In This PodcastSome money questions that most therapists are asking and need to answer include:
People are sensing that there’s a shift happening … we don’t know if there’s going to be a recession or … if there’s going to be a major downturn in the economy, but we’ve had several years that were thriving.
Joe SanokIn general, most therapists have questions and queries about getting a handle on their numbers, what they mean, and how to work well with them.
An increase in marketing investmentTherapists and practice owners are currently putting more money into marketing efforts than they have in the past.
We’re finding that a lot of the practices that are thriving right now, in an uncertain financial environment, are the ones that are saying, “We’re going to intentionally put some money and some staff time into leveling up faster”.
Joe SanokWhat is a step outside of the box of what the average counselors are doing that you can take to set yourself apart in the best way possible?
There’s a tough hiring environmentThe average job posting for a therapist used to garner multiple requests. Nowadays, it’s much fewer.
This could be because fewer therapists are looking for work, and it could be because many practices are settled in the number of clinicians that they already have.
[Recognize] that it’s a difficult hiring environment [right now] so think about what you can differentiate within your group practice that’s beyond pay. Joe SanokWhat are the unique selling points that potential employees can enjoy through working for you, and within your business?
How can you make yourself stand out and attract your best-fit employees, beyond just offering more money?
The little things go a long way when it comes to retaining staff.
Awareness and evaluation of lifestyleAnother remnant of the pandemic is that most people have become more attuned to how they currently live.
They think about how they want to improve themselves and create a better lifestyle for mental, emotional, and physical health.
Because of that, on a personal [aspect], that’s carried over into the business world where we’re seeing a lot of clinicians and group practice owners asking the questions … on burnout prevention.
Joe SanokPeople are more inspired nowadays to integrate healthier boundaries into their working lifestyle and schedules, both for themselves and for the benefit of their clinicians too.
How to level up beyond standard practiceMany clinicians are considering how they can develop their practice so that it is not wholly dependent on them, or solely on accumulated clinical hours in sessions, to earn an income.
A lot of group practice owners are saying, “I want to get my practice … [to a place] where it’s not dependent on me to be the primary income.”
Joe SanokHow can practice owners slowly remove themselves from direct clinical hours and expand their role as the CEO, and level up themselves and their practice as a result?
