Many PT’s don’t believe they possess the skills to set themselves apart from other PT’s

What really sets you apart from other options? It’s not “physical therapy” or your manual therapy skills.

It’s your “soft” skills.

The questions you ask.

The touch.

The time you have for patients.

Your follow up (automated and in person).

Your personality, marketing, and enrollment process.

If you’re looking to launch a cash practice this year, you need the CashPT® Checklist.
