What Planning For Practice Success for Chiropractors is all about:

My name is Jean Murray and I've been working with small business owners since 1974, helping them start and operate their businesses. Since 1995 I have been specializing in  assisting chiropractic students and graduates who want to start their own practices. I’ve worked with chiropractors from Maine to Australia and from Saskatchewan to Brazil to help them gain the knowledge to act and the confidence to take the steps they need to begin.

My mission is simple:
I want to empower you to start your own practice.

I am setting up a small chiropractic office and using your book for advice. It has been very helpful.

Planning for Practice Success™ has several guiding principles:

  • Philosophy: Planning for Practice Success™ is dedicated to the proposition that anyone can start and successfully operate a health care practice. I believe chiropractic graduates can start their own businesses, with support and knowledge and some old-fashioned hard work. Chiropractors have been starting practices for over 100 years, and there is nothing magical about the process. My mission is to assist chiropractic graduates with the startup of their practices, with information, coaching, and encouragement.
      
  • Practical, Useful Advice – The Planning for Practice Success™ book was written to provide you with specific, useful information to help you make your own decisions as you set up your practice.

I won’t tell you what to do;
I'll provide you with the options
and let you make your own decisions.

 

Thank you for helping to make my dreams come true!

For example, I’ll give you the pros and cons of different legal structures so you can choose the one you feel most comfortable with.

P4PS™ (say “P – four – P – S”) is primarily an educational business, teaching you how to work through the 10,000 decisions you’ll need to make in order to set up your practice. To this end I have free services and information, a book , Jean’s blog, and much more.

In other words, I have just about anything to help you start into practice and which will also fit your budget.

 

I wanted to take a moment to tell you how useful I’m finding your information.

Now that I am about to go to a bank and the SBA to get funding to buy into a partnership, BOY am I happy I have your information to refer to.

What P4PS is NOT – P4PS is NOT a practice management organization. I offer specific products and services that you may choose to use for practice startup and operations. I don’t require you to sign long-term contracts. I don’t TELL you how to start your practice.
 

  • Based on Experience – Just like any complex decision for which you have no experience (buying a home, buying your first car), you need advisors to help you through the process. I DO have the experience, and have helped many people start businesses. The P4PS tools are not theoretical or hypothetical; they are based on real experience.

    Starting a business is the same for everyone, including chiropractic practices. There are many books out there about starting a business. What makes our products and services so useful to YOU is that they are specifically designed for chiropractors starting into practice. Everything you need to start into practice is included. If it works and if it’s important to chiropractic practice, it’s included.
