00:00:21.675 --> 00:00:22.856
A show intro is so good,
00:00:22.896 --> 00:00:23.815
you got to play it twice.
00:00:23.896 --> 00:00:25.536
Good morning, PT Breakfast Club.
00:00:25.577 --> 00:00:26.696
Dave Kittle, I'm Jimmy McKay,
00:00:26.736 --> 00:00:28.376
Tony Maritato will be jumping in shortly.
00:00:29.998 --> 00:00:31.417
This Tuesday feels like a Monday.
00:00:32.718 --> 00:00:33.779
I'm on the struggle bus
00:00:33.838 --> 00:00:34.499
right now this morning.
00:00:34.539 --> 00:00:36.259
Dave, how are you doing?
00:00:36.338 --> 00:00:36.899
I'm feeling great.
00:00:36.918 --> 00:00:37.319
What's going on?
00:00:37.338 --> 00:00:38.799
What's wrong?
00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:40.420
I did a conference this weekend,
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:41.479
so I was away,
00:00:41.740 --> 00:00:43.801
which used to be my normal.
00:00:44.822 --> 00:00:46.963
Um, but now I'm just like, you know,
00:00:46.984 --> 00:00:48.344
it takes me a day or two to recover.
00:00:48.365 --> 00:00:49.725
I did the AMT conference.
00:00:49.746 --> 00:00:51.207
We did PPS two weeks ago.
00:00:51.987 --> 00:00:53.009
Then I took a two week break
00:00:53.048 --> 00:00:54.149
and did the AMT conference.
00:00:54.170 --> 00:00:54.850
Have you ever been to any of
00:00:54.869 --> 00:00:55.691
those like specialty
00:00:55.731 --> 00:00:56.591
conferences like that?
00:00:57.472 --> 00:00:58.112
No, you didn't go to PPS?
00:00:58.133 --> 00:00:58.192
PPS.
00:00:58.232 --> 00:01:00.274
Yeah.
00:01:00.295 --> 00:01:00.975
Twice.
00:01:01.015 --> 00:01:02.036
Not, not AMT.
00:01:03.256 --> 00:01:04.018
Tony, what else?
00:01:04.078 --> 00:01:05.399
What other conferences have you been to?
00:01:06.462 --> 00:01:07.563
For physical therapy?
00:01:07.643 --> 00:01:08.382
No.
00:01:08.483 --> 00:01:10.224
The PPS was the first one ever.
00:01:11.465 --> 00:01:12.805
Yeah, I could see you guys as, like,
00:01:13.286 --> 00:01:14.307
get in there and mix it up.
00:01:14.326 --> 00:01:15.027
Conference bros.
00:01:15.046 --> 00:01:17.007
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:01:17.087 --> 00:01:18.188
I mean, we were introduced.
00:01:18.269 --> 00:01:18.649
It was, like,
00:01:18.709 --> 00:01:21.611
really hammered on us in PT school to,
00:01:21.631 --> 00:01:23.492
like, test those, at least go to one.
00:01:24.472 --> 00:01:26.093
But I also went to PT school, like,
00:01:26.134 --> 00:01:26.634
in the D.C.
00:01:26.733 --> 00:01:29.456
area where a lot of, like, APTA stuff was.
00:01:29.876 --> 00:01:31.417
So for us, it was almost, like, normal.
00:01:31.576 --> 00:01:32.578
It was, like, just around.
00:01:34.533 --> 00:01:36.656
Yeah, PT school was a formality for me.
00:01:36.917 --> 00:01:38.519
I showed up as many times as
00:01:38.579 --> 00:01:39.721
I had to show up to get the
00:01:39.762 --> 00:01:40.884
letters after my name.
00:01:41.625 --> 00:01:43.048
Outside of that, I was done.
00:01:45.250 --> 00:01:45.409
Gotcha.
00:01:45.430 --> 00:01:47.210
What do you guys want to
00:01:47.230 --> 00:01:47.871
talk about this morning?
00:01:47.951 --> 00:01:49.052
I have a LinkedIn post that
00:01:49.072 --> 00:01:49.832
I wanted to share.
00:01:50.534 --> 00:01:51.754
And this is something we've
00:01:51.795 --> 00:01:54.137
talked about before in
00:01:54.197 --> 00:01:55.757
terms of what people are looking for.
00:01:55.998 --> 00:01:57.138
And this one like popped off.
00:01:57.159 --> 00:01:57.659
That's what I know.
00:01:57.679 --> 00:01:58.540
It's like sort of like
00:01:58.620 --> 00:01:59.460
resonating with people.
00:02:00.001 --> 00:02:00.600
And this is like,
00:02:00.841 --> 00:02:01.921
we've had this conversation
00:02:01.941 --> 00:02:03.823
before where like,
00:02:04.183 --> 00:02:07.106
PTs are looking for non-clinical jobs.
00:02:07.826 --> 00:02:09.049
And I'm always like, hey,
00:02:09.109 --> 00:02:10.509
what are you actually looking for?
00:02:10.969 --> 00:02:12.572
Okay, I've got a quick question.
00:02:12.912 --> 00:02:16.455
Is it burned out, like burned ED,
00:02:16.594 --> 00:02:18.717
or is it burnt like NT?
00:02:18.877 --> 00:02:19.698
I never know.
00:02:20.179 --> 00:02:22.860
I feel like it could be either.
00:02:23.442 --> 00:02:23.641
Right?
00:02:23.981 --> 00:02:24.282
Dave.
00:02:24.361 --> 00:02:24.782
Burned out.
00:02:26.405 --> 00:02:27.605
I feel like you could flip a
00:02:27.645 --> 00:02:28.947
coin and either way,
00:02:29.306 --> 00:02:30.127
you're probably not burned
00:02:30.206 --> 00:02:34.030
out or burnt out.
00:02:34.110 --> 00:02:35.349
I'm going to try to be nice today.
00:02:35.389 --> 00:02:36.570
I told Tony in the interview,
00:02:36.711 --> 00:02:37.451
I'm going to try to be
00:02:37.472 --> 00:02:38.391
professional about it.
00:02:38.792 --> 00:02:41.093
But anyway, we can get into it.
00:02:42.158 --> 00:02:43.599
Okay, go ahead, Jimmy.
00:02:43.620 --> 00:02:44.740
So the idea here is, you know,
00:02:44.780 --> 00:02:46.219
PTs are burned out.
00:02:46.980 --> 00:02:48.181
They're experiencing burnout.
00:02:48.320 --> 00:02:50.222
That's the way you go around it, right?
00:02:50.241 --> 00:02:51.762
You just say they're experiencing burnout.
00:02:52.582 --> 00:02:54.723
And we see like,
00:02:54.743 --> 00:02:55.963
I feel like two or three
00:02:56.024 --> 00:02:57.585
posts a week of people like
00:02:57.865 --> 00:02:58.805
posting anonymously,
00:02:58.844 --> 00:02:59.784
which I know Dave loves,
00:03:01.566 --> 00:03:04.046
looking for these non-clinical roles.
00:03:04.586 --> 00:03:06.087
So it's funny because like people are like,
00:03:06.168 --> 00:03:07.587
I want to stay in the profession,
00:03:08.068 --> 00:03:09.609
but I don't want to do the thing
00:03:10.724 --> 00:03:12.165
that the profession's based around.
00:03:12.286 --> 00:03:13.848
And I want to make this amount of money,
00:03:14.268 --> 00:03:14.868
if not more.
00:03:15.188 --> 00:03:16.550
And I want to have a better schedule.
00:03:17.091 --> 00:03:18.671
And then I'm like, they're like,
00:03:18.711 --> 00:03:20.013
do these jobs exist?
00:03:20.092 --> 00:03:20.913
That's like the question.
00:03:20.933 --> 00:03:22.074
Like, where do I find these jobs?
00:03:22.094 --> 00:03:22.955
Do these jobs exist?
00:03:23.376 --> 00:03:23.776
And I'm like,
00:03:24.037 --> 00:03:25.557
I want to do that Buzz Lightyear meme.
00:03:25.578 --> 00:03:26.838
Do you guys know the Buzz Lightyear meme?
00:03:26.878 --> 00:03:28.681
Where it's like, yes,
00:03:28.781 --> 00:03:29.981
non-clinical jobs are.
00:03:32.235 --> 00:03:33.358
Like they're anything except
00:03:33.478 --> 00:03:33.998
in the clinic.
00:03:34.019 --> 00:03:35.943
So, but what you're actually saying,
00:03:35.962 --> 00:03:36.623
what these posts are
00:03:36.764 --> 00:03:38.766
actually saying is I want a
00:03:38.828 --> 00:03:40.330
clinically adjacent job.
00:03:40.691 --> 00:03:42.193
Like what can I do?
00:03:42.274 --> 00:03:43.354
So I still feel like I'm in
00:03:43.375 --> 00:03:44.157
the profession.
00:03:44.176 --> 00:03:44.257
Yeah.
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:47.501
And that's like utilization review,
00:03:47.580 --> 00:03:48.562
case management.
00:03:48.622 --> 00:03:48.882
By the way,
00:03:48.921 --> 00:03:50.081
isn't like utilization review
00:03:50.102 --> 00:03:52.002
that you know, like all the time,
00:03:52.043 --> 00:03:53.704
like someone saying like, oh,
00:03:53.764 --> 00:03:54.944
you're not approved for this.
00:03:55.004 --> 00:03:55.884
Like, how do I go?
00:03:56.145 --> 00:03:57.645
How do I go become a storm trooper?
00:03:57.846 --> 00:03:59.706
Like, how do I go be the terrible,
00:03:59.986 --> 00:04:00.546
terrible job?
00:04:00.646 --> 00:04:01.146
Absolutely.
00:04:01.247 --> 00:04:01.548
Say it.
00:04:01.568 --> 00:04:02.187
Say it how it is.
00:04:02.849 --> 00:04:03.070
Right.
00:04:03.311 --> 00:04:04.653
I mean, I would assume, right?
00:04:04.693 --> 00:04:05.656
That's like the other side,
00:04:05.675 --> 00:04:06.717
someone reviewing someone's
00:04:06.758 --> 00:04:07.680
care and saying like,
00:04:08.501 --> 00:04:09.443
you're approved for two
00:04:09.483 --> 00:04:11.145
visits when a week ago you
00:04:11.165 --> 00:04:12.147
were saying I wanted ten.
00:04:12.588 --> 00:04:13.069
So anyway,
00:04:13.431 --> 00:04:14.873
my whole point with this post was like,
00:04:16.345 --> 00:04:17.485
Take a look inside.
00:04:18.406 --> 00:04:20.107
What are you actually frustrated with?
00:04:20.226 --> 00:04:21.487
I'm not saying clinical care
00:04:21.567 --> 00:04:22.406
can't burn you out.
00:04:22.648 --> 00:04:23.108
It can.
00:04:23.687 --> 00:04:24.608
There are lots of different
00:04:24.627 --> 00:04:26.209
ways to deliver clinical care.
00:04:26.309 --> 00:04:27.189
That's what I'm sort of
00:04:27.249 --> 00:04:28.129
trying to do with the new
00:04:28.170 --> 00:04:29.610
series on our podcast, which is like,
00:04:29.930 --> 00:04:30.571
let's look at all these
00:04:30.790 --> 00:04:31.850
different business models.
00:04:32.130 --> 00:04:33.052
I would love to show.
00:04:33.812 --> 00:04:34.752
a thousand different
00:04:34.793 --> 00:04:36.413
business models right that
00:04:36.454 --> 00:04:37.774
guy chris corner the corner
00:04:37.834 --> 00:04:38.995
office podcast is great
00:04:39.036 --> 00:04:40.057
like I feel like that dude
00:04:40.596 --> 00:04:41.858
finds a new business under
00:04:41.898 --> 00:04:43.238
literally every rock and
00:04:43.300 --> 00:04:44.761
leaf in fact I bet you he
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:46.201
has a rock removal business
00:04:46.601 --> 00:04:48.803
or a wood a wood a firewood
00:04:48.824 --> 00:04:50.485
but that's that's sort of
00:04:50.504 --> 00:04:51.245
what I wanted to highlight
00:04:51.266 --> 00:04:51.925
with this post and it
00:04:51.985 --> 00:04:52.747
resonated with a lot of
00:04:52.786 --> 00:04:54.348
people positively and
00:04:54.447 --> 00:04:56.470
negatively people on both
00:04:56.490 --> 00:04:57.750
sides of the fence and I
00:04:57.790 --> 00:04:58.891
was really just saying like
00:05:00.086 --> 00:05:01.026
If you're looking for this
00:05:01.086 --> 00:05:01.947
non-clinical role,
00:05:02.968 --> 00:05:05.610
what will actually make you happy?
00:05:05.689 --> 00:05:06.790
If you're burnout, frustrated,
00:05:06.810 --> 00:05:07.630
or feeling unfulfilled,
00:05:08.050 --> 00:05:09.232
swapping one thing for
00:05:09.271 --> 00:05:10.293
another so you can sort of
00:05:10.333 --> 00:05:11.252
keep one foot in the
00:05:11.293 --> 00:05:12.834
profession isn't going to
00:05:12.913 --> 00:05:14.194
actually get the job done.
00:05:14.595 --> 00:05:16.115
So I do feel for these people.
00:05:16.216 --> 00:05:17.096
I'm not mocking them.
00:05:17.317 --> 00:05:18.098
But what I'm saying is
00:05:18.598 --> 00:05:19.879
taking a step into a
00:05:19.939 --> 00:05:21.660
clinically adjacent role
00:05:22.019 --> 00:05:23.120
might not actually do the
00:05:23.141 --> 00:05:24.041
thing you're looking for.
00:05:24.221 --> 00:05:25.382
So I know it sucks,
00:05:25.401 --> 00:05:26.343
but you have to start with
00:05:26.442 --> 00:05:27.163
self-reflection.
00:05:27.663 --> 00:05:29.245
What do you want your day to look like?
00:05:29.625 --> 00:05:31.146
Like, so I don't know.
00:05:31.305 --> 00:05:32.307
I put that out there to a
00:05:32.367 --> 00:05:33.807
whole bunch of traction on LinkedIn.
00:05:35.307 --> 00:05:36.168
I think there's a couple
00:05:36.848 --> 00:05:37.930
forces and factors.
00:05:38.009 --> 00:05:38.689
And of course, I mean,
00:05:39.110 --> 00:05:40.271
I always am curious to hear
00:05:40.310 --> 00:05:41.492
what Tony has to say about it, but.
00:05:42.622 --> 00:05:43.341
Before COVID,
00:05:43.781 --> 00:05:45.642
we didn't really hear this as much.
00:05:45.802 --> 00:05:48.644
There were Facebook groups available.
00:05:48.925 --> 00:05:50.584
Maybe there's more Facebook groups now.
00:05:51.125 --> 00:05:52.665
We know that, or at least I believe,
00:05:53.545 --> 00:05:55.367
there's a lot of negative
00:05:56.327 --> 00:05:57.307
sentiment in a lot of these
00:05:57.327 --> 00:05:57.987
Facebook groups.
00:05:58.569 --> 00:06:01.449
Sometimes right on and makes sense.
00:06:01.470 --> 00:06:02.470
And sometimes I think a
00:06:02.509 --> 00:06:04.951
little exaggerated or far-fetched.
00:06:06.312 --> 00:06:06.911
In my opinion,
00:06:07.872 --> 00:06:08.892
a lot of the folks that want
00:06:08.913 --> 00:06:09.952
to get out of healthcare or
00:06:10.012 --> 00:06:11.173
get out of physical therapy or whatever,
00:06:11.976 --> 00:06:12.738
We went through COVID,
00:06:12.939 --> 00:06:14.403
a lot of their friends, neighbors,
00:06:14.583 --> 00:06:17.129
cousins were able to work from home.
00:06:17.149 --> 00:06:17.769
They want that.
00:06:17.810 --> 00:06:19.072
They want the ability to
00:06:19.113 --> 00:06:19.875
make a hundred grand
00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:22.478
treat three telehealth
00:06:22.499 --> 00:06:26.281
patients a day or something and, and, uh,
00:06:26.300 --> 00:06:26.740
you know, have,
00:06:26.841 --> 00:06:28.401
have Mondays and Fridays off.
00:06:28.922 --> 00:06:29.781
Like that's,
00:06:29.942 --> 00:06:30.802
I think that's one of the big
00:06:30.843 --> 00:06:31.822
forces you got.
00:06:31.942 --> 00:06:34.043
If you, if you think I'm wrong, fine,
00:06:34.084 --> 00:06:34.723
let's talk about it.
00:06:34.744 --> 00:06:37.165
But there's these changes.
00:06:37.285 --> 00:06:37.685
Now, of course,
00:06:38.005 --> 00:06:39.526
if you have the productivity and all that,
00:06:39.586 --> 00:06:40.867
and you're not being compensated,
00:06:40.887 --> 00:06:42.348
of course, then, then, you know,
00:06:42.387 --> 00:06:44.487
go indeed, go, you know, talk to PT match,
00:06:44.528 --> 00:06:45.928
go to other places at head hunters,
00:06:45.949 --> 00:06:47.170
whatever, find other jobs,
00:06:47.209 --> 00:06:47.829
other opportunities.
00:06:47.889 --> 00:06:49.209
Maybe you have to relocate, whatever.
00:06:49.911 --> 00:06:50.031
Um,
00:06:50.891 --> 00:06:53.112
But I think a lot of this is around COVID,
00:06:53.512 --> 00:06:55.632
the shakeup of health care with COVID.
00:06:56.593 --> 00:06:57.452
Some organizations and
00:06:57.492 --> 00:06:58.973
health systems maybe didn't
00:06:58.994 --> 00:07:01.033
just continue to pound productivity,
00:07:01.093 --> 00:07:03.654
maybe is not praising and
00:07:03.714 --> 00:07:04.814
recognizing the team members.
00:07:04.855 --> 00:07:06.096
Maybe there is a bad culture
00:07:06.115 --> 00:07:07.235
and they need to get out of that.
00:07:07.516 --> 00:07:08.497
But it doesn't make sense to
00:07:08.516 --> 00:07:10.237
me to completely leave the
00:07:10.257 --> 00:07:11.838
profession and go do
00:07:11.918 --> 00:07:13.317
utilization review or whatever.
00:07:13.617 --> 00:07:15.658
That is crazy to me when you
00:07:15.678 --> 00:07:16.418
went to school for what you
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:18.439
went to and you wanted to do that.
00:07:18.660 --> 00:07:19.399
I don't know.
00:07:20.026 --> 00:07:23.670
Tony, what's going on here?
00:07:23.689 --> 00:07:25.130
What's Jimmy going to say?
00:07:25.211 --> 00:07:26.151
If you're going to go do a
00:07:26.211 --> 00:07:27.012
utilization review,
00:07:27.093 --> 00:07:30.216
go become an interior decorator.
00:07:30.295 --> 00:07:31.898
Go become a jet pilot.
00:07:32.257 --> 00:07:33.540
If you're going to take a step away,
00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:34.560
why are you taking a
00:07:34.641 --> 00:07:35.701
quarter of a step away?
00:07:36.002 --> 00:07:37.663
Go jump.
00:07:37.884 --> 00:07:41.887
If you dislike it enough to leave, jump.
00:07:42.127 --> 00:07:42.728
Really jump.
00:07:43.550 --> 00:07:47.132
Yeah, I think it's confusion.
00:07:47.552 --> 00:07:49.495
You don't know you had this
00:07:49.555 --> 00:07:50.596
vision that you were going
00:07:50.615 --> 00:07:51.456
to be fulfilled,
00:07:51.497 --> 00:07:53.377
getting into therapy and helping people.
00:07:53.819 --> 00:07:54.660
And then you get there and
00:07:54.680 --> 00:07:55.439
you're not fulfilled.
