(Partial list of duties for advertising director)

• Develop a practice brochure. Make sure the brochure addresses the benefits of our practice, not just the features. Distribute the brochure as often as possible.

• Send a welcome letter to all new residents moving into our community, which informs them of our practice and its services.
• Provide current reading material in our reception room. Use reading material to portray our image and our patients' interests. (e.g. if you focus on cosmetic dentistry, use books with before and after pictures).
• Develop a patient newsletter. This does not have to be flashy. Update patients on new procedures, any courses you have taken, healthy recipes, humorous anecdotes, etc. Just make sure it’s not all dentistry. Do something to catch our patients' interest.
• Have a sticker made that says "Compliments of DentalPride" Put it on a toothbrush or toothpaste or any appropriate give-away item. The message will emphasize the caring attitude we want to project. The words "Compliments of .." help the patient feel a special bond with the giver.
• Provide personalized toothbrushes to our patients. At every recall appointment give patients a new toothbrush with our name and telephone number printed on it.
• Develop a practice logo that projects our image and makes you easy to identify and remember. Use our logo consistently on all practice stationery, office signs, brochures, business cards, etc.
• Conduct follow-up phone calls to patients after treatment. This one item alone is probably the single biggest practice builder of all time!
• Develop "New Patient Kits" to distribute to patients. The kit can include such items as a welcome letter, informational pamphlets, patient newsletter, practice brochure, general health information, personalized toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, etc.
• Print patient education information, such as instructions for handling a dental emergency, on the back of our business cards. You may feel more comfortable about handing out our business cards and patients tend to keep them.
• Provide a smile book in our reception room so patients can see what is available and helps them assess their own smile. Patients may be more likely to discuss cosmetic procedures.
• Use statement stuffers to communicate with our patients. This is great for educating them on new procedures or cosmetic procedures such as bleaching.
• Place a biography of each staff member on a bulletin board in our reception room. It allows patients to "meet" the staff before the actual visit. It also can portray the dentist and staff as up-to-date and competent.

Excellent patient relationships help ensure that our patients talk about our practice and us positively, leading to increased patient referrals and recommendations. The best way to build relationships is by providing both expert dental work and friendly personalized service. Listed below are some ideas to help build patient relationships:

• Keep health related cookbooks in our reception room and have blank recipe cards printed with our name on them which patients can use to copy new recipes. We can also have a monthly drawing of the cookbook.
• Be on time. If you are running late, telephone our patients to let them know so they can make changes in their own plans to reschedule, if necessary. You may also want to develop and on time guarantee. Print the guarantee in our newsletter, practice brochure and in our reception room.
• Take clinical photographs of the patient’s teeth and let them see for themselves what their dental needs are. Intraoral cameras are great for this purpose. You can also take after pictures, place stickers with our practice name on the photos and give them to the patient to take home.
• Provide a "toy box" for adults, as well as children. Make sure our gifts fit our practice and convey a message to our audience.
• Send a follow-up letter after a new patient has been in to see you, expressing hope that the patient’s initial visit was positive.
• Send a personalized thank you note to every patient who refers a new patient to you. Send a gift to patients who send a significant number of new patients.
• Send patients cards or notes acknowledging special dates such as birthdays, weddings, graduations, etc.
• Maintain a bulletin board with news about our patients and acknowledge accomplishments with a personal note.
• Sponsor a local sports team, providing uniforms with our name and practice logo.
• Offer to make a photocopy of a magazine article a patient is reading and give the article to the patient to finish reading later. If the article is in and older issue, give them the magazine.
• Conduct a patient satisfaction survey to obtain input from patients on our practice.
• Offer to clean teeth of engaged couples prior to their wedding day. It is good for business and the future spouse may become a new patient. Publicize the service in our newsletter.
• Follow-up with all our referral sources after a patient visit. One of the most important aspects in a referring relationship is a quick report back to the referring professional.
• Track our referral sources. Tracking referral sources will tell you who has stopped or reduced referrals so you can take immediate action. It also tells you who is sending many patients our way so you will be sure to maintain these relationships.
• Make new patients feel special. When a new patient comes to the office, make sure they are introduced to all the staff and given a tour of our office. After the initial visit, call the new patient at home regardless of treatment performed.
• Provide free transportation for those patients without cars either by bus pass, cab fare or have staff pick up and deliver patients. If parking is a problem arrange for discounts in local parking lots.
• Offer coffee, tea or other beverages to patients waiting.
• Hold an open house for patients to show off a new or old office, meet new staff or celebrate our practice anniversary.

Community outreach efforts and participation in community events generate awareness and visibility of our practice in our local service area. The following indicate some activities to assist us in connecting with our community:

• Volunteer to speak before community groups, school groups, neighborhood associations, etc.
• Join civic organizations and become involved.
• Introduce ourselves to local pharmacists, optometrists, pediatricians, physicians and other community healthcare providers and provide them with our business cards and practice brochures.
• Write our home telephone number on the back of our business card for patients who have undergone extensive treatment. It is reassuring to know we are available at all times.
• Send our newsletter to businesses around you.
• Offer to make a noon time or after hours presentation to select companies in our area on dental health.
• Participate in local health fairs. Offer oral exams or other services to participants. Distribute practice brochures, newsletters and business cards.
• Conduct a special event to get to know the businesses in our area. The event may be a special "business week." During the week offer a special service to the area businesses. Develop flyers and have our staff deliver them to are businesses so all employees receive the flyer. Include in the flyer the importance of a good smile to a professional business image.
• Tie-in our practice promotion with a charity. For each new patient who comes in during a particular time, donate our services to the needy. In deciding the charity, we pick the one our market will like in addition to our own personal preferences. Call up the head of the charity to present our idea. See if the charity will promote our effort through their newsletter, and public service announcements on radio, television and the print. Make sure we send press releases to local media. For example, during Senior Smile Week offer dental exams to seniors and then donate the money to a senior center in our neighborhood.
• Send letters and brochures or in person discuss our practice with apartment owners/concierge and Realtors.
• Patronize our patient’s businesses
