Many of the parents you adjust every week have never thought to bring their kids in. Others are interested but have questions first: what a visit looks like for a child, whether they can stay in the room, and how to prepare a nervous child. Answering those questions one at a time during a busy shift is hard to keep up with.
Sidewinder gives your office a branded Automated Patient Outreach platform that reaches patients by text and email, with pediatric campaigns ready to go. When a family brings a child in for the first time or shows interest, they receive a 6-week onboarding sequence written for parents. It explains what happens at a child’s first visit, how to help kids feel comfortable, what to bring, how follow-up visits are scheduled, and how to reach your office with questions. Weekly educational messages reach your broader list with topics like “What a Kids’ Chiropractic Visit Looks Like,” “Questions Parents Ask Us Most,” and “Back-to-School Checkups.”
Parents who already trust you are the best audience for pediatric care. Sidewinder cross-promotes your family services to your existing chiropractic patients and uses engagement scoring to show which parents are reading and clicking. Seasonal campaigns around back-to-school, sports season, and family referral promos keep your pediatric schedule in mind all year.
