No one saw it coming; the phenomenal success of web 2.0 sites like YouTube, MySpace, and Facebook is unheard of. Back in 2005, I began to sense the use of web 2.0 for chiropractic marketing, and had humble expectations for the results I'd get. Little did I know the remarkable power of web 2.0 and video marketing would propel my chiropractic practice and other ventures into the stratosphere.
The amount of leverage that social media sites allowed me was tremendous. It was truly remarkable how much of my time was freed up by using the power of Web 2.0, and leveraging out the marketing work to other employees. This kind of marketing is absolutely free, so no longer was I in the hole due to overpriced marketing firms that yielded no results. I began 3 years ago to meet people in my community through MySpace, and the number of my new acquaintances grew to 50 people almost every single day. The traffic that this was bringing to my website was phenomenal. As I optimized my profile and experimented with different things, the phone calls from future patients just started to pour in. I was amazed by what was happening.
The results and success that I experienced with this kind of online marketing was almost instantaneous. In fact, I experienced dramatic results within 24 hours. I successfully was able to brand myself as the chiropractic authority in my community, and therefore entice countless new patients to utilize my services. I was able to constantly keep in touch with my new friends online and send information to my massive amount of subscribers. When you're keeping in touch with several thousand people on a regular basis, there's basically an avalanche of success that begins to flow your way.
One of the things that I was able to capitalize on very early in my social network endeavors was simple chiropractic video marketing. Making videos and uploading them is a fairly simple, quick process yet so few chiropractors have even thought to marketing to their community this way. A word of advice, though. After you shoot your video from a video camera or digital camera, many times you will need to compress the actual file using Windows Movie Maker (if you have a PC) or iMovie (if you have a MAC). Then, you will be able to edit or upload to a video sharing website like YouTube.
Videos get indexed extremely well by search engines, if you understand basic and advanced optimization strategies. I've been able to drive massive amounts of highly-targeted visitors to my website with video, which has basically made me a local celebrity. In conjunction, I've been able to bring in many new patients that have seen my direct response videos. They feel like they know me before they ever step into my office. They are able to follow me on my channels to get new health information, as I overwhelm them with consistent value and not spam-based advertisement.
Almost half of the content online today is video, and its time you jumped on the bandwagon and put your chiropractic marketing into high gear. Remember, the more material you have online in the best variety, the more credibility you gain. Just imagine Googling someone or something, and coming up with a particular office or practice in multiple top billing positions. That person would automatically appear to be the authority on something, right?
I take my viewers on fun journeys in my videos to really give a total experience of learning and putting people at ease. I've filmed tours of my office, talked in detail about my practice, and given pointers and tips to people searching for answers to their chiropractic questions. I've even shot segments on vacation in Costa Rica! When you keep the videos fun and interesting, people are going to always want to come back and see more. They will perhaps share your videos with friends, and things only can grow more from there.
In your chiropractic video marketing campaigns, make sure to also crank-out at least 1-2 videos per week. You can do them yourself or outsource production. If you outsource, though, you will pay a pretty penny. I recommend doing it yourself, as it's so simple and free. It's also a good idea to invite people to subscribe to your YouTube video channel at the end of your video messages. If you directly ask them, they will be more inclined to do so.
Make sure you're relaxed and having a good time while making these videos. You want to present yourself as being the warm, professional, and friendly person that you are. That way, people will feel like they know you, and they'll want to stop in to your office and utilize your services.
Lastly, find a chiropractic coach with a proven track record who's been leveraging social media and social networking the past several years. Since the social media landscape is so vast, it's a good idea to find a consultant that solely specializes in this type of chiropractic marketing. This is not the type of material that can be effectively taught for an hour at a multi-topic seminar. After you find your mentor, hang-on for one incredible ride. Your chiropractic practice and business live may never be the same again!
