Drug Rehab Social Media Marketing Needs to Learn

Drug Rehab Social ‘Media Marketing is for All addiction Treatment Industry Businesses

Drug rehab social media marketing is even more important for industry related sales and service organizations. Social media advertising is not for fun. It’s much different than being on these platforms for fun. There are specific goals and tools needed that companies must learn to be effective and not waste valuable company time.

Outreach and sales are not immobilized while in quarantine. Now, is the time for drug rehab social media marketing. What should these employees be doing if they can’t be on the road? This article will provide some solutions for your sales force during this business shutdown. It will look at;

How to effectively use drug rehab social media marketing now and after the pandemic?
How to use LinkedIn during the Corona virus?
How to maximize Facebook organic for drug rehab social media marketing?
Why is it an excellent time to start SEO?

Using Drug Rehab Social Media Marketing

Everyone thinks drug rehab social media marketing is easy. They do not understand the platform and what maximizes time and gets in front of the target audience. The second problem is they are short-sighted. They are expecting immediate results. However, organic social media marketing pays bigger dividends than pay per click. Consider this, a company puts a social media strategy in place after getting trained on what needs to be done.

They have one individual run this program. If they are paying that individual let’s say $35,000 a year, they would probably need about three admits or clients to break even in a 12 month period. I guarantee that you will get more than three clients in a 12 month period if you effectively use social media.

It’s funny, almost every drug rehab marketing agency says they do drug rehab social media marketing. They will half ass build the LinkedIn and Facebook business profile. They then resort to posting a few post on the business page. Then they run Facebook paid ads off a landing page. They do nothing organically and once you stop paying Facebook your lead generation possibilities are shut off. This falls in line with the expectations of the industry that has traditionally relied on Google Ad Words and PPC.

BHNR Leads by Example with Their Drug rehab Social Media Marketing

Behavioral Health Network Resources spends a ton of time on social media with Facebook and LinkedIn for drug rehab SEO and marketing. Our drug rehab social media marketing has built over 60 groups with over 210,000 members.

While other advertising agencies were using one liners and paid Facebook marketing for their so-called social media marketing, we were doing drug rehab social media marketing.

With the completion of the Google March update it paid off more than we could have imagined. The update gives SEO juice for social media activity.

Understanding the platforms is critical to success. Consider this, Facebook in 2018 did an algorithm change and said they will no longer serve as many of the business posts. However, they will continue to serve the posts from personal pages and groups. So, this means focusing on the business page posts is just spinning your wheels. As a matter of fact, if a person does not manually change their preferences it won’t get served.

How to Use LinkedIn for Drug Rehab Social Media Marketing with Outreach and Sales During the Covid-19?

LinkedIn has always been the most underutilized drug rehab marketing avenue in the addiction treatment industry. This is surprising considering it’s the only place for two key target audiences. For treatment centers it has the private clinicians, EAP providers, hospitals, and many more key resources. For the sales and service organizations it has the CEO’s Executives and key decision makers for all the treatment centers and sober livings.

Behavioral Health Network Resources started in 2014 solely based on LinkedIn. We learned how to use level one connections for drug rehab marketing. We took the time to learn all the secrets, tricks and back-doors to using it. It is not as simple as everyone thinks and it has many unrealized advantages.

Connect with your target audience as a level one connection
Corral target audience in groups
Get your Pulse posts read by the target audience
LinkedIn email has a 90% open rate. However, you cannot spam this.
An endless supply of drug rehab SEO back-links from a highly rated website by Google.

Behavioral Health Network Resources is the leader in our industry on LinkedIn with drug rehab SEO and drug rehab social media marketing. We have a combined total of 35,000 addiction and behavioral health level one connections. We own 12 addiction and behavioral health groups with over 50,000 members. This has been one of the keys to our success because we can drip our message to our target audience. If you remember from above, a sales landing page is ineffective. Successful advertising in 2020 is keeping your content in front of your target audience, addressing their pain point and not directly selling to them.

We have learned many secrets and tricks that no others have found. We have mastered how to get LinkedIn profiles to show up on page one of Google. Try and Google;

What are the key areas to organic marketing on LinkedIn?

There are several key areas that drug rehab marketing, sales, and outreach should be focusing on while the social distancing is going on. Some of those include;

Complete profile to All-Star level
SEO personal profiles on LinkedIn
Input the 3 main SEO url back-link areas
utilize tagline by inputting long-tail keyword
Do Pulse posts with hot linked back-links
Complete and SEO business profile
Add links to business website with pics and descriptions that show up on their LinkedIn profile with pics.
Upload media and back-link urls in job description area
Add projects with key words for SEO and url link to website
Add publications with long-tail keywords for SEO and link url to website

Now is the time to get you employees educated on how to use and maximize LinkedIn. This is one of the best sites for drug rehab social media marketing. Over 99% of the addiction and behavioral health industry are not doing the above. They are just posting, and incorrectly posting I might add, and hove no idea how to maximize this platform. If you would like to have your staff trained on LinkedIn, we have one more consulting and training slot left for an organization. You can contact our CEO, Charles Davis at 561-235-6195.

