Marketing specialist for healthcare providers

A marketing specialist for private healthcare providers

Clinics, practices and rehab providers need patients who book and attend, in a category where ad policy is strict. I build condition-led campaigns, written to the rules, that fill the diary.

  • 388 conversions at £25.64 over 15 months for one clinic
  • 282 conversions at £18.23 for another
  • Wording written to Google and Meta health policy

Short answer

Marketing for private healthcare providers works when Google Ads covers people searching for a condition or service, pages answer the search directly, and every call and form is tracked to the ad. Health is a restricted category on Google and Meta, so copy describes the service and not the person's condition. One clinic reached 388 conversions at £25.64 over 15 months, and another 282 at £18.23.

How the buying decision works

The ads follow the buying behaviour, so it is worth being precise about it.

The first 90 days

1

Week 1: the numbers and the tracking

Where leads come from today, what a customer is worth, what you can afford per enquiry. Call and form tracking goes in before any money is spent.

2

Weeks 2 to 4: the first campaigns

Google Search for people already looking, Meta for people who have not started looking yet, each pointing at a page built for that audience.

3

Weeks 4 to 8: cut waste, find winners

Search terms, audiences and ads that burn budget are removed. What is working gets more of it.

4

Weeks 8 to 12: scale what pays back

Enquiries are matched to real customers, so budget moves to what produces revenue and not just form fills.

Common questions

Can healthcare providers advertise on Google and Meta?

Yes, within each platform's health policy and the ASA's CAP Code. Wording has to describe the service and avoid claiming results.

What does an enquiry cost for a clinic?

Real accounts ranged from £18.23 to £25.64 per conversion in sterling. Yours depends on area, condition and competition.

Do you work with the NHS?

No. The work is for private providers and practices.

Can you track bookings, not only enquiries?

Yes, with call tracking and a way to mark which enquiries booked, set up in the first weeks.

Is this legal advice?

No. Check platform policies and your regulator or professional body.
