PT Business BuilderDo You Really Want More New Patients?This is part of what we're doing currently. We are working on setting up some automation within your practice. Some automated things to gain past patients that maybe have completed their plan of care they're likely to return, they dropped off, they're likely to return.
I'm going to kind of compare and contrast. I'm not going to go into too much detail right now on the MailChimp end and on the Zapier end.

It sounds counterintuitive, but it was one of the most important business lessons I've ever learned. My father told me this over and over again and it took years for it to sink in.
We make choices all the time. I only was looking at the saving side, like I would look at something, "Oh, I can save money by doing this." But if it's costing you something on the other end, you might be saving money...

You start working and then one thing pops up and another thing pops up. And at the end of the day, you turn around, look, and feel like you did not get anything done. I mean, I know I’ve got a lot of work done, but I feel like I haven't got anything done.

First, the role of the front desk and drop off. The front desk is where your drop off starts. Your cancellation, no-show rate, and where all of our KPIs, they all start in that initial phone call. That's our first contact on as we've discussed...

How are you getting people to show up at your workshops? You can't close on, buddy. If there's no butts in the seats, there's a number of ways that people can do it.
Number one, you can do direct mail. You can send past patients, or you can get an old and new list, and send mail out to local people to try to reach out and engage them.

2019-11-0116 minPT Business BuilderThe one thing you need to grow your PT practiceThe one thing that I wish someone had told me along time ago is the fact that your customers or patients are interchangeable. Your patients are your customers.
What they think matters more than anything. What they experience really matters. What they think about you is absolutely everything.
The realization of this brings about a number of things. Number one, you have to measure what they think.

Then all the sudden changes happened. Everything fell out from underneath me. My practice went from killing it to not doing so good. I messed up, and I did this for years. I didn't pay any attention to anything.

The metrics that we're measuring aren't the real metrics that we should be measuring. We're looking at our metrics the wrong way. Our metrics are current metrics.

Honestly, a lot of us look at what we're doing, and we tend to look at it wrong. We have a hierarchical structure for our business. I’ll use a pyramid description here.
First off, we're a business. This is first and foremost what we are. Then, we are a service-based business. Above that, we are in health care. We help people who work on the human body.

A lot of times people get blow back on this. I talked to a ton of people that think it's easy. No. It is insane of you to think that they're just going to implement something new that's going to take them more work more time, more effort, with nothing in it for them.

I've been a therapist now for 25 years. I worked in the outpatient clinic setting for 19 years. One day, about Year 17 and a half into it, I'm in the clinic amongst a bunch of chaos. I'm sitting there - at the time, I was 45 - and I said, “I did not want to be a 50-year old staff clinician.”

According to WebPT stats, 11% of your people are actually eval no show. They'll go on a schedule, but they never come for that first visit. They go away.
This is why your first phone call and your front end script is so huge. Your follow-ups after that first phone call are huge. If we can cut that 11% in half, we...

It's about the founders of PayPal. I don't know how much everybody knows about PayPal, but when PayPal started, they were trying to get out there. There were other people before them that did exactly what PayPal did.
PayPal knew that they needed to go viral and needed to beat other people who were already there and already established to the punch. So when they were founded, PayPal...

It's been happening for a long, long time. Many businesses out there have gone viral. Many products have gone viral.
Everything from the pet rock to the iPhone and Facebook went viral. Facebook didn't go viral because of social media. It was one of the first social media platforms, but it still went viral.

You need a ringless call to voicemail messaging system, like Slydial. My software, the Aetas, does all these, but you can do with other stuff. Slydial will do it. You'll need a Zapier integration to make that work.
Then you will need some text messaging and email. You can get those from Infusionsoft. There's a number of...
2019-08-3010 minPT Business BuilderHow do you use NPS for your PT BusinessToday, we are going to talk about Net Promoter Score (NPS).
Basically, the Net Promoter Score is a question: How likely are you to refer family or a friend to our business or our physical therapy practice, in this case, on a scale of zero to 10?
We've all seen the question. However, everybody might not know what it is.
There was a professor at Harvard who did a ton of research on this question for years. He broke this question down into segments.

A lot of us, we look at funnels and we think of funnels in a certain way. We look and think about these funnels on the front end: ClickFunnels, Infusionsoft, or whatever sort of funnel you're using up front.
We look at these funnels and think about how we're using the funnel. When we're using the funnel, we look at it to get new people into our business or new patients into our physical therapy practice. The goal is to get them from the...

We PTs did some recent research in 2018. As per research, there are 75% of patients who don’t complete their plan of care. This is a huge number. That means three-quarters of the people who you bring in the front door do not complete their plan of care. They don’t stay or finish. It can’t be that good if they left.
A high percentage of our pa...

If you don’t embrace the change, you’re not going to see the change in your practice.

One of the things that really sticks with me is about one of my favorite books telling a story about a guy with the last name of Barnes. Most people probably don’t even remember him. He was the right-hand man of Edison. All of Edison’s stuff states, “Invented by Edison, installed by Barnes”.
The story of Barnes started whenever he was penniless. He had absolutely nothing. He went blind-baggage. We don’t know what that even means anymore. He traveled with the livesto...

First, when you are writing your email copy, you want to avoid the words “we” and “I”. The personal pronoun “I” is the most commonly used word in the English language. If you’re writing something to somebody else and you want to engage them and create a relationship with that person, you do not want to use the word “I”. In...
