I’d like to share a story with you that demonstrates really well the power of some of the amazing things that are possible with digital marketing. In this case THE AMAZING THING is called REMARKETING.
The story is actually told by Joel McDonald, author of Google Adwords for Dummies. Joel is one of our advisors and has worked with me for some years to keep our Google campaigns for our dentists at the cutting edge. He was also kind enough to write this about our digital marketing service for dentists:
“My name is Joel McDonald, and I am an Author and a Google AdWords consultant. I’ve reviewed hundreds of Advertising accounts, and working with Somnowell Marketing has been an absolute pleasure. Their accounts are some of the most organized and well-performing accounts I’ve looked at. If they are managing your Advertising budget for your local Dental practice, you can rest assured that your advertising budget is in extremely capable hands.”

Anyway, onto the story!
Although his website is about as basic as it gets cosmetically – he gets plenty of organic traffic from Google because he has uploaded hundreds of helpful free videos that drive traffic to the site.
We were brainstorming a while back about capitalizing on the traffic to his site and I suggested an AdWords Remarketing campaign. He objected, saying “I don’t want to pay for traffic. I get tons of free traffic already.” I said “Let’s spend $20 a month on remarketing & see what happens.”
The funny thing is – we struggled to even spend $20 a month. Most months only cost him $5 or $10. Nothing really happened for a couple months. No big deal though. He was only out $10 or $20 – tops in the two months we had been trying. By the third or fourth month, something funny happened.
He got a call from a Mom & Dad who were trying to help their high school junior get into an Ivy League school…
Jason’s course is $1500, so it often involves a phone call. On that call, he is used to getting grilled with all sorts of qualifying questions before they decide to buy. You know the types of questions: “What are your qualifications?” “So and so has a cheaper program.” “How are you different from XYZ program?” Etc. In this case, however, he was pleasantly surprised. The conversation went something like this:
Jason: “Hi, this is Jason – How can I help you?”
Parents: “Hi, we’re trying to help our child improve their SAT scores & we were going to go with Sylvan Learning Center, but we came across your videos, and you guys are everywhere! We see that you ship physical DVDs, but we want to get started ASAP. If we gave you a credit card number over the phone, do you have the first DVD online so we could get started before they arrive in the mail?”
Although Jason was used to running through a whole list of questions, he didn’t have to answer any. He just needed to get to his computer so he could run their credit card ASAP.
How did Jason get the business over a multi-million dollar nationwide company? Having hundreds of helpful videos online certainly helped, but if that was the case, these folks would have bought a lot earlier when they visited his site in the first place. What pushed these people over the edge was Jason’s $7 per month remarketing campaigns that continued for weeks after they first found his website. They never opted in for any additional emails. They didn’t call him when they first found his site. They simply found the site, and left.
But… over the next few weeks:
The best part is that Jason didn’t even pay for them to see all of those remarketing ads. He only paid on the rare occasion that they actually clicked on the ads. Even though he only paid for clicks, every time they saw one of his ads, asubconscious seed was planted – telling them “this guy must be legit if he can afford to advertise in all of these places”. By the time they had drawn that conclusion for themselves, the need to ask all sorts of other questions just went away. They were ready to buy.
Pretty cool, eh?
Whether or not you are using paid traffic on Facebook, AdWords, or anywhere else – Remarketing is an extremely powerful tool that will increase your conversion rate – no matter how many visitors you already have coming to your site.
Here’s how you can implement Remarketing for your website:
Of course, there are a lot more sophisticated ways to use remarketing, but this basic use of remarketing is extremely powerful.
END OF STORY
Last year for our sister company, a dental laboratory, we generated over 25,000 new patient enquiries for our dentists, at an average cost of £4.73 each.
We now do the same at Somnowell Marketing for dentists for ALL their treatments. You can see recent cost examples in the end column below. New patient enquiries for braces were £6.92 each, and the new patient enquiries for teeth whitening were £2.67 each, and for implants £10.04 each.
We only work with one dental practice per area, so we can get the best results for one practice and not be running campaigns that are competing against each other.
