Sudden Drop in Lead Volume?
Symptoms
Appointment requests, calls, or online form submissions decrease sharply, sometimes overnight. This can lead to empty chairs and lost revenue if not quickly addressed.
- Technical Issues: Website forms may be broken, phone numbers may be misconfigured, or booking widgets may not load on mobile. Always test these pathways regularly.
- Google Business Profile Issues: If your profile is suspended, edited, or flagged, your visibility in local search and Maps can disappear. Patients may not be able to find or contact you.
- SEO or Ad Problems: Drops in rankings or paused ad campaigns can mean fewer people see your practice when searching for a dentist.
- Reputation Shocks: Negative reviews or news stories can deter new patients from reaching out, even if you’re still ranking well.
Action Steps
- Check all lead sources (forms, calls, chat, booking) for technical errors.
- Review Google Business Profile status and accuracy.
- Analyze website and ad analytics for sudden traffic or conversion drops.
- Monitor review platforms for new negative feedback and respond appropriately.
- Have a backup lead channel (e.g., alternate phone number or emergency booking link).
