The goal

Good work, hard to find.

Skill is not the gap. The gap is the families and providers who should already know your practice exists.

  • Families may find the big clinic first, even when you are the right fit.
  • Referrals depend on a few providers who already know you.
  • Your site doesn't use the words parents search for.

Where the right patient comes from

Search

  • Google search
  • Google Maps
  • AI search

AI search means ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode.

Ads

  • Facebook ads
  • Instagram ads

Single image ads, graphics, illustrations, infographics and video.

Referrals

  • Pediatricians
  • Schools
  • Orthodontists
  • ENTs

Often referred from these sources. Yours may differ.

  1. The page on your website
  2. First call
  3. Evaluation booked

The system behind every campaign

The Double Jaw Method.

Two parts. The top jaw is the thinking and the bottom jaw is the action. For an SLP practice, both close on the family you help most.

Top jaw

The thinking.

It stays put. Decide this first.

  • Who the right patient is

    The client you help most, and what their family notices at home before they ever search.

  • What they search and ask

    The words parents use on Google and in AI search, which are often not clinical terms.

  • The message

    What a parent needs to hear to feel their child is in the right hands.

Bottom jaw

The action.

It does the moving, built on the top jaw.

  • Getting in front of them

    Your Google Business Profile, plus simple referral materials for pediatricians, schools, orthodontists and ENTs.

  • The website they land on

    Service pages on your website, written in parents' words.

  • Follow-up

    Inquiries answered quickly and a first call that makes a parent feel heard.

Once it is live: each campaign gets measured and tuned. Every family gets an easy way to leave a review.

Who does the parent reach first?

A parent calling about their child wants to feel heard. The plan covers who answers, how fast and what happens next before a single ad goes live.

  • Call tracking. See which source booked which patient.
  • A first-call script. Written with your team, not handed to them.
  • Follow-up. Reminders you approve before anything sends.
  • A report you can read. Calls, booked consults and cost by source.

First call: parent inquiry

Sample
  1. 01Ask what they notice at home, in their own words.
  2. 02Ask the child's age and who suggested they call.
  3. 03Explain what an evaluation looks like and how long it takes.
  4. 04Offer the next two evaluation times.
Sample script. You write yours with your team.

The patient side

Parents search in their own words.

Many parents search for what they see at home, not for a diagnosis. Orthodontists, oral surgeons and dentists see patients who may also need an SLP, and Blake has sat in those chairs himself, so those referral paths are part of the plan.

Take the scorecard

Straight answers.

The questions SLPs ask before the first call.

How long is the call?

15 minutes, by phone or Zoom. The calendar shows the open times.

Is the Method Review a sales call?

No. It is a working session on your numbers, and you keep the written Double Jaw Method Plan either way. If you want help after, the scope and the price come in writing first.

Why would a dental marketing brand help SLPs?

Because the work overlaps. Orthodontists, oral surgeons and dentists see patients who may also need an SLP, and connecting those referral paths is part of the job.

Who answers the phone if this works?

Your team does, with a plan in place before any ad goes live: a first-call script written with your team, call tracking by source and follow-up messages you approve before anything sends.

Do you work with solo SLPs?

Yes. Private practices and solo SLPs who want to be easier to find, get more referrals and fill their caseload with the clients they help most.

What does ongoing work cost?

It depends on the scope, so it is scoped and put in writing after the free call, before you commit to anything. Monthly work can run month to month or on a 6, 12 or 36-month term that locks in your monthly price for the term. Ad spend is separate and is never part of the fee.

Do you need our patient information?

You shouldn't need to share patient health information to see results. Reports count calls and booked evaluations by source, not patient details. If a tool would handle patient information, your practice decides with its HIPAA advisor whether a business associate agreement is needed first. This is not legal advice.

Do you follow professional advertising rules?

Campaigns are built with your licensing board's rules and the ad platforms' health policies in mind. In Florida that means the Board of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology and, for free or discounted offers, section 456.062. ASHA members also follow ASHA's Code of Ethics on public statements. Blake is not a lawyer, and this is not legal advice. You have the final word on every ad.

A written plan for the right caseload.

One 15-minute call and a written Double Jaw Method Plan aimed at the clients you help most, yours to keep.
