Surprise! Over the past five years, your patients have changed and it’s time your marketing changed to reach them. A few years ago, my parents - Baby Boomers - were your best potential patient. My mom and dad are both avid newspaper readers and they love to watch television every night. But today, I’m your best patient. As Baby Boomers get older, they’re being replaced by people my age. We’re millennials! And we are projected to overtake Baby Boomers as the largest generation by the end of this year. In 2019 alone, millennials will spend 800 billion dollars. By 2020 we’ll spend $1.4 trillion… that’s a lot of $$$. We should be your target market.

Here’s what you need to know. Millennials like me are reaching our first adult milestones - we’re starting new jobs, getting married, buying homes and having kids. We are actively searching for local healthcare services that meet our needs.

HOW WILL YOU REACH ME?

I don’t get the newspaper, I don’t look at the direct mail advertisements in my mailbox and I don’t watch much broadcast television. I’m not even sure if the radio in my car works - I plug in my phone and listen to Internet radio. I use my smartphone and my laptop all day long. If I can’t find you on these devices, you don’t exist in my world.

I use Google, Facebook and YouTube to research products, services, the best ramen spot in town, the closest coffee shop to me… pretty much anything before I decide on a purchase. And when I’m ready to schedule an appointment for healthcare services, you better believe I’m searching your website for local contact info, customer reviews and any content that speaks to my needs and expectations.

My advice? First, make sure your website works seamlessly for mobile and desktop. Mobile visitors account for approximately half of web traffic worldwide (Source: Statista), so if they don’t have a good experience on your site, you’re driving away a huge portion of your potential traffic. Next, take a hard look at your marketing and advertising strategy. Are you balancing traditional marketing efforts like newspaper ads, radio and TV with digital advertising? If not, I can’t find you.

The good news is that you can call the digital experts at Netsertive to modernize your marketing. We’re here to help you learn how easy and effective it can be to attract new patients with digital advertising. Call us today at 1-844-262-3513 and let’s talk.
