5 Mobile Marketing Must-Haves to Reach More Patients

5 Mobile Marketing Must-Haves to Reach More Patients

Mobile marketing is essential as patients spend hours every day on their phones, including when searching for healthcare services. Whether they’re Googling symptoms, researching providers, or looking for urgent care nearby, the majority of these searches happen on mobile devices.

If your healthcare marketing doesn’t prioritize mobile advertising, you’re missing out on high-intent patients ready to take action. Here’s how Rave Health helps healthcare organizations maximize their mobile ad strategy for better engagement and conversions. This goes beyond just showing phone optimized ads, but also engaging in SMS messaging! Recently, marketers globally have shifted from capturing email data to capturing phone numbers since SMS campaigns have an open rate of 98%!

1. Location-Based Targeting: Reach Patients When They Need You Most

When a patient searches for “urgent care near me” or “best cardiologist nearby”, you want your ad to appear at the right moment — and in the right location.

Geofencing ads show targeted promotions when patients enter a specific area.
Click-to-call ads let them instantly connect with your office.
Proximity-based search ads ensure your facility ranks first in local mobile searches.

How Rave Health Helps: We use hyper-targeted digital advertising to reach patients searching for services in your area, ensuring your ads drive real action.

2. Click-to-Call Ads: Convert Searches Into Appointments Instantly

Most mobile users don’t want to fill out long forms — they want a fast, one-click way to schedule an appointment. Click-to-call ads let them connect with your office instantly.

✔️ Ads display a prominent “Call Now” button for direct action.
✔️ Calls from mobile ads tend to have higher conversion rates than form submissions.
✔️ Works especially well for urgent care, specialists, and same-day appointments.

How Rave Health Helps: Our conversion-focused ad strategies ensure your click-to-call ads drive real patient inquiries and bookings.

3. Mobile Retargeting: Stay Top-of-Mind for Patients Who Didn’t Book

Not every patient schedules an appointment the first time they see your ad. Mobile retargeting ensures your practice stays front and center until they’re ready to take action.

🔹 Show reminder ads to users who visited your site but didn’t convert.
🔹 Retarget based on service interest (e.g., a patient researching joint pain sees an ad for orthopedic care).
🔹 Use social media retargeting to engage patients scrolling on Instagram or Facebook.

How Rave Health Helps: We build custom retargeting campaigns that re-engage potential patients, increasing appointment rates without wasted ad spend.

4. Social Media Mobile Marketing: Engage Patients Where They Already Spend Time

Patients aren’t just using search engines — they’re on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, looking for health information and provider recommendations. Social media ads tailored for mobile users help you meet them where they already are.

✔️ Video ads showcasing patient success stories or provider expertise.
✔️ Lead form ads that collect patient inquiries without leaving the app.
✔️ Carousel ads highlighting multiple healthcare services in a swipeable format.

How Rave Health Helps: We create highly engaging, mobile-optimized social ads that convert scrolling into scheduled appointments.

5. Mobile Search Ads: Own the Top Spot on Google

When patients search for a doctor or treatment, they’re most likely to click on the first result they see. Mobile search ads put your hospital or practice at the top of Google, ensuring you’re the first choice.

🔹 Use high-intent keywords like “same-day urgent care” or “best physical therapist near me.”
🔹 Add sitelinks to direct users to booking pages, patient testimonials, or service details.
🔹 Leverage voice search optimization for patients using Siri, Google Assistant, or Alexa.

How Rave Health Helps: We optimize mobile search ad strategies to ensure your hospital or practice dominates local search results.

Final Thoughts: Mobile Ads Are the Future of Patient Acquisition

If your healthcare marketing strategy isn’t mobile-first, you’re losing high-intent patients to competitors who are.

With Rave Health’s data-driven mobile ad solutions, you can:
Target the right patients at the right time
Convert searches into immediate calls and bookings
Stay top-of-mind with retargeting and social media ads
