Chiropractors have long been deficient when it comes to innovative marketing. Most fail to learn or apply the important lessons of business management when it comes to their practice. They have a great deal of technical knowledge, but lack common business sense. Times are changing, however, and those who are willing to open their minds to new ideas will see themselves pull ahead quickly from the pack. A slowing economy doesn’t need to be a threat when you have the tools to effectively market your business in today’s digital world.
Are you wasting thousands of dollars every year on postcards, newspaper drops, and telemarketing? Do you spend time at the chamber of commerce, trade shows, and networking events trying to generate referrals with minimal results? You may be surprised to find out that the best form of marketing and advertising is absolutely free.
For the past few years, I have been teaching chiropractors and other professionals how to leverage the power of social media and see massive, real benefits in their businesses. I am the author and creator of a system that has literally transformed the chiropractic profession and the way practitioners are marketing themselves.
When I was first on these social networks, I knew there had to be a way to harness and leverage them to get massive amounts of new patients coming into my office. That’s when I began the countless hours and months testing and perfecting a system that continuously gave me incredible results.
The main problem I see when chiropractors get on these social networks is that they begin to spam other people with blatant advertisement. This is a problem because people hate this and you will end-up being booted off the network. Now, of course, the proper thing to do is to seek a mentor who has already been there and done that so you can have the pure essentials and good how-to information. Few do this though, as they think they are the experts.
It really comes down to trust and credibility in the long-run. Perception is everything and if you don’t appear normal while acting desperate, forget about “mining the gold” from Myspace, YouTube, Facebook, etc. Also, how much value are you providing your friends? What type of content are your providing? Does your profile make people want to stay longer on your page? These are all questions to consider when trying to utilize social media to indirectly promoted any product or service.
Let me leave you with a couple simple tips about chiropractic marketing on Myspace. Never send a friend request without a polite message! This is Myspace 101 stuff that is very important since you want the person to know how you ran across their profile. Always include videos on your profile, as it makes people stay on your page for a longer period of time and holds interest. Now, I’m not talking of all chiropractic videos either. People want to know the real you, not just what your profession is!
Social networks will open you up to a whole, new world of fun and profitability if you have the proper and necessary guidance to do it right the first time
