  • 3 Ways To Get New Patients During COVID

    One of the biggest things I've learned in life is that crisis creates opportunity. As you all know, the last several months of life have been unpredictable, to say the least. We've all had to adapt and adjust in unexpected ways, and if you're running a business, then you've had to do that tenfold.

    For a lot of private practice owners, the Coronavirus has been a shock to the system. The extreme shift of seeing and helping patients to shutting their doors completely has left many at a loss on what to do next. There is no guidebook on the right thing to do, but I wanted to take some time and offer some hope and actionable advice you can utilize in your own business.

    Some of the clients we've worked with have used the COVID crisis actually to get more new patients. Their ingenuity has taken a bad situation into an opportunity to serve their community better and grow their business.

    The three significant areas they have addressed are as follows:

    1. Looking for gaps in communities
    2. Taking online content such as workshops and teaching materials to create webinars and generate leads
    3. Critically looking at their website to see if there are areas that can be improved to attract leads better
    4. Tune into this week's episode to learn how you can implement these strategies in your business!


      Key Takeaways:

      • Crisis creates opportunity (1:08)
      • A creative way to serve your community (4:35)
      • Why you should meet people where they’re at (7:03)

      • 5 Things You Should NOT Be Doing to Become a Private Practice Owner

        Welcome back to another episode of Patients On Demand! Today, I’m tackling a topic that is pretty difficult for a lot of entrepreneurs. As new business owners, we’re stuck in the position of doing everything to get the business up and running smoothly. In a sense, it’s totally a superpower. But it can also hold us back from growing and scaling our business. The truth is, to build, a business owner must figure out what they shouldn’t be doing. It might seem counterintuitive at first, but hear me out!

        Recently, my husband and I did something pretty crazy. We bought and sold a house in just twelve days. It was a complete spur of the moment opportunity, and we decided to jump on it. After reflecting on the experience, we both agreed it was the hardest we’ve EVER worked. Yes, even harder than spending all those nights as an entrepreneur burning the midnight oil. It turns out that getting a house ready for sale AND under a quickly-approaching time constraint worked us to our limitations.

        But it turned out to be an incredible learning experience for me. I learned the vital lesson of outsourcing. All I wanted to do during the move were tasks like changing the light bulb covers. The thought of organizing and packing up my office was way less appealing. But the truth was, only I could do that task. Anyone could paint a cabinet and change a bulb cover.

        If we wanted to get everything done in time, I would have to get comfortable delegating tasks. The same goes for your business. As a private practice owner, you’re not going to be able to juggle seeing patients and being a fully functional CEO. They are two separate positions. You’re going to have to choose.

        It’s not easy, but if you’re committed to growing your business, you will have to decide the things you will and won’t do. Today, we’re discussing five things you should not be doing if you’re dedicated to becoming a private practice owner.

        Key Takeaways:

        • Something crazy I’ve done recently (1:40)
        • An entrepreneur’s secret power (3:10)
        • Figure out what you don’t need to do (5:45)
        • The five things to give up doing (7:05)
        • The things you should be doing (14:24)
        • A decision you have to make (16:21)
