An opportunity

Looks like I won’t be going very far today.

If your surgery day falls apart because of the weather and cancellations, use the opportunity to call a team meeting.

Agenda items:

  • what do you like best about working here?
  • what do you like least about working here?
  • what would you most like to change?
  • what are the best ideas to get new patients in 2010?
  • what are the best ideas to do more business with existing patients in 2010?

And for the clinicians who are selling private treatment:

  • who are your 20 best new business opportunities at the moment?
  • who are your 20 best centres of influence at the moment?
  • what are your top 10 self-marketing activities in the next 90 days?

Don’t sit there complaining about the weather.

Use the chance to do some future-profit planning.
