Canadian-specific costs, budget ranges, and honest guidance for practices of different sizes and growth stages.
The honest answer: $3,000 to $10,000 per month for comprehensive implant marketing. On the lower end, you're testing channels and building data. On the higher end, you're dominating your local market across multiple channels and procedures.
Here's what that breaks down to: Google Ads alone runs $2,000-$5,000 per month for competitive implant keywords in major Canadian markets. Toronto and Vancouver are the most expensive. Ottawa, Calgary, and Halifax are more affordable. SEO investment runs $1,500-$4,000 per month for ongoing content, optimization, and link building. Video production adds $500-$2,000 per project. Social media management runs $1,000-$2,500 per month.
Add them up and the range depends on how many channels you pursue simultaneously and how competitive your market is.
Marketing costs vary significantly by Canadian market. Toronto is the most expensive — high CPCs, intense competition, highest advertising costs in the country. Vancouver is similar. Ottawa, Calgary, and Edmonton are moderate — competitive but not Toronto-level pricing. Montreal has Quebec-specific requirements (bilingual content) that add production costs but lower ad competition. Smaller markets like Winnipeg, Halifax, and Saskatchewan have significantly lower advertising costs — and significantly less competition.
The ROI calculation changes by market too. A $5,000 monthly investment in Saskatchewan might dominate the market. The same investment in downtown Toronto would be a starting point.
