They yearn\u00a0to make a big impact and help their communities become healthier. Unfortunately, many of these DC&#8217;s don&#8217;t know how to get attention and stand out above the noise. They produce great content but it either gets buried or very few people see it.<\/p>\n<p>If we want to hit the tipping point and become\u00a0integrated mainstream this has to\u00a0change.<\/p>\n<p>There is a predictable science to attracting more eyeballs and boosting\u00a0your engagement on Facebook. Here are ten quick tips to help you do just that.<\/p>\n<p>These things also help you\u00a0gain you more notoriety and grab attention from local residents.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dcincome.com\/go\/cheatsheet\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-7288\" src=\"https:\/\/dcincome.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/10-Ways-Chiros.png\" alt=\"10 Ways Chiros\" width=\"416\" height=\"234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dcincome.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/10-Ways-Chiros.png 1920w, https:\/\/dcincome.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/10-Ways-Chiros-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/dcincome.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/10-Ways-Chiros-1024x576.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 416px) 100vw, 416px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Craft a compelling headline<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most chiropractic content titles\u00a0I see in my news feed are boring. They&#8217;re missed opportunities.\u00a0The headline is one of the most important components to any successful<\/p>\n<p>Facebook post, video, podcast, etc. Some would argue that it&#8217;s THE most critical piece.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because your headline is the initial attention-grabber.<\/p>\n<p>Whether on Google, Facebook or YouTube\u2026 the content title is one of the first things noticed. If your title is strong, you can literally hypnotize people into clicking your link even if you\u2019re not in the best line-of-sight. With this said, you obviously need to know your local market well. What do they want? What solutions are they seeking? What mistakes are they making?<\/p>\n<p>In my best selling book,\u00a0<em>Social Media Made Me Rich,<\/em>\u00a0I share many powerful examples of how to title a post. If you currently don\u2019t have a copy you can grab the first six chapters for free <a href=\"http:\/\/socialmediamademerich.com\/gifts\">right here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visually stimulate<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Depending on the source you reference, statistics show your image accounts for 50-70% of the reason why someone clicks your Facebook post or ad. So, we have to either spark curiosity or stimulate our viewers visually. The image will obviously depend on the type of Facebook post but you should test different types to see which pulls better. Personal pics, close ups, anatomical images, and action shots are just a few types to try.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Deliver value<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now that you have an eye-popping image and compelling title, you&#8217;ve got to\u00a0deliver the goods in the actual content. This goes without saying. It\u2019s best to make your content practical so people can use and easily implement the information the same day.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, I had a client out of Ottawa do a video on how to get up out of bed in the morning without wrecking your spine. In just a short amount of time that video garnered 41,800 views, 542 shares and 267 likes! When you have many more shares than likes you know you&#8217;ve struck a nerve in your market.<\/p>\n<p>If your content is written then bullet the important points to make it easier for readers to\u00a0consume.<\/p>\n<p>To deliver phenomenal value, you must understand the market you\u2019re servicing. Be real, authentic and don\u2019t be afraid to go against the conventional grain if your intentions are to clear-up misconceptions and empower.<\/p>\n<p>Address major concerns your audience is facing and provide facts \/ analysis. Always ask yourself, \u201cDoes this content I\u2019m creating help solve a problem or better my reader\u2019s quality of life?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also, make sure you have clear and specific action steps you\u2019re giving others to fast-track their implementation<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elicit an emotional response<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t shy away from controversy or stay away from the path less traveled. You need to get readers emotionally involved with your video or written Facebook posts. Fuse personal stories into the mix to help people connect with you on even more of an intimate level.<\/p>\n<p>Research, find, and include the pain \/ pleasure points of the audience you\u2019re going after. Get specific into the small details so you can paint a vivid picture for others.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, be direct and give your honest opinion regardless of popularity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Include a call to action<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>From observation, very few chiropractors tell viewers and readers what to do next. If you want an individual to like and share your post, TELL THEM directly. Never assume they\u2019ll automatically share the piece no matter how great it is. Give people a good sincere reason why they should tell their fiends, too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Go LIVE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Facebook live streaming is very powerful at grabbing attention. In fact, the social network is favoring content that comes from live videos right now.\u00a0If done right, you can get exponentially more organic (free) news feed visibility. Aside from producing\u00a0helpful value driven videos make sure you ask a question to create\u00a0engagement.