Fall Dental Marketing and Practice Growth Ideas for October 2023

Hello Friends,

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 marketing seed tips & ideas you’ll find here are designed to help you exceed expectations for your current patients  and  the potential new patients in your community.  If you don’t want more new patients do these things for your current patients of record so they keep choosing you. Plus, it helps when you’re all having more fun at work!

October Dental Marketing, Practice Growth, and Social Media Content Ideas

The month of October is loaded with opportunities to exceed your patients’ expectations and grow your dental practice.

In this post, I am going to focus on tips and ideas for your social media platforms and Google business listing. At the end, you’ll find the links to additional marketing, practice growth, management, team building, and leadership tips and ideas for October 2023.

How Can Social Media Help Your Practice?  Here are just a few ways…

  • Build relationships between your office team and potential new patients
  • Stay in Touch with your Active and Inactive Patients
  • Increase your Online Presence
  • Learn what your patients/potential patients want

February 2022 Dental Office Marketing Ideas

February is International Boost Self-Esteem Month – A beautiful & healthy smile can boost one’s self-esteem and confidence.

February is American Heart Month –

Heart Health Talking Points: Dental Health and Heart Disease Are Related

Dental health and heart disease are intricately linked and the cost for avoiding advanced periodontal disease or even something as mild as gingivitis may very well prove to be the cause of serious medical problems in the future. Be good to your heart beginning with good oral health.

Tip: If you’re not currently taking your patients’ blood pressure at their appointments… make it a goal to start during the month of February. Many people see their dentist more regularly than a physician and could get an early warning about high blood pressure when getting their teeth cleaned or having other dental treatment done.

Pet Dental Health Month – Share pet dental health tips on your social media sites, ask people to share pictures of their pets on social media, hand out dog treats packaged with your office information. Even if the patient doesn’t have a dog surely, they know someone who does… a great way to get your office name out there!

January 2022 Dental Marketing (Growth) Tips and Ideas

January 2022 Dental Marketing (Growth) Tips and Ideas

Hello Friends,

For the month of January I am going to share ideas to help you grow your practice via your office social media platforms. (You’ll find that many of the ideas can easily be used to exceed your patients expectations during their visits to the office as well as to engage with local businesses in your community.)

If you’re looking for Dental Office Management and Leaderships Tips & Ideas for January 2022 Visit Here: January Management & Leadership Ideas

Social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Google My Business, LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest, Snapchat, Tik Tok, Blogs, Online Community News Pages, YouTube, and more help to build your dental practice. 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.  You want to be where they are and since first impressions matter – you want to 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.

How Can Social Media Help Your Practice?  Here are just a few ways…

  • Build relationships between your office team and potential new patients
  • Stay in Touch with your Active and Inactive Patients
  • Increase your Online Presence
  • Learn what your patients/potential patients want
  • Improve Community Involvement
  • Manage and Increase your Online Reputation
  • Great Way to Advertise Special Events, Office Specials, and feature Dental Products/Services
  • Excellent Dental Education Tool

Surely, you can see that in order to be effective and successful with your use of social media, it’s not a case of “if you build it they will come”. Yes, you must build it; however, you must also develop and nurture it. It takes time and effort to build relationships. The key is engagement. Just sporadically posting to your sites will not effectively engage your audience.

Do you find the tips & ideas that I share helpful to your practice?  It would make my day to hear from you! Please take a second to leave a review/recommendation for me on GOOGLE and/or FACEBOOK Thank you!!

Here are several social media content ideas for you to use during the month of January to help encourage engagement…

(Note: If you struggle with regularly posting content to your office social media platforms – I can help you with that.)

The Golden Globes and the Grammy’s are in January: Do a “match the famous smile to the celebrity” contest on Facebook and/or Instagram for your patients and the community for a chance to win a gift card or gift basket.

I’m Not Going To Take It Anymore Day: Jan. 7th – Help your patients to see that they don’t have to take their  Crowded Teeth, Yellow Teeth, Bad Breath, Sensitive Teeth, Snoring, Or Headaches, anymore!  You can help them!

National Hot Tea Month

National Soup Month

National Cheese Lovers Day: 2

Cigarettes Are Hazardous to Your Health Day: 11
