Pricing models / Standard

A defined scope. A connected system. Clear delivery ownership.

You fund the agreed scope. MDS designs, builds and operates the growth system with clear deliverables, ownership, reporting and change control.

What it is

The default model for building and operating an MDS Growth System.

The Standard Model separates the commercial scope from outcome promises. MDS is accountable for the agreed system, execution, measurement and optimization; the healthcare organization remains accountable for its operations, approvals, capacity and patient experience.

Operating contract

Scope is explicit before execution starts.

Clear scope and responsibilities
Transparent platform and media ownership
Modular system delivery
Healthcare-safe approvals and claims discipline
Measurement and optimization cadence

Best when you need clarity before complexity.

Clinics and medical centers building or scaling acquisition
Hospitals and networks standardizing growth across service lines
Doctors and founders building authority and conversion infrastructure
HealthTech and medical tourism operators entering new markets
Organizations that want predictable scope before exploring deeper commercial alignment
Delivery sequence

A five-stage operating cycle with visible ownership at every step.

The sequence is simple on purpose: define the problem, design the system, build it, measure it, then improve the highest-leverage constraint.

01Discover

Map commercial goals, market context, capacity, systems and operating constraints.

02Design

Define the Growth System, modules, roadmap, measurement plan and owners.

03Build

Implement the agreed brand, web, content, media, AI and integration layers.

04Measure

Establish reporting definitions and review signal quality across the journey.

05Optimize

Improve the highest-leverage bottlenecks while maintaining change control.

System modules

The scope can be narrow or broad without becoming disconnected.

Modules are selected around the Growth System and operating problem. They are not automatically bundled into every engagement.

module 01Brand & positioning

Strategy, identity, messaging and creative direction.

module 02Web & conversion

Websites, landing pages, CRO, speed and trust architecture.

module 03SEO, GEO & LLM visibility

Technical foundations, topic architecture, structured content and schema.

module 04Content & social systems

Platform-native content and ongoing trust building.

module 05Paid media

Campaign architecture, creative testing, funnels and optimization.

module 06AI reception

Chat, voice, routing, qualification and human handoff where scoped.

module 07Analytics & attribution

Event definitions, dashboards, call/form tracking and reporting.

module 08Partner integrations

CRM, contact center, training, automation and other ecosystem layers as required.

Delivery control

A commercial scope should make execution easier to govern.

The roadmap connects workstreams to owners, milestones and measurement. That makes it easier to see what is being built, what is waiting on approval, what changed and where optimization should happen next.

RoadmapOwnersMilestonesApprovalsMeasurement
Measurement board

The model separates delivery performance from healthcare outcomes.

MDS tracks the agreed indicators without pretending every metric is directly controlled by marketing.

Demand

Qualified inquiry volume and acquisition efficiency in context.

Conversion

Lead-to-booking and booking-to-visit signals where available.

Reception

Response time, missed-call leakage and follow-up quality.

Visibility

Search presence, topical coverage and discovery trends.

Execution

Roadmap progress, delivery quality, approvals and experiment cadence.

Ownership & change control

No hidden scope expansion. No ambiguity about accounts and data.

These principles protect both teams as the roadmap changes.

01

The client retains ownership of its first-party accounts and data unless a written agreement states otherwise.

02

Media spend is typically paid directly to platforms.

03

Asset ownership and usage rights are documented in the scope or agreement.

04

New requirements are handled through explicit scope and change control rather than hidden additions.

Commercial note

Final scope, third-party costs, platform spend, asset rights, timelines and any performance-aligned mechanics belong in the written proposal or agreement. Nothing on these pages is a guarantee or a substitute for the signed commercial terms.
