Dental marketing jobs
Let’s be honest—dental marketing jobs used to be about designing postcards, juggling Yelp reviews, and praying your Google Ads didn’t eat your budget alive. But those days are gone. The future? It belongs to marketers who know how to generate revenue, not just clicks. Especially those who can turn casual patients into loyal members, drive monthly recurring revenue (MRR), and scale the average revenue per patient by 2x to 4x with platforms like BoomCloud™.
So whether you’re a dental marketer looking to level up, or a practice owner wondering who to hire next, this one’s for you. We’re diving into:
-
Why today’s dental marketing jobs are built around revenue, not just “branding”
-
A story of a practice that used marketing + membership magic to 3X their patient value
-
Your ultimate skill set to crush it in a dental marketing role (hello, growth marketer with swag)
-
Why your future isn’t in getting more leads—it’s in building more loyal members who stick, spend, and smile
Let’s do this the Jordon Comstock way—fun, bold, brutally honest, and packed with real strategies.
The Dental Marketing Role Just Got a Whole Lot Smarter
Back in 2012, dental marketers could survive with a Canva account and a budget for Google Ads. But not in 2025. The new generation of dental marketing jobs are performance-based. Your value isn’t based on how “pretty” your website looks—it’s based on how much monthly recurring revenue (MRR) you help create, how many memberships you grow, and how much loyalty you drive.
So, what’s changed?
-
71% of patients research a dentist online before booking (2740consulting.com)
-
65% of dental patients would rather join a membership plan than deal with insurance headaches (nexhealth.com)
-
Practices using a membership model report MRR of $30K–$50K+ and ARR (annual recurring revenue) over $600K (boomcloudapps.com)
TL;DR: If your idea of dental marketing is still “let’s make a TikTok,” you’re missing the big picture.
Story: How One Marketer Turned a Dental Practice Into a Revenue Beast with Memberships
Let’s talk about Kelsey—a dental marketer hired at a mid-sized family practice in Oregon. Her first week? The doctor said:
“We need new patients. Leads are down. Can you fix our ads?”
But instead of launching another Facebook ad with a “$49 Exam & X-Ray,” Kelsey asked one thing:
“Why are we only focused on new patients when our current ones aren’t staying?”
Boom. Lightbulb.
She pitched a strategy:
-
Launch a membership plan using BoomCloud™
-
Rewrite the marketing funnel to promote recurring care, not one-time visits
-
Create a blog series and email drip campaign around “Why membership beats insurance”
-
Train the front desk to present the plan during check-in and treatment planning
9 months later?
-
780 active members
-
MRR = $31K | ARR = $372K
-
Revenue per member: ~$2,400/year vs $875 for non-members
-
⚕️ Staff engagement was up, cancellations were down
-
Marketing ROI improved 67%—more value from every ad dollar spent
Kelsey didn’t just run ads—she built a membership engine and helped the practice grow without constantly chasing new patients.
