In this solo episode, Dr. Mike Woo-Ming walks you through a proven, step-by-step process to validate your online business idea before you invest time, money, or energy. From identifying pain points in your medical practice to using keyword research, competitor analysis, and building an engaged audience—Dr. Mike shares how to minimize risk and maximize potential for physician entrepreneurs.
