Healthcare is notoriously complex. Today’s most pressing challenges for healthcare leaders—like workforce optimization, rising supply and labor costs, regulatory compliance and reimbursement concerns, and technology integration and cybersecurity all keep hospital leaders up at night and evolve frequently. Healthcare organizations face mounting pressure to not only deliver high-quality care but also ensure operational efficiency, all while navigating budget constraints. In turn, companies providing products and services to hospital leaders must continuously refine their message as hospital decision makers pain points evolve. This creates unique marketing challenges that require specialized expertise and strategies that resonate with healthcare executives. Slabtown Marketing, a premier healthcare marketing agency, has made it its mission to provide cutting-edge solutions tailored to meet these specific needs.
Slabtown Marketing understands that one of the biggest challenges facing healthcare organizations is scale and access to specialized talent. As organizations become more agile, there’s a need to augment staff by outsourcing specific marketing tasks to specialized external partners. This allows in-house teams to focus on their day-to-day operations. Slabtown offers their clients access to specialized solutions, including sales enablement, content marketing, web design, graphic design, and more. By focusing exclusively on the healthcare executive audience Slabtown ensures that healthcare companies have the expertise they need to execute their marketing strategies effectively and go-to-market with materials and messaging that resonate.
Slabtown’s team achieves this through a wealth of industry-specific knowledge, allowing their experts to plug into in-house marketing teams without the need for extensive onboarding—working closely with founders, presidents, CEOs, and business development and marketing leaders.
“Our deep understanding of the challenges faced by healthcare executives allows us to develop marketing strategies that are immediately impactful and aligned with the industry’s goals,” explains Jason Manke, CEO, Slabtown Marketing.
Slabtown Marketing’s services are designed specifically for the healthcare space, offering a full suite of marketing solutions that are strategically aligned with clients’ business growth goals. The company’s philosophy is rooted in understanding the “why” behind each marketing project—whether it’s developing growth strategies, building websites, creating branding, or crafting sales enablement tools. By ensuring that every project is tied to a clear business objective, Slabtown helps healthcare organizations maintain focus and achieve their desired outcomes.
Slabtown’s ability to execute on a wide variety of marketing initiatives is evident in their experience with targeted LinkedIn outreach, speaking engagement support, content development, and paid advertising campaigns. In the healthcare industry, where the sales cycle is often long and complex, Slabtown’s approach to thought leadership, case studies, and highly targeted advertising has proven effective in keeping their clients top of mind with prospects. One of the key differentiators of Slabtown is their ability to seamlessly integrate with in-house marketing teams. Given their background as in-house healthcare marketers, Slabtown’s founding team built the firm with flexibility and adaptability at its core. This allows them to blend effortlessly into their clients’ teams, scaling their services to meet evolving needs. “Whether a client requires support for a specific design project, development of case studies, or long-term strategic planning, Slabtown provides the expertise and agility to meet our partners where they are and add value,” adds Manke.
Moreover, Slabtown’s core strength is their ability to work collaboratively with existing marketing teams to fill any gaps. For example, the company has worked with a major healthcare logistics firm to elevate their brand and optimize their paid advertising strategy. By reducing irrelevant spending and focusing their ad strategy, Slabtown increased qualified paid leads by 931%, while reducing the cost per lead by 38%. Over the course of their partnership, they grew overall marketing qualified leads (MQLs) by 348% and increased LinkedIn followers by 20%. Slabtown’s ability to drive these impressive results is a testament to their deep industry expertise and their focus on delivering tangible business outcomes. “Our approach is to form partnerships with our clients. We want to see marketing strategies that are not only effective in the short term but also contribute to long-term business growth,” says Manke.
As healthcare marketing continues to evolve, Slabtown remains focused on expanding its reach into new sectors within the industry.
