What's running now

Search

SEO and paid search targeted on TMS, Spravato, and general mental-health-care queries within a 10–15 mile radius of Marietta.

Social & video

Meta Ads across Facebook and Instagram, plus produced video content and short-form reels built around patient-education topics and clinic updates.

Press

A formal press release announced the Marietta location's grand opening and expanded services, distributed alongside the launch marketing push.

Direct mail

A geo-targeted postcard sequence mailed to the neighborhoods around the new location, the same area-farming approach used to build local awareness before a launch.

Out-of-home & events

Billboard placements and physical events, including the grand-opening ribbon-cutting and ongoing community sessions.

Reputation

Active review generation and monitoring. The foundation under the 5.0 rating and the BusinessRate recognition.

The lead signal

The clinic's appointment-request form had logged 799 submissions as of September 2026. This isn't a launch spike that faded: the first full month ran 33 requests, and two years later the form is still running dozens of submissions a month. Medication management for an existing diagnosis has been the single most-requested service in almost every period since launch, which has held steady as the clearest signal of what the market actually wants from this clinic.

"Connected Minds was rated Best Mental Health Clinic in Marietta by BusinessRate for 2025, and again in 2026 as of this writing."
