Grow Your Practice Podcast

I get asked a lot about what the most effective marketing strategy is, or where to start if you're just getting started with marketing. My answer is always to start with your past patient list. Using email (correctly) to engage your patient list is the single most effective and affordable way to drive consistent patient visits. Whether you rarely email your patient list or you're an emailing master, this episode will offer helpful tips for improving your email marketing strategy to capture more visits from past patients. This episode is a recorded webinar. To watch the version of the recording that includes the webinar slides, visit: https://bit.ly/3htmDPl

The 5 Stages of Awareness, defined by Eugene Schwartz, help owners generate consistent demand for their services. Most PTs today only capture demand from people who already know them. While this group makes up the lowest-hanging fruit, it excludes many potential patients: Those who could benefit from PT but don’t know it. Practices looking to generate consistent patient visits can achieve greater success by marketing across all five stages of awareness.