00:07:55.961 --> 00:07:57.682
I think the complaints about
00:07:58.103 --> 00:08:00.264
overproduction isn't really
00:08:00.303 --> 00:08:01.966
the right target of your
00:08:01.985 --> 00:08:03.387
frustration because if you
00:08:03.427 --> 00:08:04.327
love what you're doing,
00:08:04.767 --> 00:08:06.250
you're going to overproduce.
00:08:06.290 --> 00:08:06.769
Like, yeah,
00:08:06.870 --> 00:08:08.632
if you're enjoying what you're doing,
00:08:08.651 --> 00:08:09.973
you're going to do more of it.
00:08:10.533 --> 00:08:11.574
I think you just get there.
00:08:11.593 --> 00:08:14.456
And the reality is you find
00:08:14.536 --> 00:08:16.617
patients aren't as willing
00:08:16.697 --> 00:08:18.077
as you want them to be to
00:08:18.117 --> 00:08:19.158
do the things you want them
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:20.800
to do to improve.
00:08:21.399 --> 00:08:22.901
And so this is the root of
00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:24.903
my conversation with Dave all the time.
00:08:24.963 --> 00:08:25.283
It's like.
00:08:25.702 --> 00:08:28.204
Dave is seeing patients that
00:08:28.245 --> 00:08:29.026
are paying hundreds of
00:08:29.065 --> 00:08:30.107
dollars doing all this
00:08:30.127 --> 00:08:31.468
stuff because they want to improve.
00:08:31.487 --> 00:08:32.269
They want to get better.
00:08:33.110 --> 00:08:34.370
I tend to see patients who
00:08:34.431 --> 00:08:35.432
are willing to come if it's
00:08:35.451 --> 00:08:37.452
covered by insurance and that's about it.
00:08:37.513 --> 00:08:38.533
And they, you know,
00:08:38.573 --> 00:08:40.014
they're not coming to me
00:08:40.535 --> 00:08:41.736
for the things that I want
00:08:41.777 --> 00:08:42.998
them to come to me for.
00:08:43.018 --> 00:08:43.619
And that's okay.
00:08:43.678 --> 00:08:44.759
I'm comfortable with that.
00:08:44.820 --> 00:08:46.760
I can deliver a solution that,
00:08:47.041 --> 00:08:48.682
that addresses their desires.
00:08:49.283 --> 00:08:50.825
Like Jimmy said, I agree.
00:08:50.865 --> 00:08:52.346
Like why in the world would,
00:08:52.405 --> 00:08:54.707
Would I want to just take a half step out,
00:08:54.927 --> 00:08:56.669
stay in those horrible
00:08:57.850 --> 00:09:00.413
circles of people that are frustrated,
00:09:00.493 --> 00:09:01.634
that aren't happy?
00:09:01.714 --> 00:09:03.855
Utilization reviewers don't love life.
00:09:06.698 --> 00:09:06.839
Why not?
00:09:06.859 --> 00:09:07.860
I talked to my kid the other day.
00:09:07.899 --> 00:09:08.179
I'm like,
00:09:08.549 --> 00:09:10.791
Look, I think don't go to college,
00:09:11.351 --> 00:09:12.211
become a plumber.
00:09:12.552 --> 00:09:13.413
We were Googling,
00:09:13.493 --> 00:09:14.933
what do I need to become a plumber?
00:09:15.514 --> 00:09:15.953
I said,
00:09:16.153 --> 00:09:17.774
pick a trade job that pays you
00:09:17.835 --> 00:09:18.875
hundreds of dollars,
00:09:19.296 --> 00:09:21.456
pick the easiest aspect of that trade.
00:09:21.476 --> 00:09:23.477
So I said, don't become a painter.
00:09:24.099 --> 00:09:25.499
We paint our house a lot,
00:09:25.539 --> 00:09:26.220
we paint the rooms.
00:09:26.659 --> 00:09:27.360
Don't paint because
00:09:27.400 --> 00:09:28.221
everybody looks at the
00:09:28.260 --> 00:09:29.101
walls and they will see
00:09:29.241 --> 00:09:31.322
every imperfection in the paint.
00:09:31.822 --> 00:09:33.686
be a plumber, be an electrician,
00:09:33.806 --> 00:09:35.107
do things that nobody sees.
00:09:35.509 --> 00:09:37.171
They just get the end result,
00:09:37.211 --> 00:09:39.293
the lights turn on, the water, you know,
00:09:39.313 --> 00:09:41.456
the toilet flushes and do
00:09:41.476 --> 00:09:42.259
the easiest thing,
00:09:42.278 --> 00:09:43.000
charge three hundred
00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:44.221
dollars to fix a leaky
00:09:44.241 --> 00:09:45.363
toilet that won't stop
00:09:45.442 --> 00:09:47.426
leaking and don't do anything else.
00:09:48.006 --> 00:09:49.207
fill your bank account with
00:09:49.268 --> 00:09:51.307
money and then go out and
00:09:51.347 --> 00:09:52.568
do other things that you
00:09:52.609 --> 00:09:53.989
might be more passionate about.
00:09:54.450 --> 00:09:56.910
So I just think that they thought, hey,
00:09:57.091 --> 00:09:58.831
I'm going to go treat a bunch of people.
00:09:58.870 --> 00:09:59.871
I'm going to change lives.
00:09:59.912 --> 00:10:01.011
I'm going to help geriatrics
00:10:01.032 --> 00:10:02.113
stay in the home longer.
00:10:02.633 --> 00:10:03.673
And you realize that's not
00:10:03.753 --> 00:10:05.193
what they're looking for.
00:10:05.474 --> 00:10:06.453
And you're not getting paid
00:10:06.494 --> 00:10:07.475
enough to deal with the
00:10:07.514 --> 00:10:09.235
frustration of trying to
00:10:09.254 --> 00:10:10.556
help someone who doesn't want your help.
00:10:11.041 --> 00:10:13.283
I help organizations launch
00:10:13.322 --> 00:10:15.004
podcasts and things like that,
00:10:15.104 --> 00:10:16.424
and I was talking to
00:10:16.485 --> 00:10:17.885
someone this weekend at the
00:10:17.985 --> 00:10:18.807
AOMT conference.
00:10:18.866 --> 00:10:19.486
They said, hey,
00:10:20.028 --> 00:10:21.688
why does it take so long for us?
00:10:21.928 --> 00:10:23.309
You lay out a process on
00:10:23.330 --> 00:10:24.510
this dry erase board,
00:10:24.791 --> 00:10:25.991
and then we go do it,
00:10:26.611 --> 00:10:27.572
and then it never works as
00:10:27.613 --> 00:10:29.413
smoothly as we think it could or should.
00:10:29.695 --> 00:10:30.034
And I said,
00:10:30.054 --> 00:10:32.437
do you want the real answer or
00:10:32.476 --> 00:10:34.097
the answer you're paying me for, right?
00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:37.879
How about the one you're paying me for?
00:10:38.038 --> 00:10:38.960
We've got to optimize the
00:10:39.019 --> 00:10:41.240
systems to match the expectations, blah,
00:10:41.260 --> 00:10:41.880
blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:10:42.140 --> 00:10:43.100
And I said, you want the real answer?
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:43.741
They go, yeah, I go.
00:10:43.902 --> 00:10:44.922
Because people are involved.
00:10:45.682 --> 00:10:47.302
People make things messy, right?
00:10:47.442 --> 00:10:50.264
And in therapy and in healthcare,
00:10:50.683 --> 00:10:51.284
it's people.
00:10:51.404 --> 00:10:53.605
It's people on people on people on people.
00:10:53.706 --> 00:10:54.765
And you have to like sort of
00:10:54.806 --> 00:10:56.187
know going into, yes,
00:10:56.246 --> 00:10:57.086
it probably could go
00:10:57.147 --> 00:10:58.707
smoother or easier or
00:10:58.748 --> 00:10:59.988
faster or more fulfilling.
00:11:00.567 --> 00:11:01.629
But the issue is people.
00:11:01.649 --> 00:11:02.428
Right.
00:11:02.609 --> 00:11:03.469
Every time you run into a
00:11:03.528 --> 00:11:04.549
person in a process,
00:11:04.809 --> 00:11:06.049
there becomes more friction.
00:11:06.090 --> 00:11:07.450
And you have to – I think as
00:11:07.470 --> 00:11:08.630
soon as you understand that
00:11:09.471 --> 00:11:10.431
and you can take a breath,
00:11:10.510 --> 00:11:11.831
it becomes a little more frustrating.
00:11:11.851 --> 00:11:12.631
As soon as you – sorry.
00:11:12.851 --> 00:11:13.991
As soon as you accept that.
00:11:14.371 --> 00:11:15.932
You could understand it but not accept it.
00:11:15.993 --> 00:11:17.712
I think as soon as you accept that,
00:11:18.092 --> 00:11:20.953
that this is not –
00:11:20.936 --> 00:11:21.636
And you're probably not
00:11:21.657 --> 00:11:22.777
getting paid for how
00:11:23.336 --> 00:11:24.638
frustrating it might be
00:11:24.758 --> 00:11:26.278
until you accept it and put
00:11:26.298 --> 00:11:27.980
yourself in the position in
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:30.660
a role in a place that you're like, OK,
00:11:31.081 --> 00:11:32.782
I am equally compensated for my time.
00:11:33.142 --> 00:11:33.341
Right.
00:11:33.721 --> 00:11:35.163
I think that's that's really it.
00:11:35.942 --> 00:11:37.782
So let's try to provide
00:11:38.221 --> 00:11:40.363
something of value to anybody watching.
00:11:40.442 --> 00:11:41.243
Yesterday,
00:11:41.802 --> 00:11:42.783
I shared with you guys a
00:11:42.842 --> 00:11:44.303
screenshot of a post from
00:11:44.403 --> 00:11:45.864
Meredith Kasten's group.
00:11:46.323 --> 00:11:48.245
This was a person who was a
00:11:48.284 --> 00:11:51.004
therapist for like thirty years or longer,
00:11:51.504 --> 00:11:52.846
has all of this, you know,
00:11:52.885 --> 00:11:55.225
great knowledge, great, great history,
00:11:56.025 --> 00:11:57.407
doesn't want to do patient care,
00:11:58.047 --> 00:12:00.386
but has been looking for a job,
00:12:00.427 --> 00:12:01.647
can't find a job.
00:12:02.388 --> 00:12:04.368
And they were like, what am I doing wrong?
00:12:05.116 --> 00:12:07.217
And so from my perspective now, of course,
00:12:07.278 --> 00:12:08.457
you only get half the story.
00:12:08.918 --> 00:12:09.658
We have no idea.
00:12:09.698 --> 00:12:09.839
Like,
00:12:09.879 --> 00:12:11.239
is this person looking for a
00:12:11.298 --> 00:12:12.639
non-clinical job that still
00:12:12.679 --> 00:12:14.179
pays a hundred dollars an hour?
00:12:14.779 --> 00:12:15.860
Is this, you know, there,
00:12:16.020 --> 00:12:17.860
there were a lot of stipulations in here.
00:12:18.081 --> 00:12:19.481
It's too small for me to see.
00:12:19.522 --> 00:12:20.802
Can one of you guys read that?
00:12:21.202 --> 00:12:21.442
Yeah.
00:12:23.615 --> 00:12:24.777
One of your speakers is a little loud,
00:12:24.797 --> 00:12:25.778
so we're getting some feedback,
00:12:25.817 --> 00:12:27.299
but I need, here's the post.
00:12:27.841 --> 00:12:29.503
I need advice and encouragement, please.
00:12:29.523 --> 00:12:30.985
I'm a bit frustrated with my job search.
00:12:31.384 --> 00:12:31.966
My background,
00:12:32.407 --> 00:12:35.951
thirty years PT with a DPT and CHCM.
00:12:36.150 --> 00:12:36.631
What is that?
00:12:36.672 --> 00:12:37.493
What is CHCM?
00:12:39.302 --> 00:12:39.442
No idea.
00:12:39.461 --> 00:12:40.322
I'll Google that.
00:12:40.342 --> 00:12:41.543
Experience includes former
00:12:41.582 --> 00:12:42.462
private practice owner,
00:12:42.602 --> 00:12:43.722
manager at Top Hospital,
00:12:43.863 --> 00:12:46.823
EBP project manager, UM clinical reviewer,
00:12:46.943 --> 00:12:48.404
auditor since twenty seventeen.
00:12:48.924 --> 00:12:49.865
At this stage of my life,
00:12:50.004 --> 00:12:51.024
I just need a part time
00:12:51.065 --> 00:12:52.105
remote nonclinical and
00:12:52.166 --> 00:12:53.385
preferably ten ninety nine
00:12:53.426 --> 00:12:54.505
job to pay basic living
00:12:54.566 --> 00:12:55.726
expenses until I retire.
00:12:56.187 --> 00:12:57.606
How does one explain this in
00:12:57.687 --> 00:12:58.307
cover letters and
00:12:58.346 --> 00:12:59.868
interviews without sounding unmotivated?
00:13:00.528 --> 00:13:01.607
Don't do that.
00:13:01.668 --> 00:13:01.967
That is.
00:13:03.149 --> 00:13:04.808
I keep getting your qualified.
00:13:07.217 --> 00:13:10.019
You don't put it in a cover
00:13:10.058 --> 00:13:11.599
letter what you would do.
00:13:11.739 --> 00:13:13.820
So this individual is a
00:13:13.860 --> 00:13:14.620
previous practice owner.
00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:16.520
That means you have been out there.
00:13:16.721 --> 00:13:17.821
You probably had some challenges.
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:20.182
You probably have thicker skin.
00:13:20.221 --> 00:13:21.542
You've seen a lot of the world,
00:13:21.581 --> 00:13:22.642
how the world works, all that.
00:13:23.361 --> 00:13:24.682
Okay, here's one tip.
00:13:24.883 --> 00:13:25.482
Tony said, hey,
00:13:25.503 --> 00:13:26.523
let's try to provide value.
00:13:26.722 --> 00:13:27.462
Here's what I would do.
00:13:28.423 --> 00:13:29.043
Contact...
00:13:29.962 --> 00:13:32.303
Business owners like me, Tony, maybe Jimmy,
00:13:32.364 --> 00:13:32.683
I don't know.
00:13:33.183 --> 00:13:36.546
Contact them and say, hey, Tony,
00:13:37.186 --> 00:13:39.427
what's your biggest challenges right now?
00:13:39.706 --> 00:13:39.787
Oh,
00:13:39.807 --> 00:13:41.028
you don't want to hire a full-time
00:13:41.048 --> 00:13:41.788
physical therapist?
00:13:41.827 --> 00:13:42.048
Or, oh,
00:13:42.128 --> 00:13:43.229
I see you're doing a lot of this
00:13:44.249 --> 00:13:47.051
content around this Biodex treadmill.
00:13:47.630 --> 00:13:50.192
You just contact, cold message on LinkedIn,
00:13:50.672 --> 00:13:52.952
website, email, whatever, find it,
00:13:53.033 --> 00:13:53.774
Facebook, wherever.
00:13:54.884 --> 00:13:55.403
Contact people.
00:13:55.423 --> 00:13:56.384
You want it to be virtual?
00:13:56.424 --> 00:13:57.424
You want it to be non-clinical?
00:13:57.725 --> 00:13:58.785
You just contact whoever.
00:13:58.806 --> 00:13:59.225
Like, I don't know.
00:13:59.885 --> 00:14:00.806
The thing is that the person
00:14:00.826 --> 00:14:03.668
doesn't even like know what they want.
00:14:03.908 --> 00:14:05.969
So if you don't know what you want, like,
00:14:06.428 --> 00:14:07.048
and you, but you know,
00:14:07.068 --> 00:14:08.470
your skillset and you know,
00:14:08.529 --> 00:14:09.629
like you're looking for, you know,
00:14:09.649 --> 00:14:10.370
a W-two, whatever.
00:14:10.389 --> 00:14:11.530
So there's a lot of things in here.
00:14:12.796 --> 00:14:14.037
You contact local business owners,
00:14:14.076 --> 00:14:15.397
maybe it's healthcare, maybe it's not.
00:14:15.878 --> 00:14:17.038
And you just ask those local
00:14:17.057 --> 00:14:18.599
business owners, those managers,
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:21.380
clinic directors, whoever, like, hey,
00:14:21.421 --> 00:14:23.162
like I'm just, I have this skillset.
00:14:23.201 --> 00:14:24.543
This is my brief background.
00:14:24.663 --> 00:14:26.163
I know you don't really care about that.
00:14:26.543 --> 00:14:27.063
I'm curious,
00:14:27.364 --> 00:14:28.365
what's going on in your world?
00:14:28.404 --> 00:14:29.985
Like what's your biggest challenge?
00:14:30.566 --> 00:14:32.967
What is your biggest burden or issue?
00:14:32.988 --> 00:14:34.788
And then it's like, oh, well,
00:14:34.828 --> 00:14:35.928
couldn't have you tried this?
00:14:35.948 --> 00:14:36.669
Have you tried that?
00:14:36.730 --> 00:14:36.909
Like,
00:14:37.490 --> 00:14:39.150
I actually have some history or
00:14:39.211 --> 00:14:41.413
expertise or skill in this.
00:14:41.572 --> 00:14:42.974
Or, oh, your biggest challenge is,
00:14:42.994 --> 00:14:44.254
you know, I don't know.
00:14:44.274 --> 00:14:45.716
Let's say Jimmy wants to.
00:14:47.015 --> 00:14:47.417
Jimmy,
00:14:47.576 --> 00:14:48.476
what's your biggest challenge you
00:14:48.498 --> 00:14:49.899
have with vestibular first?
00:14:50.158 --> 00:14:51.840
Would you need someone to
00:14:51.899 --> 00:14:53.981
help with the research side,
00:14:54.022 --> 00:14:56.563
the physical product side, the sales side,
00:14:56.923 --> 00:14:57.985
finding prospects?
00:14:58.004 --> 00:14:59.926
All someone has to do is
00:14:59.946 --> 00:15:02.388
just ask questions and see
00:15:02.408 --> 00:15:03.889
if your skill set can help
00:15:03.969 --> 00:15:05.509
solve that problem for
00:15:05.549 --> 00:15:06.530
someone and they'll
00:15:06.571 --> 00:15:07.672
probably pay you for it.
00:15:08.153 --> 00:15:09.975
Yeah, I think, yeah, what Dave said,
00:15:10.095 --> 00:15:11.515
which is go somewhere you'd
00:15:11.696 --> 00:15:12.956
think you'd already want to be,
00:15:13.756 --> 00:15:15.277
or do you know someone you
00:15:15.317 --> 00:15:16.837
really want to be around with, right?
00:15:16.857 --> 00:15:17.398
Because that's what we've
00:15:17.437 --> 00:15:18.879
talked about a lot of times, which is,
00:15:19.770 --> 00:15:21.711
How do you know a job situation is great?
00:15:21.730 --> 00:15:22.511
It's like you get excited
00:15:22.532 --> 00:15:23.532
because of the people you work with.
00:15:23.552 --> 00:15:24.211
A lot of times it really
00:15:24.231 --> 00:15:25.251
doesn't even matter what you're doing.
00:15:25.272 --> 00:15:27.793
It does within, but it's like, hey man,
00:15:27.812 --> 00:15:28.692
I would hang out with you
00:15:28.712 --> 00:15:29.653
guys even if we didn't get paid.
00:15:30.493 --> 00:15:31.913
We don't get paid for this.
00:15:32.653 --> 00:15:33.234
So yes,
00:15:33.594 --> 00:15:37.615
which is people need to unlearn and
00:15:37.654 --> 00:15:38.894
stop reading posts like that.
00:15:38.995 --> 00:15:40.154
Not because I think they're bad,
00:15:40.174 --> 00:15:42.936
but I think it leads to limiting outcomes,
00:15:43.015 --> 00:15:44.155
which is let me just go for...
