The Way Your Chiropractic Clinic Looks Is Marketing

According to Michael Gerber in his book the E-Myth, the way your office or business looks is Marketing. You want to use this opportunity to create a “home-court advantage” and fertile soil for people to do business with you. Chiropractic clinic design is high on the list, as is the look, feel, and tidiness of your space.

When new patients step foot into your chiropractic clinic you want them to instantly have the realization that they are in the right place. Patients all make the connection between the tidiness and attention to detail of the doctors, staff and clinic with the chiropractic care itself. McDonald’s has a staff check the restrooms after each use to make sure it is kept perfect. They know that nothing will turn-off a customer more that a dirty restroom. The customer translates dirty restroom into unsafe food. Are you turning off your patients with the way your office looks the second they walk in? It is not a big expense to be neat, clean, and organized. See our checklist below.

Does Your Office Pass The Test?
