A dental marketing company specializes in providing marketing services for dental practices and clinics. This typically involves defining the right audience, creating a strategy, raising brand awareness, and promoting the client's dental services. The most common dental marketing methods include SEO, paid marketing, content marketing, and email marketing.
As of 2022, the global dental market is valued at $34 million and estimated to reach over $55 million by 2031. Because of this huge market, many marketing companies now focus on this niche and develop specialized dental marketing services packages.
What do dental marketing agencies do?
Dental marketing agencies create, run, and optimize marketing campaigns across different offline and online channels. Common dental marketing company services include:
Market and audience research
Content marketing strategy and content delivery
Email marketing campaigns
Pay-per-click (PPC) marketing
Search engine optimization (SEO)
Brand building and brand awareness
Social media campaigns
Video materials
Printed materials
The scope of services depends on the dental practitioners' needs. This can range from a single short-term paid campaign on Facebook ads to complex, multi-year dental marketing strategies.
What is the difference between dental marketing and dental advertising?
The main difference between dental marketing and dental advertising is that the latter is just one strategy of dental marketing focused on promotional messaging. Advertising attracts the audience, while marketing strategies can also educate and persuade audiences to purchase dental services. Here is a breakdown of the two terms:
Dental marketing is the overall strategy of promoting a brand and/or products. It involves many steps like market research, brand building, content creation, organic and paid campaigns, etc.
Dental advertising is the practice of creating and distributing messages that promote a brand and/or product.
What are the most effective digital marketing services for dentists?
Some of the most effective digital marketing services for dentists and dental clinics include:
1. Search engine optimization (SEO)
SEO is a combination of techniques that help a website rank high in search engine results for relevant keywords. This makes the website visible to a larger audience and helps increase lead generation.
Dentists need SEO because people tend to only click on the top few results on the search engine results page (SERP). Local SEO, which targets people searching for relevant services in their area, is especially essential. If your dental practice website ranks high for keywords like "dentist Chicago" or "teeth whitening in London", you’ll stand out from the competition in your area and attract more visitors.
2. Paid advertising
You can pay to run advertisements on online channels like Google, Bing, Facebook, and others to reach a large audience. The average Google ads conversion rate for dentists and dental services is 10.40%, higher than the average Google ad conversion rate of 3.75%.
3. Internal marketing
Internal marketing in dentistry is the practice of building relationships with existing patients, promoting long-term services, and gaining returning clients. Patient retention not only ensures more services per client but also attracts new ones through word of mouth.
The opposite approach is external dental marketing where the goal is to attract new clients.
How much do dental marketing agencies charge for their services?
Typically, dental marketing agencies charge from $100 to $300 per hour for their services. The top 50 dental marketing companies on DesignRush charge an average of $100.50/hour.
When agencies charge per hour, the costs depend on:
Team size and seniority
Project complexity
Project deadline
Here is a breakdown of typical dental marketing services monthly costs:
Type of dental marketing service
Pricing per month
Content marketing
$1000 - $2,000
SEO
$1000 - $2,000
Email marketing
$100 - $2,000
Social media management
$250 - $1,500
Roughly 21.8% of the dental marketing companies on DesignRush accept projects with a minimum budget of less than $1,000, while 1.1% have a $25,000 to $50,000 minimum budget.
Why hire a dental marketing firm?
You should hire a dental marketing firm to gain these business advantages:
1. Increase local visibility
There are over 1.2 million monthly searches in the U.S. for the phrase "dentist near me", indicating a large market of people looking for dental services.
A dental marketing agency can create and run paid ad campaigns that geographically target only your area, making sure you don’t waste money on the wrong audiences. The marketing agency can also optimize your Google Local Business Page listing so that it shows in the top results and advertises your brand in a positive light.
2. Get ahead of the competition
The American Dental Association (ADA) predicts a surplus of dentists by 2040, meaning that the market is getting increasingly saturated. To ensure that your business stays competitive, you should consider hiring a dental marketing firm. Professional marketers will apply the right tools and techniques to increase your online visibility and ensure more leads and customers.
3. Improve conversions
Even if your website has a lot of traffic, what matters most is how many visitors become patients. A dental marketing agency has the expertise to create a “marketing funnel” that guides potential leads through the process of becoming your clients.
The agency can educate audiences about different dental procedures, address their pain points, and establish your dental practice as reliable and trustworthy. The goal is to not only improve lead generation but also the number of leads that convert into patients.
How do you choose the right dentist marketing company for your business?
Before choosing a dentist marketing company, it is important to go through these steps:
Know your marketing goals: Define if you want to focus on upselling services to existing patients, attracting new patients, or both. Decide which kind of services (e.g., general, esthetic, periodontal, orthodontic, pediatric, endodontic, etc.) you want to advertise.
Find the right expertise: Depending on your target demographics (e.g., older patients in need of oral surgery, younger patients looking for cosmetic procedures), you may need to prioritize advertising on certain online channels. Pick the dentist marketing agency that has expertise in the service you need, like Facebook or Instagram marketing.
Set a budget: Choose the maximum amount you can invest in dental marketing, including organic and paid campaigns, SEO, and other methods.
Review agency experience: Ask for a portfolio of relevant dental marketing work, case studies, reviews, or clients you can contact for feedback.
Consider local agencies: Since your target audience is people living close to your dental practice, think about hiring a local agency that is familiar with the local dental market and the specifics of targeting the locals.
Ask about the strategy: Find out how the agency plans to create a custom strategy to meet your goals.
Inquire about analytics and reporting: Digital marketing efforts like search engine rankings, number of website visitors, submitted forms, paid ad revenue, etc. are easy to measure. Ask the agency about the tools it uses to track these metrics and how often you can expect to get progress reports.
Interview: Set up interviews with a couple of dental marketing agencies to discuss the project in detail and check if they are a good fit for your team.
Make a decision: After reviewing the RFPs, choose the best-suited agency and establish all project development processes.
If you need a custom-made list of dental marketing agencies, contact us. Our team will match you with the most suitable agencies based on your list of requirements. You can browse our Marketplace for more details.
What questions should you ask dentist marketing companies before you hire one?
You should ask a dentist marketing company questions about its relevant dental industry experience, the types of services it provides and recommends for your business, and the approach it will take to delivering your marketing campaigns.
These include the following:
Its Relevant Background
How many years of experience do you have in dental marketing?
Do you have a portfolio of relevant projects for dental practices and clinics?
Are you partnered with any major advertising platforms like Google or Bing Ads?
Do your team members have relevant marketing certifications like HubSpot, Google SEO, Meta Digital Marketing, and others?
Do you work with any other dental practices in our area? Will there be a conflict of interest?
Company Services and Processes
How do you make clients stand out from the local competition?
How do you promote staff biographies and company expertise?
What social media channels do you cover in your dental marketing campaigns?
What is your content strategy? How many blog posts per month can you deliver?
Can you set up an online patient scheduling portal?
What is your SEO strategy to help a website rank higher? What results can you guarantee?
What does your email marketing strategy entail? How often do you send out newsletters and promotional emails?
The Project
How do we define project milestones? What happens if they are not met?
How many people will be on the project? What are their roles?
What metrics will you use to define the success of this dental marketing campaign?
How often will you provide us with status reports and relevant metrics?
What is the expected deadline to successfully deliver the campaign? What happens if the project is late?
What is the planned budget? Are there any additional costs we can expect?
What kind of support can you provide after the project is finished?
