<strong>Dental</strong> <strong>Marketing</strong> <strong>Ideas</strong> - Always Think <strong>Marketing</strong><br />

As a dentist you may be a little put off by the thought of "marketing" your dental business.<br />

After all you didn't major in business, you majored in dentistry. What you might be surprised to<br />

find out is how much of what you do in your day to day business consists of marketing. You<br />

would probably also be surprised to find out what little changes you could make to greatly<br />

improve your business. Here are some ideas for how to market your dental practice effectively.<br />

Connect with Your Patients<br />

You are a dentist so first and foremost your plan is to get as many patients as you can set up<br />

with as many procedures as you can. This is part of your dental marketing plan. You obviously<br />

care about dental hygiene, it's important to you, but not beyond the importance of supporting<br />

your family and paying off student loans. However, being a good dentist requires you to be a<br />

good person. You need to be capable of forming empathy for your patients. You need to make<br />

them feel like you genuinely care about their wellbeing.<br />

Exhibit Chair side Manner<br />

The number one way of letting your customers know you care is by exhibiting good bedside<br />

manner. You need to show the patient that you care, listen for any concerns, and acknowledge<br />

whatever trouble they may be having. Being a good dentist is a part of marketing since it is the<br />

way you get your patients to stick with you. It is also the best way to get new dental patients,<br />

since word of mouth is more effective in your dental business than anything else.<br />

Communicate With Your Patients<br />

Ask your patients how they feel about your services regularly. Also do not put them under a<br />

great deal of duress to purchase procedures that they cannot afford. Yes, you have to


suggestively sell and market your more high-end dental procedures, but keep it practical. Do<br />

not turn into a salesman; keep your first job in mind. Also, do not try to talk patients into<br />

unnecessary procedures who you know have very limited cash. This will often result in a loss of<br />

patient.<br />

The most important thing to remember about dentistry is that you are doing something very<br />

important for people. You are working to keep their teeth healthy and their self-esteem high.<br />

You do not want to make them feel bad about themselves in any way. Every aspect of your<br />

dental office is in essence a part of marketing. How you, your staff, and your office are<br />

presented to the patient affect how the patient feels about your dental practice. How the<br />

patient feels about your practice will greatly effect if she stays with you for the long run, what<br />

services she buys, and who she refers to you.<br />

Do you often feel frazzled and overwhelmed when you walk into your dental office, even<br />

though it's the first thing in the morning? Do you dream of being able to work a "normal"<br />

schedule, with more time to do the things you love to do? Is your dental business draining<br />

every ounce of energy from you so that you have nothing left by the end of the day?<br />

I've owned my own dental business for more than 20 years, and I've struggled with the same<br />

issues you're struggling with right now.<br />

But then I discovered a better way. And now I want to help you transform your dental business<br />

from overwhelm to total fulfillment. Visit the Conscious <strong>Dental</strong> <strong>Exhibitions</strong> and learn how to<br />

double the Income of Your <strong>Dental</strong> Business While Working 2 Hours Less per Day!<br />
