From Keywords to Connections

Are Paid Ad's or SEO Better for Helping Professionals?

Mary Walker Season 1 Episode 5

Are you wondering whether you should invest in SEO or paid ads to grow your private practice or service-based business? In this episode, we break down the differences between the two—and why the best answer might not be either/or.

We’ll simplify digital marketing jargon and explain:

  • What SEO is (and how it builds long-term visibility)
  • What paid ads are (and why they deliver quick results)
  • How each method shows up on platforms like Google, Facebook, and Instagram
  • When to use one vs. the other—or both

💡 Whether you’re a trauma therapist, speech pathologist, coach, or other helping professional, this episode gives you the insight to:

  • Build a strategy based on your current goals and budget
  • Avoid keyword cannibalization (a common mistake that wastes money)
  • Use SEO and ads together in a smart, synergistic way

Plus, I share real-world examples, practical tips for beginners, and encouragement for those who feel overwhelmed by digital marketing.

Key takeaway?
👉 Think of SEO as your engine and ads as the fuel. Done right, they can work together to create sustainable, strategic growth.
