What You Don't Know About Attracting Chiropractic Patients

By Tim McGarvey


We have previously discussed how Facebook acts as merely a distraction for chiropractic businesses who are trying to expand their client base.

The hype around social media on the internet has tried to convince businesses that using Facebook and other outlets guarantees a large number of clients for any company. They provide ridiculous guarantees like obtaining enough "likes" on your Facebook page will automatically obtain new clients.

This is not the case. Many chiropractic practitioners lose large amounts of money attempting to use social media instead of focusing on the major issues that are currently present in their marketing methods.

Visibility is a Problem

In order to stand apart from the other chiropractors and attract new patients, make your marketing department your own and don't rely on those methods that are used by the competition to draw in chiropractic new patients.

In order to successfully expand your practice, you need to show the new patient that you are different from the other practitioners in your local area. You need to set yourself apart from the competition by providing new patients with exactly what they need when it comes to services and wellness products.

As a practitioner yourself, you are secure in the knowledge that your services and products are equaled by no other.

Many people perceive practitioners in this field as being somewhat disingenuous so a lack of visibility can only serve to heighten this misconception. When your practice is not sufficiently visible, you become just a face in a crowd and the legitimacy of your business can be easily questioned.

Making Your Business Visible to Your Ideal Client

When your number of clients is not sufficient, the most likely problem area is visibility. Have you made yourself sufficiently visible to your ideal customer?

Before answering this question, take a moment. What type of client are you looking for? Does an answer immediately come to you or do you have to think about it?

Unfortunately, all too many practitioners and other types of small business owners find it difficult to come up with a spontaneous answer to this question. When you actually know your target audience, the answer will be on your tongue immediately.

Knowing your target audience will allow you to better utilize your marketing resources and save yourself a lot of money and time as well.

Acquiring new clients becomes simpler Connecting with new clients becomes simpler. Speaking with new clients becomes simpler. Comprehending their needs and meeting them becomes simpler.

Instead of spending large amounts of money, the proper marketing will allow you spend less and acquire more.

These are just some of the reasons why becoming visible to your target audience is so critical.
