A focused alternative to the healthcare marketing agency retainer.
Lanza is a healthcare marketing agency alternative for solo and small medical practices. It handles the recurring work behind content, Google Business Profile planning, campaign ideas, approval, and weekly reporting so the practice can stay visible without a large retainer.
The point is not to make Lanza look like a full-service agency. The point is to isolate the weekly work small practices need most.
Option
Typical cost
Best for
Limit
Healthcare agency
$750-$25,000+/mo
Full-service SEO, PPC, website, reputation, and reporting programs.
High retainers, slower kickoff, and more meetings than many small practices want.
Freelancer
$500-$2,500+/mo
One-off design, posting help, or light social media support.
Quality and consistency depend on one person, and strategy is often thin.
DIY tool stack
$0-$300+/mo + staff time
Practices with a marketer on staff and a clear content process.
The work still falls on the doctor, office manager, or front desk.
Lanza
$197/mo
Recurring content creation, channel planning, approval, and weekly improvement.
Does not replace full ad buying, CRM, EHR, reputation management, or booking attribution.
What Lanza replaces

Researches what nearby patients are searching and asking about.
Prepares social posts, educational content, Google profile updates, and campaign angles.
Reports what it completed and what it recommends next week.
What Lanza does not replace
Lanza is intentionally narrower than a full-service healthcare agency. That makes the offer easier to buy and easier to measure.
Not a full paid-ad buying agency.
Not CRM, EHR, call tracking, or complete booking attribution.
Not outsourced clinical judgment. The doctor keeps approval control.
