Worthless Chiropractic Marketing
June 12th, 2009
We’ve all heard the saying, “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.” Yet, it amazes me just how much I see this done within the chiropractic marketing and the profession as a whole. Far too many times I see chiropractors buying expensive media slots in the newspaper or on TV that are yielding mediocre results. It’s almost like these media sharks are feasting on “hope,” as the DC’s that I come into contact regularly with think they’ve just purchased a winning lottery ticket or something. Little do they know the startling reality on the other side. They’re actually killing their practice.
We are in seriously tough times in this country. The economy is in recession, and older forms of chiropractic marketing and advertising do very little good now. If you spend a fortune on marketing right now, you can be sure that your business is going to tank under all the pressure and expense. That means that chiropractors are marketing less to compensate, but continue to only suffer more. You need to market to get new patients through your door, but you can’t afford to do it the same old way. What’s the answer for today’s chiropractors?
The only answer to spreading the word about your chiropractic practice is to find a way to do it for free, and still yield tremendous results. When you harness the power of Web 2.0 and social media marketing, you can do just that. Gone are the days when you would spend a fortune on TV ads, newspaper spots, and telemarketing. These outdated forms of advertising are no good to you anymore, and can plunge you further into hardship.
There is good news. Even though you may have placed all of your finances in ineffective paid advertisements, you can still get some high-impact massive exposure and tons of new patients for free. This comes in the form of doing your chiropractic marketing on social media outlets like YouTube, Myspace, Facebook, and many others. By the way, at least half of members on these networks are above 30 years of age, contrary to popular belief.
Targeted marketing that specifically hits the demographic you need is the wave of the marketing future. It’s simple and cost effective, and you’ll be amazed at the amount of new patients and business you’ll receive. I can’t express how important it is to start your online marketing on the right foot! If you don’t know what you’re doing, you can seriously damage your credibility in your community from the get-go. This is how many chiropractors have failed. To create success, you need to find someone who has experienced success.
Here’s an idea for a strategy that works wonders when done correctly. Get on one of these social media sites and start an account. Then, invite people within a 5 mile radius to be friends, and start communicating with them. These people will begin to learn about you as a person, and then they can learn about you professionally. Taking steps like this will ensure that you’ll get phenomenal traffic to your chiropractic website and new patients through your doors.
Also, begin to provide massive value to these people. Send them videos and articles that they can begin to use and apply to their daily lives. For example, one video that I posted was about how to get rid of a headache naturally. This video garnered about 3,000 views within its first week! This was because it spread using viral marketing. Someone got an enormous amount of value out of it, then they forwarded this video to their friends, and so on.
You’re now beginning to see the massive potential these social media networks have in store for you. You can literally attract hundreds of people to your website and practice for free. You’re going to begin to see your chiropractic practice soar to unbelievable heights, even in these difficult financial times. With social media sites and Web 2.0, your practice can effortlessly become a vital component of your community and a very profitable business as well.
