DSO & multi-location marketing

DSO Marketing, Local Results at Group Scale

A dental group is a collection of local businesses sharing one brand and one budget. The hard part is not running ads, it is knowing which office each patient came from, which locations need more spend, and how to keep every Google Business Profile accurate as the group grows. We build DSO marketing around location-level performance.

The diagnosis

Four things that make DSO marketing different

01
Attribution

Every lead needs a location

Group-level numbers hide the offices that are struggling and the ones that could grow with more budget. Without location-level tracking, spend drifts toward whichever office shouts loudest.

We report cost per patient and bookings by office, so budget follows performance.

02
Local SEO

Every office is its own local business

Each location needs its own Google Business Profile, reviews, citations and location page. At ten or twenty offices, keeping that accurate becomes an operational job, not a one-off task.

Profile management, review generation and location pages run as a process, not a project.

03
Brand

Consistent brand, local message

A group needs one recognisable brand, but patients choose based on location, hours, insurance and who the dentists are at that office.

Campaigns share a brand framework while each location speaks to its own catchment.

04
Growth

New offices need to launch fast

De novo openings and acquisitions need patients from day one, and rebrands put existing rankings at risk if they are handled badly.

We plan launches and migrations so new offices ramp quickly and acquired ones keep their local visibility.

Who you work with

A Chicago firm that works with one industry

I'm Abdullah Asim. Over ten years building patient pipelines for dental practices, and a firm that takes on a limited number at a time — partly for attention, partly because we will not run ads for two practices competing for the same catchment.

Questions

What dental groups usually ask first

Still have one that isn't here? Ask it on the call — it's thirty minutes and there's no pitch deck.

How many locations do you work with?

We work with groups from two or three offices upward. Our daily DENTAL & bracesbar engagement, for example, covers three locations in Columbus with separate campaign structures.

Do you replace our in-house marketing team?

Not necessarily. Many groups keep brand and creative in-house and bring us in for paid search, local SEO and reporting. We fit around what you already have.

How do you handle conflicts with other clients?

We will not run campaigns for two practices competing in the same catchment. With a group, we check every location against our existing clients before starting.

Can you report by location?

Yes. Location-level reporting is the core of how we work with groups, because group totals hide the offices that need attention.

We also build dental implant marketing, Invisalign marketing, orthodontist marketing, periodontist marketing, and run campaigns in 12 US markets.
