Medical marketing agency cost

What does a medical marketing agency cost?

Medical marketing agency costs vary widely. Social-only retainers commonly sit in the hundreds or thousands per month, while full-service healthcare marketing programs can reach five figures. Lanza starts at $197/month for the recurring content and channel-management work many small practices need first.

Comparison

Agency scope versus software speed.

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.

Healthcare agency$750-$25,000+/moFull-service SEO, PPC, website, reputation, and reporting programs.High retainers, slower kickoff, and more meetings than many small practices want.
Freelancer$500-$2,500+/moOne-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 timePractices with a marketer on staff and a clear content process.The work still falls on the doctor, office manager, or front desk.
Lanza$197/moRecurring content creation, channel planning, approval, and weekly improvement.Does not replace full ad buying, CRM, EHR, reputation management, or booking attribution.

Why agency pricing gets expensive

Traditional agencies package multiple service lines together. That can be valuable, but it is often more than a small practice needs at the start.

  • Strategy, SEO, paid media, website work, reporting, and account management.
  • Kickoff calls, recurring meetings, and a larger service team.
  • Longer contract terms or minimum commitments.

When Lanza is the better first step

Lanza is a better first step when the practice mainly needs the growth work to happen every week.

  • The website and core offer already exist.
  • The practice needs educational content and channel consistency.
  • The doctor wants approval control without managing a marketer.
