From: Dr. Margolies .. 7-23-04 www.chirosmart.net Note: I created a new patient educational product this week. I wrote a script introducing my office and chiropractic to new patients. Included in the script are bios about myself and staff, my thoughts about chiropractic, importance for the patient to follow their schedule of care, specific products and services available and a number of referral concepts. We voice this onto a CD and now have our new patients listen to it while on our Spinalator with our individual CD players. It has worked extremely well and has generated interest in our complimentary referral evaluation cards. If you are interested in such a product, individually written and recorded for you and your office visit my webpage (www.chirosmart.net) and order it by clicking the banner "Chirosmart On-Line Store." Scroll down to the CD button. Cost for the script creation, recording and the CD is $75. If it generates one referral it is worth its weight in gold. Coming soon will be CD's with music intertwined with specific topics that specifically interest you. Length of the new patient CD is 10-15 minutes. It takes time to develop for you but the end result is an easy method of patient education and orientation to your individual office. Sorry, I cannot send my script to you without your purchase, but I've given you the idea and that's my sharing for free. Postings this week: Practice For Sale in Pennsylvania ..

Chiropractic Images How many times have you tried to illustrate a chiropractic point by pointing to thin air? Itžs hard to visualize an object or a thought without images to look at. Chiropractic vendors have various diagnostic and poster images illustrating the highlights of a patientžs test results or specific chiropractic concepts placed on wall charts, pamphlets and posters. If you visit my webpage and look under weblinks you'll find a number of companies listed under "Educational and Promotional Material." Furthermore, my homepage has banners linking two great educational companies making patient awareness much easier. They are Visual Odyssey and PosturePro. Visual Odyssey tells the chiropractic story using wonderful graphics and scripts. Using your computer, patients now have an easy visualization of the chiropractic story, biomechanics and understand the nature of chiropractic care and the importance of the adjustment. Visual Odyssey also has a child's program allowing them to interact with the computer, learning the basic ideas of proper posture and health. This also includes interactive chiropractic oriented games. Chiropractic care could not be illustrated any better or easier. PosturePro (www.posturepro.com) is a handy software program outlining the postural stress areas of your patients or people at screenings using a digital camera. Besides outlining their present condition it also predicts and illustrates future spinal stress and the effects if not handled with proper chiropractic care. PosturePro has many extra features including exercises, written instructions and a running visual program that outlines the progression of spinal wear and tear and the consequences of poor posture and continued spinal stress. Included in this great program is the ability to forecast the amount of spinal stress placed on a child carrying an improperly balanced book bag. This huge problem is one that chiropractors should and can address. The image of the average child with a book bag loaded with heavy items placed haphazardly on their back will be devastating in the long run. This is the perfect time of year to point this out to your parent patients and have their children checked and under conservative chiropractic care. There are a number of back pack companies supporting the chiropractic profession. One that comes to mind is Airpacks (www.airpacks.com). They have displays and marketing tools for us. Along with PosturePro illustrating this, it opens an entire referral resource since the concept of a proper balanced book bag is common sense. Digital display of their child and their friends easily set in motion a keen interest in both immediate solutions and hopefully proactive chiropractic care. There are a number of other items that are used to illustrate our concepts and visualize to the patient their need to follow care schedules and refer their family and friends. SEMG units are also very illustrative. For screenings, in my opinion, they lack the individual touch. For example, we did a screening recently using Posture Pro. Simply using a Dell Laptop and a digital camera people were happily waiting to see themselves on the screen and have a quick analysis to only later come to our office for a further report and chiropractic evaluation. On the other side of screening facility was another chiropractor using a SEMG. There was no comparison of the interest level between the two screenings. People were attracted to seeing themselves on the screen and the validity of the findings were compelling using PosturePro. Image and visualization in our profession is everything. Pointing in the air and trying to get your point across is becoming pointless. Fortunately, we have many vendors that support our need to get the message out. I illustrated two because their webpages are linked to mine but there are many others helping you market the program so the end result will be interested people and new patients. Oh, don't forget my patient educational CD .. this is internal visualization while relaxing. Every new patient should be introduced to the nuances of chiropractic care, their responsibilities and your specific office. Try to create and make your own but if you need the help, our price is reasonable and if used correctly will pay for itself in no time.

A simple website of 5 pages will cost you $1000 and you will not likely have control over making any changes to it. I build websites for the fraction of the cost and you get so much more. I will also put you in control so you can make updates to the pages yourself when you need to. The cost is $399 and you will look awesome. Email me for details and sample sites.
