Growth oriented private practice marketing

Private Practices

We'll do the marketing You do the dentistry

Finding a dental marketing agency you can trust with your general dental practice isn’t easy. As the owner, you’re the one-man band of small business. You’re expected to be the CEO, COO, CFO, and VP of Marketing, all while providing clinical care to your patients. If you feel like you’re wearing too many hats, you’re right. Our knowledgeable, full-service marketing team has worked with over 1500 practices, just like yours. Our experience lets you focus on what you love to do the most – transforming smiles.

We Know Your Story. And, we have the solution

When you’ve been helping dentists solve their new patient problems for two decades, you learn a lot. And while every story we hear is unique, there are some common issues that drive a practice to pick up the phone. You don’t have to be struggling to need a partner to market your dental practice. Even those that are successful want help because they have become addicted to that success. They know that if you don’t nurture growth, it will slowly die. Which practice sounds like you?

Types of Practices We Help

Startups

Starting a dental practice from scratch often means you have a very limited marketing budget and a hefty monthly payment to the bank each month. Many startup owners remain as an associate in another office for a year or two while their new practice picks up speed, which means you have even less time available to market your practice. An experienced partner can give your practice the support you need.

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • New patients, FAST
  • Sustained and steady growth
  • A marketing plan that fits your budget

HOW WE HELP:

  • Foundational marketing, like brands and websites
  • High-impact strategies to drive new patients quickly
  • Interest-free payment plans

Sales & Transitions

You purchased a practice from a doctor that your patients truly loved and trusted. The patients may be older, since most patients skew 10 years younger and older than the dentist who owned the practice before you. That doctor’s dentistry may have ranged from “let’s watch that cavity for a year to see if it gets worse” to “We need to rehab every tooth in your mouth.” Combined with your practice philosophy, it’s a sure-fire recipe for conflict. Now you have to build a loyal following of your own with new patients, all while keeping the existing ones happy. Talk about being of two minds.

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • A smooth transition from the previous dentist
  • A team who embraces and supports your practice philosophy
  • An influx of new, younger patients to balance out the older practice demographics

HOW WE HELP:

  • Internal marketing, such as a well written transition letter that explains your practice philosophy
  • Retention and reactivation campaigns that invigorate both the team and the patients
  • Targeted new patient strategies designed to reach the right demographics

New Associates

Your practice has grown to the point that you need an associate, and you’ve found the perfect one. While it feels reasonable to expect this associate to go pound the pavement looking for patients just like you did years ago, that’s rarely their expectation. You need to fill their schedule, soon, before they leave you for corporate dentistry.

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • A rapid influx of new general dentistry patients and families
  • Introductions of your associate to your specialists so they know who to refer to
  • More hours in your day. Not only are you building your business but your associate’s too

HOW WE HELP:

  • Competitive new patient strategies like dental postcards, Google Ads, social media ads, and more
  • Outreach coaching to teach your associate how to build those referral relationships
  • An experienced marketing strategist, freeing up time in your schedule

Stagnant & Struggling

Calls have slowed down and new patients are not as plentiful as they once were. Maybe a corporate chain moved into town, or it’s possible that new website you just launched tanked your rank online. Regardless, the phone is quiet and it’s making you anxious. It’s time to ramp things back up.

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • A marketing plan of attack that maps out every step to take over the next year
  • Quality new patient leads who will stay with the practice
  • Steady growth that you can count on

HOW WE HELP:

  • Strategic planning to open your eyes to untapped opportunities
  • Clear deliniation of team marketing tasks and agency responsibilities
  • Intentional, thoughtful branding to set your practice apart from the masses
  • Call tracking, ROI measurement, and continual plan refinement for maximum results
