3-month patient growth plan

[Clinic Name] social media and ads plan.

The goal is simple: help more local people know, trust, and book with [Clinic Name]. We will use Meta ads as the growth engine. Optional support content can be added only if the clinic is comfortable with it.

The goal

More quality patient enquiries from people near the clinic.

We are not trying to make the clinic internet famous. We are trying to make the clinic visible, trusted, and easy to book when someone nearby needs dental care.

1

Be seen locally

Show up consistently to people in [suburb] and nearby areas.

2

Build trust first

Use real clinic photos, team content, and simple messages that reduce hesitation.

3

Turn interest into bookings

Run clear ads for check-ups, implants, whitening, cosmetic dentistry, or the clinic's priority services.

The plan

Meta ads are the core plan. Support content is optional.

Paid ads are where we spend money and drive enquiries. Any extra posting is optional and only used if the clinic wants a warmer, more active page alongside the ad campaign.

Growth engine

Paid ads

We run Facebook and Instagram ads to people near the clinic, focused on services that can turn into real bookings.

  • Month 1: local awareness and trust
  • Month 2: service ads and first enquiry campaigns
  • Month 3: strongest services, retargeting, and booking push
Support layerOptional

Optional support content

For clinics willing to participate, we can add lighter support posts so the page feels active when people click through from ads.

  • Fun, relatable clinic moments
  • Meet the team and behind-the-scenes posts
  • Simple reminders and useful dental education
Optional support note This is not the main lead source. If approved, support content gives us extra creative ideas to test and reassures people who click an ad then check the clinic page before booking.

Budget

The ad budget we recommend for this plan.

The ad budget is paid directly to Meta. Our recommended starting setup is a Traffic campaign optimised for landing page views, using Campaign Budget Optimisation (CBO) so Meta can put more spend behind what is working.

MonthRecommended ad budgetWhat it pays forWhy this matters
Month 1$25 AUD/dayTraffic campaign optimised for landing page views, testing audiences and creatives. Budget is managed with CBO, which means Meta automatically shifts more of the daily budget toward the audience or ad that is getting better results.Helps bring more relevant visitors to the website and gives Meta data on which audience responds best.
Month 2Review before scaling$25 AUD/day, or increase if approvedContinued traffic campaign, stronger-performing audiences, and creative variations based on Month 1 results.Allows the campaign to learn from early results and push more budget toward what is working.
Month 3$25 AUD/day, or increase based on results/client approvalOngoing traffic campaign, best-performing creatives, and a possible retargeting or lead campaign recommendation depending on results.Spend can be adjusted based on website visits, landing page views, enquiries, and booking intent.
What CBO means: CBO stands for Campaign Budget Optimisation. Instead of manually splitting the budget equally across every audience or ad, Meta watches performance and automatically sends more budget toward the parts of the campaign getting better landing page views. Our usual starting budget is $25 AUD per day. If the client has approved a higher budget, such as $50 AUD per day, or if performance data shows that scaling is recommended, the budget can be increased after approval. Final campaign setup should still be reviewed before launch.
What we need from you

Five things we need so the plan can actually happen.

The clinic does not need to manage the marketing. But we do need the right access, visuals, and approvals.

1. Photo and video shoot

Half-day shoot of the team, clinic, treatment rooms, reception, and natural behind-the-scenes moments.

2. Access

Facebook page, Instagram account, Meta Business Suite, ad account, website or booking page links.

3. Priority services

Tell us which services matter most commercially: check-ups, implants, whitening, veneers, Invisalign, CDBS, emergency, or other.

4. Approval person

One person who can approve content and ads quickly so the campaign does not stall.

5. Compliance preferences

Any words, claims, visuals, offers, or treatment areas the clinic wants us to avoid.

After that, we handle the rest

Planning, copy, scheduling, ads, reporting, and month-by-month recommendations.

Approval

To move forward, please confirm these decisions.

Once approved, we prepare the shoot brief, finalise Month 1 content, and set up the first campaigns.
