CREATING YOUR OWNG.I.S.T. USING HANDOUT

person• Involve entire team• Examples of

Recurring Tasks / Weekly Goals

Internal Social Media Organic (+Boost)

• hashtags a competing practice

• No boost, tags or exposure

• No consistency

• Generic / Boring

• Does not point back to website ever

Organic Social Media Fails


• People love games

• Daily Accountability

• Put one person in charge of making sure it happens

• Post with most engagement gets a prize at end of month

Marketing Dice


• Avoid it - doesn’t have to be perfect to start

• Talk like you’re rehearsed or reading a script

• Be in frame with patient or have your voice heard if recording a patient testimonial (crop it out)

• Have the patient in the dental chair

Creating Video ContentDO NOT:


• Talk for 20 minutes

• Look too serious or forget to smile (unless talking on a very serious topic)

• Ramble on about multiple topics (I’m guilty of this.)

Creating Video ContentDO NOT:


• Create habits - weekly testimonial shoot in same location

• Link to your blog once per week to generate retargeting

Creating Video ContentDO:


• Editorial Content• Be Efficient• Invest in the Right

Camera• Don’t overthink It

Video Marketing Tips

patient• Team engagement
