he let slip one of THE main reasons (in his Dad\u2019s opinion!) why people are held back from living the life they truly want.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s this type of thinking:<\/p>\n<p>===<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m too YOUNG to do that!\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Very quickly becoming:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m too OLD to do that!\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>===<\/p>\n<p>And what happens is the person saying it NEVER actually notices the day they made the switch (from \u201cyoung\u201d to \u201cold\u201d being the excuse!).<\/p>\n<p>And you know what\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The more I listened to him, the more it made sense of a lot of what I hear from people who are put off from investing in their health with something like &#8220;physical therapy&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>See, one of THE biggest reasons people chose NOT to do something about their achey back or knee, is that they think they\u2019re \u201ctoo old\u201d &#8211; and that it just wont be worth investing in it!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s as if they think:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m 65, it\u2019s too late for me, what\u2019s the point of getting it sorted now, there\u2019s no way I can justify spending money children\u2019s inheritance money on pt &#8211; I\u2019ll just live with it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And you know that problem with this is?<\/p>\n<p>These people are YOUR patients.<\/p>\n<p>These are the people with back and knee pain who should be self-referring to you via direct access.<\/p>\n<p>But they\u2019re not.<\/p>\n<p>They are held back by self-limiting beliefs that are KILLING the number of referrals you should be getting.<\/p>\n<p>And you know what?\u2026<\/p>\n<p>I suspect a lot of PT clinic owner\u2019s are back by the same self limiting beliefs, too.<\/p>\n<p>Not \u201cage\u201d ones&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>But, a lack of belief in their \u201cmarketing abilities\u201d, or to be more precise, their lack of understanding of HOW marketing actually works (and not wanting to get the decision wrong).<\/p>\n<p>So what do they do?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nothing&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Except get more and more frustrated by their lack of progress &#8211; and just HOPE that those doctor referrals don\u2019t continue to dry up, a POPTS doesn\u2019t set up across the street, or the chiropractors ease down their adverts.<\/p>\n<p>Which is WHY one of the best places for you to start to find those referrals from direct access you want, is with talking to someone who will &#8220;walk you through&#8221; how marketing ACTUALLY works<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; AND &#8211;<\/p>\n<p>How something like direct response marketing (\u201cold school\u201d marketing) might work in YOUR pt clinic BEFORE you have to commit to running ads, spending money on a website, buying up space in magazines, or sending out postcards!<\/p>\n<p>That way you\u2019ll be in a better position to make a more informed decision, a better one, and a more confident one!<\/p>\n<p>Do you think some advice like that wold help you?<\/p>\n<p>If so, get your free strategy call with me here:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ptprofitacademy.com\/strategy\">www.ptprofitacademy.com\/strategy &gt;&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>On the call you can ask as many questions as you want about \u201cmarketing\u201d &#8230;and discover what COULD possibly be done to help you get more new patients.<\/p>\n<p>After that, take all the time you need to digest what I say and decide for your self if you like the sound of what I suggest you do next.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the form again:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ptprofitacademy.com\/strategy\">www.ptprofitacademy.com\/strategy &gt;&gt;&gt;
