Content Marketing

Build a
Connection

What is Content Marketing?

Content marketing is a subtle form of advertising that skilfully builds a connection with your target audience. On your behalf, we create and share blogs and videos that spark people’s interest and position your practice as a respected authority on a given issue. It’s about sharing your knowledge and expertise on topics that matter to your patients in a way that helps them see both your professionalism and your personality.

Strategy

A content marketing plan tailored to your needs.

Execution

Rolling out new content each month.

Adaptation

Adjusting tactics based on your website data.

All this content marketing stuff might actually work

As a physician, surgeon, practice manager or staff member, the goal of your content is to educate your patients and to provide the answers to the questions your patients are Googling or searching for in the online space.

By providing the content that your patients are seeking, it will help to establish trust and credibility toward you and your brand, establishing a positive relationship along the patient journey to the point of them contacting you as and when they require your health services.

If we can stress the importance of any marketing service for health professionals, content marketing is it! Everyone learns in different ways, so it is important to have variety in your content. Here are some of the content types we recommend.

Videos – A must have!

An exciting and somewhat untapped form of content marketing especially for the health and medical industry. Videos are an effective way of presenting a common problem, offering a solution and educating patients in a few shorts seconds.

Infographics

An information graphic. An easy to understand graphic that illustrates essential statistics, directions, procedures, health conditions, you name it, using icons, imagery, illustrations and design.

Images

Splitting up your content with compelling and relatable images is likely to make patients more inclined to continue reading what you have written.

Animated Graphics

Stand out from the crowd and add a little animation to your images. Animated graphics are one of our specialities and are a cost-effective way to add some excitement to often a dry healthcare subject to increase engagement.

Blogs

An informal and conversational article written on a specific subject. The goal of writing blogs is to offer fresh, interesting material to your website or social media page. Information that educates patients in the form of a text-based article.

Social media posts

Facebook has become an essential part of digital marketing for health professionals. Having a social media presence allows you to engage with your target audience and promote your brand directly to your followers. The way you structure the content in your posts is important, so chat with us to learn more.
