Strategic Foundation

Month 1 is about one thing: testing what resonates. No paid spend yet. We publish organic, track what stops scrolls, and use that data to build Month 2's paid strategy. Every post traces back to one of three psychographics drawn directly from our audience analysis. The 4 questions per psychographic come from the Content In Context document and are deployed sequentially across the 4 weeks.

Content Mix
50%Education / Awareness — What is DPC, how it works, why it exists. Speaks to The Confused. Drives search intent and saves. Targets San Antonio families navigating insurance confusion.
30%Emotional / Trust — Naming the pain of the broken system. Clinic footage, behind-the-scenes. Speaks to The Traumatized. High resonance in SA’s underserved patient population.
20%Performance / Value — ROI framing, access, efficiency. Speaks to High Performers. Targets SA entrepreneurs, military professionals & executives.
Platform Strategy
TikTok
Primary discovery engine. Hook in 2 seconds. Education-first. Repurpose every TikTok to Reels and Shorts immediately.
IG Reels
Visual storytelling + trust. Clinic footage performs well here. Shared by The Confused and The Traumatized.
Facebook
High Performers + SA family audience. Longer captions work. Boost 2 best performers in Week 4 with $50–100 test budget.

Q1 — Week 1, Monday
Primary Hook
“Do you actually know what you’re paying for every month with your health insurance?”
Caption
Most San Antonio families spend $400–$600/month on health insurance — and still can’t explain their deductible, their EOB, or why urgent care cost $200 when they “have insurance.” At Merlin DPC, you pay one flat monthly membership.

Bureaucracy Angle
“Why does getting healthcare feel harder than filing taxes?”

You need a referral to see a specialist. The specialist needs pre-authorization. The pre-authorization takes 2 weeks. And somewhere in there, you still feel unwell. The American healthcare system wasn’t designed for your convenience — it was designed for insurance companies. Direct Primary Care removes all of it. One doctor. One fee. Direct access. 🔗 Free Meet & Greet link in bio.

The 5 Non-Negotiable Rules
01Every post traces back to a psychographic AND a specific question. Each of the 12 primary posts answers one of the 4 questions per segment in sequence. If it doesn’t map to the matrix, don’t post it.
02Saves and shares beat likes. A save means someone will return. A share means free distribution. Track these every Thursday — never wait until month end.
03Every CTA goes to one place: the Merlin DPC Meet & Greet booking link. Not the homepage. Not the about page. One URL. Track clicks weekly in a shared sheet.
04Repurpose everything, no exceptions. Every TikTok → Reel + YT Short. Every Facebook graphic → Story. One shoot, four placements. Zero extra production cost.
05Week 4 Saturday is a data decision — not a creative one. The boosted post is chosen by metrics, not opinion. Whoever has the most saves + shares from Weeks 1–3 wins the $50–100 boost. No exceptions.
