On this episode of Turbo Charged MD we discuss a simple yet overlooked tool to attract new patients and retain your current patients to you practice... BE NICE! We will discuss:

1. One of the most underrated skills in business right now is being nice. Nice sells.
2. What makes you most valuable is your ability to cooperate and connect with others.
3. If you can handle people’s diversity — people of a different age, different personalities, or educational backgrounds, for example — and you can handle the conflict that comes with that, you will be the highest paid, most valuable employee in the company and your patients will appreciate it.
4. People hate dealing with people who are jerks. It’s always easier to be nice than to be a jerk. Don’t be a jerk!
5. Empathize with others. You never know what is going on in their life or even their day.
6. Most people have a negative perception of the "doctor's office". Use that to your advantage and "kill them" with kindness.

1. Defining a lead. (web, phone or referral)
2. Having a solid game plan.
3. Training your team for success.
4. Being a great relationship builder. 
5. Handling the phones with authority.
6. Following up for success. 
7. Holding your team accountable for production.

On this episode of Turbo Charged MD we will discuss our breakthrough Lead Generation program, The Turbo Lead Generator. Lead generation is the crux of fueling any private pay medical practice revenues. There are lots of "expert" lead generation companies who fall short on driving highly responsive, "qualified" leads. There is a lot of skill required in matching potential patients with medical specialists who serve their local community. 

 A great lead generation program finds granular details about prospects demographics, buyer persona, buying habits and intent to invest in the desired treatment and service. This is not about quantity, rather a matter of quality that when achieved can be ramped up for quantity equaling the perfect storm of revenue streams. 

What sets the Turbo Lead Generator Program apart from other lead gen programs? 

1. Specifically designed for Private Pay Medical Practices.
2. Mutli-dimensional. Can generate high quality prospects for any treatment, program and service.
3. Campaigns are customizable and are put through extensive A/B testing prior to deployment.  
4. The cost per lead is only $35! You only pay for the leads that are generated. High ROI! 
5. Multi- faceted program utilizing highly responsive algorithms and granular, detailed buyer data.
6. Landing page driven so prospects cannot auto-fill their inquiries (better engagement). 
7. Can be targeted locally, regionally, or nationally. 
8. No contracts or long-term commitments.

On this episode of Turbo Charged MD, Rich Force, CEO of Medical Marketing Solutions interviews Dr. Kim Crawford, Quadruple Board Certified Physician in Internal, Sports, Preventative and Anti-Aging Medicine, on the opportunity to derive addtional practice revenue with the Pharmanex BioPhotonic Scanner Program. In our interview, Dr. Crawford addresses the following:

How does raman spectroscopy work/how accurate is this scanner?

Raman spectroscopy uses a focused beam of visible green light, directed into the palm of the hand, where carotenoids layer out. Those carotenoids rotate the green light into blue light which is then calculated (quantified) by the scanner. This non-invasive measurement is more accurate than a blood test.

How much does a scan cost the patient?

You can decide what you want to charge. Most practices charge $20 per scan.

How much do the supplements cost?

WE have packages from as little as $30/month to the premium package of $300/month. The average Functional practice patient tends to be higher end.

Does this involve my staff?

Usually it involves the receptionist, nurse and office manager, yes. In small concierge practices where the doctor does his/her own scanning; it can just be "you."

Who trains my staff?

I will send a downloadable training package that includes the instructional videos I have produced, documents, flow charts, and everything you need to get your staff started. I will then personally get on the phone with your staff to review procedures, word tracking, as well as  website use and so on.

I have been approached by other reps-why should I do this with you?

We're fun!. We don't charge for training; unlike the other folks trying to do this program. My medical expertise may also be of value to you. Lastly, my training program is a copyrighted program my partner and I created, which is not available to others. It has been shown to significantly increase office revenue production compared to the voice coaching only method employed by others.

What kind of money are we talking about?

