Why You Need a Marketing Data Base Especailly Now with COVID?

September 21, 2020

COVID Has Made Marketing To Lead Sources Critical

Geriatric Care Managers Need a Marketing Database

You need a marketing or Contact Management database( CRM) to market to lead sources. An aging life or geriatric care management agency’s marketing has three key target audiences or lead sources: individual clients who need care, referral sources, and children of aging parents.  Marketing databases are the key to reaching lead sources such as 3rd party referrals like elder law attorneys, upscale assisted living, trust officers, concierge physicians.

In the Deadly Fall Confluence of COVID and Seasonal Flu You Really Need the Right Marketing DataBase

The JAMA Journal tells us “The confluence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and seasonal influenza this fall and winter will result in considerable morbidity and mortality, stressing the health

system. With more than 200 000 COVID-19–related deaths already, the US could see a second wave of disease later this year. In 2018-2019 (a “moderate” year for influenza), the US experienced 35.5 million influenza cases, with 490 600 hospitalizations and 34 200 deaths related to influenza.1 An effective COVID-19 vaccine is unlikely until 2021. Even though seasonal influenza vaccines have variable year-to-year effectiveness, they can significantly reduce morbidity and mortality, especially with high coverage.”

Why Do Care Manager’s in Business need a Rolladex on Speed ?

January 9, 2020

You Need a Rolladex on Speed

If you are an aging life or geriatric care manager- you need a contact database or Customer Relationship Management database CRM. This is a marketing database where you store the customers you market to and is a tool to do that marketing. Think of this as your old Rolodex on speed.

Customer relationship management software is a tool to organize your contact info and manage your relationship with current and prospective customers, clients, and other contacts. They’re address books on steroids—the modern version of old-fashioned Rolodex.

Any aging life or geriatric care management business has to start out with a foundation of great customer relationships. Get the CRM database before you open your doors and fill it up with referral sources to your customers- mainly- elder law attorneys, trust officers, concierge physicians and all target professionals who refer families to you who need GCM.

 You, the aging life or geriatric care management seller, must connect with aging families who need your product. The best way is through your CRM database and these key referral contacts.

As your company expands these Aging Life or GCM business connections grow more sophisticated.  You start to manage a myriad of connections, across time, within each referral contact you do business with.

It is a tool because unlike a Rolladex, or an Excel spreadsheet with lists of marketing targets, a CRM can send a form elder law letter to all elder law contacts individually addressed.  You can use the CRM to track all calls, newsletters sent, emails, or marketing visits to a concierge physician to track the ” touches” you made in marketing to that third party. It will do mass mailings even newsletters.

 

Add Your Continuum of Care To Your CRM

You add all of your “continuum of care” or all aging health care contacts in the community that older clients might need as they age. Why? These health care contacts (physicians, elder mediators, CCRC, elder law attorneys , assisted living, or MFT who specialize in aging) help you weave a care plan-

You use the CRM marketing database to track marketing appointments customers etc. But what do you do when you show up at the marketing appointment. Do you know how to market to third parties like attorneys, concierge physicians, wealth managers, etc. ?