Common Drug Rehab Marketing Mistakes Being Made on Facebook

Behavioral Health Network Resources controls about 40 Facebook groups on a daily basis. These groups have more than 150,000 members. Some of the posts that are attempted are shocking. Unlike other groups that just let any post through, we must approve every post. If they are poor or of no value to our audience, they never see the light of day.

90% of addiction treatment centers and sales/service organizations need to learn how to use social media.

With that being said, organic marketing on Facebook provides to lowest cost per acquisition than any advertising method. This goes for addiction treatment centers, sober homes, sales organizations, and service companies. That doesn’t mean that Facebook paid marketing doesn’t work. It can work if you have an experienced Facebook PPC specialist. However, once you stop paying Facebook, your marketing valve gets shut off. When doing organic drug rehab social media marketing you are gaining electronic assists that are yours forever.

When we perform our 90-day drug rehab SEO and social media marketing package we grow LinkedIn and Facebook for our clients. They get instantly tapped into our audience of 150,000 on Facebook and 50,000 on LinkedIn.

Sales and Service Organizations Need to Build their Drug Rehab Social Media Marketing

Facebook is undoubtedly the #1 social media website. It is an absolute must for drug rehab marketing. There 2 billion registered user. Next to Google you have to have a prescience here. As a sales and service organization many in our industry solely rely on “boots on the ground”. Besides that they will attend a few select addiction conferences. This is the extent of the advertising. The biggest area they are missing is LinkedIn for sure. This is where they can find their target audience. However, they do not know a lot of the ways above to maximize LinkedIn.

They need to be building level one connections with CEO’s, Executives and Directors. They need to do pulse posts and re-share them 3 times a day. These posts need to be much better than their companies blog posts.

Those posts are all about the company they work for, they are not about attracting and engaging the target audience.

You need content that hits their pain point and provides a solution, all the while not being salesy.

Another thing they need to be doing is posting the attracting and engaging content in related groups. These groups for CEO, Executives, and Directors can reach at least 500,000 in their target audience

Why the Corona Virus Opened the Door to Drug Rehab SEO?

Drug rehab SEO is a big pill for many centers, sales organizations and service companies to swallow. It’s a long-term strategy in an industry that wants short-term solutions. Since the google March update with social media getting SEO juice it’s a great time for search engine optimization.

We all agree that social media is a key advertising component during the social distancing. The outreach and sale staffs are all working from home. The “boots on the ground” strategy is extremely difficult during this time. It’s an optimal time to learn and maximize social media. Done correctly while doing this you will get SEO with it.

Behavioral Health Network Resources is the only marketing company that provides drug rehab social media marketing training with our 90-day drug rehab SEO package. We have been awarded the top influencer marketing agency by Design Rush. That’s because we are the only agency that truly does organic social media marketing. Heck, we started our agency on it, and now dominate LinkedIn and Facebook.

It’s Time to Maximize Drug Rehab Social Media Marketing

Addiction treatment centers are far behind in drug rehab social media marketing and SEO. This has become extremely evident in 2020. The Corona virus has opened a door for social media marketing with many drug rehabs not knowing how to capitalize. We are seeing it every day. There has been a huge surge of virtual meetings like Zoom. We are seeing people trying to post in our 60 groups that have never posted before.

LinkedIn and Facebook profiles are poorly built at best. The posts are of poor content and affect the brand. Let’s face it drug rehab social media marketing for business is not social. It has a specific audience and a specific result that is trying to be achieved. This will not be done with a landing page and paid advertising. Having well thought out blog posts and distributing them through the many different ways on each platform to get read is key. Here are the top 10 actionable things you can do to stop wasting time on LinkedIn and social media.

Individual posts
Pulse posts
Business posts
Groups posts
Posts to friends only or level one connections only
When and why to re-share posts
Complete and SEO business profiles (There are many hidden and secret areas.)
Complete and SEO personal profiles (There are many hidden and secret areas.)
Using LinkedIn email (remember 90% open rate). Never to mass mailings!
Using Facebook Messenger

This is just a short list of some of the important things to do to increase drug rehab social media marketing.

