Dental Office Marketing and Practice Growth Ideas for October 2022
September 22, 2022 by bettyhayden

Dental Office Marketing and Practice Growth Ideas for October 2022

Hello Friends,

We’re so close to the start of the final quarter of the year. Here are some ideas and strategies that will help you end the year strong & happy. 

October is Apple Month – “You can count the seeds in an apple, but you can’t count the apples in a seed.“

Marketing your dental practice is like planting seeds. Some seeds sprout right away, and others may take a while. You may have written some seeds off as a loss and when you least expect it, there it sprouts and produces beautiful results. And some may sprout where you don’t even remember planting.

What are your marketing seeds? Everything that you do, everything that the patient (and potential patient) sees, hears & feels. Everything Matters!

The tips and ideas (practice growth seeds) when implemented will keep things fresh and fun in your office. More importantly, they will exceed your current patients’ and potential patients’ expectations – why is this so important? Because exceeding your patients’ expectations will help keep them loyal to your office. Contributing to practice growth! These things will allow you to focus on doing what you do best, helping your patients achieve healthy and beautiful smiles.

Doctors, if you would like to grow and improve your dental practice and have wondered what it might be like to work with me and what coaching is all about… please feel free to reach out to me to schedule a complimentary, no-obligation coaching call at bhaydenconsulting@gmail.com.

Apple Month – Patient & Community Appreciation

Patient Gift– Set out a bowl or basket of apples to give to your patients’ and visitors to the office.

Build & Strengthen Relationships with the local businesses in your community by delivering some gifts to them. For example,

  • Basket of Apples
  • Donuts and Apple Cider
  • Apple Pie
  • Toothbrush or Lip Balm attached to an apple-shaped gift tag.

Patient & Community Dental Health Education Ideas: 

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month – See more ideas here:  Ideas for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is National Dental Hygiene Month –  See Tips & Ideas for National Hygiene Month

Social Media Post Ideas to Improve Engagement during the month of October

Even if you’re not a fan of social media, please remember that most likely many of your patients and potential patients are using these platforms regularly. Engage with them!  You want to be where they are and since first impressions matter – make sure that your office is making a positive impression.  Just like with reviews on your Google listing you want reviews/recommendations from your patients on your office Facebook page too.

Spinach Lovers Month

National Walk Your Dog Day: 1

National Taco Day: 4

World Smile Day: 7th

National Salmon Day: 8

World Egg Day: 13

Senior Health & Fitness Day: 25

Wishing you the happiest October!

Yours for Greater Success,

Many cancer treatments have side effects that affect a person’s mouth, teeth, and salivary glands. Dental and oral side effects can make it difficult to eat, talk, chew, or swallow. Fortunately, under your care, you can help your patients lower the risk of these side effects and manage them if they do happen.
