Welcome back to another episode of the Treat Your Business podcast with me, Katie Bell! This week, we’re exploring why being a “Jack of all trades” can be detrimental to your business.
We’ll discuss the importance of focusing on a specific niche in your practice, rather than catering to everyone. I’ll share insights on how specialising in one area can make you the go-to expert, attracting clients seeking your expertise. We’ll also tackle the fear of missing out (FOMO) when narrowing your focus.

Hello everyone! Katie Bell here, and welcome back to another episode of the Treat Your Business podcast. Today, we're diving deep into a topic that's often whispered about but rarely confronted head-on: the importance of money in running a successful clinic. So, buckle up and get ready for some eye-opening insights that might just transform your approach to business!
Episode Summary
In this episode, I explore the critical role of financial health in maintaining and growing a successful clinic. I passionately discuss why money should not be a taboo topic and how it is essential for solving business problems and achieving personal and professional goals. Drawing parallels to the importance of oxygen on an aeroplane, I emphasise that a profitable business allows you to help more people and contribute positively to society. I share real-life examples, industry insights, and practical advice on how to shift from just getting by to thriving in your business. This episode is packed with actionable tips to help you improve your clinic's financial performance and overall success.
Key Takeaways
Money as Oxygen for Your Business: Just like oxygen is vital for survival, money is crucial for a business to thrive. Without it, you can't help others or sustain your operations.Changing the Mindset Around Money: Many in the industry feel uncomfortable talking about money, but it's important to shift this mindset and recognise that being profitable enables you to deliver better services and create a greater impact.Business Skills Over Technical Skills: Having excellent clinical skills is not enough. Successful business owners also need strong business skills. Investing in your business education is crucial for long-term success.The Importance of Marketing: Great products and services are essential, but without effective marketing, potential clients won't know you exist. Focus on building relationships and educating your audience to convert them into loyal customers.Customer Acquisition and Retention: Understand the different stages of the customer journey—prospects, leads, and customers—and tailor your marketing strategies to address each stage effectively.Building a Sustainable Business Model: To achieve financial freedom and personal fulfilment, it's important to create a business model that supports reasonable working hours, continuous growth, and a healthy work-life balance.Upcoming Live Event: Mark your calendars for October 25th for a live, in-person event that promises to be a game-changer for clinic owners. Stay tuned for more details!This episode is a must-listen for

Katie here, welcoming you back to another episode of the Treat Your Business podcast. Today we delve into the importance of visibility for your clinic or studio. Buckle up, because we’re about to embark on a journey to ensure you’re seen not just seven times, but twenty or even thirty times by your potential clients.
Episode Summary
In today’s episode, we explore the critical topic of visibility and why being seen consistently is crucial for the success of your clinic. Drawing from personal experiences and real-world examples, I discuss how frequent visibility impacts client recognition and business growth. We also examine various strategies to enhance your presence, ensuring a constant flow of leads into your business.
Key Takeaways
The Rule of Seven: Traditionally, it’s believed that a person needs to see your brand seven times before they take action. However, due to the increasing volume of information, this number has risen significantly.Consistency is Key: Sporadic efforts do not yield results. Whether it’s social media posts, Google Ads, or collaborations, maintaining a consistent presence is essential.Multi-Layered Marketing: Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Diversify your marketing strategies to include both online and offline efforts.Know Your Audience: Understanding where your ideal clients spend their time helps in targeting your marketing efforts effectively.Track and Adapt: Always track your marketing efforts to identify what works and what doesn’t. Adjust your strategies based on this data.Real-World Examples: Hear about the diverse strategies we’ve implemented at our clinic, from sponsoring local events to collaborating with golf clubs and running online ads.Impactful Messaging: Your marketing message should resonate with the needs and desires of your clients. Avoid jargon and focus on the benefits they seek.Learn from Failures: Don’t be afraid to fail. Each failure is a learning opportunity that brings you closer to success.Remember, being visible in your community and online is not just about putting up a flyer or posting on social media sporadically. It’s about showing up consistently, understanding your audience, and adapting your strategies to stay ahead. Thank you for joining me today, and I look forward to our next episode where we’ll dive deeper into offline marketing strategies.