00:15:45.677 --> 00:15:46.837
a clinically adjacent.
00:15:46.857 --> 00:15:48.440
They're not looking for non-clinical jobs.
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:49.260
They're looking for
00:15:49.321 --> 00:15:50.381
clinically adjacent jobs.
00:15:50.721 --> 00:15:51.363
I need you to start looking
00:15:51.383 --> 00:15:52.725
for a non-clinical job if
00:15:52.745 --> 00:15:53.806
you don't want to be in the clinic.
00:15:54.306 --> 00:15:55.988
Or look for a different clinic.
00:15:56.087 --> 00:15:56.989
Look for a different setting.
00:15:57.669 --> 00:15:59.611
My goal with that new series is to show,
00:15:59.631 --> 00:16:00.293
and I think I'm recording
00:16:00.312 --> 00:16:01.214
another episode today,
00:16:01.614 --> 00:16:03.995
a thousand different models
00:16:04.017 --> 00:16:05.118
that you can provide this thing.
00:16:06.488 --> 00:16:07.068
Yeah.
00:16:07.208 --> 00:16:08.470
And I would say to me,
00:16:08.509 --> 00:16:09.630
that sounds and somebody
00:16:09.671 --> 00:16:11.212
had shared this in one of the comments.
00:16:11.253 --> 00:16:13.075
I think that sounds more
00:16:13.115 --> 00:16:15.797
like the role for a consultant,
00:16:15.836 --> 00:16:17.178
for a project manager.
00:16:17.678 --> 00:16:18.120
You know,
00:16:18.179 --> 00:16:19.841
when when I think of something
00:16:19.881 --> 00:16:21.163
like that and I can relate
00:16:21.202 --> 00:16:23.105
to that person who's writing that post.
00:16:25.030 --> 00:16:27.032
they're looking for a part, air quotes,
00:16:27.091 --> 00:16:29.993
part-time job for, I guess, the stability,
00:16:30.013 --> 00:16:30.953
the consistency,
00:16:31.494 --> 00:16:33.014
but they want the freedom
00:16:33.293 --> 00:16:34.554
of independence and
00:16:34.615 --> 00:16:36.836
consulting and something like that,
00:16:36.855 --> 00:16:37.855
project management.
00:16:38.456 --> 00:16:42.437
So I had shared a post asking the question,
00:16:42.658 --> 00:16:43.999
if you could get thirty
00:16:44.038 --> 00:16:45.198
percent more per year,
00:16:45.239 --> 00:16:47.240
but be a contractor for two or three
00:16:47.779 --> 00:16:50.363
organizations versus take a
00:16:50.442 --> 00:16:51.663
lower salary and be a
00:16:51.724 --> 00:16:53.245
consistent forty hour week
00:16:53.285 --> 00:16:55.227
employee a lot of people
00:16:55.268 --> 00:16:56.469
shared their example of
00:16:56.528 --> 00:16:57.710
they're already doing that
00:16:58.051 --> 00:17:00.773
PRN travel like but with
00:17:00.812 --> 00:17:02.315
that comes a level of
00:17:03.046 --> 00:17:03.145
Okay,
00:17:03.285 --> 00:17:04.586
I'm not going to have the consistency.
00:17:04.626 --> 00:17:05.347
There's going to be some
00:17:05.367 --> 00:17:06.387
weeks where I make nothing.
00:17:06.729 --> 00:17:07.449
There's going to be some
00:17:07.469 --> 00:17:08.730
weeks where I make a ton.
00:17:09.990 --> 00:17:13.732
And I think if I'm answering a job post,
00:17:14.394 --> 00:17:16.035
I'm already at a position
00:17:16.115 --> 00:17:18.777
where I am asking for help.
00:17:18.977 --> 00:17:20.478
I'm the job seeker.
00:17:21.038 --> 00:17:23.079
The employer is solving my problem.
00:17:23.240 --> 00:17:24.601
I have extra hours to sell.
00:17:24.661 --> 00:17:26.061
The employer is buying those
00:17:26.102 --> 00:17:27.182
hours at a discount.
00:17:27.611 --> 00:17:29.771
Whereas if I'm selling
00:17:29.972 --> 00:17:32.314
consultative services, expertise,
00:17:32.953 --> 00:17:35.476
I'm solving the clinic owner's problem,
00:17:35.855 --> 00:17:36.977
they're going to come to me
00:17:37.037 --> 00:17:38.278
expecting to pay a premium.
00:17:38.298 --> 00:17:40.538
And so I think it's a
00:17:40.578 --> 00:17:42.861
mindset shift of there
00:17:42.901 --> 00:17:43.980
probably isn't the job
00:17:44.000 --> 00:17:45.001
you're looking for unless
00:17:45.021 --> 00:17:45.843
you're going to do it for
00:17:46.002 --> 00:17:47.483
twelve or fifteen dollars an hour.
00:17:48.423 --> 00:17:49.285
If you're going to do that,
00:17:49.424 --> 00:17:51.366
you'll get a part-time job somewhere.
00:17:52.449 --> 00:17:54.711
But if you need to make thirty, forty,
00:17:54.750 --> 00:17:56.732
fifty, a hundred dollars an hour,
00:17:56.873 --> 00:17:58.294
you're going to be a consultant,
00:17:58.334 --> 00:17:59.375
you're going to be a coach,
00:17:59.395 --> 00:18:00.436
you're going to be a leader.
00:18:01.377 --> 00:18:02.618
And if you want the freedom,
00:18:02.999 --> 00:18:04.059
then you have to also be
00:18:04.099 --> 00:18:05.721
able to kind of dictate and
00:18:05.761 --> 00:18:06.623
create the schedule.
00:18:07.150 --> 00:18:08.971
Hips and shoulders, right?
00:18:09.111 --> 00:18:09.711
And that's something that
00:18:09.730 --> 00:18:11.211
Jimmy said maybe a few
00:18:11.291 --> 00:18:12.231
weeks ago or months ago.
00:18:12.311 --> 00:18:13.133
Do you remember we covered
00:18:13.153 --> 00:18:14.272
this a little bit, Jimmy?
00:18:14.373 --> 00:18:16.294
And he, so Jimmy, you said something,
00:18:16.854 --> 00:18:17.694
it's one of my favorite
00:18:17.714 --> 00:18:19.296
quotes this whole year on the show.
00:18:19.336 --> 00:18:20.816
It was something around like, yeah,
00:18:20.836 --> 00:18:21.576
it was something around
00:18:21.876 --> 00:18:22.537
someone like this.
00:18:22.576 --> 00:18:23.678
We covered a post similar to
00:18:23.718 --> 00:18:24.458
this a while ago.
00:18:24.897 --> 00:18:26.298
And it was something like, I want this,
00:18:26.338 --> 00:18:27.179
I want this, I want this,
00:18:27.199 --> 00:18:28.339
but I want it on my schedule.
00:18:28.480 --> 00:18:29.099
Do you remember that?
00:18:29.700 --> 00:18:30.941
Maybe, I don't know.
00:18:31.161 --> 00:18:32.980
And anyone that's watching or listening,
00:18:33.000 --> 00:18:34.842
just rewind back to what Tony just said.
00:18:34.922 --> 00:18:36.781
It's like, you have to know, like, are you,
00:18:36.862 --> 00:18:37.521
that's why I'm saying like,
00:18:37.541 --> 00:18:38.642
go solve their problems.
00:18:39.182 --> 00:18:39.722
Ask them what their
00:18:39.762 --> 00:18:40.623
challenges are because
00:18:40.883 --> 00:18:42.002
they'll be more likely to
00:18:42.242 --> 00:18:43.643
pay you like a little bit
00:18:43.682 --> 00:18:45.203
better of a rate or like Tony said,
00:18:45.223 --> 00:18:45.864
a premium rate.
00:18:46.223 --> 00:18:47.364
But if you're reaching out
00:18:47.403 --> 00:18:49.784
to them and they have this, you know,
00:18:49.804 --> 00:18:51.365
these tasks or whatever the, you know,
00:18:51.444 --> 00:18:52.605
whatever the role of the job is,
00:18:53.005 --> 00:18:53.424
then yeah,
00:18:53.444 --> 00:18:54.244
they're going to just base it
00:18:54.285 --> 00:18:55.384
off of like market rate.
00:18:55.404 --> 00:18:56.026
And it's probably going to
00:18:56.046 --> 00:18:58.326
be a lower dollar amount per hour.
00:18:59.266 --> 00:18:59.506
Yeah.
00:18:59.566 --> 00:19:01.207
Hi, Cynthia, watching from Rockwall,
00:19:01.227 --> 00:19:01.548
Texas.
00:19:02.667 --> 00:19:03.388
I said this a couple of
00:19:03.409 --> 00:19:05.029
weeks ago to students when we did,
00:19:05.109 --> 00:19:07.270
I did a live event at Nazareth College.
00:19:07.290 --> 00:19:08.271
We did like a Zoom thing.
00:19:08.711 --> 00:19:10.874
And I've said hips and shoulders.
00:19:10.973 --> 00:19:11.753
Do you remember that?
00:19:11.794 --> 00:19:13.556
It's like the shoulder has
00:19:13.615 --> 00:19:15.396
the most flexibility in any joint,
00:19:15.656 --> 00:19:18.499
but not some stability, but not a ton,
00:19:18.538 --> 00:19:18.739
right?
00:19:18.759 --> 00:19:20.119
So a bunch of flexibility.
00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:21.401
You're a consultant or
00:19:21.421 --> 00:19:22.421
you're a hired gun or
00:19:22.441 --> 00:19:23.501
you're doing whatever you want.
00:19:23.882 --> 00:19:25.182
So there's a lot of mobility,
00:19:25.584 --> 00:19:26.624
but not a lot of stability.
00:19:26.984 --> 00:19:27.484
And a hip,
00:19:27.724 --> 00:19:28.885
the most secure joint in the body.
00:19:29.605 --> 00:19:32.928
Bam, tons of stability, some mobility.
00:19:33.468 --> 00:19:34.548
So nothing says you can't
00:19:34.568 --> 00:19:36.189
have a full-time hip job,
00:19:36.470 --> 00:19:37.410
but then also on the side,
00:19:37.450 --> 00:19:38.309
get a shoulder job.
00:19:38.691 --> 00:19:39.310
And maybe you start with
00:19:39.330 --> 00:19:40.070
that shoulder job as the
00:19:40.131 --> 00:19:41.031
side and it grows.
00:19:41.791 --> 00:19:42.913
But before you look at the
00:19:42.952 --> 00:19:44.313
flexibility and how it gets done,
00:19:45.213 --> 00:19:46.074
decide if these are the
00:19:46.114 --> 00:19:47.234
problems you'd like to solve.
00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:48.859
Decide if these are the
00:19:48.880 --> 00:19:50.141
things you want to get out of bed to do.
00:19:50.500 --> 00:19:51.882
Because look, man,
00:19:52.201 --> 00:19:53.842
I was a PT for two and a half,
00:19:53.882 --> 00:19:54.903
three years after going to
00:19:54.942 --> 00:19:55.762
school for three years.
00:19:56.063 --> 00:19:57.203
That math doesn't math.
00:19:57.544 --> 00:19:58.684
I could still be in the clinic.
00:19:58.964 --> 00:19:59.525
I wouldn't be happy.
00:20:00.005 --> 00:20:00.345
I wouldn't.
00:20:01.105 --> 00:20:02.445
So I lucked out because I
00:20:02.486 --> 00:20:03.547
was able to do something in
00:20:03.567 --> 00:20:04.606
the profession that also
00:20:04.626 --> 00:20:05.507
was like parallel.
00:20:05.606 --> 00:20:06.468
Wasn't really adjacent.
00:20:06.548 --> 00:20:07.268
I didn't just say like,
00:20:07.387 --> 00:20:08.409
where's the realization
00:20:08.429 --> 00:20:10.970
review application.
00:20:11.690 --> 00:20:13.451
But decide what sort of
00:20:13.490 --> 00:20:14.551
thing you want to do and
00:20:14.592 --> 00:20:15.992
then figure out how to do it.
00:20:16.032 --> 00:20:16.894
The last thing I'll say is
00:20:17.213 --> 00:20:18.634
people don't pay you to do stuff.
00:20:18.694 --> 00:20:19.674
People pay you so they don't
00:20:19.714 --> 00:20:21.396
have to do that stuff, right?
00:20:21.497 --> 00:20:24.117
Like I could have replaced my gutters,
00:20:24.198 --> 00:20:25.118
but I paid a company like
00:20:25.259 --> 00:20:26.259
eight hundred or a thousand
00:20:26.299 --> 00:20:27.441
dollars to do it because it
00:20:27.461 --> 00:20:28.441
needed to be done because I
00:20:28.461 --> 00:20:29.541
was going to start to like, you know,
00:20:29.741 --> 00:20:30.762
wood rot or something.
00:20:31.262 --> 00:20:32.064
I could have done it,
00:20:32.544 --> 00:20:33.203
but it would have taken me
00:20:33.243 --> 00:20:34.945
like ten times as much.
00:20:35.006 --> 00:20:36.125
I would have bought way too
00:20:36.145 --> 00:20:37.968
much material and screwed up.
00:20:39.347 --> 00:20:41.049
I paid them not to do my gutters.
00:20:41.730 --> 00:20:43.154
I paid them so I didn't have
00:20:43.174 --> 00:20:43.938
to do my gutters.
00:20:44.239 --> 00:20:46.948
Start to wrap your head around that.
00:20:47.009 --> 00:20:47.892
Yeah, yeah.
00:20:49.286 --> 00:20:51.146
You had said something also
00:20:51.467 --> 00:20:52.988
that I was thinking about,
00:20:53.588 --> 00:20:55.028
but if you guys have another topic,
00:20:55.130 --> 00:20:56.390
I got lost.
00:20:56.470 --> 00:20:57.431
I forget what I was going to say.
00:20:57.471 --> 00:20:57.931
Well,
00:20:57.971 --> 00:20:59.132
I'll talk about the AM conference
00:20:59.152 --> 00:20:59.673
while you think.
00:20:59.692 --> 00:21:00.093
Go ahead.
00:21:00.133 --> 00:21:00.992
Yeah, please.
00:21:01.173 --> 00:21:02.114
Let me just go back to the
00:21:02.153 --> 00:21:03.234
hips and the shoulders thing, right?
00:21:03.255 --> 00:21:04.355
So Jimmy gave the example,
00:21:04.615 --> 00:21:08.298
the hip has less range of motion, right?
00:21:08.337 --> 00:21:09.179
But more stability.
00:21:09.679 --> 00:21:10.619
And then the shoulder has
00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:11.881
more degrees of freedom,
00:21:11.921 --> 00:21:12.820
more range of motion,
00:21:13.321 --> 00:21:14.702
and therefore less stability.
00:21:15.242 --> 00:21:17.044
So let's just put a few words to that.
00:21:19.566 --> 00:21:20.465
the excessive range of
00:21:20.506 --> 00:21:21.747
motion or the freedom of
00:21:21.787 --> 00:21:23.228
the shoulder would be like,
00:21:23.688 --> 00:21:26.849
you have like this PRN job and like,
00:21:28.111 --> 00:21:28.691
but then there's
00:21:28.750 --> 00:21:31.732
instability of your overall hourly.
00:21:31.772 --> 00:21:33.253
Like Tony just said a few minutes ago,
00:21:33.554 --> 00:21:34.474
there might be some weeks
00:21:34.494 --> 00:21:35.134
where you make more,
00:21:35.174 --> 00:21:36.816
some weeks where you make less.
00:21:36.836 --> 00:21:36.876
Uh,
00:21:37.757 --> 00:21:39.417
and then if you want the stability of
00:21:39.458 --> 00:21:41.759
the hip, the fixed salary or a,
00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:43.441
or a fixed salary plus
00:21:43.961 --> 00:21:45.461
whatever productivity, whatever, uh,
00:21:46.124 --> 00:21:47.023
then that might be a little
00:21:47.045 --> 00:21:48.305
bit lower because you're
00:21:48.365 --> 00:21:49.665
banking on the stability
00:21:49.705 --> 00:21:50.807
component of the whole
00:21:50.846 --> 00:21:53.607
dynamic instead of the
00:21:53.688 --> 00:21:54.669
freedom where you can just
00:21:54.709 --> 00:21:56.209
work from home three, four, five,
00:21:56.249 --> 00:21:57.130
whatever days per week.
00:21:57.630 --> 00:21:59.990
So those are the trade-offs.
00:22:00.050 --> 00:22:03.373
There are trade-offs to all this.
00:22:03.393 --> 00:22:04.834
You can have cake or you can eat cake.
00:22:06.222 --> 00:22:07.684
You don't get to have cake and eat cake.
00:22:07.885 --> 00:22:08.727
But how do you eat cake if
00:22:08.767 --> 00:22:09.448
you don't have cake?
00:22:09.567 --> 00:22:12.772
I never understood that analogy.
00:22:12.894 --> 00:22:15.116
Real quick analogy.
00:22:15.136 --> 00:22:17.401
Why do we see videos from the conference,
00:22:17.441 --> 00:22:19.624
Jimmy?
00:22:19.683 --> 00:22:20.025
What's that?
00:22:20.486 --> 00:22:21.426
Where are the lives?
00:22:21.487 --> 00:22:22.567
Why didn't we see videos
00:22:22.606 --> 00:22:23.247
from the conference?
00:22:23.307 --> 00:22:24.728
Yeah, we were doing a lot of recording.
00:22:24.948 --> 00:22:26.588
So I've been helping with
00:22:26.608 --> 00:22:28.670
their podcast and I did, I think,
00:22:28.809 --> 00:22:30.391
nineteen episodes in a day
00:22:30.411 --> 00:22:31.432
and a half or two days.
00:22:31.471 --> 00:22:33.093
So you'll you'll see and hear a lot.
00:22:34.113 --> 00:22:35.673
But we wanted it to, you know,
00:22:35.733 --> 00:22:38.455
like in insufficient Wi-Fi.
00:22:38.635 --> 00:22:39.736
It's not good.
00:22:39.776 --> 00:22:41.237
So I just want the full record way.
00:22:41.777 --> 00:22:43.938
But there's a book that I
00:22:43.958 --> 00:22:44.939
think I'm going to read and
00:22:44.959 --> 00:22:46.319
it's called Member Shift.
00:22:47.252 --> 00:22:48.794
Now, I did take the cheap route,
00:22:48.814 --> 00:22:50.815
which is I went to chat GPT and I said,
00:22:50.855 --> 00:22:51.154
hey,
00:22:51.214 --> 00:22:52.415
pretend you're the author of this
00:22:52.516 --> 00:22:53.875
book and I'm going to ask you questions.
00:22:53.915 --> 00:22:54.997
And I got a lot out of it.
00:22:55.037 --> 00:22:56.076
I got so much out of it that
00:22:56.096 --> 00:22:57.238
I want to read the actual book.
00:22:57.817 --> 00:23:00.118
But what I've noticed over conferences,
00:23:00.179 --> 00:23:04.060
especially like in AAMT or AAMT,
00:23:04.121 --> 00:23:04.862
American Academy of
00:23:04.922 --> 00:23:06.461
Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapists,
00:23:06.823 --> 00:23:07.502
like if you go to their
00:23:07.542 --> 00:23:08.522
conference more than once,
00:23:08.682 --> 00:23:09.763
I went when I was a student
00:23:10.064 --> 00:23:11.184
or maybe I just graduated
00:23:11.204 --> 00:23:12.805
back in twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen.
00:23:12.944 --> 00:23:14.046
And then I went last weekend.
00:23:15.146 --> 00:23:15.846
I saw the same people.
00:23:17.170 --> 00:23:18.210
I saw only the same people
00:23:18.390 --> 00:23:19.411
and that's not a knock on them.
