Powerful, cost-effective, ethical, compliant healthcare content marketing

How effective is content marketing? So effective that 30% of 1500 marketers polled for Semrush’s State of Content Marketing Report, spend 30%-70% of their total marketing budgets on it.

We know healthcare content marketing. Last year we produced 12,500 pieces of client content — 12,500! And the results?

  • 1.5 million plus client website visitors per month
  • 1 million plus total verified leads generated
  • 30 thousand plus position #1 search results

Can’t any marketing agency carry out healthcare content marketing? There’s no shortage of content marketing agencies. But healthcare content marketing presents a unique set of challenges. Two of them stand out.

1.) Healthcare content requires writers with specialized medical or healthcare knowledge. We have those writers. 2.) Regulatory and compliance issues abound; HIPAA, although usually the first to come to mind, is only one set of regulations. Healthcare marketers must also consider the Truth in Healthcare Marketing Act and Stark Law, as well as state and local regulations. Additionally, platforms like Google and Facebook have healthcare specific marketing guidelines. We give you strategic, high-quality, specialized healthcare content in line with rules and regulations.

Healthcare Content Marketing
Frequently Asked Questions

Healthcare content marketing is strategic storytelling. It supports your brand, communicates your mission, vision, and values, answers questions, and solves problems important to your audiences.

Content formats include audio, video, and written communication.

Strategic healthcare content marketing supports your communications initiatives by guiding audience segments along a psychological pathway toward goal completion.

This psychological pathway is more often known as a sales funnel. The three stages of the sales funnel are awareness, consideration and comparison, and action.

Strategic content anticipates the questions prospects typically have at each stage of the funnel and presents them with information that answers those questions and guides them to the next logical step towards contacting you, scheduling an appointment, donating, etc.

Healthcare content marketing is different from other forms of digital marketing for a number of reasons.

Depending on the specific healthcare products and services marketed, all healthcare marketing, unlike other marketing methods, must comply with multiple regulations on federal and local levels. These include, but are not limited to HIPAA, The Truth In Healthcare Marketing Act, and Stark Law, as well as state and federal regulations.

Nearly all digital advertising platforms have specific healthcare advertising guidelines and regulations. Ignorance, negligence, or willful non-compliance significantly delays timely ad approval and may result in account closure.

Google has 92% of the search market share in the US. Unbeknownst to many non-specialized marketers and agencies, Google ranks healthcare pages differently. Under what Google terms your-money-or-your-life (YMYL), health and finance content is held to higher standards and must meet strict guidelines in order to rank.

Healthcare is a complex subject. Health topics and procedures can be difficult for lay people to understand. Many people who prepare health marketing content struggle to make topics interesting or explain them in ways everyday people can understand and relate to. Even when they are successful at those tasks, marketers must be capable of a third component of strategic healthcare content: persuasiveness. Healthcare content creators must understand complex topics and distill them in an engaging and persuasive manner while maintaining compliance.

According to Google Health, roughly 7% (1 Billion) of daily search queries are health related. Healthcare digital content is the #1 source of healthcare-related information among people 18-64. Content and search engine optimization (SEO) go hand-in-hand. About 88% of people searching for local businesses on a mobile device call or visit the business within a day. Regardless of your healthcare organization’s goals, content marketing is vital to traffic, connection, and conversion. In 1996 Bill Gates famously wrote the essay “Content is King”. The title became a maxim that is as true today as it was then.

If, as noted above, content is king, then engagement is queen. Content marketing helps you get more patients by engaging prospects with high-quality content that answers questions, solves problems, anticipates next questions, and overcomes objections, leading them down the pathway to scheduling an appointment.

Content is your opportunity to communicate the value of your services, your personality, expertise, and authority. Content builds trust and establishes credibility and relatability. According to persuasion expert Dr. Robert Cialdini, all of these are necessary psychological components in influencing purchase decisions.

Towards the bottom of your funnel, after prospects have gone through the consideration and comparison stage and are nearing a decision, incentivizing contact or scheduling and allaying fears through content dramatically increases conversion, resulting in more patients

Healthcare provision is your arena. Healthcare marketing is ours. We could read volumes on brain surgery and develop a solid understanding of the subject, but you wouldn’t want us operating on you.

We are professionals immersed in the business and culture of marketing. We know from experience the content and strategies necessary to fill healthcare clients waiting rooms.
