Baby Steps I receive a number of weekly replies from doctors needing assistance with one question or another. If it pertains to practice management, I try to help and/or refer them to one of the mentors on my webpage or to a weekend seminar to get a global picture of what is needed. I am partial to Dr. Pete Fernandez and can usually arrange, for a previously non- attendee, a free weekend at one of his Atlanta or Orlando seminars by having them call 800-882-4476. There are numerous consultants who may also offer the same, so don't be shy if you are hurting for advice and have found little outlet to receive it. Just visit my webpage and look under weblinks and then under consultants and check them out. But, my advice is quite simple; take baby steps and plants strong seeds to insure a rich harvest. First step is to always invest in your business first prior to throwing good money after bad in a speculative stock market. There is no better way to create new and ongoing income and generate a lifetime of goodwill then having a successful business. So, reinvest when times are good to cushion you when they are down and always set your goals higher at a reachable height with one baby step of productive marketing and service enhancements after another. Baby steps require a plan. Plans are gathered by asking other successful doctors what they are doing or finding resources that will tweak you along the way. If you need a visual aid, I have some books available one titles Workshop Workbook and another titles Chiropractic Marketing and Public Relations. Each are $30 can be found on my webstore, along with my Powerpoint presentations which will give you a head start. But taking a step by step approach making this a better year than last is the way to go. The economy may be dipping a bit but it should not affect you if you have financial plans in place and offer patients a valuable purpose to receive the great care you offer. Make plans to attend seminars such as Parker and others and don't forget Foot Leveler seminars that are across the country and offer 12 hours of CE programs. They can be reached at 1-800-553-4860 So, make it happen one baby step at a time Have a Great Day Dr. M Postings: Dr. Joel E.
