/04

Educational Content

/05

Reputation Management

Proactive review acquisition, monitoring across platforms (Google, Facebook, healthcare directories), and professional response strategies. Reputation moves admissions.

/06

HIPAA-Compliant Marketing

Consent procedures for testimonials, secure handling of patient data, compliant retargeting, accessibility (ADA/WCAG). We work with your compliance team.

/02 — How we work

Four phases.
Tied to admissions.

We measure what grows your census. Vanity metrics get reported; decisions get made on admissions and cost-per-admission.

01

Audit & compliance review

Audit current marketing, review compliance posture, map the competitive landscape — paid auction, organic rivals, AI visibility — before recommending anything.

02

Channel strategy

SEO, PPC, content, reputation, and AEO sequenced based on where the biggest gaps are. Budget allocation transparent and tied to expected admissions, not impressions.

03

Execute

Monthly execution across the chosen channels with weekly check-ins on PPC, content production cadence, and reputation work. Compliance review on every asset.

04

Tie to admissions

Monthly reporting connects spend to inquiries, qualified leads, and admissions — not just clicks and rankings. We measure what actually grows your census.

/03 — Common questions

Quick answers.
Real ones.

/01 Do you have experience with HIPAA-compliant marketing? +

Yes. We work with consent procedures for testimonials, secure handling of patient data, compliant retargeting and ad platforms, and accessibility standards. We collaborate with your compliance team on every campaign.

/02 What about Google's healthcare advertising policies? +

Treatment center Google Ads require LegitScript certification and specific ad copy approaches. We handle the certification process, set up campaigns inside the policy framework, and stay current as Google updates rules — which happens often in this vertical.

/03 What's a typical monthly investment? +

SEO typically runs $5K–$20K/mo depending on market competition. PPC requires $15K+ in ad spend plus management. Most facilities run a combined SEO + PPC + reputation program of $20K–$50K/mo. We scope honestly based on your market and admission targets.

/04 How do you measure success? +

We measure admissions, cost per admission, qualified lead quality by channel, and revenue attribution back to source — not just traffic and rankings. The vanity metrics get reported, but the decisions get made on real business outcomes.

/05 Do you work with sober living, IOP, or other levels of care? +

Yes. Detox, residential, PHP, IOP, outpatient, sober living, and aftercare — the marketing playbook adapts to each level. We have experience across the full continuum of care.
