Create a Clear Picture of your Practice. Brian
Kim (www.briankim.net)
says: If you don't have a crystal clear picture in your
mind of what you want, you won't even realize the potential
of the many "puzzle pieces" lying around you in your life
that you can use to put together to help create
that picture. Only when that picture is clear in your mind
do you activate your "eyes" and begin to see the potential
of all the seemingly unrelated puzzle pieces in your life
and see how they can all fit together as well as see what
"pieces" you're missing in order for you to complete the
picture. Michael Gerber echoes this by saying: Create a
picture in your mind of the practice you want.
TOP STORY: Never Pass Up an Opportunity. I
recently talked with a new DC who is in the position to buy
a practice, but she had to do it quickly, within just a
couple of days. She was ready, because:
§
Her business plan was prepared (in general,
not the specifics of this business)
§
Her credit rating was impeccable
§
She had established a relationship with a bank
§
She had lined up a CPA and, most important, an
attorney.
The bank gave her a letter telling the seller that she
was approved for the loan. If you found the perfect
practice to buy and you had to act quickly, would you be
ready? Think about it.
Presenting your Business Plan. I talked with a
doctor who did a great presentation of his business plan
using PowerPoint. Here is a link to some tips for
presentations:

(It is for class presentations, but it should work for
anyone.)
New Schedule for Practice Startup Success. This
newsletter is going to a bi-weekly schedule (that’s every
other week). It’s not that I don’t love you guys. It’s
just that I’ve become very busy with my blogging and other
freelance writing work. If something comes up that I can’t
wait to tell you, I will send an extra newsletter.