00:23:20.070 --> 00:23:20.911
And those people are
00:23:20.971 --> 00:23:23.771
constantly beating the drum to say, we're,
00:23:24.412 --> 00:23:25.471
we have something of value.
00:23:25.571 --> 00:23:27.492
Come join us, come join us, come join us,
00:23:27.512 --> 00:23:27.952
come join us.
00:23:28.192 --> 00:23:28.833
But I gotta be honest,
00:23:28.853 --> 00:23:30.053
if I were to go there as a
00:23:30.212 --> 00:23:32.453
new grad or someone who was like, okay,
00:23:32.814 --> 00:23:34.574
it's intimidating because there are these,
00:23:34.733 --> 00:23:35.454
so many of these like
00:23:35.494 --> 00:23:36.355
people who've been doing it
00:23:36.394 --> 00:23:38.734
for it doesn't even matter what they do.
00:23:38.976 --> 00:23:40.175
They've been doing it so long.
00:23:40.875 --> 00:23:41.976
And this is the first year
00:23:41.996 --> 00:23:42.695
that I've been recording
00:23:42.736 --> 00:23:43.997
podcasts and videos for them.
00:23:44.116 --> 00:23:46.176
And I've received a lot of good feedback,
00:23:46.196 --> 00:23:47.116
some really great compliments,
00:23:47.136 --> 00:23:48.137
which makes me feel good.
00:23:48.577 --> 00:23:49.998
But I don't think it's necessarily me.
00:23:50.077 --> 00:23:50.917
I think it's the fact that
00:23:51.238 --> 00:23:52.298
they started communicating
00:23:52.439 --> 00:23:53.259
outside of their one
00:23:53.298 --> 00:23:54.858
conference or their town
00:23:54.919 --> 00:23:56.539
halls or their emails,
00:23:57.119 --> 00:23:58.759
which is the lesson is if
00:23:58.779 --> 00:24:00.299
you reach people in places
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:01.280
that you're not reaching them,
00:24:01.540 --> 00:24:02.300
they'll feel welcome.
00:24:03.202 --> 00:24:04.744
This is the basics, right?
00:24:05.065 --> 00:24:06.105
Some people are like, oh my gosh,
00:24:06.125 --> 00:24:06.727
I've been listening to your
00:24:06.747 --> 00:24:08.167
podcast for a couple of students.
00:24:08.868 --> 00:24:09.690
Some of the professors who
00:24:09.730 --> 00:24:10.570
are like leadership in this
00:24:10.611 --> 00:24:11.352
organization brought
00:24:11.392 --> 00:24:13.113
students and they're like, oh yeah,
00:24:13.192 --> 00:24:14.094
I was able to sort of like
00:24:14.375 --> 00:24:15.836
dip a toe and not dive
00:24:15.895 --> 00:24:17.738
right into giving up a weekend.
00:24:18.974 --> 00:24:20.537
or becoming a member to this thing,
00:24:20.678 --> 00:24:21.499
and then the membership's
00:24:21.538 --> 00:24:22.559
going by at ten thousand
00:24:22.579 --> 00:24:23.580
miles an hour because you
00:24:23.601 --> 00:24:24.442
have to remember something.
00:24:25.022 --> 00:24:26.044
A patient who's been at your
00:24:26.084 --> 00:24:28.186
clinic for six months or a
00:24:28.247 --> 00:24:29.087
patient who's been there on
00:24:29.107 --> 00:24:29.828
their first day,
00:24:30.229 --> 00:24:31.590
they're experiencing this differently.
00:24:31.651 --> 00:24:32.771
The same is for members.
00:24:33.032 --> 00:24:34.173
The same is for employees.
00:24:34.994 --> 00:24:35.974
You can't speak to those
00:24:36.015 --> 00:24:37.476
people about the same
00:24:37.536 --> 00:24:38.756
topics in the same way.
00:24:39.115 --> 00:24:40.215
You've got to slow it down
00:24:40.316 --> 00:24:41.797
and break it down, not dumb it down,
00:24:41.896 --> 00:24:42.836
slow it down and break it
00:24:42.876 --> 00:24:43.876
down for people who are on
00:24:43.896 --> 00:24:45.397
their first day and the
00:24:45.438 --> 00:24:46.958
person who's on their ten thousandth day.
00:24:47.298 --> 00:24:48.798
And the juggle is how do you
00:24:48.818 --> 00:24:49.798
do that consistently?
00:24:50.318 --> 00:24:51.659
And that's create content
00:24:51.699 --> 00:24:53.019
for those individual people
00:24:53.039 --> 00:24:53.559
I'm talking about.
00:24:53.779 --> 00:24:54.880
This is why so much effort
00:24:55.500 --> 00:24:57.280
and money goes into onboarding people.
00:24:57.840 --> 00:24:58.721
Because we understand if the
00:24:58.882 --> 00:24:59.943
onboarding experience
00:25:00.223 --> 00:25:02.286
doesn't match expectations, dude,
00:25:02.406 --> 00:25:03.288
this feels sketch.
00:25:03.407 --> 00:25:04.388
I'm going to dip out.
00:25:04.469 --> 00:25:07.051
I feel like the generation
00:25:07.112 --> 00:25:08.433
now that's getting jobs is
00:25:08.493 --> 00:25:10.016
willing to bail faster if
00:25:10.056 --> 00:25:11.116
they don't like the vibes,
00:25:11.478 --> 00:25:12.398
if they get the ick.
00:25:12.439 --> 00:25:14.902
I'm using all of the buzzwords here, kids.
00:25:15.967 --> 00:25:17.147
they're willing to bail and
00:25:17.188 --> 00:25:18.188
that will cost you money.
00:25:18.989 --> 00:25:19.950
So I was looking at AOMT,
00:25:20.009 --> 00:25:22.050
like what could they do better?
00:25:22.230 --> 00:25:23.251
And I think whatever they do
00:25:23.291 --> 00:25:23.971
for those people,
00:25:24.412 --> 00:25:25.093
it wouldn't be the same
00:25:25.113 --> 00:25:26.192
people from twenty sixteen
00:25:26.973 --> 00:25:27.854
to this weekend if they
00:25:27.875 --> 00:25:28.755
didn't do something.
00:25:29.154 --> 00:25:30.195
But they all have a
00:25:30.215 --> 00:25:31.936
strategic goal to grow.
00:25:32.376 --> 00:25:34.959
And I say the answer is slow it down,
00:25:35.278 --> 00:25:36.819
break it down, don't dumb it down,
00:25:36.940 --> 00:25:38.840
but understand who your audience is.
00:25:38.941 --> 00:25:40.201
And I think organizations
00:25:40.241 --> 00:25:41.002
are finally catching up.
00:25:41.363 --> 00:25:42.423
I very rarely have to like
00:25:43.003 --> 00:25:44.244
pitch myself if I'm like
00:25:44.285 --> 00:25:45.445
creating content for people,
00:25:45.826 --> 00:25:46.807
for organizations,
00:25:47.188 --> 00:25:48.608
I really rarely need to be like, okay,
00:25:48.628 --> 00:25:49.930
so here's why you need to create.
00:25:49.970 --> 00:25:50.570
They're past that.
00:25:50.730 --> 00:25:51.612
I think it's twenty twenty four.
00:25:51.632 --> 00:25:52.451
They're like, yeah,
00:25:52.491 --> 00:25:53.292
everything's everywhere.
00:25:53.333 --> 00:25:54.233
How come we don't have that?
00:25:54.273 --> 00:25:54.733
I'm like, well,
00:25:55.174 --> 00:25:56.496
the best time to plant a
00:25:56.536 --> 00:25:57.717
tree for shade was twenty
00:25:57.737 --> 00:25:58.538
years ago and the second
00:25:58.557 --> 00:25:59.417
best times right now.
00:26:00.479 --> 00:26:02.038
And the final thing I'll say
00:26:02.058 --> 00:26:04.140
about this is the expectation setting.
00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:05.640
You guys dropping three
00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:06.961
episodes of a podcast or
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:08.421
five videos isn't going to
00:26:08.441 --> 00:26:09.421
get it done because the
00:26:09.520 --> 00:26:11.201
world is moving at the speed of swipe.
00:26:11.501 --> 00:26:13.201
So table stakes now.
00:26:13.782 --> 00:26:15.222
I think, I mean, I feel pretty confident.
00:26:15.282 --> 00:26:16.282
If you're an organization of
00:26:16.343 --> 00:26:17.344
more than a hundred people,
00:26:17.723 --> 00:26:19.423
table stakes is creating
00:26:19.463 --> 00:26:20.723
video content or audio
00:26:20.763 --> 00:26:22.005
content and social content
00:26:22.025 --> 00:26:22.805
on a regular basis.
00:26:23.005 --> 00:26:23.924
What are your thoughts on that?
00:26:24.025 --> 00:26:26.066
To me, that's table stakes.
00:26:26.086 --> 00:26:26.605
Dave?
00:26:28.337 --> 00:26:28.837
Yeah.
00:26:28.857 --> 00:26:29.357
Need to be doing it.
00:26:29.417 --> 00:26:29.878
Absolutely.
00:26:29.919 --> 00:26:30.278
Why not?
00:26:31.558 --> 00:26:31.679
Dave,
00:26:31.759 --> 00:26:35.279
what's your like content generation
00:26:35.400 --> 00:26:37.280
framework or model or do
00:26:37.300 --> 00:26:38.661
you have any like specific
00:26:38.701 --> 00:26:40.362
goals or things that you try to do?
00:26:41.201 --> 00:26:42.403
You've got the YouTube channel,
00:26:42.423 --> 00:26:43.462
the LinkedIn, you know,
00:26:43.482 --> 00:26:45.223
you're in multiple places, Twitter.
00:26:46.943 --> 00:26:48.505
How do you approach content
00:26:48.525 --> 00:26:50.085
generation to get the word
00:26:50.164 --> 00:26:50.944
out about either your
00:26:50.984 --> 00:26:52.986
practice or what you're doing?
00:26:55.299 --> 00:26:55.440
Uh,
00:26:55.500 --> 00:26:56.901
it's kind of like a praying spray model.
00:26:56.921 --> 00:26:58.481
Uh, you know,
00:26:58.501 --> 00:26:59.722
just like I've been on a
00:26:59.742 --> 00:27:00.544
bunch of these platforms.
00:27:00.663 --> 00:27:02.085
I think I,
00:27:02.384 --> 00:27:06.086
I do need to delegate an outsource, uh,
00:27:06.307 --> 00:27:08.169
starting in a week or two.
00:27:08.608 --> 00:27:09.210
Uh, we're going to,
00:27:09.390 --> 00:27:10.150
my wife and I were going to
00:27:10.170 --> 00:27:11.810
be hiring and starting with
00:27:11.851 --> 00:27:13.372
our first cleaning person here.
00:27:13.511 --> 00:27:14.472
I cannot wait.
00:27:14.893 --> 00:27:15.794
So in our, in our place,
00:27:15.814 --> 00:27:17.174
in our apartment cannot wait.
00:27:17.234 --> 00:27:20.596
So I also need to, uh, delegate the actual,
00:27:21.037 --> 00:27:23.318
like the actual physical posting
00:27:23.578 --> 00:27:24.579
Of the post now,
00:27:24.599 --> 00:27:25.580
because you can't schedule
00:27:25.621 --> 00:27:26.942
on Facebook and you can't
00:27:26.982 --> 00:27:29.144
schedule posts on some platforms, Twitter,
00:27:29.164 --> 00:27:30.445
you can LinkedIn, you can,
00:27:30.465 --> 00:27:32.208
but arguably the post gets
00:27:32.228 --> 00:27:33.048
throttled down because they
00:27:33.068 --> 00:27:34.349
know it's like an artificial post.
00:27:34.990 --> 00:27:38.614
So my my content strategy is like also,
00:27:39.275 --> 00:27:40.596
I mean, frequency is important.
00:27:41.396 --> 00:27:42.578
But then we talked about it
00:27:42.618 --> 00:27:43.680
recently in the past week or two.
00:27:43.720 --> 00:27:45.402
Like, I just, I don't know,
00:27:45.422 --> 00:27:46.343
like we've been around
00:27:46.363 --> 00:27:47.243
enough with social media.
00:27:47.284 --> 00:27:48.105
Like we kind of know what's
00:27:48.144 --> 00:27:49.346
going to get attention.
00:27:50.347 --> 00:27:51.549
So even like, I don't know if you saw,
00:27:51.569 --> 00:27:53.050
like I posted our business card.
00:27:53.070 --> 00:27:54.093
Did you see this post on
00:27:54.173 --> 00:27:55.134
Facebook or LinkedIn?
00:27:55.173 --> 00:27:55.694
No.
00:27:56.505 --> 00:27:57.904
So I posted like a digital
00:27:57.944 --> 00:27:59.065
image of our business card
00:27:59.486 --> 00:28:00.726
and it's a little, you know, it's busy.
00:28:00.766 --> 00:28:01.726
It's got like a lot of extra
00:28:01.766 --> 00:28:02.665
words and you know,
00:28:02.685 --> 00:28:04.226
the treatments and I got a ton of,
00:28:04.546 --> 00:28:06.047
it says like, hey, therapy colleagues,
00:28:06.067 --> 00:28:06.666
can you give me some
00:28:06.686 --> 00:28:08.906
feedback on our business card?
00:28:09.366 --> 00:28:10.547
Something like that, question mark,
00:28:10.586 --> 00:28:12.448
you know?
00:28:12.728 --> 00:28:13.367
And you know,
00:28:13.428 --> 00:28:14.508
it's got a lot of words on it.
00:28:14.528 --> 00:28:16.888
It's got, you know, neuro rehab,
00:28:16.949 --> 00:28:18.888
sports medicine, you know, whatever,
00:28:18.989 --> 00:28:20.689
joint, muscle, bone, tendon,
00:28:20.828 --> 00:28:21.929
like just too many things
00:28:21.969 --> 00:28:23.390
and the treatments, like I got feedback,
00:28:23.430 --> 00:28:24.250
treatments should be on the back,
00:28:24.269 --> 00:28:24.529
whatever.
00:28:25.369 --> 00:28:26.352
The whole point of it, though,
00:28:26.491 --> 00:28:28.816
is I knew it was going to get comments.
00:28:29.436 --> 00:28:30.659
I even got one negative
00:28:30.679 --> 00:28:31.539
comment on Facebook.
00:28:31.780 --> 00:28:32.501
We don't have to pull it up,
00:28:32.541 --> 00:28:35.205
but someone was like, you know,
00:28:35.226 --> 00:28:35.846
I don't even know if this
00:28:36.127 --> 00:28:36.929
guy's a practice owner,
00:28:36.969 --> 00:28:38.372
but the negative comment was like,
00:28:39.670 --> 00:28:40.089
Hey,
00:28:40.150 --> 00:28:41.510
if it's that hard to sell concierge
00:28:41.550 --> 00:28:41.951
services,
00:28:41.971 --> 00:28:42.811
then I think you need to like
00:28:42.852 --> 00:28:43.711
take insurance or get
00:28:43.731 --> 00:28:44.632
better referrals or get
00:28:44.652 --> 00:28:45.492
better patients or whatever.
00:28:45.512 --> 00:28:48.074
And I was like, Oh wow.
00:28:48.094 --> 00:28:50.154
I was like, so I chirped back a little bit,
00:28:50.194 --> 00:28:51.435
but anyway, the, uh,
00:28:51.516 --> 00:28:52.096
are you pulling it up?
00:28:52.135 --> 00:28:52.556
There we go.
00:28:53.076 --> 00:28:54.436
So yeah, there are all these, can I,
00:28:54.477 --> 00:28:55.518
can I get some feedback on
00:28:55.557 --> 00:28:56.377
this business card?
00:28:56.417 --> 00:28:57.679
It's a little busy, right?
00:28:58.419 --> 00:29:00.460
So I welcomed feedback.
00:29:00.579 --> 00:29:02.181
I'm, you know, putting myself out there.
00:29:02.981 --> 00:29:03.142
Um,
00:29:04.021 --> 00:29:05.522
we have printed this one but
00:29:05.564 --> 00:29:06.624
you know like I got a ton
00:29:06.644 --> 00:29:07.965
of feedback there's no qr
00:29:07.986 --> 00:29:09.227
code there's too much black
00:29:09.507 --> 00:29:10.647
there's too much words put
00:29:10.708 --> 00:29:11.628
the treatments on the back
00:29:11.689 --> 00:29:13.049
side remove the treatments
00:29:13.711 --> 00:29:16.353
um I knew guys I don't know
00:29:16.373 --> 00:29:17.974
if you realize this you
00:29:18.115 --> 00:29:18.996
you're both smart enough to
00:29:19.016 --> 00:29:20.477
realize this I put this out
00:29:20.497 --> 00:29:21.978
there because I know what's
00:29:21.998 --> 00:29:22.999
going to get comments and
00:29:23.038 --> 00:29:24.500
engagement and some people
00:29:24.519 --> 00:29:25.161
are going to be like oh
00:29:25.201 --> 00:29:26.281
here's what mine looks like
00:29:26.883 --> 00:29:28.044
and everyone believes that
00:29:28.064 --> 00:29:28.903
they're right and
00:29:29.644 --> 00:29:29.904
you know,
00:29:30.306 --> 00:29:31.646
my feedback is the best and
00:29:31.686 --> 00:29:32.586
here's my insight and
00:29:32.606 --> 00:29:33.327
here's my experience.
00:29:33.387 --> 00:29:33.907
I would change this.
00:29:33.968 --> 00:29:34.409
I would change this.
00:29:34.469 --> 00:29:34.929
I would change this.
00:29:34.969 --> 00:29:37.330
Now I actually got real feedback,
00:29:37.351 --> 00:29:39.011
but my content approach is
00:29:40.173 --> 00:29:41.133
putting things out there
00:29:41.933 --> 00:29:43.714
that I assume are going to
00:29:43.734 --> 00:29:44.615
catch some attention.
00:29:44.655 --> 00:29:45.517
It's going to be different
00:29:45.576 --> 00:29:46.557
than what you're seeing in
00:29:46.597 --> 00:29:48.878
the algorithm when you're scrolling.
00:29:50.279 --> 00:29:51.621
And so a lot of this, as you know,
00:29:51.661 --> 00:29:52.981
is kind of historically has
00:29:53.001 --> 00:29:55.703
been around partnering and, you know,
00:29:55.723 --> 00:29:56.825
trying to buy practices and
00:29:56.884 --> 00:29:57.865
the Dave Kittle show and all that.
00:29:58.972 --> 00:29:59.853
And then also now recently
00:29:59.873 --> 00:30:00.532
I've been posting a little
00:30:00.553 --> 00:30:01.493
bit more of the hiring
00:30:01.534 --> 00:30:03.574
stuff and selfies with
00:30:03.614 --> 00:30:05.835
patients and clients and all that.
00:30:05.954 --> 00:30:07.015
So I want to show,
00:30:07.976 --> 00:30:08.816
just like a lot of other
00:30:08.855 --> 00:30:10.135
successful practices out there,
00:30:10.195 --> 00:30:11.416
I want to show what it's
00:30:11.497 --> 00:30:12.757
like to be a therapist with us.
00:30:12.997 --> 00:30:13.936
So like Josh Funk,
00:30:14.317 --> 00:30:15.438
who was on my show before,
00:30:16.038 --> 00:30:17.417
I think he just opened his
00:30:17.458 --> 00:30:18.258
eleventh clinic or
00:30:18.298 --> 00:30:20.578
something in the DMV area.
00:30:20.598 --> 00:30:21.858
He's doing incredible.
00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:25.220
He puts out a lot of content
00:30:25.901 --> 00:30:26.621
showing like what the
00:30:26.641 --> 00:30:27.760
therapists are doing, you know,
00:30:27.820 --> 00:30:29.061
treatment wise or showing
00:30:29.142 --> 00:30:30.362
exercises or drills.
