The Louisiana read
What Paid ads has to solve in Louisiana.
Auction pressure
With 14.9 BCBAs per 100k residents, Louisiana has unmet demand - families wait 9–12+ months. Paid ads here are rarely about winning auctions; they're about not buying inquiries you can't staff. We pace spend to intake capacity and use waitlist-aware messaging.
Coverage-qualified copy
Ads and landing pages should qualify by coverage before the click. In Louisiana, Act 648 (2008) caps coverage at $144,000 (through age 17) and covers through age 17; saying who you can serve - and which payers you take - filters out inquiries intake can't use and lowers cost per qualified inquiry.
Geography
Providers concentrated in New Orleans, Baton Rouge, and Shreveport. Rural parishes have extremely limited access. Campaign geography should mirror that map: tight radiuses around each clinic, broader in-home or telehealth targeting where families have no nearby option.
Recruiting
Paid also fills the clinical pipeline. With BCBAs averaging about $62,031 and RBTs about $14.17/hr in Louisiana (below the national average), recruiting campaigns with the right offer often return more growth than another family-acquisition campaign - capacity is usually the constraint.

FAQ
Paid ads questions from Louisiana.
Q.01How much should an ABA provider in Louisiana spend on ads?
Enough to fill the capacity you have, and no more. We size budgets from open caseload slots, your intake conversion rate, and the cost per inquiry in each Louisiana market, then scale on cost per qualified inquiry. Our free marketing budget planner gives a starting range.
Q.02Can ABA providers in Louisiana use remarketing?
Not on autism-related browsing. Google's personalized-advertising policy treats health conditions as a sensitive category, so remarketing audiences built from visits to ABA or autism pages aren't permitted, and Meta restricts health-based targeting too. We build on search intent, geography, and contextual targeting instead, with HIPAA-conscious tracking.
Q.03Should paid ads in Louisiana target families or BCBAs?
In Louisiana, often BCBAs first. With families waiting 9–12+ months, demand rarely needs buying; clinical hires are what unlock revenue. We split budget by whichever constraint is binding that quarter.
