What Happened When I STOPPED Sending Direct Mail

that direct mail was something that we needed to keep back in, because direct mail was a touchpoint that people still want.

BUT WHEN WE ADDED DIRECT MAIL BACK... As we added direct mail back in, there was a date correlation to when numbers started to increase again. As you said, physical therapy marketing is a layered experience: • Patients see a postcard • They open up a piece of mail from a thank-you card or a “how are you doing” card • They look at a newsletter with pictures and read health tips on the newsletters Everyone has a different way of consuming information. They need a different experience. Until you experiment with different types of physical therapy marketing, you truly don’t know what’s going to work.

Is print mail dead? Not according to our clients! Neil interviewed one of our most SUCCESSFUL clients on what happened when they stopped printing their newsletters. Here’s what he said, in his own words... WHEN WE STOPPED SENDING PRINT MAIL, OUR PATIENT NUMBERS CRASHED. Practice Promotions Client: I’m the first one to humble myself. At the beginning of the year, revenue wasn’t that great. We looked at cutting back on some of our print media, and we did cut back on direct mailing for a period of time for one of our locations! But we saw that our numbers crashed when we stopped direct mailing. That was a humbling experience for us. We realized

SIX BENEFITS OF Attending Your Quarterly Call

Have you ever missed a quarterly call with Practice Promotions? We know you’re busy. But attending your quarterly call is CRUCIAL to helping your marketing succeed! Why? Because the most important thing you can do for your marketing is keep in touch with your team! Here are 5 benefits of attending your quarterly call…

On your quarterly call, your marketing team will tell you your annual return-on-investment, or ROI. You’ll feel more confident once you know your ROI!

PLAN YOUR MARKETING FOR THE NEXT QUARTER.

4

During your quarterly call, your marketing team will ask you about your goals for the next 90 days. This will help you work TOGETHER to plan your marketing! Is fall coming, and you want to market to fall athletes? Do you want to introduce your new PTs or staff to the community? Or do you want to add speciality topics like pelvic health or dry needling to your Google Ads? Meeting with your marketing team every quarter will force you to think about your clinic goals. But if you don’t attend your quarterly call, we won’t be able to plan ahead with your goals in mind.

UNDERSTAND YOUR NEW PATIENT RESULTS.

1

We know that your #1 priority is getting new patients and filling your PTs’ schedules. That’s our #1 priority, too. On your quarterly call, we’ll go over your number of patient leads coming from your Website, Google Ads PPC, and Digital / Printed Newsletter! If you’ve been filling out your Stat Tracker, your team will be able to calculate what percentage of patient leads turn into paying patients. Again, the #1 reason to show up to your call is to learn if your marketing is bringing in new patients. Don’t just trust your gut feeling. Show up and KNOW for sure.

GET EXPERT ADVICE ON HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR MARKETING.

5

MAKE SURE YOUR FRONT DESK IS DOING THEIR JOB.

2

You’ve invested a significant amount of money in your Practice Promotions marketing. So why WOULDN’T you attend your marketing meetings? Make use of the marketing advice you’re paying for. Show up, ask some questions, and leave with more knowledge and more confidence.

If your marketing team is reporting 20 new patients calls to your clinic, but you’ve got only 1-2 new patients, the problem isn’t your marketing— it’s your front desk. When you attend your quarterly call, you can make sure there isn’t a big mismatch between the number of calls you’re receiving and the number of new patients on your schedule.

CHECK YOUR CALENDAR FOR YOUR NEXT QUARTERLY CALL

6

FEEL CONFIDENT IN YOUR RETURN-ON-INVESTMENT (ROI).

3

By now, you should be excited to attend your next quarterly call and get all these benefits! So check your calendar and note the time / date of your next quarterly call. Make a commitment to attend your next quarterly call.

Marketing is an investment. That means that overall, you should be making more money on new patients than you spend on marketing.

This 3-Location Practice Tapped into a Wealth of New Patients with the New Ultimate Marketing System !

Kevin Rabago, LPTA and Owner of Haymarket Physical Therapy, was tired of lackluster marketing tactics that wasted time and money! Looking to take his clinic to the next level, he started collaborating with the marketing experts at Practice Promotions. With a combination of top-notch SEO, condition based Google Ads, and Patient Newsletters, they’re helping more people in their community than ever before! In 3 months, they increased their new patient volume by 77%, were able to track every lead, and are now hiring to keep up! HERE’S WHAT KEVIN HAS TO SAY... “I’ve sat through several marketing calls and typically the pushing nature of the presenter and the absence of how exactly they can prove how many new leads are being generated with their strategy sours the call. But my first call with Daniel Turner [of Practice Promotions] had a very personal feel. Absolutely genuine and nailed all aspects to how leads would be generated and how I would be able to track each and every lead. It made the decision easy and a slam dunk! Practice Promotions has surpassed my expectations, and since teaming up with them, I have needed to bring on 2 more clinicians to keep pace!”
