    10. Turbo Lead Generator: Private Pay Practice Lead Generation for Qualified Leads: Lowest Cost Per Lead Guaranteed!

      On this episode of Turbo Charged MD we will discuss our breakthrough Lead Generation program, The Turbo Lead Generator. Lead generation is the crux of fueling any private pay medical practice revenues. There are lots of "expert" lead generation companies who fall short on driving highly responsive, "qualified" leads. There is a lot of skill required in matching potential patients with medical specialists who serve their local community. 

       A great lead generation program finds granular details about prospects demographics, buyer persona, buying habits and intent to invest in the desired treatment and service. This is not about quantity, rather a matter of quality that when achieved can be ramped up for quantity equaling the perfect storm of revenue streams. 

      What sets the Turbo Lead Generator Program apart from other lead gen programs? 

      1. Specifically designed for Private Pay Medical Practices.
      2. Mutli-dimensional. Can generate high quality prospects for any treatment, program and service.
      3. Campaigns are customizable and are put through extensive A/B testing prior to deployment.  
      4. The cost per lead is only $35! You only pay for the leads that are generated. High ROI! 
      5. Multi- faceted program utilizing highly responsive algorithms and granular, detailed buyer data.
      6. Landing page driven so prospects cannot auto-fill their inquiries (better engagement). 
      7. Can be targeted locally, regionally, or nationally. 
      8. No contracts or long-term commitments.

        • BioPhotonic Scanner Interview with Dr. Kim Crawford: Revenue Generating Opportunity

          On this episode of Turbo Charged MD, Rich Force, CEO of Medical Marketing Solutions interviews Dr. Kim Crawford, Quadruple Board Certified Physician in Internal, Sports, Preventative and Anti-Aging Medicine, on the opportunity to derive addtional practice revenue with the Pharmanex BioPhotonic Scanner Program. In our interview, Dr. Crawford addresses the following:

          How does raman spectroscopy work/how accurate is this scanner?

          Raman spectroscopy uses a focused beam of visible green light, directed into the palm of the hand, where carotenoids layer out. Those carotenoids rotate the green light into blue light which is then calculated (quantified) by the scanner. This non-invasive measurement is more accurate than a blood test.

          How much does a scan cost the patient?

          You can decide what you want to charge. Most practices charge $20 per scan.

          How much do the supplements cost?

          WE have packages from as little as $30/month to the premium package of $300/month. The average Functional practice patient tends to be higher end.

          Does this involve my staff?

          Usually it involves the receptionist, nurse and office manager, yes. In small concierge practices where the doctor does his/her own scanning; it can just be "you."

          Who trains my staff?

          I will send a downloadable training package that includes the instructional videos I have produced, documents, flow charts, and everything you need to get your staff started. I will then personally get on the phone with your staff to review procedures, word tracking, as well as  website use and so on.

          I have been approached by other reps-why should I do this with you?

          We're fun!. We don't charge for training; unlike the other folks trying to do this program. My medical expertise may also be of value to you. Lastly, my training program is a copyrighted program my partner and I created, which is not available to others. It has been shown to significantly increase office revenue production compared to the voice coaching only method employed by others.

          What kind of money are we talking about?

          If you do 4 scans per day, 5 days per week, and 2 of the 4 patients say "yes" to going on supplements, it will take you 10 weeks to place 100 patients on supplements; with an average Functional medicine practice price of $150/month. That will then yield you $6000 per month revenue; and that doesn't even include scan fees!

          I feel funny about selling something to patients-why is this different?

          National statistics show that 75% of your patients have tried a MVI sometime during the past year. Right now, due to COVID, sales are even higher, as patients try to boost their immune systems. The scanner allows you to measure. The supplements are $-back guaranteed by the company. Why should large companies profit from selling poor quality supplements when you are the one caring for your patients, not them?

          **For additional information on how to add this program to your practice, please contact us at 888-292-1147**

Is my ED a condition in its own right, to be treated with PDE5 inhibitors and left at that, or is it a sign that I may have other problems that need attention, extending to therapies other than or in addition to Viagra?

                • Capturing Practice Market Share From Your Competition

                  On this episode of Turbo Charged MD, we discuss how to capture market share from your competitors during the Corona Virus Economy. 


