  • Only 2 Ways To Reach More High-Value Patients
    Feb 3 2022

    Introduction

    Dear clinic owner/manager,

    Thank you for reading this. I know our time is valuable and I will do my very best to earn your trust by getting straight to the point.

    So, the purpose of this blog post is to share with you in less than 5 minutes with 5 simple images, exactly what you can be doing right now as a clinic to reach more new and high-value patients.

    Think of it as getting an "MBA in Clinic Marketing" and explain it in such a way that even a 12-year-old, a non-English speaker can understand it.

    About

    Before we get started, (and because I really want you to take this information seriously) please allow me a moment to briefly introduce myself.

    I am the co-founder of a relatively successful dental clinic, (5 doctors / 5 million euros per year) with learnings from 13 years of consulting for more than 126 clinics both small & large across 26 countries to increase their revenue, reputation & results collectively by over 31% - yes, even during the COVID pandemic & lockdowns.

    During those years, I too have been confused & misguided in the past about how best to reach new patients, thinking that there are so many different ways to choose from.

    I was wrong.

    I want to save you from the same mistakes.

    So here it is:

    No matter what "marketing agencies" and "business growth consultants" want you to believe...

    There are only 2 ways to get your clinic more new or high-value patients...

    Only 2 Ways

    Yes, just 2. And that would be to:

    1. Do Marketing (nothing new here, apart from the fact that there are just 6 sources of new patient inquiries for you to focus on, so easy to do, and just 1.5 of those strategies cost real money, (1.5. is not a typo, I'll cover that later)

    or...

    2. Optimize The New Patient Journey (most clinics overlook this, but it is even easier to get more patients this way - and there are only 5 things to look at which I'll cover later)

    Ideally, you're doing both.

    But, unless you've just opened your doors to your very first patient just a few weeks ago, or no matter if you have just:

    10,

    100,

    or 1000 patients per week in your clinic,

    I'd start with...

  • The ultimate self-managing clinic system - Quarterly review
    Jan 20 2022

    Do you remember the last "great idea" that you tried to implement in your clinic?

    How did it turn out? Take a moment to think right now about the last "big improvement" that you thought about but never managed to implement.

    What happened there? 

    Well, if you're like most clinic owners, this "great idea" slowly suffocated. In-between patients, team motivation issues, technical, legal or other competing priorities in your medical practice and life outside of the clinic, your "great idea" then quietly took a bow and disappeared without anyone noticing, not even you.

    If you've done the thought exercise that I mentioned above, you've probably remembered once again that "great idea" you wanted to implement a few months ago. Now you may have decided that it wasn't the right time anyway and that you'll do it sometime soon.

    Perhaps this isn't your case; every "great idea" you have is put into place and gets tested and worked in the clinic immediately. However, in our day to day dealing with clinics owners and their teams all over the world - failure to implement good ideas and grow isn't as unusual as you might think.

    We have found that the best practice of the "quarterly review" changes this problem forever for the clinics that we work with.

    Instead of the "daily whirlwind" of dealing with patients, team & admin issues devouring all the time and energy your team desperately needs to focus on growing your clinic, the quarterly or annual review (when supported by the other 3 accountability cadences that we suggest implementing through the clinic boost method) makes sure that your "great ideas" get implemented fast.

    In this podcast, we'll discuss why the most successful clinics have a morning/afternoon off for getting their whole team together every 3 months away from the clinic to reflect on the 3 months past and set goals for the next 3 months to come.

    We'll also share with your the exact quarterly review & quarterly agenda taken from clinics of excellence so that you can implement the same in your medical or dental practice.

    Ready? Let's dive in.

    Why have a quarterly review in your clinic?

    Without the quarterly review, you'll continue to stay in chaos with:

    • Repeated Mistakes
    • Undiscovered team growth
    • Stalled growth of your clinic

    "We're already too busy!" I hear you say, so why have a meeting that takes half a day!? Yes - why do most successful clinics have a scheduled practice of taking a morning/afternoon off for a meeting with the whole team every 12 weeks and at the and / beginning of the year?

    Well, just like you do with your patients, this is a necessary time for a check-up of each system and person in your clinic to see if you are moving towards your ideal state.

    It's also a time to set new targets & implement new best practices.

    Here's a summary of how we suggest you should do it, based on the best practices of the clinics that we have worked with.

  • You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.
    Oct 8 2021

    (That's a quote by James Clear from a great book Atomic Habits.)

    When I talk to clinics they usually belong to one of these 3 groups:

    1. Freestyle
    They have vague goals. Just doing day to day work, hoping things will get better in the future.

    2. Goal oriented
    This is much better, these types of clinics do have exact goals based on facts, but they are struggling to achieve them.

    3. Systems oriented
    This is the way. These are the clinics that not only have goals but also put systems in place that are executed every day to bring them closer to their target and track their progress.

    By having systems that are followed, your clinic goals are not wishful thinking anymore but a reality that just needs to catch up with the present.

    What systems do you have in place to support your goals as a clinic?
