Regulated, Restricted, and Intensely Competitive.
Addiction treatment marketing operates under some of the most restrictive conditions in digital advertising. Platform policies limit or prohibit targeting around treatment-related keywords. HIPAA requirements govern every interaction with patient data.
Competition for high-intent search terms is intense—and the stakes are higher than in most industries. Every lead represents a person seeking help, and the window of intent is often narrow.
DreamLife Recovery needed a marketing partner who understood the compliance landscape, could navigate platform restrictions, and could deliver consistent patient volume in a market where most agencies struggle to even get ads approved.
