new patient nirvana is tantalizing, it is often its evil cousin––tantalying––spewing hot air. Once in awhile someone wins the convenient store lottery ticket of success, but most end up being in line behind them with a big gulp of almost nothing.

Yes, a dental website, brochure, SEO, PPC, direct mail, advertising, PR, and the next great thing can help improve your marketing position. However, what business would expect anything less than stagnation and future irrelevance without doing many of these things and improving them as time went by?

There is nothing wrong with trying new things. We just believe tying them together to strengthen your dental marketing is better for the long-term. I am sure you have had patients that wanted the quick fix and later realized there really was more there, there. This is where Niche Dental comes in…

Niche Dental is focused on communication integration. It wraps your brand around a niche so you are more agile to bypass the slumps and better leverage the booms.

Be wary of dental marketing made out to be effortless, free, or forever. Some day there might be one solution to the theory of everything dentistry, but right now there is more there, there.

In conclusion, dentistry is counter-intuitive. It’s needed, prevents pain, enhances health, improves confidence… But people avoid it, have pain because of it, live a less than satisfactory life, and spend more money on things worth less. Dental marketing has similar qualities. Most of us intuitively desire a simple solution, but Niche Dental is ready to show you how to turn counter-intuitive into success.

Really want a Theory of Everything? Meet Garrett Lisi: maybe the next Einstein. He shows how a counter-intuitive approach (surfer scientist) and thinking (no strings attached) can make big things happen. His theory showcases the elegance of conquering complexity with a not so common viewpoint.