If you do 4 scans per day, 5 days per week, and 2 of the 4 patients say "yes" to going on supplements, it will take you 10 weeks to place 100 patients on supplements; with an average Functional medicine practice price of $150/month. That will then yield you $6000 per month revenue; and that doesn't even include scan fees!

I feel funny about selling something to patients-why is this different?

National statistics show that 75% of your patients have tried a MVI sometime during the past year. Right now, due to COVID, sales are even higher, as patients try to boost their immune systems. The scanner allows you to measure. The supplements are $-back guaranteed by the company. Why should large companies profit from selling poor quality supplements when you are the one caring for your patients, not them?

Is my ED a condition in its own right, to be treated with PDE5 inhibitors and left at that, or is it a sign that I may have other problems that need attention, extending to therapies other than or in addition to Viagra? If ED is just another discomfiting aspect of normal aging, is it impossible for my ED to regress? Or will I need to take PDE5 Inhibitors for the rest of my life?

On this episode of Turbo Charged MD, we discuss how to capture market share from your competitors during the Corona Virus Economy. 

1. Some private pay medical practices  are currently open and some are not as we work in the current Corona Virus economy. We know that we face some short term challenges as we readjust our short and long term thoughts and strategies.
2. Work diligently woth your marketing company to fortify your SEO, keep your Social Media current .
3. SERP monitoring is extremely important: Search Engine Results Pages (SERP) are the pages displayed by search engines in response to a query by a user. The main component of the SERP is the listing of results that are returned by the search engine in response to a keyword query).
4. Look at websites of your top 3-5 competitors (in your immediate locale) if you know (or have good reason to believe) the competition has closed or stopped marketing and potentially has stopped their SEO. 
5. Your marketing company should put  them (competition) on SERP monitoring to confirm they are dropping and for treatments they confirmed are dropping they should focus the short term SEO so that Google's algorithm will trade those positions.  When the competition opens their doors, soon or if at all, they will have lost those positions whereas you now have them, and the visibility on search and traffic that comes with it.
6. Commit 5-6% of your Gross Revenues to marketing in the current climate.
7. Record Videos: Embed the video in a blog post and include the transcript.
8. SEO and online marketing are avenues to build connection and trust with people and how you do that during challenging times matters just as much as when you’re ready to serve or sell them directly.

If you do not have a digital strategy to navigate you through these turbulent times, please contact us for a free marketing and consulting session.

On this episode of Turbo Charged MD, we discuss suggested small investments and adjustments you can make in your medical practice as many private pay practices are experiencing a slow down due to Covid-19.

Your phones are not ringing like they usually do, patients are cancelling appointments and new prospects are not calling or submitting leads. What do you do? Don't panic! We are a few months into this pandemic and hopefully getting closer to the end or at least to a point where we can resume business back to "as normal as possible".  You have a few choices:

A: Panic and make irrational decisions.

B: Do nothing.

C: Be proactive and take the time you normally wouldn't have to re-evaluate the "business side" of your practice and strategize as to how to fine tune areas you may have been lacking in and be prepared to come out leaner and meaner.

Today we will talk about Option "C", be PROACTIVE.  We will cover the following topics:

1: Evaluate your overall business plan.  Look back at the data from the last year on each treatment you are offering. What are you most effective and profitable treatments and are there specific treatments that you are investing in that maybe it is time to stop offering them. Look at your ROI. Is your marketing output and patient demand worth keeping those specfic treatments or is it time to pause or eliminate them all together?

2: Take a good look at your Website. Is it truly a good representation of your physical practice or do you need to make some changes both aesthetically and in functionality to truly represent your practice.  Is it easy to navigate, easy to understand, clearly educate your current patients, have call to action and are you easy to contact?

