Building a Team of Consultants and Advisors is the New Method to Become Successful in the Practice According to Chhoda
Denville, NJ (PRWEB) September 02, 2013 -- “To build a successful physical therapy business and avoid potential problems, it’s crucial that practitioners surround themselves with a team of consultants and advisors that can offer advice and strategies based from experience and expertise. Although therapists are knowledgeable on a wide range of topics, they can’t be experts in every field,” said Chhoda.
He added that the success of any practice is dependent upon superior marketing tools, techniques, strategies and trends within the marketplace. The advice of specialists and experts in a variety of fields will help therapists anticipate trends, know when to expand their services, create a business plan, and evaluate available options for the future. A team of consultants and advisors can assist practice owners with the following:
• Evaluating and assembling data;
• Correlate patient numbers and referrals;
• Deliver insight into past, present and future physical therapy marketing campaigns;
• Suggest networking options and new marketing outlets;
• Create exit strategies for retirement or selling the practice;
• Provide information on the local economic climate and banking conditions.
According to Chhoda, clinics with limited funds and just starting out do not need to break the budget by hiring pricey PR and marketing firms. Valuable resources and contacts can be found in local foundations and organizations, and by collaborating with other professionals. Business associations, professional organizations and the chamber of commerce all work to promote their members.
The potential of family, friends, colleagues and co-workers shouldn’t be discounted. The expertise, skills and knowledge of those sources, whether for physical therapy management, documentation, billing and marketing purposes, can be a wellspring of helpful information, and one that’s often overlooked. Leveraging those assets for the benefit of the business can yield untold opportunities.
Above tip for financial success is the result of extensive analysis that encompasses conducting business in the new economy. Although it’s possible to locate advisors and consultants locally, it’s also important to realize those resources can often manifest in unlikely places. Chhoda said that for the financial health of the clinic, practitioners should always remain open to any possibility and options that will benefit the business for years to come.
