Ep419. Why Patients Don’t Come Back (And What to Do About It). Angus Pyke
The real goal of the new patient visit isn’t to educate or impress. It’s to make your patient feel: Seen Heard Safe enough to trust you And hopeful about what’s possible When you nail those four things, everything gets easier. But when you miss even one? The report of findings becomes harder. The chances of them making it to a progress exam drop. And the path to long-term, lifetime care gets blocked—before it’s even begun. In this episode, I walk you through the 7 subtle mistakes that chiropractors make during the new patient visit—mistakes that quietly undermine trust, connection, and follow-through, even if the clinical care is excellent. You’ll learn: Why scripting might be hurting more than helping The one phrase that instantly deepens connection How to lead with authority without coming across as pushy And why the last 30 seconds of the visit might be the most important part These aren’t dramatic blunders—but they create friction you don’t need. Fix them, and you’ll set the stage for trust, ease, and long-term commitment—starting from visit one.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep417. The Reactivation Blueprint (Part 1): Do You Have a Practice Worth Returning To?. Angus Pyke
In this episode, I’m diving into one of the most overlooked growth strategies—reactivating your existing patients. But before we talk about campaigns and emails, we need to ask a more important question: Is your practice actually worth returning to? I’ll share a story about one of my long-term patients, Janet, and how her honest feedback changed how I think about recalls forever. I’ll also walk you through the tools I recommend—like the Net Promoter Score and exit surveys—to help you figure out what’s working, what’s not, and what your patients really value. Here’s what I cover: Why reactivation is an act of kindness, not just a marketing tactic What true retention means—and why it’s essential for a sustainable practice How to collect and interpret patient feedback without losing your identity The first steps to making your practice unforgettable Before we talk about how to bring people back, let’s make sure we’re giving them a great reason to return.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep416. The Broadcast Engine. How to Become Unmissable in Your Community. Angus Pyke
If you want a busier, more predictable, and more fulfilling chiropractic practice, it all starts with visibility. In this episode, we unpack the second pathway in the Visibility segment of the 7-Figure Lifestyle Triangle™—your Broadcast Engine™. You’ll learn how to consistently show up in a way that builds trust, creates connection, and makes you the obvious choice in your community. We’ll explore the three cylinders of your Broadcast Engine: Owned Media – Where trust is built (think websites and email). Rented Media – Where discovery happens (think social and YouTube). Borrowed Media – Where trust is transferred (think collabs and referrals). Plus, I’ll share: A quick checklist to evaluate if your website is actually working. The 3 content types every chiropractor should create. A relationship-based strategy that makes borrowed media easy—even if you hate self-promotion. If you’re ready to become unmissable, this one’s for you. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
