Once you’ve completed plan development and software setup it’s crucial to promote your new program to patients in your office and surrounding area.

Internal and external marketing will play an essential role in the success of your program. There are countless marketing options, the biggest mistake is to do nothing. Good intentions will not sell your plan or attract new patients. Take the time to sit down and decide the best marketing chanels for your area and the demographic you are looking to attract. Then assign someone on your team to take action with clear goals, due dates and follow through!

The PlanPro marketing starter kit is provided so you don’t have to start from scratch.

Each marketing design is customized to fit the decisions you made for your program, complete with your practice logo.
