Welcome to the Pursuing Private Practice Blog! We’re so happy to have you here.
The history of Pursuing Private Practice
Pursuing Private Practice (PPP) has been such a journey for me, filled with ups and downs. It’s ironic that PPP’s business path is very similar to the path to success I took with my private practice path! I started Eat With Knowledge in the summer of 2011, and it took me awhile to find my way. Fast forward to now, and I have a full practice with great clients that energize and inspire me, and every day I LOVE what I do.
I decided to write a book about private practice to help professionals just like YOU! Many people have asked me “What can I do to start and grow a business?” Dietitians, therapists, and counseling professionals don’t have an automatic business school built into their professional training. By writing the books on private practice, I could deliver this information in a fun, informative way.
So, what now?
Many healthcare professionals have bought my books and have used the information there to turn their dreams into a reality. But they want more. So now, I finally have more to give! Stay tuned. We’re working on an e-course to help you go from scratch to being a SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS OWNER in just 10 (or so) lessons on private practice. And if you own a private practice now, you can make yours BETTER with information we’ll be providing. Until the e-course is available, we’re going to use this space to start your education, so you can become a better, smarter business owner. You can expect blog posts on these topics:
- How to legally form your business and make the boring stuff more exciting
- How to deal with all of the tedious registrations you need with website links to get them fast!
- How to get your finances organized
- How to get your business off of a piece of paper and into a beautiful office space
- How to develop the policies, forms, and handouts you’ll need for your clients
- How to find your ideal client, and determine which ones to refer to others (thus getting more of the clients you want to work with)
- How to network with others—and a warning: it’s much more than just exchanging business cards.
- How to get clients to come back for more appointments and buy more services
- How to use social media to grow your business
- How to find work/life balance (but spoiler alert: it will always be a balancing act).
This journey is truly a journey, and no one is perfect. But don’t let fear stop you from reaching your dreams. You’ve got this! With our support, you’ll be guided to a successful private practice!
