What is one new patient actually worth to your practice?

Three steps, no sign-up: what one new patient is worth, how many leads it takes to win one, and the budget to hit your goal.

1
Your Goal

Start with your monthly goal.

How many new procedures do you want each month? Set that first, then add your economics. Every number below updates to show exactly what it takes to get there.

Your goal and economics

Set your goal, then your real averages. Rough is fine, you can move every slider.

Your goal CPL is a steady-state target, not a launch-day cap. Expect to pay more per lead during the first few weeks while the platform’s bidding exits its learning phase. Cut spend too early and the algorithm never gets the conversion data it needs to settle into this number.

Planning estimates only, based on the inputs you enter. Real results vary by market, offer, and follow-up speed. Not a guarantee of performance.

Your Funnel

But a lead is not a patient.

The two conversion rates you just set decide how many of every 10 leads become procedures. This is where the cheapest growth lives, because a better funnel beats a bigger budget every time. See the full lead-gen math →

You are right at the 10 / 4 / 1 goal. The cheapest path to the dream is a better consult close rate, not a bigger budget.

The Goal
10 / 4 / 1
Every 10 leads turn into 4 consults and 1 procedure. The number every practice should be built to hit.
The Dream
10 / 6 / 2
Same 10 leads, double the procedures. Where top performers land once intake and consults are dialed in.

Your Budget

So how much should you invest?

You know what a patient is worth and how your funnel converts. Now choose how hard to push. Each level sets your budget back in Step 1, so tap one and watch every number update.

Get Found
3–5% of revenue
$840–$1,400 /mo
Pure presence. You are not buying growth, just refusing to be invisible. This sits below the SBA’s 7 to 8 percent rule of thumb, which fits a mature practice with a full schedule and a referral engine already pulling its weight.

Compete
8–12% of revenue
$2,240–$3,360 /mo
The working budget where most practices belong. It lands on the SBA’s 8 percent floor and inside the 5 to 12 percent healthcare band, and it is the level where real lead volume starts to show up.

Dominate
15–20%+ of revenue
$4,200–$5,600 /mo
The aggressive-growth number for a saturated metro, a new practice building its base, or a group opening its third location. You are spending to take share, not just keep pace.

Dollar ranges are each level applied to the revenue your procedure goal targets. Benchmarks reference the U.S. Small Business Administration’s marketing-spend guidance and typical healthcare ranges; treat them as planning anchors, not rules.
