Why Chiropractors Need Coaching

In this episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast, the business and marketing podcast for chiropractors, Jerry Kennedy dives into the topic of chiropractic coaching—why it’s essential, the different types available, and how to determine what coaching makes the most sense for your practice.
With the new year approaching, now is the perfect time to identify areas for growth and set yourself up for success.

Key Takeaways:
1. Why Chiropractic Coaching Matters:
Chiropractic college prepares you to pass boards, not to thrive in the real world.
The chiropractor you are when you graduate is not the one you need to be to succeed long-term.
Ongoing coaching, education, and habit development are critical for growth.
2. Types of Chiropractic Coaching:
Business Coaching: Learn the basics of running a chiropractic practice.
Clinical Coaching: Improve patient management and human interaction skills.
Marketing & Branding: Develop a unique value proposition to attract your ideal patients.
Mindset & Personal Development: Build leadership skills and overcome mental roadblocks.
Sales & Communication: Refine how you present value and gain patient agreement.
Niche-Specific Coaching: Focus on specialized techniques or services, like pediatrics or sports chiropractic.
Technology & Systems Coaching: Maximize the tools and software you’re already using.
Compliance & Legal Coaching: Ensure your paperwork and billing practices are up to par.
3. Choosing the Right Coaching for You:
Identify your most pressing challenges (e.g., patient acquisition, clinical skills, or billing issues).
Start with affordable or free options (e.g., podcasts, books) if finances are tight.
Invest strategically in coaching that aligns with your current goals and budget.
4. Jerry’s Advice:
Avoid rushing into expensive programs without proof of concept or financial stability.
Take action—don’t just learn, but apply what you’ve learned.
Your practice can only grow as much as you do, so prioritize personal and professional development.