Treatment Center Marketing Strategies LinkedIn Level One’s

Treatment Center Marketing Strategies Use LinkedIn for Drug Rehab Marketing

Treatment center marketing strategies can be extremely valuable. With the Coronavirus shutdown it’s more valuable than ever. However, many don’t know how to maximize it and not waste time. As a CEO, Executive, or Director now is the time to get these valuable tools to your staff.

LinkedIn is the most untapped avenue in the addiction treatment industry. It has over 650 million professionals and many tell me that they don’t know how to use it for any drug rehab marketing strategies. I have studied this social medium in depth because there is a tremendous amount of value for any addiction-related business.

It is paramount to know all the SECRETS, tricks, and back-doors to growing your professional audience and how to maximize LinkedIn for referral, sales, and branding. I have learned LinkedIn so well, that I started my own company in 2014, Behavioral Health Network Resources solely based on my LinkedIn addiction professional audience targeting the addiction industry.

How to Use LinkedIn for Drug Rehab Marketing and SEO Strategies

Drug rehab marketing and SEO strategies must be used on LinkedIn. Not only for traffic on LinkedIn but also on Google. This is more so than ever with the March 2020 Google update. Google is now giving SEO credit for no follow links. LinkedIn has one of the highest authority rantings. The addiction treatment industry can’t afford to ignore LinkedIn anymore. It’s too valuable for potential referrals, potential clients, and search engine optimization.

Imagine having your profile to show up on page one of Google for drug rehabs (followed by your city.) This is the ultimate power of LinkedIn, and we explain more below. We are the only drug rehab marketing agency that has this SEO in our marketing package.

Let’s first look at LinkedIn. LinkedIn has an internal ranking system that I am sure many have seen “You are ranked in the top 1%”. I can make someone that has 100, 300, or 500 level one contacts rank in the one percent. This algorithm takes into account a rush of profile views and is not an indication of your utilization of LinkedIn. CLICK HERE to see your true performance on LinkedIn and compare it to my score of 90. Many addiction treatment center marketing strategies over-look this valuable tool.

LinkedIn Questions to include in Drug Rehab Marketing Strategies

The first thing I ask is “How many level one contacts do you have?” The answer is usually around 500. Then I ask “How many groups do you belong to?” The answer is usually under 10. The last questions I ask is “How many people are following you?” The answer usually is I don’t know. I ask several other questions like; “Are you doing Pulse Posts?,” Are you sending them to your organization’s website?” and many more.

The most important thing I’ve learned as an Advertising Executive for the two largest papers in South Florida was that I wasn’t selling ads, editorials, web ads, inserts, and flyers. I was selling a large audience. I tell them for LinkedIn to be effective you need to have a big audience. You need to reach mass numbers of professionals that can assist in growing your business.

Addiction Treatment Marketing and SEO Be More Efficient

Addiction treatment marketing does not respect LinkedIn. However, this is the #1 professional networking website in the world. You cannot go anywhere else and reach a higher number of potential professional referral sources. LinkedIn is the world’s largest professional meeting place and the most underutilized medium with addiction treatment marketing strategies. If you’re not putting in the time to utilize it you’re missing out. There are many tricks and shortcuts to utilizing LinkedIn which I will feature in future posts.

Ask yourself “How much is my time worth?… $100/hr, $200/hr, $500/hr. If your spending 5 hours a week on LinkedIn, that’s 20 hours a month, …240 hours a year! If you do not understand how to maximize your time, and get a return, your just wasting time and money. If you’re interested in learning all the secrets, tricks, and back doors of LinkedIn, or want to inquire about our 90-day social media marketing package feel free to contact me at 561-235-6195, or info@behavioralhealthnetworkresources.com.

LinkedIn’s Power for Treatment Center Marketing

Sure, you can post on the main board, but are you reaching your contacts and the most connected in your field? For LinkedIn to be effective on a mass scale you need at least 5,000 targeted level one connections. You must consider this in your addiction treatment marketing strategies. LinkedIn offers many marketing resources for all industries.

If you have 500 level one LinkedIn addiction professional contacts, you can send a message directly to their board. Posting an article doesn’t mean they saw it. Everyone’s main board is always moving. Every time a connection posts something it gets added to the top of their level one connections board. Hint, re-share your article 3 times a day (morning, afternoon, and night). Don’t have 5,000 level one connections? You better be utilizing LinkedIn groups.

Addiction Outreach Needs to Join and Use Groups

You are getting the idea now that you need to reach a large number of targeted connections to get any exposure. If you have 5,000 addiction professional level one contacts (there are tricks in growing your level one contacts-more on that in future posts) the chances are much better than only having 500. Get the picture.

If you belong to 10 groups (LinkedIn allows you to belong to 100’s) and post in all 10 groups, you could reach 10,000+ depending on the number of members the groups contain. Now, if you belong to 50 groups you get five times more exposure. There are ways of posting in all 25 groups or more at the same time which takes less than 30 seconds. I will let you in on that secret next time.