00:30:31.502 --> 00:30:33.722
And we all think like that's
00:30:33.742 --> 00:30:34.763
just to attract patients.
00:30:34.804 --> 00:30:34.983
Right.
00:30:35.023 --> 00:30:36.923
And he's like, not really.
00:30:36.983 --> 00:30:38.085
It's actually to attract the
00:30:38.144 --> 00:30:38.944
right therapist.
00:30:39.305 --> 00:30:40.546
And I was like, oh, my gosh.
00:30:40.586 --> 00:30:42.885
So in the next, you know,
00:30:42.986 --> 00:30:43.987
six months or so.
00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:46.079
You're definitely going to
00:30:46.099 --> 00:30:48.181
see more of that from us, from me,
00:30:48.260 --> 00:30:50.001
from my team, whatever, delegating it,
00:30:50.843 --> 00:30:52.722
putting out content like Tony is, like,
00:30:52.863 --> 00:30:53.644
you know,
00:30:53.663 --> 00:30:55.285
your patients on the Biodex treadmill,
00:30:55.305 --> 00:30:56.045
you're strapping them up to
00:30:56.065 --> 00:30:56.924
the overhead harness.
00:30:57.464 --> 00:30:58.125
So we're going to be putting
00:30:58.306 --> 00:30:59.066
all that out there
00:30:59.866 --> 00:31:02.688
organically on Facebook, LinkedIn,
00:31:02.708 --> 00:31:03.127
Twitter.
00:31:04.098 --> 00:31:05.278
maybe start another YouTube channel,
00:31:05.298 --> 00:31:05.880
but I mean, I need,
00:31:05.960 --> 00:31:06.880
I need help to do all that.
00:31:06.920 --> 00:31:07.140
Right.
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:08.220
So those,
00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:09.721
that's my content strategy is
00:31:09.740 --> 00:31:10.881
like putting a lot out
00:31:10.901 --> 00:31:11.701
there at the same time.
00:31:11.740 --> 00:31:12.661
Now we're running Facebook
00:31:12.780 --> 00:31:14.122
ads for the patient facing
00:31:14.182 --> 00:31:15.541
practice for concierge pain relief.
00:31:15.582 --> 00:31:17.123
I have that guy, Joe Lowell,
00:31:17.143 --> 00:31:18.883
who reached out to run Facebook ads.
00:31:19.323 --> 00:31:20.003
That's interesting.
00:31:20.044 --> 00:31:22.023
We could talk about, but anyway, that's,
00:31:22.763 --> 00:31:24.224
that's a lot of my approach
00:31:24.244 --> 00:31:24.884
with social media.
00:31:25.566 --> 00:31:26.366
Yeah,
00:31:26.606 --> 00:31:28.208
but I think you're less pray and spray,
00:31:28.387 --> 00:31:28.607
right?
00:31:28.667 --> 00:31:29.749
Because you're testing things.
00:31:29.808 --> 00:31:30.710
Pray and spray would just be
00:31:30.730 --> 00:31:32.932
like continually just do
00:31:32.991 --> 00:31:35.032
more and different and not
00:31:35.113 --> 00:31:36.054
look at what's working and
00:31:36.074 --> 00:31:36.775
what's not working.
00:31:37.115 --> 00:31:38.415
And you don't do that.
00:31:38.695 --> 00:31:39.717
You pay attention to what is
00:31:39.737 --> 00:31:40.337
and isn't working.
00:31:40.738 --> 00:31:42.578
And you also put thought into it.
00:31:42.878 --> 00:31:43.019
I mean,
00:31:43.039 --> 00:31:44.181
I've worked for places who are like,
00:31:45.066 --> 00:31:45.626
they would turn to the
00:31:45.666 --> 00:31:46.867
social media team and be like,
00:31:46.887 --> 00:31:47.489
do this now.
00:31:47.709 --> 00:31:48.210
And they're like, dude,
00:31:48.230 --> 00:31:49.070
you don't understand.
00:31:49.872 --> 00:31:50.993
This isn't rocket science,
00:31:51.034 --> 00:31:52.255
but you're all over the
00:31:52.295 --> 00:31:53.175
place and I can't even
00:31:53.215 --> 00:31:54.478
follow what I'm supposed to be doing.
00:31:54.919 --> 00:31:55.900
So I've actually in the last
00:31:56.259 --> 00:31:57.402
five or six months probably
00:31:57.442 --> 00:31:59.324
done less and had the same,
00:31:59.364 --> 00:32:01.046
if not better results by doing less.
00:32:01.606 --> 00:32:02.448
because the the eighty
00:32:02.468 --> 00:32:04.189
twenty rule applies.
00:32:04.648 --> 00:32:04.769
Right.
00:32:04.788 --> 00:32:05.449
You guys are familiar with
00:32:05.469 --> 00:32:06.470
the eighty twenty rule, right?
00:32:07.309 --> 00:32:08.010
Twenty percent of your
00:32:08.070 --> 00:32:09.030
efforts get eighty percent
00:32:09.050 --> 00:32:10.511
of your results and then you flip it.
00:32:11.012 --> 00:32:11.633
Eighty percent of your
00:32:11.673 --> 00:32:12.673
results get twenty percent
00:32:12.693 --> 00:32:13.054
of your efforts.
00:32:13.094 --> 00:32:13.473
This is why,
00:32:13.493 --> 00:32:15.895
like Tim Ferriss is for our work week.
00:32:16.596 --> 00:32:18.336
is you know number one a
00:32:18.356 --> 00:32:19.157
best-selling book but
00:32:19.198 --> 00:32:20.838
number two like if you
00:32:20.898 --> 00:32:21.859
focused on that twenty
00:32:21.900 --> 00:32:22.880
percent that got the eighty
00:32:22.900 --> 00:32:24.882
percent results you do less
00:32:24.922 --> 00:32:26.163
but get more and then you'd
00:32:26.182 --> 00:32:27.123
have more time to think
00:32:27.163 --> 00:32:29.164
about what else can go into
00:32:29.184 --> 00:32:30.346
that but here here's the
00:32:30.385 --> 00:32:31.425
funny part let me know if
00:32:31.465 --> 00:32:32.547
you guys think this is true
00:32:32.606 --> 00:32:34.307
it's it's true for me have
00:32:34.327 --> 00:32:34.888
I ever talked about
00:32:34.949 --> 00:32:36.230
disney's low ride out
00:32:36.250 --> 00:32:37.490
theory with you guys before
00:32:38.391 --> 00:32:39.392
so Disney's low ride out,
00:32:39.632 --> 00:32:40.731
like you've been to Disney world,
00:32:40.751 --> 00:32:41.712
you pay one price and you
00:32:41.752 --> 00:32:43.114
go into it then.
00:32:43.534 --> 00:32:45.414
So every ride's free, right?
00:32:45.974 --> 00:32:47.395
Then why at every ride,
00:32:47.435 --> 00:32:48.376
does it have that three
00:32:48.416 --> 00:32:50.438
pronged turn styley thing?
00:32:50.617 --> 00:32:51.479
Why is that there?
00:32:52.058 --> 00:32:53.640
Well, that's a counter, right?
00:32:53.660 --> 00:32:54.759
That's counting who rides,
00:32:54.800 --> 00:32:55.421
what rides we know,
00:32:55.441 --> 00:32:56.721
how many people came in and
00:32:56.741 --> 00:32:58.162
we know how many times ride got rides,
00:32:58.201 --> 00:33:00.003
got ridden rides, got ridden.
00:33:00.084 --> 00:33:01.443
PTs got burned out, burnt out.
00:33:01.964 --> 00:33:02.065
Um,
00:33:03.205 --> 00:33:05.386
You're doing market research in person.
00:33:06.268 --> 00:33:07.489
You're voting with your time.
00:33:08.009 --> 00:33:09.450
Because Disney only has so
00:33:09.470 --> 00:33:10.830
many acres in Florida,
00:33:11.510 --> 00:33:12.951
if they want to put a new ride in,
00:33:12.991 --> 00:33:15.073
if that new Star Wars ride wants to go in,
00:33:15.452 --> 00:33:16.394
something's got to go.
00:33:16.973 --> 00:33:18.615
So they could do market surveys.
00:33:18.734 --> 00:33:19.596
Oh,
00:33:19.736 --> 00:33:23.218
which ride did you like the most and
00:33:23.278 --> 00:33:23.577
least?
00:33:24.138 --> 00:33:25.680
But nostalgia would play a part.
00:33:25.759 --> 00:33:27.560
No, don't get rid of teacups.
00:33:27.961 --> 00:33:29.082
That's our favorite ride.
00:33:29.622 --> 00:33:31.583
But the lowest ride and the
00:33:31.643 --> 00:33:35.044
count is out because if we
00:33:35.084 --> 00:33:36.963
don't start replacing some of this,
00:33:37.084 --> 00:33:40.825
we're going to stagnate.
00:33:40.964 --> 00:33:41.925
We're going to be old.
00:33:42.526 --> 00:33:44.286
So the idea is whatever you're doing,
00:33:44.326 --> 00:33:45.247
you only have a finite
00:33:45.267 --> 00:33:46.406
amount of time like Disney
00:33:46.446 --> 00:33:47.267
did real estate.
00:33:47.606 --> 00:33:48.968
Whatever efforts you're doing,
00:33:49.008 --> 00:33:50.147
it's finite unless you
00:33:50.167 --> 00:33:51.028
start hiring people.
00:33:51.087 --> 00:33:51.828
But then you need to manage
00:33:51.848 --> 00:33:52.489
those people and that's
00:33:52.509 --> 00:33:53.989
part of your tasks, right?
00:33:54.388 --> 00:33:56.150
So pay attention to that twenty percent.
00:33:56.769 --> 00:33:57.750
actually is the twenty
00:33:57.770 --> 00:33:58.451
percent of stuff that
00:33:58.491 --> 00:33:59.752
brings the eighty percent results.
00:34:00.073 --> 00:34:00.973
And sometimes you might have
00:34:00.993 --> 00:34:03.736
to kick some things out or delegate them,
00:34:04.115 --> 00:34:04.317
right?
00:34:04.436 --> 00:34:05.136
Pay for that.
00:34:05.196 --> 00:34:06.377
And that if you have the
00:34:06.417 --> 00:34:07.519
resources to do that.
00:34:07.920 --> 00:34:09.240
So I think paying attention
00:34:09.260 --> 00:34:10.282
to those things is simple,
00:34:10.961 --> 00:34:12.123
but it's emotional because
00:34:12.163 --> 00:34:13.164
now I do this and this has
00:34:13.224 --> 00:34:14.025
always been what I do.
00:34:14.045 --> 00:34:15.025
This is how I do this.
00:34:15.545 --> 00:34:17.126
So getting over the emotion
00:34:18.548 --> 00:34:19.449
of being able to kick some
00:34:19.469 --> 00:34:20.090
of those things out.
00:34:20.788 --> 00:34:21.927
Let's talk about that.
00:34:21.947 --> 00:34:23.128
And I don't remember if it
00:34:23.148 --> 00:34:25.530
was the podcast you mentioned,
00:34:25.570 --> 00:34:27.690
the Corner Office podcast,
00:34:27.809 --> 00:34:29.311
or if it was Greg Eisenberg.
00:34:30.210 --> 00:34:31.472
But they were talking.
00:34:31.711 --> 00:34:32.731
I turned my volume down.
00:34:32.791 --> 00:34:33.612
I don't know why we're still
00:34:33.632 --> 00:34:34.432
getting feedback.
00:34:34.452 --> 00:34:34.893
I don't know.
00:34:36.269 --> 00:34:38.771
they were talking about AI,
00:34:39.112 --> 00:34:40.532
about facial recognition,
00:34:40.572 --> 00:34:41.974
about artificial intelligence.
00:34:41.994 --> 00:34:43.856
They were talking about retail stores,
00:34:44.476 --> 00:34:46.559
where what if you had a
00:34:46.619 --> 00:34:49.141
retail store where the customer came in,
00:34:49.762 --> 00:34:50.461
you had a facial
00:34:50.501 --> 00:34:52.143
recognition system in place,
00:34:52.164 --> 00:34:53.565
so you recognize the customer.
00:34:53.625 --> 00:34:56.668
And even if you anonymize the information,
00:34:57.288 --> 00:34:59.572
but you know customer A, customer B,
00:34:59.612 --> 00:35:00.313
customer C,
00:35:00.735 --> 00:35:02.137
you track them through the store,
00:35:02.197 --> 00:35:03.039
you find areas of
00:35:03.099 --> 00:35:04.521
congestion within the store,
00:35:04.561 --> 00:35:05.623
you find where people are
00:35:05.664 --> 00:35:06.766
buying things in the store,
00:35:06.846 --> 00:35:08.268
not buying things in the store, and you
00:35:09.143 --> 00:35:11.065
you change the layout of the store.
00:35:11.485 --> 00:35:12.746
I was talking to my son last
00:35:12.806 --> 00:35:14.188
night and we were like,
00:35:14.849 --> 00:35:16.590
why don't we have facial
00:35:16.630 --> 00:35:19.253
recognition in EMRs right now?
00:35:20.193 --> 00:35:21.715
I was sitting in the clinic.
00:35:21.755 --> 00:35:24.717
So my PTA is at, he's in Pittsburgh.
00:35:24.757 --> 00:35:25.818
He was watching the Steelers
00:35:25.838 --> 00:35:26.699
game last night.
00:35:27.280 --> 00:35:28.922
I stepped in to take over
00:35:28.942 --> 00:35:30.402
his caseload yesterday and today.
00:35:31.043 --> 00:35:31.885
There were patients that
00:35:31.905 --> 00:35:34.246
came in that I have no idea who they are.
00:35:34.907 --> 00:35:36.088
I know their patients,
00:35:36.369 --> 00:35:38.190
but I can't quite tell.
00:35:38.231 --> 00:35:39.532
And I'm embarrassed to say,
00:35:39.592 --> 00:35:40.052
what's your name?
00:35:40.072 --> 00:35:40.994
Because they know me because
00:35:41.034 --> 00:35:42.215
I did their evaluation.
00:35:43.016 --> 00:35:45.759
And so usually I will go into the EMR.
00:35:45.778 --> 00:35:46.920
I'll pull up the copy of the
00:35:46.940 --> 00:35:47.721
driver's license.
00:35:47.740 --> 00:35:48.742
I'll look at the face on the
00:35:48.762 --> 00:35:49.702
driver's license and
00:35:49.742 --> 00:35:50.704
compare it to the face of
00:35:50.744 --> 00:35:51.644
the person in front of me.
00:35:52.224 --> 00:35:53.505
and I'll figure out who this is.
00:35:54.126 --> 00:35:56.489
But from a facial recognition perspective,
00:35:56.528 --> 00:35:57.831
and I know it's a little freaky,
00:35:58.831 --> 00:36:00.512
think of where this could go.
00:36:00.693 --> 00:36:02.215
Okay, so coming in the door,
00:36:02.335 --> 00:36:03.876
facial recognition pulls up
00:36:03.896 --> 00:36:04.637
the patient chart.
00:36:05.338 --> 00:36:07.099
The ambient listening,
00:36:07.119 --> 00:36:08.340
which we already have,
00:36:08.840 --> 00:36:11.163
records and hears the conversation of,
00:36:11.222 --> 00:36:12.003
hey, how'd you do?
00:36:12.043 --> 00:36:12.824
How was the weekend?
00:36:12.864 --> 00:36:14.005
How'd you feel with your sit
00:36:14.025 --> 00:36:15.447
to stands and other things?
00:36:16.068 --> 00:36:16.228
It's
00:36:16.851 --> 00:36:17.992
It's listening to the
00:36:18.032 --> 00:36:19.132
patient's conversation.
00:36:19.193 --> 00:36:20.333
It's creating the clinical
00:36:20.373 --> 00:36:22.275
documentation based on what is said,
00:36:22.695 --> 00:36:23.916
based on the history in the
00:36:23.956 --> 00:36:26.317
medical record that's already in the EMR.
00:36:26.996 --> 00:36:28.257
And then if we had this kind
00:36:28.297 --> 00:36:29.257
of tracking system,
00:36:29.318 --> 00:36:30.559
which there were versions
00:36:30.619 --> 00:36:31.940
of this for twenty years,
00:36:32.179 --> 00:36:34.001
like the little barcode on
00:36:34.041 --> 00:36:35.001
your gym membership,
00:36:35.041 --> 00:36:36.981
you swipe it when you come into the gym,
00:36:37.061 --> 00:36:38.222
they know you're there.
00:36:39.402 --> 00:36:41.143
But the video surveillance where it's like,
00:36:41.184 --> 00:36:41.465
okay,
00:36:41.505 --> 00:36:42.824
now patient A is sitting on the
00:36:42.864 --> 00:36:43.545
recumbent bike.
00:36:43.565 --> 00:36:44.585
They did ten minutes.
00:36:44.626 --> 00:36:46.027
They said this after they
00:36:46.047 --> 00:36:46.847
got off the bike.
00:36:47.407 --> 00:36:47.608
Like,
00:36:48.289 --> 00:36:49.829
is that the future of clinical
00:36:49.869 --> 00:36:50.730
documentation?
00:36:51.289 --> 00:36:51.590
I think so.
00:36:51.610 --> 00:36:53.030
To summarize all that,
00:36:53.192 --> 00:36:55.873
literally taking all of the, you know,
00:36:55.932 --> 00:36:57.193
time off the clinician's
00:36:57.213 --> 00:36:59.494
shoulders because that information,
00:36:59.514 --> 00:37:00.695
that data is there and it
00:37:00.715 --> 00:37:01.757
can be captured with the
00:37:01.777 --> 00:37:04.038
technology we have today.
00:37:04.057 --> 00:37:04.938
What do you guys think about
00:37:04.998 --> 00:37:05.619
something like that?
00:37:06.005 --> 00:37:06.947
I was helping to put on a
00:37:07.007 --> 00:37:08.027
conference and this is like
00:37:08.108 --> 00:37:09.309
four or five years ago.
00:37:09.731 --> 00:37:11.893
And this was the crazy idea back then.
00:37:11.974 --> 00:37:12.835
Cause I couldn't even wrap
00:37:12.875 --> 00:37:14.056
my head around artificial
00:37:14.077 --> 00:37:15.639
intelligence or facial recognition.
00:37:15.998 --> 00:37:17.320
Cause again, it was five or six years ago.
00:37:17.420 --> 00:37:18.302
That's how far we've come.
00:37:18.483 --> 00:37:19.204
Now it's commonplace.
00:37:19.264 --> 00:37:20.565
Now that's how I unlock my phone.
00:37:20.585 --> 00:37:20.766
Yeah.
00:37:20.786 --> 00:37:20.865
Yeah.
00:37:22.128 --> 00:37:23.528
The cool part about this
00:37:23.588 --> 00:37:24.730
conference was you had to
00:37:24.750 --> 00:37:26.710
pay a lot of money for this.
00:37:27.110 --> 00:37:28.931
As you walked into the conference,
00:37:28.952 --> 00:37:30.572
you're walking down this runway.
00:37:31.213 --> 00:37:32.094
It had this cool,
00:37:32.273 --> 00:37:34.635
almost like a marathon finish line,
00:37:35.135 --> 00:37:37.157
like an arch.
00:37:37.697 --> 00:37:38.697
that you'd walk towards.
00:37:38.717 --> 00:37:39.938
And it was all digital readouts.
00:37:39.958 --> 00:37:41.420
They were just TV screens, right?
00:37:41.800 --> 00:37:44.224
But, fifty yards before that, sorry,
00:37:44.304 --> 00:37:45.405
a hundred yards before that
00:37:45.425 --> 00:37:46.445
is when you got your badge
00:37:46.626 --> 00:37:49.548
with a giant QR code on both sides,
00:37:49.949 --> 00:37:50.150
right?
