Four-Step Patient Funnel

  • A marketing funnel has four sequential steps: awareness, interest, trust, and booking.
  • If any step fails the phone won't ring or the caller won't book an appointment.
ADVICE

Use Focused Landing Pages

  • Send prospects to specific landing pages (e.g., Invisalign) instead of your homepage.
  • Make the page focused, mobile-friendly, and immediately relevant so visitors act quickly.
ADVICE

Prompt With Social Proof

  • Use social proof (before/after photos, videos, and testimonials) on landing pages to prompt action.
  • Show cases and people who look like the prospect to increase relevance and conversions.
