We spend so little here, every dollar needs to be working for us.
Healthcare marketing is broken. We’ve all seen it. We all experience it.Have you done a billboard for a campaign because “your CEO will see it on the way home”? Have you worked on a branding project for 8 months only to have your competitor drop identical messaging into the marketplace just days before the launch? Do you use the same marketing mix for campaign after campaign because you really haven’t a clue which of your channels are paying off and which aren’t?It seems that more and more marketing departments are just going through the motions. In an environment where we’re under increasing pressure to demonstrate meaningful results we spend our time building “awareness” rather than building service line volumes. We can’t go on like this!
No excuses anymore – lots of measurement. Changes the game. Measurement needs to be something that matters, though.
Problem statement: Marketing campaigns aren’t results-driven. Too often marketing campaigns get hung up on measuring soft metrics - like brand awareness. If they even measure at all. No amount of focus groups and gut instinct will do it – you need to see your messages and tactics perform in the market. Responsive campaigns take a different approach. They focus on results. Real, tangible numbers. You start with an agreed-upon goal.
Awareness was great in the age of Mad Men, but not today.Taken a metric designed to price billboards or tv spots - # of eyeballs – and made it somehow a metric of success
What about a campaign that brought in 73 colonoscopies?
Problem statement: Marketing campaigns take a long time to launch and an even longer time to see value.The typical cycle. Months and months and then a big reveal. Then what? What value do you have to show to your CEO for that investment? When will you ever see value? Responsive campaigns move faster than that. With this approach, the foundation of your campaign is live within 20 days, so you don’t have to wait to see value.
Long time to valueLots of wasted effortWhat if the messaging doesn’t work? What if you’re hitting the wrong audience? What if your internal folks drop the ball? Don’t know for ages (if at all)
Problem statement: Marketing campaigns aren’t flexible. It’s the day of your big campaign launch… what if the message didn’t resonate the way you expected? What if something happened in your community the day before your big reveal and then you look insensitive, out of touch? Responsive campaigns work in two week sprints. This allows you to make constant and rapid adjustments to reflect changes in your market or new information.
Look to that Gantt chart from before. You put a plan in place, you execute. How does data on the ground steer that execution? How does the strategy change based on initial successes and failure?It doesn’t. What feedback do you get on a billboard? Meaningful feedback, not your neighbor being nice. TV? Radio?The reality is that by the time you know if you’ve moved the needle, it’s too late to make changes.
We’re all spending more time online. If you’re not connecting through digital media, you’re now missing people that you once caught. Campaigns are less effective without digital

So here we have our agile marketing universe, with three rings circling a goal. We’ll call this outer ring the attraction orbit – almost like a force field pulling in prospects toward the center.The middle ring is where you actually connect with prospective patients – where they touch down and learn a little about the landscape.The inner ring is where conversions happen – where people take specific action toward a goal.You’ll be seeing a lot of this image as context to our discussion about agile marketing. Let’s look at each orbit.
Starting from the outside in with attraction. Your goal in this orbit is to attract attention, to be noticed, to build relationships. The activity in this orbit includes content marketing, but also encompasses things like Pay Per Click campaigns and offline initiatives such as billboards, tv, radio and direct mail.
The connection ring includes things with more substance and staying power. You’re giving prospects a place to land and, once they arrive, you’re showing them around, taking them to related places, and giving them opportunities to connect.
This inner circle is where things really start happening. An actual exchange is taking place. Users identify themselves…They get something, you get something – and they move closer to the center.