Summary:
In this episode, we delve deep into the often challenging world of hiring for your clinic. Katie shares invaluable insights into why traditional hiring methods may be setting both you and your team up for failure. She stresses the importance of strategic planning and forward-thinking in the hiring process, emphasising the need to hire for where you want your clinic to be, not just for current needs.
Katie introduces the concept of the "Zog Exercise," a simple yet powerful tool to assess where your time is best spent within your business. By identifying tasks that fall within your "Zone of Genius" versus those in your "Incompetent Zone," you gain clarity on where to focus your efforts and where to delegate.
Furthermore, she highlights the significance of hiring slowly and meticulously, taking candidates through a thorough 12-step hiring process to minimise the risk of bad hires. By aligning hiring decisions with your clinic's long-term goals and diligently assessing your staffing needs, you can set your clinic on a path to sustainable growth and success.
Key Takeaways:
Strategic Planning: Plan your hiring needs based on future projections rather than current demands.Assessing Need: Use financial projections and capacity assessments to determine when and who to hire.Zog Exercise: Identify tasks within your Zone of Genius and delegate tasks outside this zone to optimize your time.Hiring Process: Implement a thorough 12-step hiring process to ensure the right fit for your clinic's growth.Forward-Thinking: Embrace a proactive approach to hiring, focusing on building a team aligned with your long-term vision.Feel free to reach out to me and continue this conversation.

Hi there, and welcome back to another exciting episode of the Treat Your Business podcast with me Katie Bell! I'm thrilled to have you join me today as we delve deeper into the crucial foundations of business success.
Summary:
In this episode, we're shifting our focus to the second key foundation every business owner needs: the visibility strategy. As I always say, "Visibility is currency in your business." Without a clear strategy to make your presence known, you risk getting lost in the noise and missing out on valuable opportunities.Key Takeaways:
Know Your Audience: Whether you're a seasoned clinic owner or just starting out, understanding your audience's pain points and motivations is essential. People are driven to move away from problems, so tailor your marketing to address their specific concerns.Marketing Precision: Avoid the trap of trying to be everything to everybody. Instead, focus on speaking directly to the needs of your ideal client. Craft a clear elevator pitch that highlights who you serve and how you can help them.Consistent Visibility: Marketing should never stop, even when you're busy. Consistency is key to maintaining a steady flow of clients and income. Don't rely solely on word of mouth—invest in a multi-layered marketing strategy to reach your target audience effectively.Track and Adapt: Keep a close eye on your marketing efforts and track where your inquiries are coming from. This data will help you refine your approach and allocate resources to the most effective channels.Closing Thoughts:
Thank you for tuning in to today's episode! Remember, content consumption alone won't drive change—take action on what you've learned. Whether it's implementing new marketing tactics or exploring our transformational coaching programs, commit to moving your business forward.

Strategic Planning: Stepping off the treadmill of daily operations to focus on strategic planning is imperative for business growth.Profit Prioritisation: Revenue alone is not indicative of success; prioritising profit ensures sustainable business growth.Financial Projections: Establishing clear financial goals and projections helps guide strategic decisions and resource allocation.Time Management: Being proactive rather than reactive is crucial; effective time management allows for strategic decision-making and business development.Business Vision: Revisiting and realigning with your initial business vision is essential to adapt to changing circumstances and priorities.Business Support: Seeking external support, such as business and marketing audit calls, can provide valuable insights and strategic guidance for business improvement.Remember, embarking on a business journey without a clear plan is akin to setting off on a trek without a map – you'll likely lose your way. Take the first step towards strategic business growth by booking your complimentary business and marketing audit call today. Here's to transforming your clinic's future!
