Since \u201cObama Care\u201d it\u2019s not just you who has to work longer to see more patients to make the same pay cheque as before (they&#8217;ve been hit hard too)! <\/p>\n<p>&#8230;So, do they really have TIME to read ALL these newsletters they\u2019re getting from PT\u2019s?<\/p>\n<p>2.) If everyone in your town is &#8220;marketing to them&#8221; with a &#8220;done for you&#8221; newsletter (which all look more or less the same), how are you ever going to get their attention and convince them you&#8217;re the best?<\/p>\n<p>3.) If they\u2019ve got a \u201cspecial friendship\u201d with a corporate hospital or worse still, a Doctor friend who owns a PT practice, which many have, your newsletter is going straight in the shredder!<\/p>\n<p>4.) Unless it\u2019s a newsletter about investment funds, making more money in their sleep, or retirement homes in Florida, most simply don\u2019t care what you send them! <\/p>\n<p>(Something to think about\u2026)<\/p>\n<p>Anyhow\u2026<\/p>\n<p>I happen to think that \u201cnewsletters\u201d to your best patients are great\u2026<\/p>\n<p>But only if done *right*&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;where the \u201ccontent\u201d and \u201coffers\u201d inside are matched perfectly to your patients needs (which only YOU can know best)&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;then \u201cyes\u201d, you can bring back a LOT of patients to your clinic each time you send it.<\/p>\n<p>(But maybe NOT as high as they will promise).<\/p>\n<p>Problem is this\u2026<\/p>\n<p>MOST newsletters I\u2019ve been asked to critique (which are often \u201coutsourced\u201d), have dis-interesting, unimaginative and almost \u201cHORRIFICALLY\u201d boring content that is more of an irritant to patients then a pleasure to read. <\/p>\n<p>(The only plus point is this: they\u2019re nearly all as bad as each other). <\/p>\n<p>So, just incase they duped you too&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>I wanted to help make it more profitable for you then anyone else&#8217;s&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s by showing you a \u201ctrick\u201d that I use to get people to say GREAT things that ARE interesting to OTHER patients and importantly, that you can use as *ammunition* to persuade many more just like them, to want to do business with YOU;-). <\/p>\n<p>And on this training, I show you THREE different ways to turn a profit from it:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ptprofitacademy.com\/Get-More-Patients\" target=\"_blank\">Yes!
