When does it make sense to FINALLY use a Practice Consultant and Cosmetic Patient Marketing Specialist to improve your cosmetic business practice growth… especially if you’ve tried everything else in the past?  

Authored By:  Catherine Maley, MBA –  Speaker, Writer, Trainer, Podcaster, Consultant, Cosmetic Patient.

cosmetic business practice growth

If you’re even considering hiring a consultant then it probably makes sense to hire the RIGHT consultant assuming you’re crystal clear on what you are wanting to accomplish and here’s why…..

You’re probably closer to winning than you might think.

Consider this….

You already did the hard part of cosmetic business practice growth

Put the blood, sweat, and tears into the tough training, setting up your practice, and building a reputation.

You already are dedicating energy, time, and money to improvement in your cosmetic business practice growth.

It’s possible that you may not realize it, but that already makes you part of a fraction of 1% of the entire world who even has the discipline to do what you’ve done already.

Maybe it might seem like you’ve tried everything and failed but in reality, you’re at the 85-yard line.

Top Ways to Push Cosmetic Business Practice Growth

cosmetic business practice growth

Everybody knows and agrees that having a GOOD coach is critical to success:

You already know…..

How valuable it is to know what successful practices do rise above their competitors;

  • A new perspective can shed light on the practice gaps you’re not seeing;
  • How having a road map to lead you through the maze of practice-building
    saves you countless hours and wasted time and money making mistakes…

BUT, there’s a problem…

Actually, there are several…

First of all, good consultants are extremely expensive but generally regarded as worth it.

The problem isn’t necessarily in the cost.

The problem is how do you know the consultant can actually help you?

How do you know that it even makes sense for you to hire a consultant in the first place?

How do you know even if the consultant may have a great track record for helping other aesthetic practices, how do you know they are going to be able to help YOU specifically?

First, let’s find out if it even makes sense for you to hire a consultant in the first place.

Does it Make Sense for You to Hire a Consultant? 

cosmetic business practice growth

Step 1:  Get crystal clear about the problem by identifying the issue.

I want to be “successful” isn’t really a goal. Be specific.

We need to understand exactly what it is you want.

  • Do you know want to attract more cosmetic patients? If so, how many, by when?
  • You want better conversions? If so, by how much and by when?
  • Better online reviews?
  • Do you want more word-of-mouth referrals?
  • Do you want more professional staff representing you? If so, how many and in what positions to make the biggest impact on your bottom line?

Step #2: Identify What Does Not Work and Stop Doing it.

The idea that one thing is going to work for everyone is just silly.

Every single aesthetic practice is different.

They think differently. They have different needs.

That’s why finding the RIGHT consultant with a tailor-made program specifically for you makes the most sense.  Think about this…

We make plans, we get motivated, then start taking action to make cosmetic practice growth and then we stop. 

Have you tried every ninja shiny object Internet trick and you STILL don’t have the results you want? Guess what?

That probably isn’t the answer….or the entire answer.

Mass Advertising Campaigns

Have you tried mass advertising campaigns aggressive advertising salespeople pressured you for, saying this will make you a celebrity?

Again, That probably isn’t the answer….or the entire answer

It doesn’t mean the Internet and salespeople are bad, it just means it’s not for you.

Sure, they’ll help a little but that’s not enough. Something is missing.

They are NOT going to take you to the 100-yard line or else, you would already be there.

Step 3:  Understand You Can’t do it Alone.

Think about it, as a cosmetic surgeon in private practice, you most likely feel alone a lot of the time.

Like you are the only one who really cares about the health of your practice.

Nobody around you understands the pressure of running a cosmetic surgery practice in today’s world.

You are not supposed to be alone.

We are all supposed to collaborate and work together to solve problems.

The Power of Collaboration

Very few breakthroughs in the history of mankind have ever been achieved by one person alone without help.

Even Einstein had help (his wife was a very good mathematician he consulted with a lot).

If you are clinging to the belief that you can do it yourself, then you should NOT hire a consultant.

However, if you want to collaborate with someone who “feels your pain” wants to give you the best cosmetic business practice growth, and has the answers, then this is for you…

Here’s exactly how I can help you:

cosmetic business practice growth

First of all, I’m not like other consultants in our industry.

I don’t include fluff or any filler.

I don’t include untested processes and “theory” strategies – just the actual tested strategies I have used in aesthetic practices and with my own clients.

The tools for cosmetic practice growth are simple to learn.

Learning them is not the issue. I have taught these tools for 17 years in my Webinars, medical conference courses, and speaking engagements.

It’s applying the materials that can get more tricky. 

It’s when you take the ideas and put them to work in your practice that you might have some bumps in the road.

I know I can help you. Usually, it’s just a few tweaks that get you from missing the mark or the exact results you’re wanting.

These exact processes and tools have been used to help hundreds of other cosmetic surgeons and their staff to attract more patients, convert more consultations and build a successful aesthetic practice built on solid business principles.

It’s More Than Just Consulting

cosmetic business practice growth

It’s a system for feeling the peace of mind every day, consistently.

Not talking about feeling better for a few minutes.

I’m talking about feeling better all day and every day.