\u00a0More comments equates to more\u00a0exposure on your posts. Use Facebook live several times per week or daily if possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Email general subscriber and patient lists<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your email list is your #1 biggest asset online. It\u2019s part of the life-blood of your practice. When you post new content on Facebook, email your subscribers and patients that are in your inner circle. They\u2019ll be more likely to share your stuff because you have a long relationship with them. They know, like and trust you.<\/p>\n<p>In your emails, evoke curiosity and let people know the \u201csecrets\u201d they\u2019ll discover by reading the content. Or, let them know what mistakes they\u2019ll avoid. List 3-4 bullet points in the email stressing what\u2019s in it for them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use sponsored boosts to amplify your best content<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This falls under the Facebook advertising umbrella which has\u00a0been my secret weapon since 2008. There&#8217;s no getting around it. If you want to maximize your post distribution and reach as many people in the community as possible, you&#8217;ll start paying to boost posts immediately.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing has gotten my companies and I more exposure, traffic, new clients and sales than Facebook advertising. We\u2019ve spent over $1,200,000 with the social network for good reason and managed over a million dollars for clients.<\/p>\n<p>If done right, you&#8217;ll be able to get your cost per website click under .40 cents, cost per video view under .01 cent, click through rate over 3.0%, and your cost per lead under a few dollars. We have clients that are spending $15 &#8211; $35 per new patient they acquire! Others spend more but one thing&#8217;s for sure.<\/p>\n<p>The return on investment (ROI) trumps any other advertising platform!<\/p>\n<p>If you compare it to conventional media like radio, TV, newspaper, and billboards&#8230; there is no comparison. A 5:1 ROI on those mediums is good. With Facebook, if you&#8217;re not getting at least a 20:1 ROI something&#8217;s wrong. We&#8217;ve had clients surpass 165:1 ROI before. Think about that. For every dollar invested 165 came back in return!<\/p>\n<p>You can\u2019t afford not to run ads with numbers like that. Even if you&#8217;re terrible at direct response marketing you get seriously inexpensive branding. It&#8217;s only a matter of time before you hit critical mass locally and start getting recognized wherever you go.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Facebook advertising (used the right way) is the FASTEST way to get noticed and hit the tipping point\u00a0in any local market. It\u2019s impossible to compete with the sheer volume of targeted traffic Facebook sends.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If you\u2019re not using Facebook ads consistently and your competitor is, you\u2019re getting crushed and don\u2019t even know it. Facebook is an untapped goldmine of exposure if you create, optimize, and run ads like I share in my flagship training\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dcincome.com\/go\"><em>Social Media Elite<\/em><\/a>\u00a0and high level\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dcincome.com\/blog\/coaching\">consulting program<\/a>s.<\/p>\n<p>Success, new patients and sales are predictable when certain things are done in a certain way.<\/p>\n<p>Are you a low tech doctor that doesn&#8217;t have the time to learn how to run profitable ad campaigns? Have my team do Facebook advertising for you at <a href=\"http:\/\/Profit365.org\">Profit365.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The process I\u2019ve described\u00a0here\u00a0is what allowed me to get over\u00a0the top engagements to many Facebook posts and has been responsible for countless <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MatthewJLoop\/videos\/10154335249459846\/\">others going viral<\/a>. This is reliable and works like crazy when you dial it in. Don&#8217;t haphazardly create a Facebook post then hope\u00a0it goes viral. Hope is not an effective\u00a0strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Be proactive and commit to being unstoppable! The formula above is guaranteed to get you noticed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Be consistent<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Consistency moves mountains. \u00a0From my observation, chiropractors\u00a0don&#8217;t post nearly enough on the social network. I recommend upping your game and posting at least four times each day. Make sure your updates are high quality, too. The more you post the more chances your audience has to see your content.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vary the type of content<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The truth is you have different personalities that follow your Facebook fan page. It&#8217;s important to vary the type of content along with how it&#8217;s delivered. Even though you&#8217;re a chiropractor not everyone has the same passion for chiropractic that you do. Spice it up!<\/p>\n<p>Have your posts\u00a0include health tips, open ended questions, photos, quote graphics, stories, new research, helpful videos and some personal things.<\/p>\n<p>*** BONUS TIP ***<\/p>\n<p><strong>Post at optimal\u00a0times<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your Facebook fan page has an &#8220;Insights&#8221; tab which should be reviewed often. We can tell which status updates are getting increased visibility by the type of content. Furthermore, we can track which times of day we&#8217;re getting the most engagement. This is a big deal because what we can measure we can improve.<\/p>\n<p>Try to notice a pattern. Maybe you&#8217;re getting more engagement at 8am in the morning. If we spot a pattern we can queue posts up each day to go out at those specific times. We&#8217;ll still have to pay to boost periodically but at least we can maximize our organic reach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s never been a better opportunity to get noticed and become the celebrity doctor in your town. Be strategic when you create and distribute content on the social network so you can maximize your community outreach. Implement what was shared in this blog and you&#8217;ll 10-20x your Facebook engagement almost overnight!<\/p>\n<p>The power at our fingertips is just staggering.
