Chiropractors:Is it time for a change? Are your practice-building efforts not bringing in the income you need? Do any of these describe you?
Growth Oriented. You know you can do more, want to do more, and should. You think big.
Your Practice Has Stopped Growing.
You have not achieved the goals you hoped you would when you began your
practice. You have tried different marketing approaches, gone to the
seminars and bought the binders, but your practice stays stuck.
Roller Coaster.
You are tired of the roller coaster: up one month, down another. You
seem to be able to push the practice forward with a lot of effort,
only to have the appointment book dry up a month or two later. The
stress is wearing on you, the staff, and your family.
“Been There, Done That...” You
have a mature practice that seems to have lost its life. You have
“paid your dues”, but the old tried and true procedures that worked
before don’t seem to have the same effect anymore. All the new seminars
seem like a rehash of the old. You know your practice needs something
different.
Marketing and Management:
Not So Much. You are an excellent chiropractor. You are just not
trained, skilled, or frankly not inclined to be a business manager and
or marketer. You know business management and marketing are important,
but you seem to have a built-in aversion to it.
No Time. You could be a better manager and marketer, if you had more time. There is just too much to do.
Associates.
You have an associate doctor, doctors, or are considering bringing one
on. But you have heard the horror stories and not sure it is worth it.
Need Something. Just know you need a kick in the rear, or SOMETHING, but all the seminar companies just don’t seem to be the right fit.
Practice has crashed. Help! Sudden changes have caused your business numbers to plummet.
A Different Approach We offer a different approach.
First, we’re different.
Experience.
We have been working with chiropractors since 1985. We formed our
company in 1988. Over the years, we have seen most every type of
practice situations possible. We have learned what works and what
doesn’t.
We are the oldest consultancy of its type in the U.S., specializing in on site services and customized practice building programs. With clients around the country, each week we are in doctor’s office’s working on practice development projects. From start-ups to group practices and multi-state clinic corporations, we have gotten results and continue to do so.
We are not doctors.
Our perspective is not limited by our style of practicing. Gonstead,
activator, MD/PT/DC, multiple doctors and multiple offices, we have
helped all types.
All we do. This
is it. This is all we do. We have made our living for a quarter of a
century by just coaching, consulting, and managing chiropractic
offices. This has not been something we did on the side while we sold
real estate, decompression tables, or had a practice once for a few
years. We have even put up our own equity to help open a large network
of offices (over 20) which we managed profitably. (But that is another
story. A wild one.)
Our service and program is different.
Everything we do is personalized.
When you hire us, we come on as part time staff manager and marketer.
We end up knowing you, your staff, sometimes even your mayor.
Our work is customized – for you. You are different and so is your situation. We help you work out practice systems that work best for you.
Our services are advanced. New.
We have developed a new model of practice building that works. It is
fun, profitable, and satisfying in the long run. We are now the
number one on site practice development company exclusively for
chiropractors in the world.
We deliver or die.
Call us crazy, and many have, there is almost nothing we won't
(ethically) do to help boost your practice and turn it into a
profitable and long term sustainable business. We are hard working,
relentless, and demons on follow through.
What You Can Expect
Personalized and Customized Service – Tailored all around you, your staff, your community.
Objective results
- If you use the ideas on this site and in our products and services
you will see real outcomes you can measure. You can expect to see the
following:
Your marketing will improve and you will get more new patients and returning patients.
There are no quick fixes, but there are tried and true methods that can
increase your new patients as well as returning patients. There are
also many new approaches, but old or new, you can get them here.
Your office volume will increase.
With more new patients and returning patients, improved quality of
service and retention procedures go into place to create lifetime
customers. All of these forces combine to balloon your practice volume.
You will make more money.
While this is not your only goal, there are few things worse than not
having enough money to pay your bills, pay off loans, pay for kids' education, take a vacation now and then, let alone save for retirement.
But improved financial solvency and business profit is the goal of any
business and an essential element to support a healthy practice.
Improved practice systematization and office organization.
With our continuous improvement process called the Practice Development
Process, your practice will gradually grow and production will not only
increase, but become more consistent. Staff performance will improve
and stresses will decrease.
Better management and leadership skills.
Your primary role is that of doctor. However, you also have to be better at business, including marketing, managing, and leadership. Your
proficiency in these skills will improve, allowing all your clinic
operations to run more smoothly and profitably.
More time to devote to your greater goals.
You have greater purposes. These include the welfare of your family,
your church, community, your profession, and your personal development.