Now, look at the followers you have. This can be found at the top your profile page, in the box underneath the top box that has your name on it. You can’t control or solicit for followers. People will follow you if they are interested in what you are doing on LinkedIn. I have over 24.000 addiction professional and behavioral health followers. These followers see my activity.

Social Media Marketing Audience

Social media drug rehab marketing marketing must be included in every treatment centers marketing mix. However, as a CEO you must realize that this takes time. You can’t gain access to this powerful tool overnight. It takes proper SEO on their blog posts and a distribution channel that they own. There are only a few options to tap into an existing large audience, and grow an audience of their own.

I switched fields in 2014 and have since grown my LinkedIn network to the following;

20,000 Addiction Professional Level One Connections on LinkedIn
24,000 Addiction and Behavioral Health Followers
Own 14 LinkedIn Addiction and Behavioral Health Professional Groups with over 50,000 members (Addiction Professional Referral Group has over 14,000 members)
Have 12,000 Facebook Addiction-Related Friends
Own 40 Facebook Addiction and Behavioral Health Groups with over 150,000 members
Active Addiction Professional Email List of 25,000
Have 2,300 Addiction related to Twitter Followers

Addiction Treatment Marketing Strategies Require a Large Audience

This is one of the largest professional audiences in the addiction professional field. I started Behavioral Health Network Resources and EMP Series C-suite addiction conferences with LinkedIn being the foundation of my company. Since February 2014, I have branched off into many areas for treatment centers, detox’s, and sales/service organizations. The biggest impact has been with drug rehab SEO services. This is the key for small to medium centers to survive the competition. All of this has only been possible because individuals see by my activity that I am a leader in the treatment center marketing arena for addiction professionals.

The Ultimate Hidden Power of Linked for Drug Rehab Marketing

Many do not understand the ultimate power of a LinkedIn profile. We already know LinkedIn has 550 million professionals on it. Consider this, Google has over 2 billion users every month. Getting a LinkedIn profile on page one of Google for addiction terms is the ultimate in drug rehab SEO. There is no other drug rehab marketing agency that has achieved this. Imagine if you ranked for money key search terms for addiction treatment.;

California drug rehabs (we are on page one)
opiate detox West Palm Beach (we are on page one)
drug rehabs West Palm Beach (we are on page one)
impatient drug rehabs San Diego
opiate detox San Diego
inpatient drug rehabs Escondido

drug rehab marketing agency (3 top 10 listings on page one)

Not only is the traffic astronomically higher on Google, but think about the authority this has. Having your LinkedIn business or personal profile show-up one page one of Google gains instant trust. Combine page one rankings with your treatment centers URL and Maps and you are guaranteed a click through. Our drug rehab SEO has taken clients like SOBA College recovery from 750 keywords ranking on google to a whopping 4,000 in a 5 month period.

Addiction Conferences Series on Social Media Tools for Outreach

All addiction treatment centers, sober livings, and sales and service organizations should have a large drug rehab marketing on social media. Bare in mind that posts should be high quality going to an in-depth blog article that is attracting, engaging, and touches an emotional level. Many outreach professionals do a poor job and distribute poor content. If you take the time to build a large targeted audience, make sure the content is worth reading to your target audience.

The problem is it takes time to build a targeted audience. Many organizations in our industry use short-term solutions to their long-term problem of generating clients. They are resorting to Google Ad Words and boots on the ground. This boots on the ground strategy are only exchanging the same referrals back and forth. They are only so many referrals that any center has at any given time.

The big payoff is having a large targeted audience you own and being able to get your message to them. This should include private clinicians, EAP’s, attorneys, hospitals, etc.. LinkedIn is where they are. Want to learn how to gain access to these untapped referral sources?

How to Use LinkedIn Beyond Addiction Treatment Lead Generation in 2020?

Addiction treatment lead generation can be done on LinkedIn. This is not only true for outreach, but also for SEO in 2020. The search engine optimization component has to be looked at by the Marketing Director and CEO. For outreach there is also a lot of work to be done in the behavioral health field. Consider this, many addiction professional outreach profiles in 2020 are poor at best. This clearly demonstrates they must better understand this valuable business vehicle for networking and addiction treatment marketing. Many need to stop wasting time on LinkedIn and take the time to learn its power. Learning to use this medium and understanding its power is critical when generating drug rehab leads. There are secrets, tricks, and back-doors that need to be completely understood. This platform is becoming paramount in our industry considering the high turnover rate and daily pressures outreach professionals endure.

