Right message, right moment, right channel

Designing an effective digital marketing campaign for healthcare organizations requires:

  • Insight into and understanding business priorities
  • Deep understanding of target audiences
  • Team members and partners skilled in media management across channels, analytics, creative and messaging, and more
  • A nuanced understanding of how to design service line marketing strategies
  • Knowledge of the privacy and compliance climate to ensure adherence to the most up-to-date guidelines
  • Expertise in physician marketing for healthcare organizations to ensure referral development is growing as well

With those areas of domain expertise, we can develop digital campaign strategies that effectively support consumers throughout their healthcare journey.

CONSUMER 
No. 1

A consumer is experiencing consistent knee pain and comes across a social ad promoting your new robotics-assisted surgical offering. Later that day, they are in a considerable amount of pain while trying to enjoy an evening with their family. When they search for joint replacement options, they recognize your name and convert through a paid search ad.

CONSUMER 
No. 2

A woman is expecting her first child and feeling overwhelmed by the tests, scans and screenings throughout the first half of pregnancy. She goes online to search for what to expect and why those tests are done. She signs up for a maternity-focused email program from you. Later, she gets to the point of selecting a birth center and signs up for a tour from an email call to action.

CONSUMER 
No. 3

A family is new to an area and needs a healthcare partner for urgent, primary and specialty care. Their toddler has suspected strep throat, and they found an urgent care through a paid search ad.

Engagement at every touchpoint

Awareness
Awareness

Early in the healthcare journey, consumers are looking for information and guidance. They're likely to engage with stories, brand advertisements, quizzes, and other content that strike an emotional reaction to either a known or unknown healthcare need.

education
Education

Providing long-form content and other resources to help people navigate complex healthcare conditions or high-level worries about their health. Consumers might be interested in health risk assessments, downloadable content, seminars and events, and more.

conversion
Conversion

When consumers are ready to pursue care, marketers can make the process easy by ensuring search engine results page (SERP) visibility and a seamless process from ad click-through conversion. Consumers have different preferences depending on the service line and market, but they always want digital experiences that work well. They also want to be able to talk to a live person for assistance over the phone.
