BootstrapMD - Physician Entrepreneurs Podcast with Dr. Mike Woo-Ming

“There are too many physician coaches!”, a student recently lamented to me. 

It may seem that way, but there are not many who have gotten to the point of a sustainable, long standing business. 

If you don’t want that to happen to you and want to turn your online business to a consistent revenue generator, you need to have the knowledge to create a highly converting lead magnet that converts visitors into clients. 

On this special episode,  I share with you the same tactics that helped our companies generate over 700,000 leads in 11 different markets.  This is one episode you will want to reference again and again!

I was first introduced to mindfulness several years ago in my business mastermind group, and is something that has become a daily morning ritual. Mindfulness allows me to clear my head and gives me permission to take a break from all the distractions and complications that can often overwhelm us.  

As a busy trauma surgeon and mother of three children, Dr. Serene Shereef went through tremendous burnout. She didn’t know which way to turn. Hiring a coach was her way out from the darkness, and now teaches mindfulness and productivity systems to other physicians through her programs and podcast.  Hear her inspirational story on this episode!

What is your relationship with money? 

I know that sounds like a weird question, but medical doctors seem to have an unusual relationship with money, especially when it comes to debt. 

How do you start a business If you have big burdensome medical school loans hanging over you?  Or should you? 

Here to help answer these questions is gastroenterologist and financial management expert Dr. Brent Lacey.  We discuss his origin on becoming a financial coach starting at his church, how his upbringing and military career influenced his thinking, and how he educates financial issues with physicians today.   He also has a very interesting take on the  FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) movement.   

There’s a lot of great nuggets of information on this call, so be sure you download this episode today!

To be honest, I didn’t know what imposter syndrome was until a few years ago.  I often acquainted it to just having self-doubt and self-limiting beliefs, which happens to all of us. 

But when I saw it firsthand at a recent doctor conference, I wanted to understand why it was so prevalent, especially among physicians. 

On this episode, recent research gives us better clues as to why imposter syndrome happens, as well as seven solutions to overcome this ever-growing problem. Once you conquer imposter syndrome, there should be nothing to stop you from achieving your goals!

There still exists a negative association of doctors wanting to start their own business.  There are many reasons for this:

There are many who feel bad at starting a venture “for profit”, although I have yet to see a business grow without the use of money.  Some equate a business as just another “side hustle”, like becoming an Uber driver.  Other see clinicians starting a business just to keep themselves occupied until something better comes along.

Many don’t see that a medical doctor acquires many skills and experiences that can be taught to others.  We are experiencing a big shift in employed medicine, and because of this opens an opportunity.  I first noticed this a few years ago, at my keynote address at BootcampMD 2.0.    On this episode, you’ll hear an excerpt from this talk, and why the importance of promoting and spotlighting physician-owned businesses is greater than ever.

You want to grow your business, while still maintaining your duties as a physician.  Sooner or later, something is going to give.

That was the dilemma one of my students was facing.  It’s something I’ve dealt with a lot in my career and I’m sure one time or another you’ve dealt with the same problem. 

This juggling act isn’t easy.  On this episode, I provide some solutions that might make it a little bit easier for the new physician entrepreneur.

In my humble opinion, a well thought out landing page is more important than developing a website.  Landing pages are standalone pages that serves one purpose: conversion.  Examples include signing up for a webinar, a free trial for your software program, or download an eBook.  There is an art to creating the perfect landing page, and on this episode, I’ll go over six simple steps that will help you convert more visitors into subscribers.
