Stop Chasing Low-Hanging Fruit

Welcome to the Podiatry Marketing podcast. In this episode, Jim McDannald, DPM, and Tyson E. Franklin tackle the enticing yet precarious concept of low-hanging fruit in the marketing world. We dissect why the easiest options aren’t always the best and how they might be hindering the growth of your practice.

What You'll Learn:

• The Allure of Low-Hanging Fruit: We begin by defining what low-hanging fruit means in the context of podiatry marketing. From low-paying government patients to unsustainable discount strategies, we cover it all.
• The Pitfalls of Easy Money: Discover why targeting low-effort opportunities can lead to a dead-end, why these strategies are not sustainable, and how a race to the bottom on pricing can be detrimental.
• Professional vs. Amateur Approach: Learn the differences between a professional and an amateur in the podiatry marketing space, focusing on the long-term strategy versus short-lived tactics.
• The Bank Robbery Analogy: A compelling comparison that illustrates the importance of aiming for the ‘vault’—developing a deep-seated marketing strategy—over the ‘cash drawers’ of quick wins.
• Longevity in Marketing: We delve into why investing time in a nurturing program is a strategic move and how understanding a patient's journey can lead to more substantial and enduring success.
