So much of success can be linked directly linked to what you think about. Dr. John Demartini says "What you think about, you bring about." So much of what we think about is stimulated by the environment we are in and the conversations we are having. The whole reason I set up this blog was to have a constant flow of information that would stimulate constructive successful thinking. This Chiropractic Blog has sparked so many offline discussions ... Read More

There is no doubt that one of the hardest things to do in practice is securing high quality, high traffic screening events. One of the most effective screening tools we use is a health fair which could take months of effort to get set up. A local festival may cost a ton of money, but we get excited about our opportunity to be in front of a high volume of people. Then since we spent a significant ... Read More

The Dream Practice Start Guy Kawasaki is a great mentor of mine. I follow him on Twitter, read his blog and have devoured 8 books he has written. One of my favorite books is "The Art of the Start" and in the video below he points out that the most successful businesses are created around strong meaning rather than to just make money. Watch and listen to this video and make sure your Chiropractic business foundation comes form ... Read More

guest blog by : Dr. Drew Hall On a casual visit to Dr. Kuhn’s office, I got the news……. A legend had passed. After the news, I spent a day reflecting about what that Dr. Weldon Muncy meant to me personally, and what that one man meant to the Blair upper cervical movement. I will start with my personal experiences with the MAN, Dr. Muncy. Dr. Muncy was a man who was driven by a principle, and his actions spoke much louder than ... Read More

Yesterday was certainly one of my most favorite days in practice! After reading that, you are probably thinking that you are going to read a patient testimonial or about some crazy chiropractic miracle, however we saw NO patients yesterday. Every quarter we take an entire day and spend it together developing ourselves and our team. In the morning we usually spend time reviewing our goals and refreshing office procedure skills that need polishing, and in the afternoon we simply go have ... Read More

A couple weeks ago I was completely inspired by the talks of Dr. Andy Roberts and Dr. Shawn Dill at the seminar put on by "That Something" coaching program. The predominant theme that weekend was about the "experience" in your office affects the emotional state of your patients which directly affects the decisions that they make. To piggy back on that weekend I would like to tie in 6 basic human needs we have that people seek out in their experience. ... Read More

In a typical Chiropractic office there is a team of people helping you keep in touch with yours patients. They call them to remind them of appointments, they call when they miss, they schedule and they also have some procedure to stay top of mind or stay in touch so that we don't loose patients through he cracks. You don't have that luxury. I would love to turn you on to a great piece of technology that will help stay top ... Read More

Last weekend I had the honor to present at Dr. Shawn Dill's famous coaching program called "That Something" about the Wellness Revolution that is occurring right now. Dr. Andy Roberts kicked it off with an amazing talk on raising the standard in our offices so that our "experience" rivals that of Disney's. I have since created an experience checklist for my office, Thanks Dr. Roberts! Dr. Thad spoke about the mission of the UCHC along with the need to unite. ... Read More

One of my favorite questions to ask a prospective associate is where they see themselves in 3-5 years. I usually qualify he answer i am looking for by asking them to expand on their vision of what their practice looks like.

And if they were to know how many patients they wanted to ... Read More
