Minneapolis, St. Paul, Bloomington: those are the principal cities in the Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI metro area, and Google treats each search location separately. That is why service-area planning matters more than ranking for a city name.

Where patients leak

Three leaks we look for in Minneapolis

  • A full or uneven caseload

    Many therapists have waitlists in some hours and openings in others. Marketing needs to match the openings you actually have, such as evenings or telehealth.

  • Privacy comes first

    Prospects worry about who sees their information. Forms, ad tracking and follow-up messages have to be set up so health details are not collected where they should not be.

  • Ad platform restrictions

    Major ad platforms restrict health-related targeting and personalization. Campaigns have to describe your services and location, not speak to a person's diagnosis or personal situation.

Fit

Who we work best with in Minneapolis, MN

A good fit

  • You want a website and inquiry process that respects privacy
  • You run a private therapy, counseling or psychiatry practice with room for new clients

Probably not a fit

  • You want testimonials or reviews gathered without consent
  • You expect promised client counts or a promised ranking

No. We work with mental health practices of all sizes across the United States, including small towns. The plan always starts from your own service area.
