MARKETING TIED TO REVENUE

Marketing Measured by Patients Seen, Not Clicks

A strong marketing program brings in the right patients for the right services, with the insurance your practice accepts. We plan campaigns around your capacity, your specialties, and your payer contracts, then track results through to booked appointments.

Every program includes call tracking, form tracking, and a monthly performance review.

SERVICES

Nine Ways to Reach the Right Patients

Paid Media

Elara Associates plans and manages paid campaigns across Google, Microsoft, Meta, YouTube, and programmatic display.

Social Media Marketing

Patients look at a practice's social profiles to judge whether it's active, approachable, and credible.

SEO

Most patients start their search for a provider online.

Performance Marketing

Performance marketing connects every dollar of spend to a measurable result.

PPC

When someone searches for a specialist near them, your practice should appear at the top.

GEO

Patients now ask AI assistants and AI-powered search engines which provider to see and what a treatment involves.

Email Marketing

Your existing patients are your most valuable audience.

Content Marketing

Elara Associates writes service pages, articles, patient guides, and video scripts for medical practices.

Corporate Branding

A clear brand helps patients remember you, helps referring physicians recommend you, and helps recruits choose you.
