How to Generate New Cash-Pay Patients with Instagram

In this highlights episode, Leon Knight explains how he uses Instagram to bring in at least one new patient per week! To some, that may not sound like a lot. But for a small cash-practice, that’s more patient generation via social media than I’ve heard of almost any practice owner doing without paying for ads on Facebook and Instagram (and it still beats most that are paying for ads).

In just a couple years, he built a large following for his solo cash practice from seriously humble beginnings—without a single paid ad. At the time of this original recording, Leon had over 75,000 followers, which is impressive enough. However since then, his following has grown to more than 200,000!

Leon shares exactly how he grew his large Instagram following, the type of content that works best to attract new patients, and how he positions his practice to stand out from the competition.
