Challenges: Everett Physio, a leading clinic, faced the challenge of increasing patient appointments in a highly competitive healthcare market. Their primary goals were to attract more patients, reduce the cost per appointment, and enhance the overall quality of leads.
Strategic Overhaul: To achieve these goals, we implemented a comprehensive Google Ads strategy that included targeted ad campaigns, optimized landing pages, and enhanced lead tracking.
1. Launching Targeted Google Ads Campaigns: We created multiple Google Ads campaigns tailored to specific physiotherapy services and conditions. This involved:
- Targeted Keywords: Selecting high-intent keywords related to physiotherapy services such as “back pain relief,” “sports injury treatment,” and “physiotherapy near me.”
- Compelling Ad Copy: Crafting ads that highlighted the clinic’s expertise, patient success stories, and special offers for new patients.
- Geo-targeting: Focusing on local clients within the clinic’s service area to ensure relevance and higher conversion rates.
2. Enhanced Lead Tracking and Management: We implemented a robust lead tracking system using CRM tools and Google Ads conversion tracking. This included:
- Lead Quality Assessment: Differentiating between high-quality leads likely to convert and lower-quality leads.
- Conversion Tracking: Using Google Ads conversion tracking to monitor which ads and keywords were driving the most valuable leads.
- Revenue Attribution: Linking leads to their eventual revenue contribution to understand the ROI of different campaigns.
3. Optimizing Campaign Performance: Continuous optimization of the Google Ads campaigns ensured improved performance over time. This included:
- A/B Testing: Testing different ad copies, landing pages, and call-to-action buttons to find the most effective combinations.
- Bid Adjustments: Adjusting bids based on the performance data to maximize visibility and conversions while controlling costs.
- Remarketing: Implementing remarketing campaigns to re-engage potential clients who had previously visited the website but not converted.
