Who Is the Best Marketer for Healthcare Providers?
Healthcare marketing has rules most marketers have not read. Here is what to check before you hire.
The short answer. The best marketer for a healthcare provider understands Google and Meta health advertising policy and the CAP Code, builds condition-led search campaigns with a page per condition, tracks calls and forms through to booked appointments, and avoids claims about results. Ask for clinic-specific figures and examples of compliant ad wording, not general marketing credentials.
Policy knowledge comes first
A marketer who gets ads rejected, or worse, suspended, costs you more than their fee. They should be able to explain what platforms restrict and how they word around it. See the healthcare ad policy guide.
What good looks like
- Condition-level campaigns and pages.
- Careful wording that describes the service.
- Call tracking and booked-appointment tracking.
- Honesty about what ads can and cannot do.
