How to best help referrals when you need to cold call

It’s probably the least favourite part of any health professional’s job. Having to cold call a referral?

For many of us, we don’t need to do it very often, if at all. But, for many health businesses, it’s a regular occurrence.

Simply put, a doctor, a specialist, other health professional amongst many other referral sources, sends a referral to a practitioner or health business and asks them to call the client, see the client and help them from there.

The real challenge is that this is basically a cold call from yourself or your team to a potential new client and regardless of how well that person was informed about yourselves, there is ultimately no real authority or expertise with that referral and the person receiving the call will always feel like a cold call referral.

It’s challenging. It opens up resistance from ourselves and the potential client on so many levels. No one likes sales calls, and no one likes a cold call. But in many circumstances, it needs to occur.

If you need to do it, then at least do it the right way. Start the relationship on the right foot and in the right way and there are several key aspects that are crucial to ensure you get it right each and every time.

No one likes to sell like a used-car salesman (no criticism there) so grab this powerful podcast episode where I work directly with several clients on how to take control, act in the right way, and always get the best result for yourself and the client.

Don’t be motivated if you want success

Why is it that everyone wants to be motivated? Motivational speakers. Motivational quotes. Motivation and inspiration everywhere.

Apparently, it leads to more success. That’s actually not true.

Motivation is often BS. Success actually comes when you’re not motivated.

You see it’s all linked to habits and self-discipline and there’s an intricate balance that most people get completely wrong.

Yet, with the right self-discipline and the right habits, success will always exceed your habits and motivation is not actually needed.

Grab the details now and make sure you don’t get fooled by all of this motivation that surrounds us all the time.

Transitioning Clients from Yourself to team members

One of biggest challenges a team can face is being able to move clients onto other practitioners when some practitioner’s diaries get too full.

It’s also a common occurrence for when successful allied health professionals and business owners need to grow their team and transition new clients onto the new therapist.

Unfortunately, it can be a somewhat daunting task and one that many practitioners get wrong. Not through any fault of their own, but just because it is a delicate situation that they have never been trained in.

You see, everyone wants to see the practitioner they were told they would see. Whether it was a family member, doctor or any other referral source, the trust lies with the person’s name that they were told to go and see.

But if that practitioner’s diary is completely full, no chance for them to be seen etc., then ultimately, we need to be able to ensure they get the appropriate treatment, an amazing experience and fantastic solution at the earliest possible time.

There’s a very simple way that this can be achieved and the model we work from ensures that it works perfectly from an ethical standpoint with the client’s needs at the forefront of what we say and do.

The best news is that the client gets everything they need. The business is able to grow. The team members feel supported, confident and in control. Everyone wins.

This great podcast as a talk with one of our clients about how he can leverage this model himself and transition more successfully, more of his clients from himself onto his latest team member.
