How to Get a Healthy Private Practice Up and Running, Fast | IP 176

Wendy Pitts Reeves Episode 176

Managing a private practice, like any business, means managing growth. And growth always happens in phases. That means, we all start as beginners somehow - right?

I know.

But the start up phase of a private practice can be completely overwhelming. No one taught us how to do this in grad school, and we have a LOT of questions.

  • What do I charge?
  • Should I offer a sliding scale?
  • How will I get paid?
  • Who should I work with?
  • Where will I see them?
  • Do I have to offer evening appointments?
  • How do I get referrals?
  • What do I say when someone asks me what I do?

Whew boy. So. Many. Questions.

(And that’s just for starters!)

Well don’t worry my friend, because I’ve got you covered.

In today’s episode, I’m going to break it all down, so you’ll know what you HAVE to know up front, and what can wait.

In this episode, I’ll share:

  1. Three key decisions you’ll have to make up front, and how getting those in place will make everything else so much easier.
  2. Four new skills it will help to learn in your new role as a business owner.
  3. A handful of specific action steps to take as you figure out the foundation of your practice.

Feeling a little overwhelmed? Let’s fix that.

Let’s get you started, so you can open your doors to new income, and new ways to help others.
