Dental Marketing Seminars : Marketing Invisalign

By: Ed O Keefe

As a dental marketing consultant, I hold dental marketing seminars that would teach dentists on how to market Invisalign in their profession. Invisalign is a solution offered to patients who want to achieve a whiter, stronger teeth. But in dental profession, there is always a challenge on how to market our solutions to our patients... and marketing Invisalign would bear the same challenge for dentists. In my dental marketing seminars, I always tell my audience that marketing Invisalign successfully in their practice is achievable through two ways: first is have a staff that's well-trained to handle patients, and second is hold an Invisalign open house. In my dental marketing seminars, I define these two ways in detail so that my audience will have a clearer view on the subject matter.

First Is Through Your Staff....

In my dental marketing seminars, I always tell the dentists that they should always have a staff that's well-educated and well-trained to handle each patients concern. Also, always remember that dental teamwork is very important. So how do you do it? In our case, we ask our patients what we call our "magic question": "On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your smile?". With this question we can have an inkling of how much the patient would like to go for the solution. Then after they give us their respective answers, we would then ask them: "What would make it a 10?". And this is where teamwork comes in. As a dental team, we listen to their various answers. We take down notes so that we can effectively give back and sell the treatment to our patients. Then also we remind the patients of the benefits of the solution. We tell them that it's invisible, it's removable, and gives much confidence to patients. Stating this advantages would be very helpful in selling the treatment as well.

Second Is Through Holding An Invisalign Open House....

In my dental marketing seminars, I also tell the dentists that they should conduct an Invisalign Open House. I remind them to keep two things in mind when doing such an open house, and these are, first, market your Invisalign day appropriately, and second, have two schedules for the event.

On Marketing Your Invisalign Day Appropriately....

The big mistake that a lot of people do is that they decide to do the open house, but they send out a mailer to their existing patients, and they get 1 to 3 phone calls. You should be expecting this, because if your going to do an entire open house,and you have an opportunity to make $5000 a case or say $15,000 net per case, you need to throw more money at it. And you need to have your staff get people to come to it. So, this is what you should do. You have to start planning the promotions of it 4 or 5 weeks minimum in advanced, so as to get 2 to 3 direct mail pieces to your existing and inactive patient base in that time (so once a week for the first three weeks to promote it). If in case you want to use e-mails, you should definitely go and just send out e-mails. If you want to go through phone numbers, either you're going to do two things: you can physically call everybody; or just do a voice broadcast, which will go out to every single home and it will share with people the details and where to call.

On Having Two Schedules For The Event....

The reasons behind having two schedules for the event are two things: first, you can use the same marketing dollar to promote both events; and second, some people who can't make it on a given schedule, say Wednesday night, will be able to make it on a Saturday schedule between 10:00 to 1:00, so the endpoint here is that you will enable them to have a dual option for the people, and let them choose more dentistry as well.

So these are the strategies that I teach the dentists in marketing the Invisalign solution in the dental marketing seminars that I hold. I also remind them that if they're going to have a lot of Invisalign patients, they will refer more than traditional patients will, and also choose more cosmetic dentistry in your practice!