LinkedIn has over 660 million professionals, it is too big to ignore for addiction treatment lead generation. Many professionals in our industry do not try to use this medium until they are looking for a job. At this point, it is late in the game to get the best value of this professional “networking” site. It takes time to build a targeted audience and become well known in this extremely large community that goes beyond their normal limits within our industry. Addiction professional outreach, in particular, should be using LinkedIn for several key reasons.

Their Next Addiction Treatment Center Employment Search

The average length of employment for addiction professionals in outreach for addiction treatment marketing is 6-12 months. Behavioral Health Network Resources knows this because many contact us in panic mode looking to gain access to our resources to find a new job. This first thing we look at is their employment history.

The blame here is not entirely on the short-term lengths of employment by the individuals, but also on the treatment centers. They do not provide the needed addiction treatment lead generation tools. There is no training for their marketing staff. Wherever the blame is, it doesn’t change the fact that these professionals need to find another position to support themselves and their families.

Becoming a Known Drug Rehab Marketing Professional

LinkedIn is one of the best ways of being known as an ethical drug rehab marketing professional. When you regularly use LinkedIn you also organically build an audience. We teach this addiction treatment lead generation strategies to all of our clients. This should be a strategic plan to connect and get to know different segments of people that may help you in the future. For outreach professionals, these segments include CEO’s, Executive Directors, Marketing Directors, and other outreach professionals. It should also include anyone that fits into their future employment plans. Waiting until you need an addiction professional outreach or drug rehab marketing job is not the time to start doing this. You need to already have the decision makers as level one connections. This is critical because if they are connected to you they don’t know you exist. You have utilized LinkedIn with pulse posts, groups, remarks, and likes thus they should already know about you. This provides you with a warm lead source when job hunting.

LinkedIn should be a part of every treatment centers addiction treatment lead generation marketing plan, not just addiction professional outreach. It is an excellent place to brand your organization. All but a few organizations understand the value and power of LinkedIn for branding and building new referral sources. Many treatment centers, detox’s, sober living facilities and sales/service organizations do not have this in their marketing strategy. LinkedIn can do several things for these organizations if they not only start using it but also get their staff to use it.

LinkedIn can provide massive exposure to the brand, drive visitors to their website and increase organic SEO. A treatment center, detox, sober living, or sales/service organization with savvy marketing will be able to track visitors from LinkedIn through their Google Analytics and Call Tracking Metrics. If your organization does not have these two vital components they do not understand marketing very well,

Addiction Treatment Lead Generation Must Be Careful

Rehab centers must be careful with their addiction treatment lead generation strategy. Everything that is posted about the rehabilitation center is a reflection of the overall brand. if you are branding your organization, you are also branding yourself. It’s in your best interest to utilize the content your organization has and push it out strategically on LinkedIn. It should also be noted that you must be careful about what you are posting.

This is a reflection of the organization, you must consider the content of the posts. Posts that have no value to the reader, do not attract and engage your targeted audience are a direct reflection of you. On LinkedIn, you want to keep it extremely professional. On Facebook you can be a little more relaxed, however, you still must attract, engage and bring value to the reader.

With the new patient brokering laws spreading across the nation many are concerned with patient brokering. Dealing with addiction treatment patient brokers can result in legal issues, jail time and fines. Many centers need to establish new and ethical relationships. LinkedIn is one of the best resources for addiction professionals.

Understanding LinkedIn for Marketing, Branding, SEO, and Networking

Learn and understand the powerful addiction treatment lead generation attributes that produce specific results in order to stop wasting time on LinkedIn. LinkedIn is like going to addiction and behavioral health conference and there are 20 million addiction and behavioral health professionals there to meet. Being there is not enough, you need to attract them, make them go to your website and engage with them to get results in your addiction professional outreach efforts. You also want your organization to provide links on their blog to your profile. This benefits them by obtaining a good back-link and benefits you by getting new page views and possible connections. Your organization’s blog should be posting new content and engaging visitors.

30,000 LinkedIn addiction and behavioral health level one connections,
35,000 addiction and behavioral health followers
own 12 addiction and behavioral health groups with over 50,000 members.
40 groups on Facebook with 150,000 members

Addiction Professional Referral Group (15,000 members) being our most active group. We have built these resources to benefit addiction and behavioral health professionals in their difficult job and in an effort to gain the support of our conferences educating on ethical business and marketing practices.

LinkedIn Stop Wasting Time – You Need an Addiction Treatment Lead Generation Strategy

Putting an addiction treatment lead generation strategy for LinkedIn in place takes a little time. However, you can save 1000’s of hours and increase productivity 1000%. Behavioral Health Network Resources has a total social media footprint in the millions. We are on LinkedIn 2-3 hrs/day (unless we are putting on our addiction conferences) Facebook 4-6 Hrs/day, and Twitter (15 min/day.)

