We’re back with part two of our deep dive into conversion.  Did you miss Part 1? Go back one episode and start there! 

Not just one but TWO conversion-obsessed data junkies share their best lead-generating and consultation-closing tactics, including the easy campaign that generated over 400 leads and 35 consultation requests with a single email.

In this deep-dive episode packed with actionable tactics, Andrea Watkins and Eva Sheie uncomplicate what conversion really is and what a “good” conversion rate looks like. 

Hear the dumbest conversion-killers we’ve seen, so you can be a hero and fix these common mistakes to get more leads and more new patients immediately.

Every touchpoint with a prospective patient plays a role in converting someone from being merely aware that you exist to ready and committed.  When you know what conversions you should be measuring and how to measure it, you can quickly, affordably, and confidently get more of them.

That’s also why this podcast exists: to share the tools and strategies that make life easier for you and your patients.

About Todd Watts

Selling the practice is a big deal, but don’t panic just yet – you’re probably not getting fired! Doctors sell for a variety of reasons, and freaking out at first is normal. But a growth mindset beats a scarcity mindset every time and this is your chance to grow.

An advocate for doctors through complex financial transactions, Bill Walker shares what you should and shouldn’t stress about when private equity steps in, which staff they will want to keep, and what new benefits you can expect from being part of a larger organization.
 
Whether this big change is happening to you now or there’s even a hint of it on the horizon, hear what you might expect throughout the long process of acquisition and the key performance indicators that make investors take notice (and want to promote you).

Sure, that sounds really scary. But you’ll find out why you shouldn’t be afraid of it and how to do it in a way that doesn't make anyone think you’re a jerk. After all, it’s called giving feedback because it’s a gift.

Hear Kelcy, Blake, and Andrea’s takes on when and how to ask for a raise (and when NOT to), how to make the tricky shift from employee to manager, and more. 

From navigating the messy world of office relationships to stepping up confidently as a leader, Kelcy’s hard-earned wisdom is invaluable for anyone working in aesthetics from the front desk to the administrator.

Talking about money is awkward, right? It’s taboo, it’s uncomfortable, and everyone has unspoken baggage around it. But success in aesthetics requires confidently discussing costs with patients, and being great at it helps you advance your own career.

To help you get over it fast, we’ve invited Janelle Robinson, COO of La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre, to confront the when, where, and how of talking about money. Find out how Janelle and her team navigate pricing conversations, build trust, and remove the fear factor from sensitive financial discussions for everyone.

In this deep-dive with Janelle, you’ll get *literally* valuable advice for talking about money with patients, including:

• How to answer those pesky “how much is it?” phone calls
• Why you shouldn’t be afraid to publish price ranges online 
• Exactly what to say to confidently discuss pricing and financing with prospective patients 
• What to do when a patient’s financing application is denied 

If you’re hoping to grow yourself and your aesthetic practice, mastering these communication skills is more crucial than ever  – and this episode will be your best-kept secret weapon.  

GUEST

Janelle Robinson, Chief Operating Officer at LJCSC
