D2C menopause clinics: staffing before spend
Paid acquisition converts faster than clinical hiring completes. Launching in the wrong order produces a waiting list and a refund queue.
A menopause proposition can go from campaign live to booked-out in under three weeks. Recruiting and credentialling a specialist clinician takes considerably longer than that.
Run the clinical build one quarter ahead of the marketing build. Bank a small sessional bench, validate consultation length against real cases, and only then open the acquisition taps.
The clinics with the best retention in this category are not the ones with the best funnels. They are the ones where the second appointment is available when the patient wants it.