This simple and effective method doesn’t eliminate negative emotions from your life (you would never want that anyway since you want to grow). It simply teaches you how to manage it in a way that doesn’t compound it. If you have already learned the “How to Build a Cosmetic Practice” concepts and read books on the subject, but aren’t seeing the huge benefits yet, this is specifically designed for you.

With all due respect, this is not for the entitled or arrogant surgeon who knows it all.

This is for surgeons who….

  • Have a lot working for them but know they could be running a more streamlined and profitable practice;
  • Need a map of clarity so they have peace of mind knowing all systems (and staff) are working for the “good of the practice” and not just selfishly for themselves;
  • Know the gaps in their practice are costly them dearly.

If this sounds like you, this is exactly what you’re looking for.

Maybe you’re here because you are one of my 10,347 surgeons who follow me religiously through my live online training, blog, YouTube channel, Facebook page, speaking engagements, and email messages.

I have collected 20 years of experience working specifically with cash-paying cosmetic surgery practices so they get the most out of what they have built already and what they can build for a healthy and profitable future.

When you work with me, two things will happen:

First, you will start to become more conscious in your practice. You will start to understand how much control you have over the experiences you encounter every day.

This is really important, because if you think your day is just happening to you, then the feeling of powerlessness you experience will prevent you from making the changes and distinctions you’re missing.

Gain Peace of Mind

Second, you will gain peace of mind knowing you now have a plan to follow to get you where you always envisioned yourself to be:  successful, profitable, and confident.

Oh, and in case you are wondering….

TESTIMONIALS

5/5
"Catherine outlined a plan that put key metrics in place, gave us a clear plan to follow throughout the year and trained our staff to increase their conversions by at least 10%. Since engaging with Catherine, I’m happy to report that revenues are up 15% over the last three months - 22% in the last month alone! I highly recommend Catherine’s consulting services to any practice looking for “best practice” additions to their operation."
Robert Sigal, MD
Robert Sigal, MD
"I have finally tapped into the most efficient way to grow my cosmetic practice and that is to “fish in the pond of my own patients”. When patients return to my practice, over 85% will purchase another service, product, or procedure. Not only was it worth over $200,000 in revenues this past year, it also reminds my patients I’m still around so they don’t wander off to my competitors. Catherine’s group has far exceeded our expectations and goals we had set up for them to achieve."
Victor Ferrari, MD

"Our consult conversions were running at 40-50%. Then we attended Catherine’s online training and implemented her strategies. They immediately increased conversion rates to 75-80%."
Anthony Corrado, MD

"I know how to run a profitable practice; however, it was not without major staff issues, inefficiencies and unproductive drama. With Catherine's guidance, I reorganized staff, set up processes for them to carry more of the workload and hold them accountable so I have more time to focus on patient care. The changes we put in place and the staff training to convert more callers and consultations will easily increase my revenues by 15% as well as save us time, money and costly mistakes. "

"Working with Catherine and her team has been very profitable. We’re only half way through the year and I’m up $200K and I’m booked out for the next 2 months even though we typically go into our slow summer months now. Her recent promotion brought in an extra $63,782 with more surgeries scheduled. I never realized how much money was sitting in my patient list but I’m a believer now!"

"Catherine Maley has one of the best Marketing Minds in the aesthetic industry, bar none. She understands the aesthetic patient and she also understands the challenges and frustrations we face as aesthetic surgeons. You will benefit from Catherine's tools whether you are new in practice or a seasoned professional.Turn to Catherine for guidance - she knows what she's talking about."

“Catherine’s Cosmetic Patient Marketing Service has been a great addition to our practice-building overall plan. While we still invest in our online presence, we also found immense value in the internal marketing efforts. We especially like that all results are tracked so we know we are getting a great return ... last year it was 1,148% and no staff time was used. That’s a much easier way to grow my cosmetic practice.”
Mark Mason, MD
Mark Mason, MD
"Catherine Maley turned our practice around. We converted more consultations in one week than we did in an entire month. Our practice went from a painful 50% no show rate to a remarkable 85% show rate. Even more impressive was our close ratio - from 35% to 80% and still increasing. We would recommend her to any practice that’s looking to not only increase their profits today, but sustain a healthy flow of income for many years to come. Thanks Catherine!"

"Catherine found me the best patient care coordinator I could have asked for. She worked out a payment plan that was fair to me and motivating to my coordinator. She also provided training tools to help my coordinator convert better, even though she was already experienced. The results have been phenomenal. So good, in fact, that my income increased 250% and I’m booked out for 3 months. Don’t waste any more time or money doing it yourself. Outsource to someone you trust!"
Andrew Lofman, MD

"Since we’ve been working with Catherine and her team for the past 5 months, we’ve brought in $79K in surgeries and have booked an additional 17 surgical procedures and 20 non-invasive body procedures since then. This does not include the additional new patient referrals and revenues we are seeing from the on-going nurturing of my current patient database."
Verne Weisberg, MD
Verne Weisberg, MD
"I had given my staff the goal to convert at least $35K per week in surgeries AND I gave them the tools to help which was Catherine’s Online Learning Center at More Patients Academy. They watched Catherine’s modules and implemented her strategies and converted $80K! That equaled a 2,550% ROI. Nice!"
