01 / Where you're starting from

Starting fresh
means building
it right the
first time.

01

The previous campaign didn't give you a clean baseline to learn from. That's actually fine - it means we're not inheriting bad structure or dirty data. We start with a clean account, a clear goal, and a strategy built for Dolan Dental specifically. No baggage.

02

People searching for a dentist in Wethersfield, CT are ready to book. Google Search is the right channel here: high intent, local, and measurable. A patient searching "dentist Wethersfield CT" or "family dentist near me" is already in decision mode - you just need to be there, with the right message, at the right cost.

03

The goal is not clicks - it's patients who actually show up. You told us that clearly: the conversion that counts is a patient who books and comes in. We build the tracking, reporting, and optimisation loop around that outcome - not vanity metrics that don't map to chair time.

04

A 40-year practice has a word-of-mouth foundation most clinics would love. Paid ads don't replace that - they extend it to people who haven't been referred yet. We position Dolan Dental to capture the demand that already exists in your area, from families and individuals actively looking for a dental home.

02 / The plan - month by month

How the
first 90 days
look.

Month one is about precision, not scale. We need clean tracking before we spend a dollar - because without it, we're flying blind and optimising toward noise. Week one is strategy and setup. Week two is launch. Then we run structured tests, read the data honestly, and scale what earns it. Starting with $2,000/month in ad budget gives us enough signal to make confident decisions by week 5-6.

Week 1
Research, Strategy & Setup
3-step marketing research: your services and strengths, your local competitors (other Wethersfield and Hartford County dental practices), and your target patient profiles
Keyword strategy: search terms your ideal new patients actually use - from "dentist Wethersfield CT" to specific service searches like implants, cleanings, emergency dental
Conversion tracking setup: calls, form fills, and appointment requests - every touchpoint that leads to a booked visit
Full campaign architecture presented to you for sign-off before anything goes live
All ad copy written: headlines, descriptions, callouts, structured snippets
Week 2 onwards
Launch & Controlled Testing
Campaigns go live: Search campaigns targeting high-intent local queries, structured by service category
Ad copy A/B testing from day one - we test angles like convenience, trust, experience, and specific services to find what converts at your local level
Negative keyword management: aggressive filtering of irrelevant traffic so budget goes only to qualified searches
Weekly reporting: cost per lead, calls generated, form fills, campaign vs target - every week without needing to ask
Weekly alignment with you: are leads converting to appointments? We adjust based on your real-world feedback
Month 2 onwards - Scale
Optimise, Expand, Double Down
Best-performing keywords, ad groups, and copy get the majority of budget - no ego, only data
Display retargeting activated: people who visited dolandental.com but didn't book get brought back with display banners across Google's network
Local Service Ads considered as a complement if performance data supports it - boosts trust with Google's "Verified" badge
CRM integration: we connect Google Ads conversion data to however you currently track patient appointments - so you have a single source of truth on what's working
Scale budget only when CAC per new patient justifies it - never just to spend more
$50–100typical cost per qualified lead for local dental Google Ads
~6 weeksto clear signal on which services and keywords drive the best patients
30+new patients per month is realistic at $2K+ ad budget with clean structure

03 / What we run and why

Google Search is the
core. Here's the
full channel plan.

🔍
Primary channel · Month 1+
Google Search Ads

This is where Dolan Dental wins. People actively searching for a dentist in Wethersfield or Hartford County are in decision mode - not browsing, not discovering. You show up exactly when intent is highest. We structure campaigns around three buckets: branded searches (anyone looking for you by name), general dental searches (dentist near me, family dentist CT), and service-specific searches (teeth cleaning, implants, emergency dentist, etc.).

Highest intent traffic available
"dentist Wethersfield CT" - ready to book, just needs the right practice
"family dentist near me" - household dental home decision
"emergency dentist Hartford County" - urgent, high conversion
"teeth cleaning appointment" - already in the funnel
"implants dentist Connecticut" - high-value service search
"accepting new patients dentist CT" - exact patient you want

Month 2+ · Part of the plan
