No Time For Marketing

Primary health care is vast and there is so much to do. Let us take care of marketing issues so you can focus on medical ones.

Marketing Strategy

A marketing strategy is vital. We learn about your practice so we can develop a tailored marketing strategy that will help you acquire new patients and retain existing patients.

Website

Most patients meet you here, long before their first appointment. Your website should reflect your practice’s culture and values, showing you’re accessible, capable and responsive. Your practice needs to also provide a great patient experience. We help you improve the online patient experience with educational content on your site, doctor BIOs and an after-hours booking system.

Content Creation

Content marketing is a powerful educational tool that establishes your credibility with prospective patients and helps position your practice as the best in the area. We write on behalf of your doctors, interview them for the health facts and crafting this into a patient-friendly article. Our content expresses your personality and complies with industry standards. We offer a range of content options from ebooks, patient brochures, infographics, video, emails (EDMs) and blog articles. Our healthcare copywriter, Beth, has years of experiencing writing health-related articles.

Tech Stack

The right tech stack can help advance your practice and marketing efforts. We give you access to world-leading technology and marketing programs to automate, systemise and excel your patient-marketing campaigns.

SEO

SEO is a carefully planned, ongoing activity that helps your website rank highly on search engines. After all, if Google doesn’t love you, your ideal patients can’t find you. And with so many general practices available in the local area, you need to be at the top of Google to increase your local marketshare.

Social Media

Many of your patients are on social media making it a highly effective marketing tool. We can target prospective patients right down to a specific location. We use social media channels to tell your audience health-related stories, educate them around health services, share topical health news, show your personality and the people behind your practice and as a communications tool.

Digital Advertising / Pay Per Click (PPC) Advertising

Our digital advertising services, known as pay-per-click (PPC)services—Google Ads, social media campaigns and programmatic advertising—are designed specifically for healthcare professionals to reach and engage prospective patients. We target audiences precisely by location and demographics, ensuring your ads are seen by those actively seeking your healthcare products or services. Even with a smaller advertising budget, we focus on optimising every dollar to increase patient bookings and drive measurable results, helping your practice grow efficiently through paid media.

Acquisition and Retention Strategies

We spark interest in your practice from prospective patients or old ones who’ve drifted away through acquisition and retention activities. Acquisition marketing drives people to your practice and retention nurtures patients once they've had their first initial consult so they continue to return. Whether it's promoting a national health event and inviting patients for a consult or promoting your GPs special interests, acquisition and retention are highly effective in achieving your marketing goals.
