With the healthcare industry becoming increasingly competitive, investing in marketing campaigns becomes essential for attracting and retaining the right clients. However, it’s one thing to create marketing campaigns and another to determine if they are successful. Here are some ways to determine if your healthcare marketing efforts are worth your time and money.
Website traffic
Your website is your representative on the internet, where your potential clients will visit to determine if your hospital can offer the needed treatment. Moreover, they can get in touch with you and schedule appointments. That said, you can judge your marketing campaign performance based on how much traffic your website generates.
Experts recommend using Google Analytics to determine your website traffic while keeping an eye on areas that need improvement. For instance, you can pinpoint the pages that your audience frequents often, and make efforts to make them more engaging. As a tip, monitor where the traffic is coming from, whether social media, ads, or Google searches.
Social media engagement
As a healthcare professional, social media is non-negotiable, as it allows you to engage and interact with your audience while showcasing your brand and expertise. Since social media is an effective marketing channel, you’ll find it helpful to also measure how successful it is.
As a tip, track important metrics such as likes, followers, views, comments, and shares. This can help you determine what content appeals to your audience and what platforms deliver the best results.
Conversion rates
Conversion rates are a big deal when measuring your marketing campaigns’ success. Conversion rates track and measure the number of people who book an appointment or make enquiries after visiting your website.
By tracking your conversion rates, you can figure out how effective your website’s content, design, and call-to-action are. You can also identify aspects that should be improved to increase your conversation rates, so feel free to consider this.
Patient feedback
Your patients will always have an opinion of your clinic and services, and their feedback can be an effective way to track your healthcare marketing efforts. This is because their opinions can help you understand how they and potential patients will perceive your medical practice.
Experts recommend collecting your patient feedback through testimonials, surveys and reviews. However, you should analyse this information to determine what you can improve to please your patients and win their loyalty and recommendations.
Search engine rankings
Your website’s search engine rankings shows where your site appears on every search engine results page (SERP). The higher your rankings, the more traffic your website will attract, and vice versa. Therefore, make it a point to track this important metric to ascertain your website rankings. While at it, pay attention to keywords that drive traffic to your site and look for ways to reduce your bounce rates.