00:37:50.449 --> 00:37:50.610
Then,
00:37:50.750 --> 00:37:53.293
fifty yards before the archway was a
00:37:53.413 --> 00:37:53.753
reader
00:37:54.673 --> 00:37:55.514
that was just constantly
00:37:55.554 --> 00:37:56.516
scanning QR codes.
00:37:56.775 --> 00:37:58.177
So by the time you walked through the arch,
00:37:58.217 --> 00:37:59.597
it was like, welcome Jimmy.
00:37:59.978 --> 00:38:00.818
Thanks for coming all the
00:38:00.838 --> 00:38:02.721
way from New York to McKay
00:38:02.740 --> 00:38:03.601
from this company.
00:38:03.641 --> 00:38:03.842
Like,
00:38:03.922 --> 00:38:05.262
and like your picture would flash up
00:38:05.282 --> 00:38:06.164
there and whatever.
00:38:06.463 --> 00:38:07.625
So it was like marking who
00:38:07.664 --> 00:38:08.565
you were to make that
00:38:08.626 --> 00:38:09.867
personalized walk through
00:38:09.887 --> 00:38:10.907
the arch experience.
00:38:11.447 --> 00:38:13.429
Dude, that was like six years ago.
00:38:13.509 --> 00:38:15.108
And I'm still like talking about that.
00:38:15.409 --> 00:38:16.269
But would you even need the
00:38:16.289 --> 00:38:17.489
QR code reader anymore?
00:38:17.670 --> 00:38:18.851
Would it just like, you know,
00:38:19.210 --> 00:38:21.110
scan my face and do the exact same thing?
00:38:21.570 --> 00:38:22.911
Could you customize the
00:38:22.972 --> 00:38:25.393
experience for every single
00:38:25.612 --> 00:38:26.913
person who walks through the door?
00:38:27.233 --> 00:38:28.114
The people who figure out
00:38:28.134 --> 00:38:30.914
how to do that first, best,
00:38:31.014 --> 00:38:32.735
cheapest are going to be
00:38:32.775 --> 00:38:34.076
the ones who win.
00:38:34.135 --> 00:38:35.056
How great would that be?
00:38:35.195 --> 00:38:37.036
I mean, that's why you go to Cheers,
00:38:37.077 --> 00:38:37.217
right?
00:38:37.237 --> 00:38:37.916
Everybody knows your name.
00:38:38.465 --> 00:38:40.146
we used to have circuits
00:38:40.206 --> 00:38:42.088
like exercise equipment
00:38:42.128 --> 00:38:44.231
that were computerized and would track,
00:38:44.251 --> 00:38:45.452
you know, how many reps, how many,
00:38:45.793 --> 00:38:47.155
how much weight you were using.
00:38:47.568 --> 00:38:49.148
That stuff's been around forever.
00:38:49.228 --> 00:38:50.349
It's just never really been
00:38:50.369 --> 00:38:51.570
brought into therapy.
00:38:52.672 --> 00:38:52.811
Now,
00:38:52.851 --> 00:38:54.313
somebody like Dave isn't going to need
00:38:54.353 --> 00:38:55.875
something like that because, you know,
00:38:55.894 --> 00:38:56.695
it's a one on one.
00:38:56.735 --> 00:38:58.456
He's in the house.
00:39:00.237 --> 00:39:03.760
But the question would still be like,
00:39:03.940 --> 00:39:05.362
I know therapists had said, well,
00:39:05.402 --> 00:39:06.402
why don't we just video
00:39:06.463 --> 00:39:07.764
record the entire session
00:39:07.804 --> 00:39:08.684
and submit the video
00:39:08.744 --> 00:39:10.186
recording to the insurance company?
00:39:10.565 --> 00:39:11.346
Because that's not what the
00:39:11.385 --> 00:39:13.166
insurance company is asking us to do.
00:39:13.507 --> 00:39:14.568
The insurance company is
00:39:14.628 --> 00:39:15.909
still asking us to
00:39:16.009 --> 00:39:18.389
summarize what was done, track progress,
00:39:18.449 --> 00:39:20.010
assess the patient.
00:39:20.030 --> 00:39:21.411
Just giving them a recording
00:39:21.911 --> 00:39:22.731
isn't what it is.
00:39:22.811 --> 00:39:24.532
But now the AI technology
00:39:24.592 --> 00:39:26.554
exists that if we did do a
00:39:26.594 --> 00:39:29.014
video recording, not just audio,
00:39:29.594 --> 00:39:31.795
the AI could analyze what
00:39:31.856 --> 00:39:33.097
all happened during that
00:39:33.157 --> 00:39:35.117
recording frame by frame
00:39:35.297 --> 00:39:36.438
and provide the summary and
00:39:36.458 --> 00:39:37.039
the assessment.
00:39:37.315 --> 00:39:39.655
I'll give you a content parallel, right?
00:39:40.076 --> 00:39:41.797
I want my reels to go more viral.
00:39:41.896 --> 00:39:43.177
Like I record a lot of content,
00:39:43.217 --> 00:39:43.918
but then I have to sit
00:39:43.938 --> 00:39:45.039
there and go through it or
00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:46.938
pay someone who's a good editor,
00:39:46.978 --> 00:39:47.519
but maybe they don't
00:39:47.559 --> 00:39:49.780
understand physical therapy
00:39:49.800 --> 00:39:51.240
or like the nuance, right?
00:39:51.862 --> 00:39:53.382
So we record everything with
00:39:53.402 --> 00:39:54.202
the platform we're using
00:39:54.262 --> 00:39:55.322
right now called StreamYard.
00:39:55.382 --> 00:39:56.623
That's how we broadcast and
00:39:56.664 --> 00:39:57.503
it also records.
00:39:57.704 --> 00:40:00.565
With that, we get a VTT file, a transcript,
00:40:00.746 --> 00:40:00.905
right?
00:40:02.105 --> 00:40:03.106
I take that transcript and
00:40:03.126 --> 00:40:04.146
put it in a chat GPT.
00:40:04.206 --> 00:40:06.168
And now it's something that
00:40:06.188 --> 00:40:08.188
the large language model can manipulate.
00:40:08.969 --> 00:40:10.670
I can then tell it to act like,
00:40:10.690 --> 00:40:11.972
you guys know who Jenny Hoyos is?
00:40:11.992 --> 00:40:13.632
She's like that girl that
00:40:13.672 --> 00:40:14.693
burst on the YouTube scene.
00:40:14.713 --> 00:40:16.394
She's like, I can make anything go viral.
00:40:16.474 --> 00:40:17.856
And she has a formula and
00:40:17.956 --> 00:40:19.255
she's pretty damn consistent,
00:40:19.617 --> 00:40:21.018
but she understands the whole process.
00:40:21.697 --> 00:40:23.681
So I could give right now on
00:40:24.141 --> 00:40:26.083
October twenty ninth, I could say here,
00:40:26.103 --> 00:40:27.666
GPT, here's the transcript.
00:40:27.865 --> 00:40:29.867
Act like Jenny Hoyos and
00:40:29.967 --> 00:40:30.989
tell me I don't even care
00:40:31.010 --> 00:40:32.030
if it's in order.
00:40:33.068 --> 00:40:34.731
Just, I need those clips to pop off.
00:40:35.070 --> 00:40:36.271
Make a highlight reel of
00:40:36.311 --> 00:40:37.413
this episode that's less
00:40:37.432 --> 00:40:38.414
than sixty seconds.
00:40:38.873 --> 00:40:39.795
Then I still gotta go in
00:40:39.815 --> 00:40:41.876
there and track with the, okay, she said,
00:40:42.117 --> 00:40:43.679
the GPT of Jenny said to go
00:40:43.719 --> 00:40:44.920
in there at this moment, this moment,
00:40:44.940 --> 00:40:45.400
this moment.
00:40:45.699 --> 00:40:46.920
Well now Descript,
00:40:46.940 --> 00:40:48.083
are you guys familiar with Descript?
00:40:48.103 --> 00:40:48.722
I know Tony is.
00:40:49.123 --> 00:40:50.063
Descript essentially lets
00:40:50.083 --> 00:40:52.806
you edit a video by copying
00:40:52.827 --> 00:40:53.947
and pasting and moving a
00:40:54.208 --> 00:40:55.628
Microsoft Word document,
00:40:55.969 --> 00:40:56.971
for lack of a better term.
00:40:57.331 --> 00:40:58.472
Could those things just be
00:40:58.512 --> 00:40:59.233
combined together?
00:40:59.873 --> 00:41:01.114
Yeah, because I just thought of it,
00:41:01.134 --> 00:41:02.114
which means someone smarter
00:41:02.135 --> 00:41:03.695
than me thought of it six months ago,
00:41:03.715 --> 00:41:04.336
and they're already in the
00:41:04.356 --> 00:41:05.297
works of doing that.
00:41:05.717 --> 00:41:08.219
So do I think that clinical
00:41:08.239 --> 00:41:09.099
documentation and
00:41:09.119 --> 00:41:10.141
healthcare will go this way?
00:41:10.440 --> 00:41:13.023
Yep, because it's going to help with speed,
00:41:13.603 --> 00:41:14.664
and it's going to help with
00:41:16.005 --> 00:41:17.646
being able to be reimbursed.
00:41:18.367 --> 00:41:19.228
Do more faster.
00:41:20.028 --> 00:41:21.110
I think there's a part of
00:41:21.130 --> 00:41:22.331
the camp there like, no,
00:41:22.391 --> 00:41:24.132
this feels like an invasion of privacy.
00:41:24.632 --> 00:41:26.112
And everywhere in society
00:41:26.773 --> 00:41:28.795
that it feels like an invasion of privacy,
00:41:29.275 --> 00:41:30.695
as long as convenience and
00:41:30.916 --> 00:41:33.077
ease is on the other side,
00:41:33.378 --> 00:41:34.117
we will accept it.
00:41:34.438 --> 00:41:35.039
Want to know why?
00:41:35.378 --> 00:41:36.619
I have nine microphones in
00:41:36.659 --> 00:41:38.141
my house that Jeff Bezos
00:41:38.181 --> 00:41:39.561
consensually listened to, right?
00:41:39.641 --> 00:41:40.461
And these things also have
00:41:40.501 --> 00:41:41.322
cameras on them.
00:41:41.682 --> 00:41:42.983
I would never allow that.
00:41:43.643 --> 00:41:44.302
but you made something
00:41:44.422 --> 00:41:46.164
easier and then I not only allow it,
00:41:46.184 --> 00:41:47.164
but I pay for it.
00:41:47.364 --> 00:41:48.445
I pay you for it.
00:41:48.525 --> 00:41:48.786
Right?
00:41:49.186 --> 00:41:50.146
So I think it will.
00:41:50.286 --> 00:41:50.947
I think the people that
00:41:50.967 --> 00:41:53.509
adopt it fastest twofold, you got,
00:41:53.548 --> 00:41:54.068
I think you're going to
00:41:54.088 --> 00:41:55.911
make more money and I think
00:41:55.931 --> 00:41:56.670
you're going to attract
00:41:56.731 --> 00:41:58.211
people to tie it up with a
00:41:58.271 --> 00:42:00.092
bow who want to work that way.
00:42:00.132 --> 00:42:01.373
Cause they're like, yeah, this,
00:42:01.414 --> 00:42:02.335
I want to do this,
00:42:02.715 --> 00:42:03.715
but not that other stuff
00:42:03.735 --> 00:42:06.516
that burns me out or I feel burned out by,
00:42:07.057 --> 00:42:07.177
um,
00:42:07.978 --> 00:42:09.637
So make me a better environment.
00:42:09.717 --> 00:42:11.659
I think utilizing technology
00:42:12.559 --> 00:42:15.559
is going to be a moneymaker.
00:42:15.579 --> 00:42:17.579
The long-term reason for the
00:42:17.599 --> 00:42:19.119
investment for technology
00:42:19.139 --> 00:42:20.519
like this is going to be a
00:42:20.559 --> 00:42:21.221
recruiting tool,
00:42:21.240 --> 00:42:23.041
like one of you guys said months ago.
00:42:23.161 --> 00:42:23.840
I think it's right.
00:42:25.021 --> 00:42:26.981
So there's airports already using this.
00:42:27.001 --> 00:42:28.442
There's something apparently
00:42:28.481 --> 00:42:29.541
called Digital ID.
00:42:30.161 --> 00:42:31.001
I just had someone tell me
00:42:31.021 --> 00:42:31.882
about this yesterday.
00:42:32.282 --> 00:42:32.702
Oh, at TSA?
00:42:32.762 --> 00:42:32.943
Yeah.
00:42:33.963 --> 00:42:35.143
So it's different than
00:42:35.164 --> 00:42:36.563
Global Entry and TSA.
00:42:36.603 --> 00:42:37.824
It's like a third bucket now.
00:42:38.184 --> 00:42:40.485
It's a third lane or whatever.
00:42:41.646 --> 00:42:45.487
This guy went on Delta from, I think,
00:42:45.507 --> 00:42:49.090
JFK to Orlando recently.
00:42:49.898 --> 00:42:50.818
He now you have to have,
00:42:50.838 --> 00:42:51.759
I think he said you have to
00:42:51.778 --> 00:42:53.679
have global entry and TSA,
00:42:53.820 --> 00:42:54.440
those two things.
00:42:54.500 --> 00:42:55.380
And then you have to like
00:42:55.420 --> 00:42:56.760
sign up for digital ID
00:42:57.141 --> 00:42:57.840
online or whatever.
00:42:58.402 --> 00:43:00.402
He walked up to the, up to the camera,
00:43:00.882 --> 00:43:03.224
no boarding pass, no driver's license,
00:43:03.284 --> 00:43:04.623
anything walks up to the camera.
00:43:04.943 --> 00:43:06.465
It scans his eyes or takes a picture,
00:43:06.485 --> 00:43:06.824
whatever.
00:43:07.204 --> 00:43:08.246
And he just, they walk through,
00:43:08.385 --> 00:43:08.945
you just walk through.
00:43:08.965 --> 00:43:10.967
So completely even faster
00:43:10.987 --> 00:43:13.208
than TSA and TSA at JFK.
00:43:13.228 --> 00:43:15.248
We've, we've gone through TSA in three,
00:43:15.268 --> 00:43:15.929
four, five minutes.
00:43:15.949 --> 00:43:16.548
It's incredible.
00:43:16.869 --> 00:43:18.110
And somehow this is faster.
00:43:18.130 --> 00:43:18.210
Yeah.
00:43:19.005 --> 00:43:20.947
I just went through, coming back from AOMT,
00:43:21.708 --> 00:43:23.670
I went through TSA, but some airports,
00:43:23.809 --> 00:43:25.952
not Westchester, not where I flew out of,
00:43:25.992 --> 00:43:28.134
where I flew into, where the hell was I?
00:43:28.393 --> 00:43:28.795
Orlando.
00:43:29.275 --> 00:43:31.257
At Orlando, the TSA lane,
00:43:31.376 --> 00:43:32.338
usually you hand them your
00:43:32.418 --> 00:43:34.119
ID and you scan your boarding pass.
00:43:35.820 --> 00:43:36.762
This I didn't have to do.
00:43:37.842 --> 00:43:38.141
either.
00:43:38.842 --> 00:43:40.043
So maybe it's some of that technology.
00:43:40.063 --> 00:43:41.625
Like I walked up and she was like, Oh,
00:43:41.704 --> 00:43:42.744
stand in front of this thing.
00:43:42.985 --> 00:43:43.746
And I was like, okay.
00:43:44.405 --> 00:43:45.027
And it was like, good.
00:43:45.067 --> 00:43:45.447
You're good to go.
00:43:45.467 --> 00:43:46.128
I'm like, you don't need,
00:43:46.148 --> 00:43:47.447
cause I have my boarding pass and my,
00:43:47.628 --> 00:43:48.289
my ID ready.
00:43:48.429 --> 00:43:50.751
Yeah.
00:43:50.851 --> 00:43:52.092
But I had to sign up for anything extra,
00:43:52.132 --> 00:43:54.393
but like clear was like retinal scans.
00:43:54.432 --> 00:43:54.974
Like we were like, Oh,
00:43:54.994 --> 00:43:55.873
that's going to be the future.
00:43:56.014 --> 00:43:57.315
And we sort of skipped retinal scans.
00:43:57.574 --> 00:43:58.335
Retinal scans were like the
00:43:58.396 --> 00:44:01.737
mini disc from CDs to MP threes.
00:44:01.958 --> 00:44:02.858
There was this technology in
00:44:02.878 --> 00:44:04.039
the middle called mini disc.
00:44:04.059 --> 00:44:04.480
And I was like,
00:44:04.559 --> 00:44:05.840
this is going to be everywhere.
00:44:06.141 --> 00:44:07.521
And in fact was not everywhere.
00:44:08.922 --> 00:44:10.003
So I want to go back to
00:44:10.043 --> 00:44:11.304
something Dave had mentioned,
00:44:12.184 --> 00:44:14.286
getting somebody to help clean the house.
00:44:15.106 --> 00:44:16.708
That is an interesting
00:44:16.788 --> 00:44:18.989
experience because I can
00:44:19.030 --> 00:44:20.590
tell you first world problem.
00:44:20.630 --> 00:44:22.592
Like I feel embarrassed saying this.
00:44:24.092 --> 00:44:26.715
We had an amazing lady who would come in.
00:44:26.894 --> 00:44:28.677
We were only doing, I think, once a month.
00:44:29.376 --> 00:44:30.057
And, you know,
00:44:30.277 --> 00:44:31.539
it was when our kids were small.
00:44:32.199 --> 00:44:34.139
But it was so much work for
00:44:34.360 --> 00:44:35.900
us to get all of the junk
00:44:36.039 --> 00:44:38.181
out of her way so that she
00:44:38.201 --> 00:44:40.121
could do what she needed to do.
00:44:40.621 --> 00:44:43.362
That the first opportunity we got,
00:44:43.422 --> 00:44:44.442
we were like, oh,
00:44:44.461 --> 00:44:45.922
we got to stop doing this.
00:44:46.443 --> 00:44:48.202
I'm sorry, we can't do this anymore.
00:44:49.523 --> 00:44:50.583
You think it's going to be
00:44:50.603 --> 00:44:51.923
the most amazing experience.
00:44:51.943 --> 00:44:52.784
Somebody is going to come in
00:44:52.824 --> 00:44:53.565
and do all this stuff.
00:44:53.585 --> 00:44:54.684
But then you realize you
00:44:54.744 --> 00:44:56.666
have to do all of this work
00:44:57.065 --> 00:44:58.286
to get the house ready for
00:44:58.365 --> 00:44:59.867
them to do what they're going to do.
00:44:59.887 --> 00:45:00.286
I don't do it.
00:45:00.306 --> 00:45:01.047
I just work.
00:45:01.086 --> 00:45:01.847
I'm going to hire one of
00:45:01.867 --> 00:45:02.949
these therapists that wants
00:45:02.969 --> 00:45:03.610
to do telehealth.
00:45:03.630 --> 00:45:04.652
They can come and use my
00:45:04.693 --> 00:45:06.195
sofas and then the cleaning
00:45:06.215 --> 00:45:06.916
person can come in.
00:45:07.336 --> 00:45:07.777
There you go.
00:45:07.797 --> 00:45:08.518
That's a possibility.
