In a typical Chiropractic office there is a team of people helping you keep in touch with yours patients.

Last weekend I had the honor to present at Dr. Shawn Dill's famous coaching program called "That Something" about the Wellness Revolution that is occurring right now.

His journey through the HISTORY sent ...

During this time there is an immeasurable loss of productivity, things being brushed under ...

On Thursday I had the huge honor of speaking at the Spring for Life conference at Life West Chiropractic College. Many of you have written me asking me to explain the comment I made about being able to measure everything that happens in my offices through numbers. I am a huge fan of metrics.

One of my favorite questions to ask a prospective associate is where they see themselves in 3-5 years. I usually qualify he answer i am looking for by asking them to expand on their vision of what their practice looks like.