                  1. Some private pay medical practices  are currently open and some are not as we work in the current Corona Virus economy. We know that we face some short term challenges as we readjust our short and long term thoughts and strategies.
                  2. Work diligently woth your marketing company to fortify your SEO, keep your Social Media current .
                  3. SERP monitoring is extremely important: Search Engine Results Pages (SERP) are the pages displayed by search engines in response to a query by a user. The main component of the SERP is the listing of results that are returned by the search engine in response to a keyword query).
                  4. Look at websites of your top 3-5 competitors (in your immediate locale) if you know (or have good reason to believe) the competition has closed or stopped marketing and potentially has stopped their SEO. 
                  5. Your marketing company should put  them (competition) on SERP monitoring to confirm they are dropping and for treatments they confirmed are dropping they should focus the short term SEO so that Google's algorithm will trade those positions.  When the competition opens their doors, soon or if at all, they will have lost those positions whereas you now have them, and the visibility on search and traffic that comes with it.
                  6. Commit 5-6% of your Gross Revenues to marketing in the current climate.
                  7. Record Videos: Embed the video in a blog post and include the transcript.
                  8. SEO and online marketing are avenues to build connection and trust with people and how you do that during challenging times matters just as much as when you’re ready to serve or sell them directly.
                  9. If you do not have a digital strategy to navigate you through these turbulent times, please contact us for a free marketing and consulting session.

                  10. Best Small Investments/Adjustments To Make in Your Medical Practice During Lean Times

                    On this episode of Turbo Charged MD, we discuss suggested small investments and adjustments you can make in your medical practice as many private pay practices are experiencing a slow down due to Covid-19.

                    Your phones are not ringing like they usually do, patients are cancelling appointments and new prospects are not calling or submitting leads. What do you do? Don't panic! We are a few months into this pandemic and hopefully getting closer to the end or at least to a point where we can resume business back to "as normal as possible".  You have a few choices:

                    A: Panic and make irrational decisions.

                    B: Do nothing.

                    C: Be proactive and take the time you normally wouldn't have to re-evaluate the "business side" of your practice and strategize as to how to fine tune areas you may have been lacking in and be prepared to come out leaner and meaner.

                    Today we will talk about Option "C", be PROACTIVE.  We will cover the following topics:

                    1: Evaluate your overall business plan.  Look back at the data from the last year on each treatment you are offering. What are you most effective and profitable treatments and are there specific treatments that you are investing in that maybe it is time to stop offering them. Look at your ROI. Is your marketing output and patient demand worth keeping those specfic treatments or is it time to pause or eliminate them all together?

                    2: Take a good look at your Website. Is it truly a good representation of your physical practice or do you need to make some changes both aesthetically and in functionality to truly represent your practice.  Is it easy to navigate, easy to understand, clearly educate your current patients, have call to action and are you easy to contact?

                    3: Look at your Marketing Budget: Have you made the small investment into your Technical SEO or put all of your eggs in the Paid Ad bucket. Technical SEO when done correctly helps you organically rank on the search engines (long term play) vs. Paid Ads (short term hits). Depending on your practice and the parameters of your local area that you are trying to cover, your SEO investment which SHOULD include ALL of your SOCIAL MEDIA management, website management and maintenance, reputation management, etc, should be no more that $595-$995 per month. 

                    4: Training: This is a great time to put together an employee training program. Put strategies into place as to how you want the practice run and clearly define everyone's roll.  Specifically, concentrate on your Sales Training including, answering the phones correctly, handling web leads, follow up and converting leads into patients.

                    5: Social Media Presence: Check out your Social Media platforms and make sure they are up to date with relevant content and messaging. 

                    6: Evaluate your vendor relationships. Are you happy with your marketing company, suppliers, phone systems, software, etc.

                    7: Email Database: This is a great time to organize your email database or make plans to start an email database. Separate your database into Patients, Past Patients and Prospects. Select a platform to send your emails and come up with a plan as to what messaging you would like to communicate now and what your plan will be going forward.

                    Medical Marketing Solutions is currently offering a Free Consultation for all Private Pay Medical Practices. We will help you with your planning and future strategies and implementation to help stabilize and help re-kick start your business in the very near future.

                    3.  What will happen to practices that do not take a leadership role and aggressive posture during this challenging time.
                    4. Should practices invest money in Paid Ads., technical SEO, etc.
