The start of a new year. A time when people flood the gyms, plan out healthy diets, and vow other acts of self-improvement. Starting January 1, many people are ready to hit the reset button. This is a great time to tap into your patients’ desires for self-improvement and promote your practice through email marketing.
In the spirit of “new beginnings,” you should frame your chiropractic services as a betterment project. Many of us decide to break old, unhealthy habits. Others plan to better their health with weight loss and exercise programs. Chiropractic care fits right in.
Chiropractic Email Marketing to Jumpstart a Healthy Year
New Year’s resolutions present an email marketing opportunity—a time to encourage regular chiropractic appointments and remind your patients of the importance of chiropractic care to their overall health. In doing so, you’ll also show patients that you have their best interests at heart.
For example, if one of your patients has resolved to exercise more in the New Year, they should understand the benefits of having a chiropractic checkup before starting a new workout regimen. Improper spinal alignment can diminish the benefits of a toning and strengthening exercise routine.
To help them achieve their exercise goals, educate patients about the importance of getting their New Year’s resolution off to the best start possible. They may need to prep their bodies – with your services – to maximize the impact of their exercise routines.
Disclaimer: You wouldn’t want to send such an overture to your Medicare patients so as not to provide a “financial incentive” to come in, which is illegal.
