You ever seen a kid lose their mind over a free bubble wand or fidget spinner?
Now imagine using that same energy to drive growth, boost loyalty, and crank up your monthly recurring revenue.
Welcome to the new era of pediatric dental office contests — where fun meets predictable income and BoomCloud™ turns happy little humans into revenue-generating members.
STORY: From Prize Boxes to Profit Machines
Dr. Mackenzie runs a thriving pediatric dental practice in Phoenix.
But like most pediatric dentists, she had three constant headaches:
-
High patient churn between visits
-
Parents ghosting on treatment plans because “insurance doesn’t cover it”
-
Unpredictable monthly revenue = never knowing what’s coming next
She was tired of doing pizza parties and free iPads just to maybe get return visits.
That’s when she had the epiphany…
“What if our contests were funnels into our patient membership program?”
Boom. Game-changer.
Contests Are Cool, But MRR Is Cooler
Pediatric dental office contests are great for attention. But attention is just noise unless it turns into recurring revenue.
What Dr. Mackenzie did was genius:
-
She kept doing fun contests (coloring, cavity-free clubs, spin-the-wheel, etc.)
-
BUT… she built a membership plan into the prize strategy
-
Every contest became a funnel into her BoomCloud™ membership program
Example:
“Join our Smile Stars Membership Plan and enter to win free Disney+ for a year!”
Result? Kids begged their parents to sign up. Parents said yes. Revenue soared.
CASE STUDY: How Contests Grew Memberships + MRR
Here’s how Dr. Mackenzie turned her pediatric practice into a monthly revenue machine:
The Setup:
-
Membership Plan = $29/month
-
Includes: 2 cleanings, 2 exams, fluoride, 1 X-ray set, 15% off any other treatment
-
Contest: Cavity-Free Club – monthly winner gets an iPad Mini
-
Entry = must be on the membership plan ✅
Results After 6 Months:
-
875 kids enrolled
-
Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR): $25,375
-
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR): $304,500
-
92% of members kept their 6-month appointments
-
Treatment acceptance up 3X — because discounts were baked in
BoomCloud™ handled the automation. She handled the high-fives and helium balloons.
Why Pediatric Dental Office Contests Work (When Done Right)
Let’s face it — kids love games, prizes, and being recognized.
But most offices treat contests like an afterthought. Here’s how to turn them into engines of growth:
Smart Contest Ideas That Drive Memberships:
-
⭐ “Smile Star of the Month” → Must be a member to win
-
Coloring Contests → Winner gets a gift card, but entry = enrolled family
-
Quarterly Giveaways → AirPods, Nintendo Switch, iPads (all tied to joining)
-
Photo Booth Challenge → Post + tag your office for bonus entries
-
Cavity-Free Club → Auto-enroll kids in drawing if they’re on the membership plan
Each contest becomes a lead magnet for long-term MRR.
The Real Power: Pediatric Memberships Build Loyalty and Lifetime Value
Parents love it. Kids love it. Your profit & predictability love it too.