3: Look at your Marketing Budget: Have you made the small investment into your Technical SEO or put all of your eggs in the Paid Ad bucket. Technical SEO when done correctly helps you organically rank on the search engines (long term play) vs. Paid Ads (short term hits). Depending on your practice and the parameters of your local area that you are trying to cover, your SEO investment which SHOULD include ALL of your SOCIAL MEDIA management, website management and maintenance, reputation management, etc, should be no more that $595-$995 per month. 

4: Training: This is a great time to put together an employee training program. Put strategies into place as to how you want the practice run and clearly define everyone's roll.  Specifically, concentrate on your Sales Training including, answering the phones correctly, handling web leads, follow up and converting leads into patients.

5: Social Media Presence: Check out your Social Media platforms and make sure they are up to date with relevant content and messaging. 

6: Evaluate your vendor relationships. Are you happy with your marketing company, suppliers, phone systems, software, etc.

7: Email Database: This is a great time to organize your email database or make plans to start an email database. Separate your database into Patients, Past Patients and Prospects. Select a platform to send your emails and come up with a plan as to what messaging you would like to communicate now and what your plan will be going forward.

Medical Marketing Solutions is currently offering a Free Consultation for all Private Pay Medical Practices. We will help you with your planning and future strategies and implementation to help stabilize and help re-kick start your business in the very near future.

On this episode of Turbo Charged MD we will discuss how follow up or lack there of can make or break your business: Topics covered:

80% of sales require at least five follow-up calls before the deal reaches “Closed Won” status. Since 44% of salespeople give up after one follow-up, there really are a lot of lost opportunities for closed deals!

Following up after an initial call is very important for getting business done. Most salespeople aren’t aware as to just how important it really is! Besides the obvious, here are the main reasons for making follow-up sales calls with all prospects moving forward.

Instead of just counting on promises made during an initial meeting, a follow-up call helps a salesperson know where he or she stands in a current deal. It also helps cement your connection with a prospect and helps to develop a relationship.

Even if the deal appears to be closed, a follow-up call shows the prospect that a salesperson is interested in building a long-term relationship and isn’t only interested in short-term sales (and commission). This kind of good will ensures not only a happy customer but one who will recommend you to friends and colleagues!

Part of a salesperson’s job is to reinforce a prospect’s decision about making a purchase. This process starts during the first conversation, where a salesperson walks a prospect through the reasons why a purchase is worth it. But encouragement should follow in subsequent follow-up calls, which can help to build trust. Trust in a product may turn into loyalty towards the whole brand, and that can lead to more purchases down the road.

Sometimes, a prospect has issues that get overlooked during the initial sales process. This can result in returns or cancellations, which spell disaster for every salesperson. By proactively working to address issues during the follow-up process, salespeople can reduce the possibility of these situations.

Make sure to encourage your prospect to ask questions, and answer all queries before ending the conversation. Besides securing the sale, you’re also letting the customer know that your organization provides excellent customer support, no matter the situation.

The most important goal of a follow-up call is to secure a sale. Based on the statistics shared at the beginning of this article, putting forth the effort to complete five follow-up calls will bring a salesperson 80% more sales on average than less total attempts per prospect.

Besides additional sales, a good relationship and trust gained from follow-up calls you’ve made will encourage consumers to purchase from you again. And if you’ve done a really good job with follow-up calls—they may just refer some new business your way.

On this Episode of Turbo Charged MD we will discuss how to overcome objections. Topics include:

Overcoming Objections

1: Listen Fully to the Objection

· Resist temptation to jump right in and respond immediately.

· Reacting too quickly = you risk making assumptions about the objection.

· Take the time to listen to the objection fully.

· Train yourself to ignore negative emotions.

· Listen to fully understand the buyer's concerns without bias or anticipation.

· Allow body language and verbal confirmations to communicate intent listening.

2. Understand the Objection Completely

· Many objections hide underlying issues the buyer can't or isn't ready to articulate.

· Often the true issue isn't what the buyer first tells you.

· Your job is to get to the heart of the objection.

