As more hospitals launch their social media campaigns, it is more likely that your own medical lead generation could get lost in the Web2.0 land rush. Here’s a few tips to help keep your own healthcare online marketing campaign head and shoulders above the rest.

1. Don’t use social networking robots. There are a lot of sites out there that can provide a lot of empty stats like lots of followers and fans, but the real metric that counts is the amount of interaction your campaign receives.
2. To receive more interaction with your readers and followers remember that social networking is all about sharing. Launch a giveaway, host a contest, or provide some kind of content that is unique to your industry.
3. To keep your campaign fresh and dynamic, assign a creative person inside your organization to run your social network accounts. They should show a strong knowledge on how the social campaigns function.

There are many different types of social networks that your business could use, so make an informed decision about what kind of network best suits your company’s personality. For example, take a look at this pie chart of the types of platform that US hospitals are using.
