Next time you arrange a team meeting, ask for the “brand standard” answer to the following questions:
• there are plenty of practices in the area – what’s so special about yours?
• tell me about your membership plan and why I should join?
• your prices are higher than others in the area – why should I pay more to see you?
• as a GDP, why should I refer work to you?
If my experience is anything to go by, you’ll be surprised and perhaps a little concerned that:
• the answers are not readily available
• they are not consistent
• they are not effective
A training issue if ever I saw one…
