Start A Therapy Practice Podcast

To get more referrals you need to be more helpful. Consider who you can help in your town that provide a service or product to your potential clients. Here's how it's done. 

The wealthy and successful and those who want to be are looking for real life interaction for themselves and their kids. There's a niche here.

Pay attention and write down questions that you get from your clients or potential clients. Answering these questions in a written guide can be a powerful tool to help potential clients choose you. 

Be helpful!

Cheri's mission is to educate teachers, schools, parents, and related professionals about dysgraphia and provide strategies to improve it and the educational system.

Her private practice niche is a growing one along with dyslexia. Cheri and Scott talk about the differences and similarities of dysgraphia and dyslexia.

We also talk about how to target and help parents choose you to help their child with these difficulties.

I paid someone $1,000 to create the first version of my practice website back in 2005 back when the internet was new and shiny. 

The next version I used Wordpress and created it myself. Now I have gone back to hire someone to re-create my practice website using Wordpress. This will give me the ability to tweek it and give me total control of my website. 

I'm also re-doing the StartaTherapyPractice.com website. Be sure to check out Podcast #67 where I give more detail about what to have on your practice website and go by StartaTherapyPractice.com/67 to get my free website checklist.
