It’s that time of year again, (well at least for some of us) where it’s time for license renewal.

I have done quite a bit of sales training over the years and one of my absolute favorite sales guys is Jordan Belfort. I will be the first to say, JB is a unique individual.

Depending on if you are a movie buff or how much you remember news stories it’s possible JB’s name might ring a bell for a different reason. His story was...

Payroll, rent, advertising, taxes, customer fulfillment, patient complaints and employee drama just to name a few…but what happens if you have a rockstar employee or associate?

Top 10 Chiropractic Jokes and Quotes

Oct 12, 2019

I think for many, many years chiropractic was the butt of a lot of jokes. I even remember a couple TV shows where the chiropractor was the dumb one because he wasn’t smart enough to be a “real” doctor. Or the other side is, we are depicted as super neurotic, health nuts who take supplements by the handful (oh no I do, do that lol). Hey why not have a little fun with our profession and sometimes kooky...

How to deal with a bad review on Social Media

Sep 28, 2019

Bad reviews on social media, talk about a sticky situation. For a business, good reviews are like gold. Customers are actively looking at Facebook, Instagram, Google, etc to tell them if a business is worth their time, energy and money.

Unless you are the only employee in your business, you will eventually run into this issue. There are times in a business when it would be very difficult to not be excited. Grand openings, appreciation parties, killer sales months, hitting new landmarks within the company, etc. all help to keep employees soaring high. But what happens when there is a slow month? What about three slow months in a row? All...

True Cost of Hiring the Wrong Person

Jun 22, 2019

As I continue to evolve as a business owner, I have said on multiple occasions I wish I was a profiler for the FBI. If you don’t know what a profiler does, they are really good at reading all the little cues someone gives during interactions. All the signs, eye blinking, story telling that someone gives are tell-tale signs. The profiler is really good at assessing their psychological, mental and emotional states of the person sitting in...

Ways to Improve your Chiropractic Clinic Security

Jun 13, 2019

As massive corporations continue to grow, it’s sometimes hard to imagine that a small, local business would have the same threats. In my mind, if I’m going to rob a business wouldn’t I want to target the ones with all the money? I’m not saying small business owners aren’t successful but it’s usually at a different level than a major multi-million/billion dollar enterprise. I did some...
