The roadmap for growing a local Dentistry online is simple: capture new leads, conversationally convert those leads into patients, turn those new patients into positive reviews, and then reactivate those patients into repeat visitors. Here’s the playbook:

**Capture More Leads**

-   Install the [SMS Webchat Widget](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/sites/chat-widget/how-to-install-ghl-customer-care-s-chat-widget) on the Dental Practice’s website.
-   Integrate the Dental Practice’s [Google Business Profile](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/integrations/google-integrations/how-to-integrate-google-business-profile-gbp-with-ghl-customer-care) to activate Google Chat
-   Activate The [Missed-Call Text-Back](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/phone-system/messaging/where-and-how-to-configure-the-missed-call-text-back-feature) so that any unanswered calls to the Dental Practice immediately receive a text message saying, “Sorry we missed your call - how can we help?”

**Nurture Leads into Bookings**

-   Configure helpful [Text Snippets](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/marketing/sms-and-email-templates/text-snippets-templates) for phrases & links the Dental Practice often sends to people.
-   [Activate Conversation AI](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/ai-employee/conversation-ai-goals-prompts-and-actions/appointment-booking-in-conversation-ai) so the Dental Practice has a fully trained, always-on assistant to conversationally convert leads into bookings.

**Turn Leads into Patients**

-   Configure Payment Integration for [Payment Forms](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/payments/getting-started-w-payments/selling-products-on-order-forms-with-available-payment-providers), [Paid Appointment Calendars](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/calendars-and-appointments/calendar-settings-and-preferences/collecting-payments-in-calendars), [Text-2-Pay](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/payments/payment-links/text-to-pay-links), and[Tap-2-Pay](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/payments/mobile-payments-tap-to-pay/tap-to-pay).

**Turn Patients into Positive Reviews**

-   Configure [Email & SMS Review Request](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/reputation-management-and-reviews/review-requests/how-to-send-review-requests) Templates so the Dental Practice can quickly & easily request reviews with the tap of a button.

**Turn Patients into Repeat Visitors**

-   Configure Newsletter [Email Template](https://docs.ghlcustomercare.com/docs/marketing/templates-2/email-templates-vs-email-campaigns) so the Dental Practice can easily send out news, updates, and promotions to their contacts.
