If you’re handling your own dental practice marketing, you know that it can feel overwhelming at times.
Think about the different aspects of what it takes to compete in today’s online environment: search engine optimization, online content, a strong social media presence, online reputation management, and much more.
Dental practice owners wear a lot of “hats,” and the sad truth is that only one of them – your dentist’s hat – makes you any money. Adding a lot of marketing hats isn’t a good use of your time or talents.
Nevertheless, They Persisted
A surprising number of practice owners, for their own reasons, insist on handling their marketing themselves. That may seem like a fiscally responsible decision, and in some cases it may be. But for most dentists, a quick look at the value of their clinical time versus the cost of outsourcing will show that it’s a money-loser.
Besides, you didn’t go to dental school to become a marketing specialist, did you? Dr. Jonathan Gilbart of Hagerstown, Maryland certainly didn’t. He found an excellent solution.
“I’ve had different companies in the past.” he said. “They’re good at this, they’re good at that, but they don’t put it all together. I don’t have time to put it all together. I want to focus on my patients and focus on what their needs are. I like to tinker with the stuff, but to be honest, I’m not that great at it. So, I wanted to find a company that could do everything, as far as marketing, for me.
“I decided to make the leap of faith, and I’m glad that I did because I’ve been very happy with SmartBox and their ability to take all the stuff, put it together, and handle that aspect so I can focus on my patients.”
