Don’t be frightened…“The Chiropractor’s Curse” is not one that needs Harry Potter to break the spell, it’s something you can tackle yourself if you know what to look out for.

Our profession loves the next shinny penny and I mean LOVES it.

We’re constantly in the search for it and when we find it, we snatch it up like it’s gold…until it’s magic wears off and the search for a new one ensues.

This cyclical activity that dominates the marketing radar for most chiropractors keeps them attentive to new ad tactics popping up on Facebook, new ways to bot social media followers, click-bait, bait and switch tactics…essentially anything that looks and appears new and claims to deliver 100’s of new patients.

Aside from the obvious fact that even if it did work, the majority could never process that many new cases properly. It also soaks up the time and energy that could be allocated towards building a lifetime strategy and follow up systems to support it.

In this episode we give you tools to avoid this trap and build a strategy that yields big ROI over the long haul. Read More

Handling objections is generally one of the least liked components of a successful practice.

I say successful, because without handling objections, your chance or growing and developing the practice of your dreams is nil. Zero. Zilch.

Love it or hate it, that’s just the way it is… and the sooner you realize it the sooner your practice can move the needle.

The question is how do you best handle the types of objections you get in practice? Whether it’s on day 2 during the agreement, daily visits or it’s that no one wants to come to your workshops, this is an essential skill that you MUST master!

As much as there are tactical steps and conversation frameworks that would benefit you to know, it’s one, single piece that outperforms all the rest…

Surprise, surprise, it’s mindset. However, the mindset I discuss on today’s episode is not the head-space you typically hear about…

It’s not “Fake it til you make it” or some variation.

It’s building YOUR foundation by developing your self-esteem and knowing where you draw your line in the sand.

On today’s episode of Life By Design For Chiropractors I’m joined by Dr. Kreso Jug as we tackle this extremely important starting point for addressing objections in your practice.

Whether we like or not, it’s normal for patients to fall off track, be affected by their financial and scheduling situations, have challenges that need addressed or drop out of care all together.

In most cases, doctors or their teams simply let people walk away.

I’m not suggesting you “twist anyone’s arm” but without an honest conversation, do you really know what their ACTUAL concern is?

What if they simply needed to be heard outside your regular check-up?

What if they didn’t want to drop out, but facing some life stress, didn’t know how to react?

What if they wanted to stay under your care for a lifetime but required a different schedule to make that happen.

You can accomplish each of these without giving up the authority, credibility and trust you need to lead your community.

Done well the results can be more of each and a reinforcement of your patient’s commitment to the process. Done poorly or not at all…your patient is all but gone forever.

The “Special Visit” protocol is a MUST have system in your practice.

On this episode of Life By Design For Chiropractors, we give you the basics to get you started creating and implementing this important system into your business. Read More
