Dental Implant Leads: What a Booked Consult Costs and How to Convert More

Dental implant leads are expensive, so the number to manage is cost per confirmed consult and cost per case, not cost per lead. Delmain, an implant marketing agency, benchmarks a qualified confirmed appointment at $300 to $600, a show rate of 80% or higher and cost per arch sold at $3,000 or less. Fast response and persistent follow-up on leads you've already bought are the cheapest way to improve all three.

• Cost per qualified confirmed consult: $300 to $600 (Delmain, agency benchmark)

Where do implant leads leak?

• Slow contact. Leads come in at night from ads and get a call the next day.
• Few attempts. Two calls and a voicemail, then the lead is marked dead.
• No-shows. Consults are booked and missed, and nobody rebooks them.
• Consults with no decision. Patients leave to think about cost and financing.

How do you convert more implant leads?

Contact within minutes, text as well as call, follow up for weeks rather than days, rebook every no-show and reopen leads from the last 3 to 12 months. Keep texts minimum-necessary and free of clinical details. See unscheduled treatment follow-up for the post-consult side.
