Benefits of Mental Health Content Marketing

Lead to Recovery focuses on filling your census while helping you save time and money. We’ll help you develop a comprehensive mental health content marketing strategy that attracts potential clients to your website and persuades them to contact you for more information about your services.

As a result, you’ll have an easier time filling your census.

In-Depth Knowledge of Your Competitors

Lead to Recovery has worked with behavioral health centers all over the United States, so we know what strategies your competitors are using to promote their services. We’ll use that knowledge to develop a content marketing strategy that helps you stand out from the crowd. Our content makes it easier to connect with potential clients and show them how your services can improve their lives.

Alignment With Overall Marketing Objectives

Content marketing is just one piece of a comprehensive marketing strategy. When you work with Lead to Recovery, you gain access to a team of experts in web design, search engine optimization, pay-per-click advertising and marketing.

Our Process

wheel

Our content marketing process begins with a complimentary Discovery Call to learn more about your overall marketing strategy, find out how your existing content is performing and discuss your updated content marketing objectives.

Based on this discussion, we’ll help you create a content marketing plan, establish a budget and develop a schedule for creating, publishing and optimizing content. Next, we assess your published content and check to see how each page is ranking, giving us insight into how your site is performing.

Once we understand your current marketing strategy, we begin developing a comprehensive content marketing plan. Our focus is on creating content that resonates with readers and shows them you have the expertise needed to help them improve their mental health and overall well-being. We also include clear calls to action on every page.

Our work doesn’t end when your new content goes live. Instead, we spend time testing headlines, calls to action and other page elements to determine which versions are the most effective. The end result is a steady stream of leads, ensuring you have plenty of opportunities to fill your census.

Discovery & Onboarding

Although Lead to Recovery specializes in marketing for the behavioral health industry, we recognize that no two treatment centers are the same. That’s why we offer a no-cost Discovery Call to anyone who wants to learn more about our content marketing expertise. During this 30-minute call, we learn more about your marketing goals, brand identity and vision for your behavioral health center.

Discovery Call

Your journey to a full census begins with the Discovery Call, which gives us a chance to learn more about your behavioral health center and determine what changes are likely to help you achieve your marketing objectives much faster. It also gives you the opportunity to ask questions and get comfortable working with the Lead to Recovery team.

Your Budget, Your Goals

We work with behavioral health centers of all sizes, so we know not everyone has the same amount of money to spend on marketing. To help you fill your census without a substantial increase in costs, we tailor our services to your current budget.

Onboarding

During the onboarding process, we make sure you understand your content marketing plan and how it fits into your overall marketing strategy.

Strategize

We take a strategic approach to content marketing. As a result, every piece of content we publish has a clear purpose. Lead to Recovery also tailors its content marketing approach to your existing SEO and digital marketing strategy.

Research

A successful content marketing plan begins with in-depth research. We audit your current content to see if anything is missing or any content could be updated to match the needs of your target audience. Our team also takes the time to research what types of content are most effective for reaching the people who are most in need of your services.

SEO & Keyword Targeting

High-quality content is essential for reaching the top of the search engine rankings for valuable keywords. To improve your rankings, we make sure every piece of content contains keywords that are likely to drive traffic to your website. We also use local SEO techniques, making it easier for potential clients in your service area to find you.

Timeline & Objectives

Our mission is to deliver results in the shortest amount of time possible. That said, it’s important to remember that content marketing is an ongoing process. We spend a significant amount of time developing content, but once that content is live, we need to continue testing it, optimizing it and making changes to make it even more effective.

Implement & Execute

Once we have a strategy in place, we start implementing it. This involves developing content, inserting calls to action, adding backlinks and making updates as needed. When every element is in place, we publish the content to your website.

Content Development

The content development process includes research, writing and editing. If your marketing strategy includes video, then it may also include script writing and video production. No matter what type of content you need, we make sure every page matches your brand identity and displays correctly on desktop and mobile devices.

Content Review

All content goes through several rounds of review to ensure it captures the right tone and meets the needs of potential clients who are in different stages of the buyer’s journey.

Launch

When your new content has been reviewed and refined, we publish it on your website. Once it’s published, we verify that every backlink is valid and that the content fits seamlessly with the rest of your website, ensuring a consistent experience for visitors.

Optimize

Content marketing isn’t a one-time task. It’s an ongoing process that can benefit from regular testing and updating.

Search Rankings

We optimize every piece of content with the keywords that are most likely to drive traffic to your website, generate leads and convert those leads into paying clients.

Reach

We test multiple calls to action to determine which ones are most effective for generating leads. The Lead to Recovery Team also develops new content and tests new elements to help you expand your reach.

Continual Refocusing

Over time, your goals are likely to change. You may decide to focus on a new service area or a different type of patient. That’s why it’s so important for your content to evolve with your business. Long after your content goes live, we continue testing and optimizing it to ensure it aligns with your current goals.

Analyze

Analysis involves tracking and measuring the results of your content marketing strategy. We use a variety of metrics to ensure your content is reaching the right audience and having a measurable impact on your bottom line.

Data Analysis

Lead to Recovery uses Google Analytics and other tools to assess your conversion rate and determine how well your site is performing in the search rankings. We also determine the number of visitors and leads generated from your new content and compare those numbers to the results generated by your previous content marketing strategy.

Performance Analysis

During the performance analysis phase, we determine if your new content is producing results that align with your marketing objectives. This involves analyzing how the content is resonating with users and determining whether it’s improving your search rankings or the quality of your leads. Our mental health page speed optimization services also ensure your content loads as quickly as possible making for the most enjoyable user experience.

Targeting Analysis

Targeting analysis involves tweaking your content to produce even better results. During this phase, we may adjust the keywords on some of your pages, add new videos to your website or update your content to make it a better fit for users’ needs.

Audit & Refine

After we analyze every aspect of your content marketing strategy, we do regular audits and testing to make sure your content is as effective as possible.

Measuring & Reporting

At Lead to Recovery, we value transparency and effective communication. To help you understand what we’re working on at any given time, we provide regular reports to update you on content performance and testing.

Adjusting

As your needs change, we adjust our content marketing strategy accordingly. This makes it easier to grow your business and ensure you consistently have a full census.

Scaling

One of the best things about content marketing is that it’s easily scalable. If you’re starting out with a limited budget, we can address your most critical needs first. As your business grows, we can create new content to help you connect with new market segments.
