The Challenge

In 2017, we began working with Dr. Wayne Cottrell & Co., a family GP practice in Canary Wharf with specialisms in sexual health, travel vaccines and nurse services as well as a prominent LGBTQIA-friendly practice. The primary challenge was to salvage their Google Ads account, which was on the verge of being blacklisted due to numerous policy contraventions. These issues stemmed from the sensitive nature of their services, particularly related to fertility treatments and what Google deemed “Speculative and experimental medical procedures.” The mismanagement by a previous agency had left Dr. Cottrell concerned about the account’s performance and its future viability.

“I have been working with Matt for over 3 years and have found him very easy to work with, very responsive, personable and extremely knowledgeable when it comes to SEO’ing and marketing.”

The Process

  • Google Ads Rehabilitation: We carefully restructured the account to comply with Google’s policies without compromising on the practice’s core messages. This involved creative copywriting for both ads and landing pages to avoid further contraventions.
  • Content Marketing: We initiated a targeted blog post strategy to enhance organic search visibility for the website.
  • Social Media Marketing: We expanded our efforts to Facebook, creating policy-compliant advertising campaigns and engaging social media posts. This required innovative graphics and imagery to navigate health policy restrictions.
  • Search Engine Optimisation: We implemented comprehensive SEO strategies to improve the website’s overall visibility in search results.
  • Reviews Management: We established a system to effectively manage and leverage patient reviews.
  • Email Marketing: We developed a segmented email marketing strategy to maintain high open rates and engagement.
  • Google Business Profile Optimisation: We ensured Dr. Cottrell’s Google Business Profile remained up-to-date and optimised for local search.
  • Website Design: Our most recent audit led to design changes on the website to improve user experience and conversion rates.
