5 End-of-Year Marketing Tips to Boost Your Acupuncture Practice

As an acupuncturist, you know the end of the year can be a busy time for your patients—and a crucial time for your practice. With holidays approaching, insurance deadlines looming, and people thinking about their health, now is the perfect moment to reengage your patient base and attract new clients.

Here are five proven strategies you can start using today:

1. Patient Reactivation Campaign – Patients get busy, but that doesn’t mean they’ve forgotten you. Sending a friendly reactivation email or phone call to those who haven’t been in for a while can lead to a significant boost in appointments. Make it easy for them to come back by offering a special promotion or an exclusive deal for returning patients.

At AcuDownloads, we offer pre-written email templates and newsletter content to make reactivating your patients as simple as possible. Download templates here.

2. “Use it or Lose it” Insurance Campaign – Many of your patients probably have FSA or HSA benefits that will expire by the end of the year. A quick reminder that they can use their benefits for acupuncture before they lose them can drive traffic into your clinic. Craft a campaign around the theme of “Don’t let your benefits go to waste” and make it easy for them to book online.

3. Host an End-of-Year Holiday Event – Everyone loves a holiday celebration! Hosting a small gathering, whether it’s in-person or virtual, is a great way to thank your patients and introduce them to new treatments or services. Consider offering free mini-treatments, hosting a raffle, or providing discounts on packages to encourage bookings.

Use this time to share valuable tips, seasonal health advice, and holiday wishes, keeping your practice top of mind.
