IDENTIFY YOUR IDEAL PATIENT
• Start off by identifying your most profitable
patients and then narrow that segment
down to those that are more likely to refer
• Develop your initial marketing content to
speak to and capture this extremely
targeted demographic first
• Then build out your client base from there
using this same model for your second,
third and fourth most-ideal patients

• Come up with a Unique Selling
Proposition (USP)
• Every dentist is qualified, every practice is
expected to be staffed by certified
professionals. The real question is how do
you go above and beyond this?
• What makes your clients choose you and
refer you over and over again?
• Step outside of the box and don't market
like other dentists do

practice, so make sure it accurately reflects
this

guess what they are going to associate you
with – pain.

bios up of you, your partners and your staff
• Have informative content and videos up, as
well as before and after shots of your
patients

your site

answer any questions from patients in a
