Do you love your clients and what you do but wish you made
more money doing it? For those in the healing professions, it can
be a common challenge to build a practice and make a comfortable
living.
This class is designed to give you the tools that can make a difference
between surviving and thriving. It is often a challenge to combine
taking care of our clients and still managing the day to day of
the business. Daily decisions about keeping clients, getting new
clients, marketing, pricing can all seem overwhelming and challenging.
These two day give you tools that make these and other decisions
easier and provide productive results.
The first day covers tools to use that make day to day decisions
easier and your choices more successful. Through hands on activities
and group discussion, you will find your guidance tools, your decision
making criteria and have opportunities to get feedback from peers
on everyday decisions. Together, we will explore your vision and
values, mission and goals and how to use those tools to make effective
decisions about marketing, advertising and pricing. We will explore
different avenues of marketing that are simple, effective and fun,
and cost little money. By the end of the class, you will leave a
whole now set of tools and some specific actions you can take immediately
that will impact the income of your business.
The second day is designed to remove misconceptions about networking
as a marketing tool. You will discover easy networking tools and
opportunities, including the use of social media. Even if you are
not a "social" person or not a "tekkie", this
class will offer you opportunities to think creatively about your
business and how to connect with others that will happily support
your business.
This is a fun, interactive class that gives you real tools you can
use immediately.
Combine both classes and you are on your way to an improved income
and more fun in your practice.
