Question

Anyone successfully sold a Chiropractic & Physical Therapy business? What was the process like?

I'm thinking about selling my Chiropractic & Physical Therapy business in the next 12-18 months. We're doing about $1.2M in revenue with 15-18% net margins. I have no idea where to start — broker vs. private sale, what multiple to expect, how to prep the business. Any advice from people who've been through it?

Free financial template I use to track my Chiropractic & Physical Therapy business

Created a spreadsheet template that tracks all the key metrics for a Chiropractic & Physical Therapy business — revenue per service type, customer acquisition cost, employee productivity, monthly P&L, and cash flow projections. Been using it for 2 years and it's helped me make much better decisions. Happy to share the framework with anyone who wants it.

3 things that doubled our revenue in Chiropractic & Physical Therapy

After 5 years of slow growth, we made three changes that took us from $500K to $1M in 18 months: (1) Raised prices 20% and positioned as premium, (2) Implemented a referral program that pays $50 per new customer, (3) Added a recurring service plan that now makes up 40% of our revenue. The recurring revenue was the biggest game changer — predictable cash flow changed everything.

Customer retention hack that works great in Chiropractic & Physical Therapy

Started sending handwritten thank-you cards to every new customer with a $20 gift card for their next visit. Costs us about $25 per card total. Our repeat customer rate went from 35% to 58% in 6 months. The ROI is insane when you calculate lifetime customer value. Simple but nobody does it.

Insurance costs for Chiropractic & Physical Therapy — anyone found better rates?

Our general liability and workers comp premiums went up 25% at renewal. We're paying almost $18K/year now for a Chiropractic & Physical Therapy business with 8 employees. Feels excessive. Has anyone had luck shopping around or found a good broker who specializes in our industry?

Books every Chiropractic & Physical Therapy business owner should read

Just finished "The E-Myth Revisited" and it completely changed how I think about my Chiropractic & Physical Therapy business. Also highly recommend "Profit First" for managing cash flow, "Traction" for building systems, and "Never Lose a Customer Again" for retention strategies. These four books have had more impact on my business than any course or seminar I've attended.

Marketing budget for Chiropractic & Physical Therapy — what percentage of revenue do you spend?

I've heard everything from 5% to 15% of revenue for marketing. We're currently at about 3% and I know we need to increase it, but I want to make sure I'm spending it in the right places. What's your marketing budget and where does it go?

How I reduced overhead by 30% in my Chiropractic & Physical Therapy business

Spent last quarter doing a deep dive into our expenses and found we were bleeding money in places I never expected. Renegotiated our lease (saved $800/month), switched to a cheaper payment processor (saved $200/month), eliminated 3 software subscriptions we barely used ($350/month), and restructured our scheduling to reduce overtime. Total savings: about $4K/month on a business doing $60K/month.

How do you handle negative reviews in Chiropractic & Physical Therapy?

Got hit with a 1-star review on Google last week that's completely unfair. The customer is exaggerating and it's already affecting our calls. We had a 4.8 rating and now it dropped to 4.6. How do you all handle this? Respond publicly? Try to get it removed?
