The 3 best questions to ask with reactivations

The 3 best questions to ask with reactivations

People do what they do because they believe what they believe. The most common belief that causes people to stop having care is that 'you see a chiropractor when you have pain'. When people come back in the return of their symptoms is an opportunity to help them see the value of a different belief system. But for them to be able to see it you have to ask the right questions.

In this episode Martin maps out the three best questions to use with reactivations and exactly how to use them in your practice.

Growing your practice in 2023 is very different from how it was 5, 10, or 20 years ago. the problem is that many of the practice growth coaches, gurus, and experts started their practice 'back then' and so the lessons they learned may not be optimal for today's environment.

Creating a care plan that will help people get the best results is critical to your clinical success and critical to getting great results.

How to help people stay on track when they "need to call" for their next appointment.

Retention is based on 2 things:

  1. Communicating the unique value your care has for each person.
  2. Creating and maintaining connection.

Our clients are just like you - sometimes they stop doing things because they just lost momentum rather than choosing that they no longer want to do it.

In today's episode, Martin explains why pre-booking is key to maintaining momentum and what to do when people's busy lives get in the way.

How to do the first 2 visits for people with long-term problems

When people have long-term problems you need a more advanced skill set to be able to present chiropractic in a way that they are likely to follow through with care. You see when people have long-term problems it has more of an emotional impact that can make it harder for them to see the value of your care.


In this episode, Martin explains the psychological impact of chronic problems and how to modify your communication to connect and communicate with these people.

Using science to help you communicate chiropractic
May 17, 202321:45
Metaphors to help you communicate chiropractic

Metaphors to help you communicate chiropractic

Communicating chiropractic can be hard. The big idea of chiropractic is simple - that chiropractic can help your body work better so that you can do ALL the things you have to do and love to do. But connecting people with it is more difficult. It's more difficult because this idea is different from the predominant ideas in our culture. And it's difficult because we have the curse of knowledge where it's hard for us to imagine what it's actually like to not know that!

This is where metaphors, similes, and schemas come in. They are all ways of linking concepts that people already understand to chiropractic.

In this episode, Martin goes through his favourite links to the bid idea of chiropractic!

Exam essentials- the power of doing the right tests! ✅ ✅ ✅

Exam essentials- the power of doing the right tests! ✅ ✅ ✅

If you don't have a great examination it's tough to know if someone who isn't getting symptomatic results just needs more care or they need a different approach. It's tough to know when to change someone's frequency of care. It's tough to really practice in a model that is about function, not pain.

When you do the right tests (and do them right!) it helps the client get the best care, helps your clinical certainty, AND, can help communicate the value of prevention and performance.

In this episode, Martin explores all these areas and gives you templates that you can use to upgrade your exam.

How To Get (and retain) More Ideal People in Your Practice.

How To Get (and retain) More Ideal People in Your Practice.

Have you ever looked at your schedule and seen that "that" person is coming in? You know the one who is always complaining, doesn't value what you want, and is a pain in the arse to deal with?
And conversely, are there people who are a joy to see? They 'get it' and value you and the care you provide.
Would you like to have more of the latter and less of the former? Would you like to learn a simple tweak to your language which will filter the 'right' people in (and the 'wrong' people out)?
On this episode of the podcast, I go over a simple tweak in your language (changing actions to identities) that will act as a beacon to the people you want to see. And even better, using this tweak will increase the chance that your ideal clients (the 'right' people) will follow your recommendations.

The secret to explaining prevention and performance to pain based people

The secret to explaining prevention and performance to pain based people

It can be tricky when you're trying to explain the value of prevention and performance-based care to people who are pain based in their beliefs. If you make them wrong then they're not likely to want to listen to you, but if you don't explain the value of more proactive options it sucks for them (they get worse results) and it sucks for you (you end up with a practice full of pain based people!)

Today I go through how to use bridging as a communication approach for people who you have already seen but haven't explained prevention or performance to. How you can 'renegotiate the agreement' to one that serves them and you.

The value of chiropractic philosophy with Dr Brett Hill

Communicating to people's gator brain AND their judge brain!

Communicating to people's gator brain AND their judge brain!

Have you ever been explaining chiropractic to someone and it just clicks with them?
And then used the same words and approach to someone else and it falls flat?

Effective communication is all about the message that THEY receive.
If you want chiropractic to matter to more people, you need to adapt your communication to them.

In this episode, I show you how to use Daniel Kahnemman's idea of 2 systems of thinking (Zoe Chance calls them the Gator brain and the Judge Brain) to make your message matter more.

Emotion, logic and urgency – the psychology of why people do (or don't) come and see you.

Emotion, logic and urgency – the psychology of why people do (or don't) come and see you.

Do you find it frustrating that there are people who could clearly benefit from your care who don't come in?

Whether it's people who start care and don't continue, people who you meet who have problems you know you could help with who don't come in for care, or people who choose to get care but don't bring their kids in, it can be infuriating!

I have been using a simple framework (emotion, logic, and urgency) to understand why people who do have care do what they do. It also explains what may be missing when they don't.

Grow Your Tribe with Vismai and Martin

Grow Your Tribe with Vismai and Martin

When you create a practice designed for high retention a bunch of things happen. People stay longer so they get better clinical results. Your practice grows without you being too reliant on new people. It's a more fun and less stressful way to practice.

2023 looks like it could be a turbulent year. The recession, the Ukraine situation, and all the other reasons for uncertainty can have an impact on your practice. In uncertain times people are less likely to take on new commitments and expenses. The better your retention the more likely you are to sail through these turbulent times.

On this episode, Vismai Schonfelder joins me and we talk all about the keys to building your retention and the upcoming "Grow Your Tribe" workshop we will be teaching together.

Mastering implementation with Dr Mike Charlton.

Mastering implementation with Dr Mike Charlton.

If you're like me you probably have a whole lot of projects that you have started but have stalled. You've spent time and energy on them but nothing has happened. There's no return on the investment you have made.

Dr Mike Charlton is a master of implementation. Of getting stuff from idea to 'done". 

In this episode, Mike joins me and we talk about how he thinks about implementation and his chiropractic journey.

Implementation is the key to success. It's the action that turns ideas into reality, and it's what separates those who succeed from those who don't. Many people have great ideas, but it's the ones who take action and put in the hard work to see those ideas through to fruition that truly succeed.

The old saying goes, "success is 99% implementation and 1% inspiration." This means that while inspiration and ideas are important, it's the execution of those ideas that really matters. It's easy to get caught up in the excitement of a new idea and to think about all the potential success that it could bring, but if you don't actually take the steps to make it happen, it will never come to fruition.

Have you heard of the psychology of the "clean slate"?

Have you heard of the psychology of the "clean slate"?

The psychology of the 'clean slate' is that there are certain times when you are more likely to be motivated and open to new patterns of behaviour. You can leverage the 'clean slate' perspective that many people have to increase the number of people who you see for preventative and performance care.

In today's episode, I break down a powerful communication approach that will help you make the most impact in 2023.

Shituations! Do you hate it when people turn up late, cancel late, or don't stick to their care plan?

Shituations! Do you hate it when people turn up late, cancel late, or don't stick to their care plan?

When your practice runs smoothly it's good for you (less stress, more enjoyable) and it's good for them (less stress, better results).

When people don't 'follow the rules' it's bad for you AND for them.

So how can you handle it when people don't follow the rules in a gentle but powerful way?

In today's episode Martin maps out a simple framework for handling any shituation where people aren't following your procedures.
