Most of what moves a practice isn’t fancy surgery—it’s systems that stack. In this month’s one-page report I cover what worked, what flopped, and what I’m doubling down on: a review engine that finally reversed our dip, a clean “Shockwave + Orthotics” bundled offer, and a simple automation cadence that’s pushing urgent-care traffic and Google Business visibility. I show real ModMed numbers, share the ad workflow my offshore team runs, and the FAQs I now hand patients so staff isn’t stuck re-explaining the same thing 20 times a day.
If you want me to walk you through seven specific revenue levers you can turn in 30 days, email me—happy to hop on and map it out with you.
SEO keywords: podiatry practice growth — Google Business optimization — shockwave therapy bundle — orthotics upsell — review management Swell — ModMed reports — urgent care marketing — patient FAQs
00:00 — Why I do a one-page report and what changed in October
00:34 — Local search “automation to dominate” and where it’s landing

02:29 — Monthly payments trend and the $80k/month personal benchmark
03:15 — Worcester vs Westborough encounter split (what the data says)
03:55 — Ad workflow: SubMagic captions → YouTube/TikTok → urgent-care page
04:50 — Higher-quality “longs” and why pro edits are outperforming my shorts
06:03 — New offer: $2,000 Shockwave + Orthotics bundle — plus a $60 downsell
06:51 — Reducing churn by building referral sources vs single-patient asks
07:23 — Asking “why not?” when patients decline — money vs belief
07:44 — Laminated FAQs for Shockwave, Swift, and Orthotics (and how I use them)
08:14 — Pre-visit video (VSL) to set expectations before they arrive
08:45 — Offshore team’s Google Business playbook: posts, Q&A, descriptions
09:51 — Review recovery: why we ditched Clara and went back to Swell
