The Paul Gough Show

In this one, I share with you the story of one of the most ambitious and success-hungry PTs I've ever worked with. You're about to hear from Keith Roed - of Impact PT in Sioux City, Iowa - as he presents to the room at last year’s PPM LIVE (23) in Orlando. At each event, I invite 5 clients to the stage to share with the room their best lessons on growing a business as well as what worked in marketing to help them become so successful. 

Keith's story is one I will never forget: He called me in 2018 after handing in his resignation at the clinic where he worked at the time with the goal of starting his own clinic. The owner told him "You will never make it work"... Keith laughed and said "Watch me"... Anyways, fast forward a few years, and Keith has a 7-figure practice that is THRIVING. 

There's so much to learn from this podcast... be sure to listen to it more than once!

In this one, I share with you some amazing highlights from the keynote session James Lawrence gave at PPM LIVE in 2022. My favorite was when James spoke about it being ok to have a "five-minute pity party - but no more".

The best thing about this Podcast is not just the content, but the story behind how James was the INSPIRATION for the amazing Chris Nikic - who happens to be the speaker at PPM LIVE 24.

Turn me up nice and loud to listen to how it all works... 

In this one I share with you LIVE footage from when we had Dan Kennedy - the worlds No.1 Marketing Expert and  guy who taught me everything I know about Marketing - on my stage at PPM LIVE.

One of the things I got from Dan was the ability to make myself immune from criticism. Easier said than done, especially when you're in pursuit of a successful business that means you have to say and do things that lots of people don't agree with and we live in a world where most people have nothing else to do but pull other down.

Dan taught me that almost all people's opinions are irrelevant. It's one of the best SKILLS you'll ever develop. Turn us up nice and loud to hear more.

In this one I share with you my own experience of meeting and working alongside Daymond John at one of the past PPM LIVE events. I got to spend an hour or so with Daymond before he went on stage to deliver a keynote, and I learned that he thinks RADICALLY different about time and how to make the most of it. I'll tell you more on the podcast.

He then went on to talk about having just "27 summers left"... and what that really means to how he lives life. It blew the minds of everyone in the room. I'll let him tell you more about that one... turn us up nice and loud and enjoy the show.

In this one I RELIVE the magic of Marcus Lemonis - the Profit - who was last years headline speaker at PPM LIVE. 

Marcus delivered real GOLD to the room - the type you expect from such a successful business owner - but it’s what he shared with my KIDS before his talk that impressed me most…

See, Marcus gave my 7 year old the best lesson in business I could have wished for. Just before his keynote he took the time to explain to Tobias why although he’d made $300 at PPM LIVE (selling his daddy’s books to the attendees), he wasn’t able to KEEP all of that $300 as, “that’s not how business works”… 

Anyway, turn me up nice and loud to hear the full story, as well as listen to Marcus talk about: 

- Why Employees Should Come Before Customers in Business

- Unlocking Confidence: Overcoming Insecurity and Delivering Tough Feedback

- Creating Generational Wealth…

In this one I share 5 reasons why your team may be holding you back from the growth you crave. It's easy to think that it's all their fault, and that they're not good enough, but there's also the possibility that you - or your managers - aren't doing what you should be to grow their talent and develop their skills.

Turn me up nice and loud as I explore the different reasons for your frustration with your team's progress.

In this one I go deep into the mind of people stuck at a life that is what you might call "average". They get to a certain point, but they can't seem to get beyond it. Life is "OK" but it's not amazing. It's had some success, but there's also lots of frustration. 

In this podcast I describe a real-life situation I encountered with a PT who had quit her job but in the last 3 years hasn't been able to get her salary above that what she was making when employed. 

There' s probably a lot of reasons for it, but one is that she's being held back what I call "shadow weaknesses" in her life that until recognized are a permanent source of frustration that delay progress. Millions of people live with one or more such weaknesses. I wonder if you can recognize any of what is happening to this PT in your own life??

Welcome back to the Podcast! After a summer of travel, I have a LOT to share with you on the podcast. The first is the massive disruption that is happening over at Google which is causing a big headache for Clinic owners who have relied upon it for over a decade. 

The disruption is real. The question is, is it a temporary thing? Or, is this the end of Google Ads and that once very reliable platform being as effective as it once was? 

As they say, "every dog has its day"... is it time to start planning for life without Google ads?

On top of that, I share the amazing news about PPM LIVE 24 that is happening in Orlando, Oct 17-20... tune in to find out more about that and then book your seat at: www.ppmlive24.com (if you want my advice for which ticket, that will give you best value, book the "All Access" pass and come for FOUR days). 

Go to: www.ppmlive24.com now and use the word "podcast" to save $100 on any ticket. 

In this one, you can hear from 4 of the leading PT business owners in the USA at our recent New Jersey event. One panellist, Ida Hirst, from California, shared how she was considering closure as costs continued to rise, and insurance reimbursements tumbled. Fast forward a year in our community, and Ida is now much more profitable and has a higher percentage of cash-pay patients in her clinic.

And a special mention to Michael Chin, Jason Han, and Lauren Manna who also shared their biggest lessons on their path to very successful, and very profitable physical therapy businesses.

Our next event is in PPM LIVE in Orlando (Oct 18-19-20) and will bring together private practice owners from around the world...