The reason we have dedicated our time to these social media’s is due to the lack of in-depth participation from addiction treatment centers and detox facilities. The rules on getting the distribution of posts on social media are changing. Facebook is limiting posts from business pages. One of the best ways to get your posts viewed is through groups and personal profiles. Every post is either placed on a group members personal page, or placed in their notifications. If organizations in the addiction treatment industry do not start building a targeted audience through groups, they will continuously have to pay to play. As an outreach professional for an organization in our industry, if you build a targeted group, you provide a valuable asset not only to yourself but also the treatment center you are working for currently.

Many addiction professionals on LinkedIn are wasting their time by not knowing how to get more reach. This is combined with incorrect postings, poor branding, lack of understanding that marketing has several distinct purposes and no activity at all. Millennial’s have changed drug and alcohol addiction treatment center marketing. You now need content and a social media footprint. A post can potentially reach 100,000’s targeted individuals.

LinkedIn for Addiction Treatment Lead Generation Ideas

The most underutilized addiction treatment lead generation strategy is LinkedIn. As of March 2020 LinkedIn gives SEO ranking juice. Google’s update states that no follow links are now figured in for search engine optimization juice. The means LinkedIn can be used for SEO, referrals and to get high end potential clients. While this medium seems simple on the face, it’s quite complex. When using LinkedIn you specifically need to demonstrate value to your target audience. It’s not about you, it’s about helping them. Of course you need to educate on the products or services without being cold or hard-edged. This is all part of drug rehab lead generation on social media. They need to brand themselves as a leader. By correctly using LinkedIn they will also produce traffic to addiction treatment centers website. You see, using this medium also increases organic SEO. In return, ranking on page one will get potential clients to call. Simply by trying to establish new relationships on LinkedIn, you also do more for the big picture. This all will bear fruit and most importantly attract and engage their target audience.

Outreach professionals for centers or sales/service organizations can use this extremely valuable medium in connecting with referral sources, networking, branding, generating traffic and used in conjunction with other pieces of their marketing mix.

Last week, I noticed one respected addiction executive professional wasting his time trying to market his center on LinkedIn. This was an excellent opportunity to pitch our ‘Get Linked for Addiction Professionals” training. So, I personally called him. I said, “I noticed you’re a little active on LinkedIn. How is that working for you?.”

He said, “Wow, you’re a real person, I thought your profile was a machine. To be honest, I have received very little results. I’m trying to bring awareness to potential referral sources on our new medication-assisted therapy service. Can you tell me how I can do this better on LinkedIn.”

I asked him, “How much time do you spend on LinkedIn?”. He said about “30 minutes a day.” I then asked him, “What results have you gotten from it?” He said, “nothing.”

I told him that I already figured that out by looking at your profile and poor activity. I had him pull up his summary of Pulse posts (one of the best indicators on post views inside LinkedIn,) and showed him he was only getting between 10 and 50 views per post. Many are not even doing pulse posts. To put that into perspective our Pulse posts get 300-10,000 views.

I said, “That is the reason for my call. I have been noticing your activity, what and how you are doing it, and couldn’t stand to watch you waste so much time.” I then asked him, “How much is your time worth?” He said, “About $300/hr-$500/hr.”

Addiction Professional Outreach Learn How to Use LinkedIn

I told him, “What if I could save you 1000’s of hours a year on your marketing efforts on LinkedIn, drastically extend the reach of your posts, by giving you two hours of training showing you many of the secrets, tricks and back doors of LinkedIn, how to utilize your LinkedIn contacts inside and outside of LinkedIn and get you 1,000 new targeted level one connections?” He said, “Oh, here’s the pitch that’s going to cost me $1,000’s of dollars.”

I told him, there are so many wasted marketing dollars in addiction treatment marketing including time wasted on LinkedIn. This program offers a “lifetime value” as these new connections are yours for life. You will get many lifetime views of your articles and continue to save hours and hours of wasted time for the rest of your life. Our “Get Linked for Addiction Professionals” program is much less than you think. In less than one week your LinkedIn will blow up with new targeted contacts, and two weeks after the training you will be able to see the views on your posts drastically increase.

