The Reciprocal Referrals Approach - a topic we explore in The Art of Inspiring Referrals Workshop.

Picture this: you are a fantastic chiropractor, new to the area, and yet people just don’t yet know that you exist. You already know that your practice will be wildly successful (because you invested in coaching from Craig Foote from the very beginning. 😉)

So, acting as if this is the reality, you will need to know who the best people in the area are to work with.

These then slowly evolve to that of pictures that reassemble a poop emoticon💩- indicating you’d better pull your finger out!

Perhaps you’ve had an acute patient come in that required more time that was allocated. Perhaps you’re tired from having a sick child at home and you’ve lost sleep. Perhaps you just haven’t got your head in the game! Either way do not apologise for running late! Please let me explain.

Saying “I’m sorry” makes it about you feeling better and not them! .. Saying “I’m sorry” says that what you have been doing is of little importance you have wasted both your time and theirs. Saying “I’m sorry” means that one day- should they ever be acute- you will also waste peoples time while working with them.