00:45:09.420 --> 00:45:10.762
I can't wait for like three
00:45:10.802 --> 00:45:11.722
or four months down the
00:45:11.762 --> 00:45:13.003
road to come back to you
00:45:13.023 --> 00:45:14.525
and ask you about this but
00:45:14.664 --> 00:45:15.646
but this is just like in
00:45:15.666 --> 00:45:16.746
therapy the person who's
00:45:16.786 --> 00:45:17.987
like I don't want to start
00:45:18.027 --> 00:45:19.168
physical therapy until I
00:45:19.208 --> 00:45:20.088
lose some weight and get
00:45:20.128 --> 00:45:21.650
into better shape you know
00:45:21.690 --> 00:45:23.431
like we we have this issue
00:45:23.492 --> 00:45:24.932
across all professional
00:45:24.972 --> 00:45:27.353
services um you don't go to
00:45:27.375 --> 00:45:28.635
a financial planner until
00:45:28.655 --> 00:45:29.856
you're making more money or
00:45:29.876 --> 00:45:30.936
you clean up your accounts
00:45:30.956 --> 00:45:32.257
like everybody has this
00:45:32.717 --> 00:45:34.760
self-imposed insecurity but
00:45:34.820 --> 00:45:36.400
I will say like as amazing
00:45:36.440 --> 00:45:38.503
as it was to have her working with us
00:45:38.882 --> 00:45:42.128
it was equally frustrating to know, ah,
00:45:42.188 --> 00:45:43.431
she's coming tomorrow morning.
00:45:43.451 --> 00:45:44.291
We got to get the house
00:45:44.311 --> 00:45:45.635
clean and ready for her to
00:45:45.675 --> 00:45:47.498
come so she can do the
00:45:47.538 --> 00:45:48.438
things she needs to do.
00:45:50.242 --> 00:45:51.643
I've had some other colleagues say like,
00:45:51.782 --> 00:45:52.543
oh, my gosh, yeah,
00:45:52.603 --> 00:45:53.523
like you're going to love it.
00:45:54.344 --> 00:45:56.485
You know, everyone says, oh,
00:45:56.565 --> 00:45:57.824
I should have delegated it earlier,
00:45:57.885 --> 00:45:58.344
sooner.
00:45:58.744 --> 00:45:59.744
And yes, we're doing it, you know,
00:45:59.764 --> 00:46:00.726
young kid, all that.
00:46:00.786 --> 00:46:01.626
So it makes sense that you
00:46:01.646 --> 00:46:03.266
guys tried it when you had younger kids.
00:46:03.925 --> 00:46:04.907
No one has said that approach.
00:46:04.927 --> 00:46:06.706
But again, you know, Tony, you're unique.
00:46:06.746 --> 00:46:07.686
And maybe we're going to
00:46:07.706 --> 00:46:09.268
find ourselves in that position like, oh,
00:46:09.307 --> 00:46:11.088
man, I got to I got to do this and that.
00:46:11.168 --> 00:46:12.507
And we have to do all this prep work,
00:46:12.527 --> 00:46:14.768
whatever we shall see.
00:46:14.809 --> 00:46:15.208
I'll let you know.
00:46:15.728 --> 00:46:18.070
We loved it after we're coming back home.
00:46:18.110 --> 00:46:19.251
Like we would leave for four
00:46:19.271 --> 00:46:20.351
or six hours and you come
00:46:20.371 --> 00:46:21.713
back home and everything
00:46:21.733 --> 00:46:22.813
smells amazing and
00:46:22.873 --> 00:46:23.914
everything is cleaner than
00:46:23.954 --> 00:46:24.733
it's ever been.
00:46:25.295 --> 00:46:26.534
It's just the prep work to
00:46:26.596 --> 00:46:28.936
get to the house ready for them.
00:46:29.317 --> 00:46:29.436
Yeah.
00:46:29.456 --> 00:46:31.297
You got to move the big rocks,
00:46:31.478 --> 00:46:33.440
but you're paying for the small rocks,
00:46:33.500 --> 00:46:33.800
right?
00:46:33.900 --> 00:46:35.360
You're playing for her to like, you know,
00:46:35.581 --> 00:46:36.961
him or her to like, you know,
00:46:37.442 --> 00:46:38.663
do the scrub, right?
00:46:38.762 --> 00:46:39.563
Like I have no problem
00:46:39.583 --> 00:46:40.443
picking up my clothes and
00:46:40.463 --> 00:46:40.963
throwing them in the hand.
00:46:41.204 --> 00:46:42.244
hamper although I
00:46:42.304 --> 00:46:43.385
consistently don't do that
00:46:43.885 --> 00:46:44.887
um so you're paying for the
00:46:44.927 --> 00:46:46.067
small rocks ironically and
00:46:46.086 --> 00:46:47.568
you can do the big rocks um
00:46:47.588 --> 00:46:48.628
we got fifteen minutes left
00:46:48.728 --> 00:46:49.909
I thought we would do like
00:46:50.429 --> 00:46:51.891
quick updates on the
00:46:51.931 --> 00:46:53.052
projects we're all working
00:46:53.112 --> 00:46:54.273
on because I actually got a
00:46:54.333 --> 00:46:55.454
few people like saying like
00:46:55.853 --> 00:46:56.775
hey that's kind of cool
00:46:56.795 --> 00:46:57.755
like you guys are building
00:46:57.775 --> 00:46:58.715
in public which a lot of
00:46:58.755 --> 00:47:00.336
organizations do so tony
00:47:00.356 --> 00:47:01.318
why don't you go first like
00:47:01.538 --> 00:47:02.478
been seeing more videos
00:47:02.518 --> 00:47:04.840
about uh biodex and the
00:47:04.880 --> 00:47:05.740
reactive step trainer
00:47:06.536 --> 00:47:06.856
Yeah.
00:47:06.876 --> 00:47:09.018
So right now, in fact, today,
00:47:09.458 --> 00:47:10.800
one of the guys from Biodex
00:47:10.860 --> 00:47:13.222
is coming down from Northern Ohio.
00:47:13.282 --> 00:47:14.945
He's going to get here around lunchtime.
00:47:15.481 --> 00:47:16.983
We're going to spend the afternoon.
00:47:17.043 --> 00:47:18.003
I don't have any patients.
00:47:18.043 --> 00:47:18.965
I cleared my schedule.
00:47:19.005 --> 00:47:20.326
We're going to create some content.
00:47:20.806 --> 00:47:22.088
Then he's going to be around
00:47:22.128 --> 00:47:23.748
tomorrow morning when I'm
00:47:23.768 --> 00:47:25.070
going to put more real
00:47:25.110 --> 00:47:29.014
patients on the reactive step trainer.
00:47:29.235 --> 00:47:31.317
My approach to what I asked
00:47:31.356 --> 00:47:34.280
Dave for social media was I
00:47:34.300 --> 00:47:36.422
was not doing any media on
00:47:36.461 --> 00:47:37.943
my business Facebook page.
00:47:38.824 --> 00:47:41.007
I was not doing anything on Instagram.
00:47:41.027 --> 00:47:42.409
The last Instagram post that
00:47:42.489 --> 00:47:45.193
I had before I started up this month,
00:47:45.213 --> 00:47:47.056
let's say, was like a year,
00:47:47.115 --> 00:47:48.878
year and a half ago, maybe two years ago.
00:47:49.800 --> 00:47:50.681
So what I'm doing,
00:47:51.862 --> 00:47:54.206
recording organic content in the clinic.
00:47:54.626 --> 00:47:55.987
Every patient has a HIPAA
00:47:56.007 --> 00:47:57.989
compliant media release on file.
00:47:58.449 --> 00:47:59.789
Every patient is informed.
00:47:59.869 --> 00:48:01.291
Every patient knows who are recording.
00:48:01.351 --> 00:48:02.552
I stick the camera in front
00:48:02.592 --> 00:48:05.074
of their face so they see like, hey,
00:48:05.114 --> 00:48:06.554
this is what I had you sign
00:48:06.574 --> 00:48:07.335
that release for.
00:48:08.896 --> 00:48:10.257
And what I'm doing is I'm
00:48:10.297 --> 00:48:11.378
finding that balance
00:48:11.418 --> 00:48:15.260
between real people and real technology,
00:48:15.320 --> 00:48:16.161
real equipment.
00:48:16.181 --> 00:48:17.103
So like I have...
00:48:18.621 --> 00:48:20.101
two YouTube Shorts that I
00:48:20.141 --> 00:48:21.342
posted over the weekend.
00:48:21.681 --> 00:48:23.563
One hit nine thousand views,
00:48:23.663 --> 00:48:24.884
one hit ten thousand views,
00:48:24.903 --> 00:48:26.625
like they're doing awesome.
00:48:26.664 --> 00:48:27.905
Posting on Instagram,
00:48:28.284 --> 00:48:30.206
I'm averaging like three or
00:48:30.246 --> 00:48:32.507
four thousand accounts reached.
00:48:32.606 --> 00:48:33.507
I don't know the Instagram
00:48:33.547 --> 00:48:34.527
metrics that well.
00:48:36.009 --> 00:48:37.670
Facebook, LinkedIn.
00:48:38.090 --> 00:48:39.791
So I'm priming the pump
00:48:40.371 --> 00:48:42.391
because the next step is if
00:48:42.431 --> 00:48:44.052
we do a paid ad campaign,
00:48:45.068 --> 00:48:47.050
I want the algorithms to
00:48:47.110 --> 00:48:47.971
already have some
00:48:48.030 --> 00:48:49.891
information and some content with that.
00:48:49.911 --> 00:48:51.213
How long do you think it
00:48:51.253 --> 00:48:52.172
takes for the algorithm to
00:48:52.213 --> 00:48:52.773
figure that out?
00:48:52.793 --> 00:48:54.775
Because I've been doing
00:48:54.815 --> 00:48:56.155
stuff on YouTube for, I don't know,
00:48:56.175 --> 00:48:57.036
how long have you been doing this?
00:48:57.096 --> 00:48:57.255
For...
00:48:58.331 --> 00:48:59.731
Eight, nine months, seven or eight months.
00:49:00.371 --> 00:49:01.472
I think I'm now starting to
00:49:01.492 --> 00:49:03.192
see videos that like did nothing.
00:49:03.391 --> 00:49:04.351
Now I'm starting to see like
00:49:04.532 --> 00:49:05.333
really steep ups.
00:49:05.413 --> 00:49:06.373
I'm like, oh, cool.
00:49:06.393 --> 00:49:07.213
This stuff works.
00:49:07.253 --> 00:49:08.652
Like it's funny how I put
00:49:08.672 --> 00:49:10.054
out a ton of podcast content,
00:49:10.434 --> 00:49:11.954
do the same on YouTube, get nothing,
00:49:12.014 --> 00:49:12.634
nothing, nothing.
00:49:12.653 --> 00:49:14.094
I'm about to throw the towel.
00:49:14.275 --> 00:49:15.574
It knows it and it probably
00:49:15.594 --> 00:49:16.414
knows I'm about to quit.
00:49:16.755 --> 00:49:17.855
And it's like all these
00:49:17.875 --> 00:49:18.795
things are now popping off.
00:49:18.835 --> 00:49:19.416
How long do you think it
00:49:19.456 --> 00:49:20.655
knows or takes to know?
00:49:21.302 --> 00:49:23.005
I don't think it's a time thing.
00:49:23.266 --> 00:49:24.987
I think it's a reach thing.
00:49:25.469 --> 00:49:27.192
So like your YouTube channel
00:49:27.271 --> 00:49:28.733
wasn't reaching enough
00:49:28.813 --> 00:49:31.117
people for the algorithm to
00:49:31.137 --> 00:49:32.478
get enough information.
00:49:32.980 --> 00:49:33.541
So for you,
00:49:33.601 --> 00:49:37.246
it took longer time now because of time.
00:49:37.739 --> 00:49:39.740
it's starting to capture enough data,
00:49:39.780 --> 00:49:41.101
enough information to make
00:49:41.561 --> 00:49:42.722
recommendations to people
00:49:42.762 --> 00:49:43.884
that want to see your content.
00:49:45.045 --> 00:49:47.527
Like when I go to my almost
00:49:47.547 --> 00:49:49.347
sixty thousand subscriber channel,
00:49:49.467 --> 00:49:50.869
I laid off for months.
00:49:50.929 --> 00:49:52.550
I didn't post anything for months.
00:49:53.291 --> 00:49:54.952
But it's got enough history
00:49:54.972 --> 00:49:56.173
and enough data so that
00:49:56.213 --> 00:49:57.675
when I put something new on,
00:49:58.157 --> 00:49:59.757
it knows who to put that in front of.
00:50:00.219 --> 00:50:00.940
And none of us know.
00:50:00.980 --> 00:50:01.639
We're guessing.
00:50:01.719 --> 00:50:02.501
But ultimately,
00:50:02.822 --> 00:50:04.402
I do think it's about does
00:50:04.443 --> 00:50:06.125
it have enough iterations
00:50:06.164 --> 00:50:07.847
and enough information in
00:50:07.887 --> 00:50:09.548
the system to know who
00:50:09.588 --> 00:50:10.931
wants to see this piece of content?
00:50:11.536 --> 00:50:13.295
You know, for bigger reach,
00:50:13.356 --> 00:50:14.336
it's going to go quicker.
00:50:14.396 --> 00:50:15.896
For a smaller, newer channel,
00:50:15.916 --> 00:50:16.876
it's going to take longer.
00:50:17.916 --> 00:50:19.438
But like I see results
00:50:19.458 --> 00:50:20.757
within thirty days right now.
00:50:20.878 --> 00:50:23.418
Like I feel like Instagram is growing.
00:50:24.039 --> 00:50:25.739
I added subscribers.
00:50:25.818 --> 00:50:26.778
I'm adding reach.
00:50:26.838 --> 00:50:28.259
I'm reaching more new accounts.
00:50:28.719 --> 00:50:30.119
LinkedIn is doing amazing.
00:50:30.179 --> 00:50:31.699
Like I'm averaging twenty
00:50:31.780 --> 00:50:33.641
thousand impressions a week right now,
00:50:34.161 --> 00:50:35.260
which has been great.
00:50:36.940 --> 00:50:38.521
Pinterest is growing like
00:50:38.722 --> 00:50:40.461
all of my socials are up.
00:50:42.045 --> 00:50:42.925
And I got to think that's
00:50:42.945 --> 00:50:43.905
because I'm obviously
00:50:43.945 --> 00:50:47.666
posting more across all the platforms.
00:50:47.746 --> 00:50:47.846
Yeah,
00:50:48.025 --> 00:50:49.847
I had a conversation with this guy
00:50:50.527 --> 00:50:51.746
while I was at AOMT,
00:50:52.467 --> 00:50:53.788
like the guy who runs this channel,
00:50:54.027 --> 00:50:55.327
like admittedly,
00:50:55.387 --> 00:50:57.588
like no video experience when he started.
00:50:57.907 --> 00:50:59.028
And we had like a thirty
00:50:59.048 --> 00:51:01.829
minute conversation at at the bar,
00:51:01.869 --> 00:51:04.070
just a physical therapist from El Paso.
00:51:04.510 --> 00:51:06.329
And he's like now he's got
00:51:06.409 --> 00:51:07.170
six hundred and seventy
00:51:07.230 --> 00:51:08.650
eight thousand subscribers
00:51:08.690 --> 00:51:10.170
and it totally changed his business.
00:51:11.030 --> 00:51:12.411
And he's talking,
00:51:13.052 --> 00:51:13.873
he listened to the live
00:51:13.913 --> 00:51:16.153
stream before I was like, you know, blush,
00:51:16.273 --> 00:51:17.514
like what, you know, that's, you know,
00:51:17.554 --> 00:51:20.056
crazy, but going to get him on the show.
00:51:20.217 --> 00:51:21.918
We had a long conversation
00:51:22.277 --> 00:51:24.539
and figuring these things out.
00:51:24.798 --> 00:51:25.820
I also think the lessons
00:51:25.840 --> 00:51:26.740
that you learn from YouTube
00:51:26.780 --> 00:51:27.800
are just like good business
00:51:27.820 --> 00:51:29.541
practice and good communication practice,
00:51:30.023 --> 00:51:30.262
right?
00:51:30.282 --> 00:51:31.182
Like he's understanding what
00:51:31.222 --> 00:51:32.503
his audience is and wants.
00:51:33.184 --> 00:51:33.965
This goes back to,
00:51:33.985 --> 00:51:36.146
and maybe this is another episode,
00:51:36.166 --> 00:51:36.927
but I'll prime the pump.
00:51:39.061 --> 00:51:40.523
Is it our job to give our
00:51:40.563 --> 00:51:41.583
patients what we think they
00:51:41.623 --> 00:51:43.264
need or what they come in
00:51:43.324 --> 00:51:44.083
thinking they want?
00:51:44.304 --> 00:51:45.724
Or is the answer somewhere in the middle?
00:51:45.844 --> 00:51:46.625
Like some people were like,
00:51:46.704 --> 00:51:48.686
if they don't want what I suggest,
00:51:48.905 --> 00:51:50.967
then they can kick rocks.
00:51:51.027 --> 00:51:51.367
Both,
00:51:51.407 --> 00:51:52.887
but in the order that the patient wants.
00:51:52.927 --> 00:51:54.047
That's the answer.
00:51:54.168 --> 00:51:55.929
I feel like this is a longer discussion.
00:51:56.009 --> 00:51:57.329
I feel like this is a poll question.
00:51:57.349 --> 00:51:58.809
That's a whole other episode.
00:51:59.010 --> 00:51:59.710
I feel like this would be a
00:51:59.769 --> 00:52:01.771
poll question with comments
00:52:01.831 --> 00:52:02.590
that we could read the
00:52:02.630 --> 00:52:03.492
comments because...
00:52:04.556 --> 00:52:05.777
I would have said, you know,
00:52:05.818 --> 00:52:06.759
when I was a PT student,
00:52:06.778 --> 00:52:09.260
I would have said, this is my suggestion.
00:52:09.300 --> 00:52:10.963
And I know I have a degree
00:52:11.003 --> 00:52:12.164
in the da-da-da-da-da.
00:52:12.244 --> 00:52:14.144
And now I'm like, oh.
00:52:14.184 --> 00:52:15.565
Did you see my post about it?
00:52:15.907 --> 00:52:16.106
No.
00:52:16.206 --> 00:52:16.867
Do you have one about it?
00:52:16.887 --> 00:52:17.748
Yeah, yeah.
00:52:17.847 --> 00:52:19.329
Like this exact situation.
00:52:19.409 --> 00:52:19.670
I said,
00:52:19.769 --> 00:52:21.451
do patients really have the right
00:52:21.490 --> 00:52:22.152
to choose?
00:52:22.711 --> 00:52:23.152
I said,
00:52:23.213 --> 00:52:25.134
would you allow them to choose the
00:52:25.173 --> 00:52:27.456
interventions they get and not get?
00:52:27.956 --> 00:52:30.579
I said, if you said yes, then, you know,
00:52:30.918 --> 00:52:32.940
how do you view your role as a therapist?
00:52:33.081 --> 00:52:33.922
Maybe this is where I got
00:52:33.942 --> 00:52:34.782
the conversation from.
00:52:35.565 --> 00:52:36.244
I posted this.
00:52:36.365 --> 00:52:37.706
Let's hear about Dave's projects.
00:52:37.788 --> 00:52:40.471
What's going on?
00:52:40.490 --> 00:52:41.932
Let's cover that on Thursday, Tony.
00:52:43.394 --> 00:52:44.836
So two quick things.
00:52:44.976 --> 00:52:46.880
One is I'm trying to pitch
00:52:46.920 --> 00:52:47.701
something like...
00:52:48.503 --> 00:52:49.864
Membership wellness offering
00:52:49.905 --> 00:52:51.726
to a practice owner in the
00:52:51.766 --> 00:52:52.606
city here in New York,
00:52:52.967 --> 00:52:53.967
maybe red light therapy,
00:52:54.007 --> 00:52:55.608
maybe hyperbaric oxygen chamber.
00:52:55.628 --> 00:52:56.389
That's a sidebar.
00:52:56.409 --> 00:52:57.150
We'll come back to that.
00:52:57.990 --> 00:52:59.291
What we're focusing on right now,
00:52:59.851 --> 00:53:01.112
we have two of our clients,
00:53:01.152 --> 00:53:02.793
two active patient clients right now,
00:53:03.275 --> 00:53:04.856
and their birthday happens to be today.