Finding Your Drug Rehab Marketing Mix

LinkedIn is only one strategy for addiction professional outreach. It’s only a small portion of the marketing mix that treatment centers, detox’s, sales/service organizations and behavioral health organizations need. Finding their marketing mix is confusing and overwhelming. However, LinkedIn is used within and outside of LinkedIn. It should be in the marketing mix for everyone in our industry. Consider this, our CEO’s LinkedIn profile appears on the first page of Google for several key terms. If you Google “drug rehab marketing“,”drug rehab SEO”, and drug rehab marketing agency”, he is one page one. In fact we have 3-5 page one organic listings for those keywords. These are Major long-tail keywords for marketing in our industry. We also rank for key terms on services we don’t provide. This does not happen by chance. We clearly understand drug rehab SEO and social media. Here are some others that we rank for;

drug rehabs in Florida (searched 10,000 pr month)
California drug rehabs
drug rehabs West Palm Beach
opiate detox West Palm Beach
sober homes West Palm Beach

We provide social media training (LinkedIn and Facebook) for outreach professionals at every one of our Ethical Marketing Practices conferences. Check it out and consider attending one of addiction conferences in 2020.

For all this to work many pieces need to be put in place;

Proper drug rehab website development
optimized blog articles with a drug rehab SEO strategy
Google Analytics
call tracking metrics
and more

The addiction industry is experiencing major business and marketing changes and those that do not use social media to get their message in front of their target audience will not survive in web marketing.

Addiction Treatment Lead Generation for Outreach and SEO

Addiction treatment lead generation is a critical component for drug and alcohol rehab centers. However, there is too much focus on getting referrals from other treatment centers. Sure, there are drug rehabs addiction professionals should visit. However, there is much more to be done than getting one on one referrals. CEO and Marketing Directors need to be providing tools to assist these individuals. They should have many lead generation techniques going on at the same time.

We have several social media marketing programs (90-day Social Media Marketing Program) tapping you into our targeted audience and growing your own targeted audience. This new audience you receive consists of;

1,000 new targeted LinkedIn level one connections
1,500 targeted Facebook friends

The top 3 drug rehab marketing missing links in 2022 are critical in addiction treatment center marketing plans. A buy rehab leads strategy and drug rehab call centers are no longer sustainable. Drug rehab marketing is complicated, competitive; it must be respected and understood to achieve results. Addiction treatment center marketing is a red ocean with many competing to have a page one ranking in organic searches. It takes specialized and experienced professionals in many different areas; web development, content SEO writers, Google analytics, call tracking professionals, and many more to produce treatment calls. Hopefully, you are including the top 3 drug rehab marketing missing links.

What Are the Top 3 Drug Rehab Marketing Missing Links?

The top 3 drug rehab marketing mistakes are extremely common. This article assumes that you properly invested in your website, and it’s not included in the top 3 drug rehab marketing missing links. In addition, be aware of the new Google speed algorithm update. You need to be sure your pages lightning fast when loading on mobile. If not, you will lose web traffic from organic searches because you will not be ranking high on organic listings. In addition, to have the top 3 drug rehab marketing missing links, you need social signals from many sources to get Google juice from the Google spiders to gain organic rankings on Google (2.3 million searches per second).

If you are a savvy drug and alcohol addiction treatment center owner you should know about the drug rehab marketing agency cookie cutter option that does not produce phone calls. You must have industry experienced professional drug rehab marketing agency building, and strategically constructing your timepiece. In addition, you should use a drug rehab marketing consultant that can save you $100,000’s on your marketing and avoid costly mistakes. One of the biggest mistakes is in web development of your timepiece. I say timepiece because a website is like a watch with many intricate moving parts underneath that must work in perfect harmony to satisfy the Google Gods.

Drug Rehab SEO Marketing and Training

Drug rehab SEO starts with a structurally correct website. There are many nuances that are unique to drug and alcohol addiction treatment industry and having a family member or a friend build your website will cost you wasted dollars in the end. This thing is, you will not know they are wasted. One of the main reasons addiction treatment centers fall into this is because they have a buy rehab leads mentality.

Many are taking a short-term solution to their long-term problem with their census. If your website is not set-up correctly, Google will not rank your website. After your website is structurally correct, you need to have all the pages SEO’d. This is where many fail. Behavioral Health Network Resources not only provides SEO service that gets you ranked, but we also sit down with you and teach you the many things you can do on your own. Our 90-day drug rehab SEO marketing program gives you the tools and shows you how to achieve many aspects of SEO on your own.

#1 of the Top Drug Rehab Marketing Missing Links – Google Analytics

The first of the top 3 drug rehab marketing missing links is Google analytics. Many say they have it, but few understand this extremely valuable tool. This must be used to understand what is working, and what is not working in your marketing mix. Even if you are using a buy drug rehab leads strategy, you must know if the leads you are buying are generating traffic. It’s in our top 3 drug rehab missing links because this travel guide is telling you exactly what to do for your addiction treatment marketing to produce results.

This rehab marketing tool should be used daily.

