What does healthcare marketing strategy look like when you can't promise a happy ending? Jennifer Knowlton, Director of Digital Marketing at The Care Team and a 20-year healthcare marketing veteran, joins Jakub to pull back the curtain on one of the hardest niches in the industry: post-acute and hospice care marketing.
From navigating HIPAA constraints to building a patient acquisition strategy that actually converts - without the data you're not allowed to use - Jennifer shares a practical, trust-first framework that any medical practice can apply.
We dig into:
๐ค Why practices must earn a patient's trust before ever asking them to book an appointment
๐ฅ The 3-part digital marketing framework every practice needs: educate, humanize, and remove friction
๐ How to market across fragmented healthcare audiences (and why one message won't cut it)
๐ฌ What hospice messaging looks like when a positive outcome isn't guaranteed - and what actually works
๐ Why a healthcare brand is a promise, not a logo - and how to live that internally with your team
๐ The HIPAA marketing problem: why the data you want to use is usually the data you can't - and how to grow anyway
๐ Content marketing for healthcare: why blog posts, caregiver burnout guides, and "what to expect" content outperform promotional posts