· Ask permission from the buyer to understand and explore the issue.

· Restate the concern as you understand it.

3. Respond Properly

· After you've uncovered all objections, address the most important objection first.

· Once you work through the greatest barrier, other concerns may no longer matter.

· Do your best to resolve their issue right away increases chance of moving sale forward.

· If you need more information to resolve concern, you may have to look something up don't

wing it.

4. Confirm You've Satisfied the Objection

· Check if you've satisfied all their concerns (just because they nodded doesn't mean they agree).

· Ask if the buyer is happy with your solution.

· Some objections require a process to overcome, not just a quick answer.

· If the client isn't ready, don't try to force a commitment.

· Do not accept a lukewarm "yes" for an answer.

· Don't lose sight of your goal. Use steps above (Listen, Understand, Respond and Confirm).

· This is a hot topic. This is their major pain point. If a prospect tells you that their challenge is having a major influence on their current situation and will affect their future, use your practice solutions as a remedy to get them back to optimal wellness and a much healthier relationship.

Welcome to Episode 2 of Season #2 of Turbo Charged MD.  One of the biggest challenges for any medical practice that does consulations for prospects, is getting your prospects to show up. You speak to them on the phone, you confirm the appointment and you still seem to have high number of no shows. 

In this episode we will discuss the 7 key components to setting up consultations that are both qulaified and show up for their appointment. Topics include:

1: Don’t set an appointment with just anyone: Great salespeople don’t try to set the appointment with just anyone. They only try to set the appointment with the right person.

2: Disqualify the unqualified during discovery: Sometimes, salespeople get so excited when they have a person in front of them who is willing to pick up the phone and talk. But we can’t know if someone is qualified just because they’re willing to get on the phone with us.

3: Your prospects typically meet with salespeople who will do or say anything just to get the sale. This manifests with the salespeople putting lots of pressure of prospects and being salesy in a variety of ways. In order to set the appointment with your ideal prospects, you want to be the complete opposite of this. Give your prospects the opposite of their typical buying experience. The best way to do this is to act not like a salesperson, but like a doctor.

4: Understand the upside: To successfully set the appointment, the prospect has to feel like there will be value in meeting with you. So, put yourself in the shoes of your prospects. They’ve got a million things going on and the last thing they want to do is spend 45 minutes with a salesperson who is wasting their time.

5: “Can I make a recommendation?”: These five simple words are so powerful when it comes to being able to set the appointment with your ideal prospects. I’m giving you some real secret sauce here. The phrase, “Can I make a recommendation?” is really powerful when it comes time to transition into scheduling the appointment in sales.

6: Always schedule a clear next step: Make sure that there is always a clear next step at any point in the sales process—but especially at the beginning. You want there to be a clear scheduled next step where a calendar invite goes out to the prospect—and they accept it.

7: Have a contingency for when they push back: have a contingency in place for when they push back on setting the appointment. Let’s say the prospect says, “I’m really busy this month. Could we maybe get together next month? Shoot me an email in a month and we can set something up.” Reply with your contingency: “I really appreciate your saying this, but having done this for a long time, I know that usually people tell me this because it’s a nice way of saying they’re not really interested in ever getting together. Is that what you see happening here?”

On this final episode of season 1 of Turbo Charged MD, we discuss how to deliver a world class patient experience. Once you have acquired a new patient (transactional), it is now time to give them the WOW factor each and every time they visiti your practice. Topics include:

• Turn your patients into raving fans by delivering a world class experience.
• The more they trust you, the more they will buy from you.
• The more they buy, the more they will refer.
• Creating a tribe of Raving Fans.
• Don’t stop your marketing efforts once you have acquired a patient. New products are easier to introduce to raving fans.
• Train your staff to give the best patient experience.
• Client appreciation event.
• Always go above and beyond.

"The ultimate patient experience is their perception of how you represent your brand at every touchpoint in their dealings with you.