Google analytics can tell you about geographical locations, traffic sources, content visited real-time metrics, or over any period. It can also tell you the number of visitors to your site for any period, your visitor’s interests, engagement, what pages your potential clients are visiting once they are on your site, and how long they were there.

#2 of the Top 3 Drug Rehab Marketing Missing Links – Call Tracking

The second of the top 3 drug rehab marketing missing links is call tracking. This is an absolute must, and an inexpensive tool providing vital data for your addiction treatment center marketing. Again, you must have this tool to understand if the calls being generated are from your buy drug rehab leads funnel. If you don’t have it you should implement it.

This tells you exactly what parts of your addiction treatment marketing mix are generating calls.

Call tracking is a slick tool that tells you the path they took on your website, name of the caller, location, date, time and length of the call. Even more powerful for your drug rehab marketing is you can assign a unique phone number for every aspect of your marketing. You can assign a single number for all your Facebook marketing. A single number for each of your splash pages. A single number for the call center you are using, and many more.

#3 of the Top 3 Drug rehab Marking Missing Links – Social Media Educates Against a Buy Rehab Leads Strategy

The last of the top 3 drug rehab marketing missing links is social media marketing. This was an unexpected lesson I learned when I started my drug rehab marketing agency. I kind of understood social media by intimately knowing LinkedIn. However, I did not realize how much powerful Facebook was in growing targeted groups and driving much more targeted traffic to a website (500-1000 views per article in a 5-7-day period.)

I also learned that the power of Facebook is in the personal profiles and owning groups. We ran tests over a year on our Facebook drug rehab marketing page which was robust and compared that to our personal profiles, and 14 addiction and behavioral health groups. The results were astounding clear that the power of Facebook lies in the personal profiles and groups we owned. The activity and engagement were 100 times greater! It made me realize the drug rehab marketing mistakes that many treatment centers make in their drug rehab marketing plan.

Social media allows you to reach the largest audience over any other medium. Used correctly, you can reach potential addiction treatment clients in large numbers. Here are the must use social media for treatment center marketing; Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitter, and G+.

Many centers do not understand the different social mediums, and how to unleash the power they possess. Each medium has its own secrets, tricks, and back-doors that treatment centers executives and marketing professionals must understand. Many addiction treatment marketing professionals are wasting tremendous amounts of time when using social media. Social media, if used correctly can generate targeted and measurable visitors to your website and direct phone calls. This is an excellent way to get out of the short-term solution of a buy rehab leads strategy.

Drug Rehab Marketing is Not Just Social, You Can’t Rely on Drug Rehab Call Centers

First, let’s understand business marketing has specific goals and steps to achieve those goals. The goals of business marketing are to attract, engage, capture and convert. You are not going to attract addiction treatment clients with; “Were Sunshine Addiction, JACHO Accredited, and Have Empty Beds”, or “Check Out Our New Website.”

The two ways to attract your target audience are with the picture, title of the post and a few lines of copy. Remember, you are competing against massive amounts of traffic on Facebook (billions of interactions every day.) All three of these components must attract and engage on an emotional level. Many recovery centers do not understand this strategy due to their buy rehab leads mentality demanding instant results.

Addiction treatment center marketing must have engaging content with blog posts (proper search engine optimization, housed on the website with a good call to action) that are relevant. The goal is to touch and engage on an emotional level those that may need help.

Interesting Drug Rehab Marketing Facts on Facebook

Here are some interesting facts about users (2 billion) of Facebook. Remember what you are competing against to get potential addiction treatment clients to click through to your website;

90% of web users ages 18-29 are using Facebook
80% of the US web users ages 30-49 are on Facebook
70% of web users that are college educated and earn more than $75,000 per year are on Facebook

Facebook is the #1 used social media site in the world, that is why we included it in our top 3 drug rehab marketing missing links. Facebook paid marketing works, however, you must completely understand how to use it. Either way, paying someone that doesn’t understand it, or doing it in-house could be costing you marketing dollars. It is paramount that you correctly install and format the Facebook pixel on your website and correctly format it within Facebook.

This is critical for Facebook to capture anyone that was interested in your campaigns. Done correctly, Facebook will be able to re-target them on future campaigns. This way you are maximizing your marketing dollars because you have corralled them for the future. Facebook marketing must be in your Addiction treatment center marketing mix organically, and, or with paid advertising.

Social media marketing is earned over time, so it makes sense to build a target audience (capture) that you own along the way. Many addiction treatment centers severely lack an audience that is their intellectual property. You need large numbers, tens of thousands to produce results. You can check out our 90-day drug rehab SEO and marketing package that instantly taps you into our already built large targeted audience.

Organically growing friends (Facebook), level one connections (LinkedIn), followers (Twitter), growing targeted groups and email marketing are a must for your addiction treatment center marketing.