00:53:05.436 --> 00:53:07.536
so my therapist is treating
00:53:07.777 --> 00:53:08.978
one of them right now one
00:53:08.998 --> 00:53:09.478
of my therapists is
00:53:09.498 --> 00:53:10.099
treating one of them right
00:53:10.119 --> 00:53:12.599
now uh and he woke up early
00:53:12.880 --> 00:53:14.840
uh he said hey should we do
00:53:14.900 --> 00:53:16.001
something a couple days ago
00:53:16.021 --> 00:53:16.882
hey should we do something
00:53:16.922 --> 00:53:17.822
for so-and-so because their
00:53:17.842 --> 00:53:19.184
birthday I'm like yeah
00:53:19.244 --> 00:53:20.503
absolutely we're gonna you
00:53:20.523 --> 00:53:21.204
know do you wanna let's
00:53:21.324 --> 00:53:23.126
let's do it let's do a cake like you know
00:53:24.041 --> 00:53:25.284
Assuming they're not like, you know,
00:53:25.384 --> 00:53:26.184
diabetic or whatever,
00:53:26.264 --> 00:53:28.067
like let's do a cake, whatever, you know,
00:53:28.527 --> 00:53:29.648
send me a picture of the receipt.
00:53:30.168 --> 00:53:30.809
I'll reimburse you.
00:53:30.849 --> 00:53:31.550
No problem at all.
00:53:31.952 --> 00:53:33.413
You know, he sent me a picture of the box.
00:53:33.472 --> 00:53:35.235
He wrote, you know, nicely on the box.
00:53:35.376 --> 00:53:35.956
Maybe, you know,
00:53:35.996 --> 00:53:37.597
the cake wasn't able to
00:53:37.619 --> 00:53:39.440
have the icing with the
00:53:39.481 --> 00:53:40.681
patient or client's name on it.
00:53:41.422 --> 00:53:42.123
The point of bringing this
00:53:42.184 --> 00:53:43.525
up really quickly is that
00:53:43.784 --> 00:53:44.905
we always talk about marketing.
00:53:45.065 --> 00:53:46.206
We always talk about more
00:53:46.226 --> 00:53:47.248
new patients and clients.
00:53:48.108 --> 00:53:49.989
How about the wow experience
00:53:50.010 --> 00:53:51.331
for your current patients and clients?
00:53:51.431 --> 00:53:52.090
And if you don't have a
00:53:52.130 --> 00:53:54.072
business model that allows this,
00:53:54.112 --> 00:53:55.293
like this guy has spent
00:53:56.721 --> 00:53:59.722
A thousand, maybe, maybe ten grand with us,
00:53:59.742 --> 00:54:01.503
maybe fifteen grand already this year.
00:54:02.463 --> 00:54:04.425
What is a fifty dollar cake like?
00:54:04.465 --> 00:54:05.045
And this is going to
00:54:05.085 --> 00:54:06.565
probably surprise this guy,
00:54:07.425 --> 00:54:09.588
this client positively.
00:54:09.688 --> 00:54:10.327
And the therapist is going
00:54:10.347 --> 00:54:11.248
to bring it and that's
00:54:11.268 --> 00:54:12.248
going to be a talking point.
00:54:12.268 --> 00:54:12.909
And, you know,
00:54:12.929 --> 00:54:14.110
the therapist put his name
00:54:14.150 --> 00:54:15.391
and my name on the on the
00:54:15.411 --> 00:54:15.990
box and all that.
00:54:17.318 --> 00:54:18.838
And I want to wow my current
00:54:18.878 --> 00:54:19.498
patients and clients,
00:54:19.518 --> 00:54:21.199
the folks that already love
00:54:21.340 --> 00:54:24.181
our experience, our practice, our value,
00:54:24.222 --> 00:54:25.362
what we deliver, all of that,
00:54:25.643 --> 00:54:27.664
the human nature of what we offer.
00:54:29.105 --> 00:54:30.364
And it's only a matter of
00:54:30.385 --> 00:54:32.085
time until maybe his wife
00:54:32.106 --> 00:54:32.907
starts with us or his
00:54:32.967 --> 00:54:34.588
neighbor or someone in his
00:54:34.628 --> 00:54:36.047
building or a friend or whatever.
00:54:36.809 --> 00:54:37.929
So that's my little thing for today.
00:54:37.989 --> 00:54:38.889
That's what we're focusing on,
00:54:38.909 --> 00:54:40.030
which is currently to...
00:54:40.851 --> 00:54:43.313
uh reinforce the value and
00:54:43.333 --> 00:54:44.974
the wow factor of our
00:54:45.054 --> 00:54:46.394
current patients or clients
00:54:46.954 --> 00:54:47.916
first before looking
00:54:48.016 --> 00:54:49.036
elsewhere and like worrying
00:54:49.056 --> 00:54:49.757
about these google and
00:54:49.797 --> 00:54:51.659
facebook ads yeah this is
00:54:51.679 --> 00:54:52.358
like take care of your
00:54:52.398 --> 00:54:53.639
house before you go out and
00:54:53.679 --> 00:54:54.380
play in the neighborhood
00:54:54.460 --> 00:54:55.481
right this is surprise and
00:54:55.521 --> 00:54:56.402
delight I've talked about
00:54:56.422 --> 00:54:58.083
this before trying to think
00:54:58.123 --> 00:54:59.204
of other examples of
00:54:59.244 --> 00:55:00.425
surprise and delight maybe
00:55:00.445 --> 00:55:01.105
that's a maybe that's a
00:55:01.125 --> 00:55:02.146
good lesson I can't think
00:55:02.166 --> 00:55:03.367
of too many examples of
00:55:03.407 --> 00:55:04.146
surprise and delight
00:55:04.266 --> 00:55:05.228
outside of that peloton
00:55:05.268 --> 00:55:06.009
example I don't want to
00:55:06.048 --> 00:55:07.750
ruin this but if you have a peloton bike
00:55:08.987 --> 00:55:10.028
when you sign up you tell
00:55:10.048 --> 00:55:11.188
them your t-shirt size and
00:55:11.550 --> 00:55:12.409
I forgot I did it but when
00:55:12.449 --> 00:55:13.630
I hit my hundredth ride I
00:55:13.650 --> 00:55:15.052
got the Century Club
00:55:15.112 --> 00:55:16.652
t-shirt which I got to show
00:55:16.713 --> 00:55:17.833
off because the show the
00:55:17.853 --> 00:55:19.094
shirts about me and my
00:55:19.114 --> 00:55:20.255
accomplishments yeah there
00:55:20.275 --> 00:55:21.215
was a Peloton logo on the
00:55:21.235 --> 00:55:22.255
shoulder but there's
00:55:22.295 --> 00:55:23.597
surprise and delight which
00:55:24.137 --> 00:55:24.858
I mean what would a cake
00:55:24.898 --> 00:55:25.579
cost for somebody who
00:55:25.599 --> 00:55:26.858
dropped ten grand like if
00:55:26.898 --> 00:55:27.920
you said that to someone
00:55:28.500 --> 00:55:29.501
I'm thinking about buying a
00:55:29.860 --> 00:55:30.902
fifteen dollar cake well
00:55:30.942 --> 00:55:31.963
New York thirty five dollar
00:55:32.003 --> 00:55:33.623
cake for someone who spent
00:55:33.664 --> 00:55:35.164
ten grand they'd be like duh like of
00:55:36.103 --> 00:55:37.023
Of course you're gonna do that.
00:55:37.405 --> 00:55:39.144
But how often do we overlook that, right?
00:55:39.445 --> 00:55:41.485
Here's why, we try to scale it too fast.
00:55:41.766 --> 00:55:42.907
And then we cheap out.
00:55:42.987 --> 00:55:43.327
Cause you're like,
00:55:43.567 --> 00:55:44.907
what could I buy a thousand of?
00:55:45.387 --> 00:55:48.108
Pens, stress balls, candy.
00:55:48.708 --> 00:55:50.269
Instead of what are my top
00:55:51.670 --> 00:55:52.911
twenty most loyal patients?
00:55:53.391 --> 00:55:54.952
you know, not screw the rest, but like,
00:55:55.052 --> 00:55:56.594
let's, they're on a different level.
00:55:56.614 --> 00:55:57.875
So do something differently.
00:55:57.994 --> 00:55:58.856
I think that's a, I think,
00:55:59.215 --> 00:55:59.815
I think the fact that I
00:55:59.856 --> 00:56:00.777
can't think of too many
00:56:00.817 --> 00:56:01.838
other surprise and delight
00:56:01.878 --> 00:56:03.639
examples other than Peloton
00:56:04.139 --> 00:56:05.481
is a giant opportunity.
00:56:08.297 --> 00:56:09.438
The thing I'm working on is
00:56:09.759 --> 00:56:11.780
at Vestibular First, talked about this,
00:56:11.840 --> 00:56:11.960
right?
00:56:11.981 --> 00:56:14.121
These are like diagnostic goggles for now.
00:56:14.302 --> 00:56:15.623
They're just diagnostic goggles.
00:56:15.643 --> 00:56:18.346
Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
00:56:18.385 --> 00:56:19.606
But the funny thing is my
00:56:19.646 --> 00:56:20.608
job is really like talk to
00:56:20.648 --> 00:56:21.889
practices that are larger,
00:56:22.210 --> 00:56:23.891
not really to sell one set of goggles,
00:56:23.931 --> 00:56:25.211
but to sell, you know,
00:56:25.313 --> 00:56:26.653
five or ten or twenty like
00:56:26.673 --> 00:56:27.775
across a large practice.
00:56:29.125 --> 00:56:29.766
I thought I was going to
00:56:29.806 --> 00:56:30.347
have to deal with price
00:56:30.387 --> 00:56:31.768
objection or value objection.
00:56:32.228 --> 00:56:33.610
I'm not dealing with those objections.
00:56:33.829 --> 00:56:34.371
Do you guys know what
00:56:34.391 --> 00:56:35.552
objections I would be dealing with?
00:56:35.612 --> 00:56:36.614
It's not price or value.
00:56:36.653 --> 00:56:38.074
I think we've talked about this before.
00:56:38.775 --> 00:56:40.938
The therapist needed training.
00:56:42.159 --> 00:56:43.621
Yeah, that's part of it, which is like,
00:56:43.701 --> 00:56:44.762
cool, I bought these.
00:56:46.380 --> 00:56:46.920
Now what?
00:56:46.940 --> 00:56:48.161
Like, how do I set this up?
00:56:48.320 --> 00:56:49.181
I have clinicians who are
00:56:49.242 --> 00:56:51.123
super adept in this, super advanced.
00:56:51.463 --> 00:56:52.302
So I've got to educate.
00:56:52.342 --> 00:56:53.043
I've got to market.
00:56:53.344 --> 00:56:54.405
How do I roll this out?
00:56:54.724 --> 00:56:55.445
So I'm dealing a lot with
00:56:55.525 --> 00:56:56.766
those conversations where I
00:56:56.826 --> 00:56:57.626
didn't think that those
00:56:57.646 --> 00:56:58.387
would be the things that I
00:56:58.407 --> 00:56:59.347
would have to dip into.
00:57:00.447 --> 00:57:01.748
And now they are, which is like,
00:57:02.028 --> 00:57:03.009
I'm not just solving your
00:57:03.048 --> 00:57:04.630
problem by delivering a set of goggles.
00:57:05.150 --> 00:57:06.210
If you're a trained
00:57:06.231 --> 00:57:07.132
vestibular therapist who
00:57:07.152 --> 00:57:07.952
knows what you're getting into,
00:57:08.052 --> 00:57:09.152
these goggles solve all that.
00:57:09.713 --> 00:57:11.094
If you're an organization,
00:57:11.474 --> 00:57:12.376
you have different problems.
00:57:12.615 --> 00:57:13.277
So look at that.
00:57:13.356 --> 00:57:15.297
People and organizations are
00:57:15.318 --> 00:57:15.978
different and they have
00:57:15.998 --> 00:57:16.659
different problems.
00:57:16.719 --> 00:57:18.081
And if you can solve those problems,
00:57:18.422 --> 00:57:19.202
and this goes into like
00:57:19.523 --> 00:57:21.905
Tony's Softwave too, which is,
00:57:22.005 --> 00:57:23.505
that's sort of, we talked about this,
00:57:23.525 --> 00:57:24.748
which is like, oh yeah,
00:57:25.128 --> 00:57:26.489
It's not just a soft wave problem.
00:57:26.509 --> 00:57:28.809
Like where the goggles are working,
00:57:28.969 --> 00:57:29.869
we have that on lock.
00:57:29.969 --> 00:57:31.271
Like everything's fine.
00:57:31.570 --> 00:57:33.072
Soft wave has the therapy.
00:57:33.512 --> 00:57:34.891
It's everything around that.
00:57:34.952 --> 00:57:36.132
How do I get it to that
00:57:36.193 --> 00:57:37.393
moment when the goggles are on?
00:57:37.414 --> 00:57:38.474
How do I make sure that that
00:57:38.494 --> 00:57:39.173
thing's going to pay for
00:57:39.193 --> 00:57:40.114
itself times ten?
00:57:40.514 --> 00:57:41.534
So I get to be like sort of
00:57:41.554 --> 00:57:42.255
a project manager.
00:57:43.014 --> 00:57:44.077
Great to hear that you guys
00:57:44.117 --> 00:57:45.438
at Vestibular First might
00:57:45.739 --> 00:57:46.661
be moving into treatment,
00:57:46.681 --> 00:57:48.043
not just diagnostics, might.
00:57:48.443 --> 00:57:48.684
Might.
00:57:49.125 --> 00:57:49.826
I don't know about that.
00:57:49.925 --> 00:57:50.766
Yeah, might be.
00:57:51.228 --> 00:57:54.353
All right, parting shots for today.
00:57:54.373 --> 00:57:54.873
What do you guys got?
00:57:56.740 --> 00:57:57.240
Real quick,
00:57:57.300 --> 00:57:58.902
I'm just going to use mine functionally.
00:57:58.961 --> 00:58:00.362
Cynthia, if you're still here,
00:58:01.943 --> 00:58:03.423
you put in the comments
00:58:03.443 --> 00:58:04.744
about being non-par.
00:58:04.804 --> 00:58:05.923
You have to submit the
00:58:05.963 --> 00:58:09.286
CMS-FOR-SIXTY form to become par.
00:58:09.545 --> 00:58:10.465
That's my parting shot.
00:58:11.186 --> 00:58:12.646
If you missed it, I'll reach out to you.
00:58:12.666 --> 00:58:14.166
I'll try to find you, track you down,
00:58:14.306 --> 00:58:15.268
and tell you what you need
00:58:15.288 --> 00:58:16.027
to do to become par.
00:58:16.047 --> 00:58:18.969
Parting shot.
00:58:20.373 --> 00:58:21.554
Continue to focus on your
00:58:21.594 --> 00:58:22.793
current patients or clients,
00:58:23.474 --> 00:58:24.175
saying it to myself,
00:58:24.215 --> 00:58:24.994
even though we're doing
00:58:25.135 --> 00:58:25.956
with the cake and all that.
00:58:26.876 --> 00:58:28.978
Focus on that surprise and delight,
00:58:29.018 --> 00:58:29.797
like Jimmy said,
00:58:30.478 --> 00:58:32.418
before focusing on how do I
00:58:32.438 --> 00:58:33.260
get more new patients?
00:58:33.280 --> 00:58:34.000
How do I get more new
00:58:34.059 --> 00:58:35.621
referrals and all that?
00:58:35.701 --> 00:58:36.802
Focus on who you already have,
00:58:36.842 --> 00:58:37.762
who you can reactivate.
00:58:38.041 --> 00:58:38.802
Send them something,
00:58:39.222 --> 00:58:40.403
a shock and awe package,
00:58:40.744 --> 00:58:42.664
like some physical package in the mail.
00:58:42.724 --> 00:58:44.025
You should have their home address.
00:58:44.346 --> 00:58:45.485
Send them something, like send them...
00:58:46.666 --> 00:58:47.487
I don't know here.
00:58:47.507 --> 00:58:48.668
The bouquet of flowers are
00:58:48.728 --> 00:58:50.070
like anywhere from twenty
00:58:50.110 --> 00:58:51.010
five to fifty bucks.
00:58:51.030 --> 00:58:51.871
I don't know where you're at
00:58:51.972 --> 00:58:53.652
or you got twenty bucks, thirty bucks,
00:58:53.672 --> 00:58:53.932
whatever.
00:58:54.333 --> 00:58:55.034
It's nothing.
00:58:55.114 --> 00:58:56.456
It's nothing to reactivate someone.
00:58:56.496 --> 00:58:57.637
Send them something physical.
00:58:58.056 --> 00:58:59.217
Drop it off at their work.
00:58:59.237 --> 00:59:00.199
Drop it off at their home.
00:59:00.579 --> 00:59:01.320
You know, I don't know,
00:59:01.400 --> 00:59:02.541
cookie something healthy,
00:59:03.481 --> 00:59:04.262
edible arrangements.
00:59:04.682 --> 00:59:05.664
That's my parting shot.
00:59:06.172 --> 00:59:07.393
There's an app that'll actually do that.
00:59:07.413 --> 00:59:09.795
It's called Thanks, T-H-N-K-S.
00:59:09.855 --> 00:59:10.195
Essentially,
00:59:10.215 --> 00:59:11.056
you go in there and you're like,
00:59:11.597 --> 00:59:12.458
it's essentially that.
00:59:12.518 --> 00:59:12.777
It's like,
00:59:13.197 --> 00:59:14.318
we've got a list of all those
00:59:14.358 --> 00:59:15.260
things that would make that
00:59:15.320 --> 00:59:16.780
touch and we can do that.
00:59:16.922 --> 00:59:17.481
So you're welcome.
00:59:17.882 --> 00:59:18.222
I would say,
00:59:18.282 --> 00:59:21.204
I always share the best advice for like,
00:59:22.005 --> 00:59:22.766
what I need to hear.
00:59:23.266 --> 00:59:24.467
So I need to let some things
00:59:24.487 --> 00:59:26.768
go and focus more on the twenty, right?
00:59:26.807 --> 00:59:27.628
Focus more on the twenty
00:59:27.648 --> 00:59:28.487
percent of my efforts
00:59:28.547 --> 00:59:29.108
that'll bring eighty
00:59:29.148 --> 00:59:29.849
percent of my results.
00:59:30.188 --> 00:59:30.889
And the only reason I
00:59:30.909 --> 00:59:32.168
haven't done that is
00:59:32.228 --> 00:59:33.769
psychology and emotion.
00:59:34.949 --> 00:59:35.989
We'll be back on Thursday.
00:59:36.050 --> 00:59:36.791
I do want to say, hey,
00:59:36.811 --> 00:59:37.891
that Dana Strauss episode
00:59:37.911 --> 00:59:38.731
on value-based care that
00:59:38.771 --> 00:59:39.371
came out yesterday,
00:59:39.391 --> 00:59:40.072
if you guys want to take a
00:59:40.092 --> 00:59:40.512
listen to that.
00:59:40.771 --> 00:59:41.652
We'll be back on Thursday.
00:59:41.672 --> 00:59:42.211
And what are we going to
00:59:42.231 --> 00:59:42.952
talk about on Thursday?
00:59:43.052 --> 00:59:43.552
Really, like,
00:59:44.112 --> 00:59:47.416
Paying attention to the role
00:59:47.436 --> 00:59:48.197
of a therapist.
00:59:48.998 --> 00:59:50.259
Should therapists do what
00:59:50.358 --> 00:59:51.460
they believe the patient
00:59:51.480 --> 00:59:54.282
needs or what the patient wants to do?
00:59:55.083 --> 00:59:56.304
The answer is somewhere in the middle.
00:59:56.324 --> 00:59:57.965
All right, we'll see you guys on Thursday.
