Here are 5 awesome tips on using Facebook to grow your patient base!

1)    Promote your Facebook page to your current office staff.  Provide an incentive or discount for current client’s to ‘like’ your page.  I would put a computer available at your reception desk for patients to easily sign in and like your page, or just have them use their smart phone.

2)    Create an additional incentive for patients to send an update about their visit to your clinic and how satisfied they are with your care!  Throw in a free massage, adjustment, appointment or something that will keep them coming back for sending out this quick update.

3)    Include a link to your Facebook page in any patient communications such as brochures, flyers, invoices, emails to patients, or on your website.

4)    Send an email to your current patients telling them about your new Facebook page!  Ask them to “Like” your page.  You should also include information on your facebook page about your office’s mission, vision, and what your about!

5)    Ask your most faithful patients to suggest your Facebook Page to their friends and contacts who are interested in Chiropractic care.  As you know, your customers are the best source of referrals and new business!
