Drug rehab social media marketing during the Corona virus has forced addiction treatment centers and sales organizations to open advertising doors they have ignored.

Even the big centers are facing issues with a poor social media presence.
Drug Rehab Social ‘Media Marketing is for All addiction Treatment Industry Businesses
Drug rehab social media marketing is even more important for industry related sales and service organizations. Social media advertising is not for fun. It’s much different than being on these platforms for fun. There are specific goals and tools needed that companies must learn to be effective and not waste valuable company time.

Using Drug Rehab Social Media Marketing
Everyone thinks drug rehab social media marketing is easy. They do not understand the platform and what maximizes time and gets in front of the target audience. The second problem is they are short-sighted. They are expecting immediate results. However, organic social media marketing pays bigger dividends than pay per click. Consider this, a company puts a social media strategy in place after getting trained on what needs to be done.
They have one individual run this program. If they are paying that individual let’s say $35,000 a year, they would probably need about three admits or clients to break even in a 12 month period. I guarantee that you will get more than three clients in a 12 month period if you effectively use social media.
It’s funny, almost every drug rehab marketing agency says they do drug rehab social media marketing. They will half ass build the LinkedIn and Facebook business profile. They then resort to posting a few post on the business page. Then they run Facebook paid ads off a landing page. They do nothing organically and once you stop paying Facebook your lead generation possibilities are shut off. This falls in line with the expectations of the industry that has traditionally relied on Google Ad Words and PPC.
BHNR Leads by Example with Their Drug rehab Social Media Marketing
Behavioral Health Network Resources spends a ton of time on social media with Facebook and LinkedIn for drug rehab SEO and marketing. Our drug rehab social media marketing has built over 60 groups with over 210,000 members.
While other advertising agencies were using one liners and paid Facebook marketing for their so-called social media marketing, we were doing drug rehab social media marketing.
With the completion of the Google March update it paid off more than we could have imagined. The update gives SEO juice for social media activity.
Understanding the platforms is critical to success. Consider this, Facebook in 2018 did an algorithm change and said they will no longer serve as many of the business posts. However, they will continue to serve the posts from personal pages and groups. So, this means focusing on the business page posts is just spinning your wheels. As a matter of fact, if a person does not manually change their preferences it won’t get served.
How to Use LinkedIn for Drug Rehab Social Media Marketing with Outreach and Sales During the Covid-19?
LinkedIn has always been the most underutilized drug rehab marketing avenue in the addiction treatment industry. This is surprising considering it’s the only place for two key target audiences. For treatment centers it has the private clinicians, EAP providers, hospitals, and many more key resources. For the sales and service organizations it has the CEO’s Executives and key decision makers for all the treatment centers and sober livings.
Behavioral Health Network Resources started in 2014 solely based on LinkedIn. We learned how to use level one connections for drug rehab marketing. We took the time to learn all the secrets, tricks and back-doors to using it. It is not as simple as everyone thinks and it has many unrealized advantages.
- Connect with your target audience as a level one connection
- Corral target audience in groups
- Get your Pulse posts read by the target audience
- LinkedIn email has a 90% open rate. However, you cannot spam this.
- An endless supply of drug rehab SEO back-links from a highly rated website by Google.
Behavioral Health Network Resources is the leader in our industry on LinkedIn with drug rehab SEO and drug rehab social media marketing. We have a combined total of 35,000 addiction and behavioral health level one connections. We own 12 addiction and behavioral health groups with over 50,000 members. This has been one of the keys to our success because we can drip our message to our target audience. If you remember from above, a sales landing page is ineffective. Successful advertising in 2020 is keeping your content in front of your target audience, addressing their pain point and not directly selling to them.
We have learned many secrets and tricks that no others have found. We have mastered how to get LinkedIn profiles to show up on page one of Google. Try and Google;

Sales and Service Organizations Need to Build their Drug Rehab Social Media Marketing
Facebook is undoubtedly the #1 social media website. It is an absolute must for drug rehab marketing. There 2 billion registered user. Next to Google you have to have a prescience here. As a sales and service organization many in our industry solely rely on “boots on the ground”. Besides that they will attend a few select addiction conferences. This is the extent of the advertising. The biggest area they are missing is LinkedIn for sure. This is where they can find their target audience. However, they do not know a lot of the ways above to maximize LinkedIn.
They need to be building level one connections with CEO’s, Executives and Directors. They need to do pulse posts and re-share them 3 times a day. These posts need to be much better than their companies blog posts.
Those posts are all about the company they work for, they are not about attracting and engaging the target audience.
You need content that hits their pain point and provides a solution, all the while not being salesy.
Another thing they need to be doing is posting the attracting and engaging content in related groups. These groups for CEO, Executives, and Directors can reach at least 500,000 in their target audience
