Did any of you ever get the feeling in school that it simply was not OK to speak about wanting to be successful? To get into the nitty gritty details of how to make money in practice? Maybe you were even someone like me who was directly told by someone in a position of power that I needed to take what I could get because in private practice, I wouldn’t make money.
News In Brief
A "Modern" Business Model
Acupuncturists may have a new professional atmosphere to consider, as a new concept is on the horizon — at least for one business.
After studying and researching acupuncture, a group of entrepreneurs designed and launched a "modern" business model for this ancient healing medicine, which will focus on health, wellness, and prevention.
Technology also plays a role — new patients are to fill out their information on a tablet and then view a video that shares the benefits of acupuncture, as well as what to expect from their treatment. A great idea to dispel any negative thoughts clients may have about needles.
What do you think of this new business model, is this good for acupuncture? Send your thoughts to editorial@mpamedia.com.
