The Paul Gough Audio Experience: Business Lessons for Physical Therapists

In this one, I share with you the story of one of the most ambitious and success-hungry PTs I've ever worked with. You're about to hear from Keith Roed - of Impact PT in Sioux City, Iowa - as he presents to the room at last year's PPM LIVE (23) in Orlando. At each event, I invite 5 clients to the stage to share with the room their best lessons on growing a business as well as what worked in marketing to help them become so successful.    Keith's story is one I will never forget: He called me in 2018 after handing in his resignation at the clinic where he worked at the time with the goal of starting his own clinic. The owner told him "You will never make it work"... Keith laughed and said "Watch me"... Anyways, fast forward a few years, and Keith has a 7-figure practice that is THRIVING.    There's so much to learn from this podcast... be sure to listen to it more than once!    See ya' at PPM LIVE 24?

In this one, I share with you some amazing highlights from the keynote session James Lawrence gave at PPM LIVE in 2022. My favorite was when James spoke about it being ok to have a "five-minute pity party - but no more". The best thing about this Podcast is not just the content, but the story behind how James was the INSPIRATION for the amazing Chris Nikic - who happens to be the speaker at PPM LIVE 24. Turn me up nice and loud to listen to how it all works... 

In this one I share with you LIVE footage from when we had Dan Kennedy - the worlds No.1 Marketing Expert and  guy who taught me everything I know about Marketing - on my stage at PPM LIVE. One of the things I got from Dan was the ability to make myself immune from criticism. Easier said than done, especially when you're in pursuit of a successful business that means you have to say and do things that lots of people don't agree with and we live in a world where most people have nothing else to do but pull other down. Dan taught me that almost all people's opinions are irrelevant. It's one of the best SKILLS you'll ever develop. Turn us up nice and loud to hear more.

In this one I interview the amazing Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank... Kevin was the keynote speaker at my event a few years ago and today I am sharing with you some of the highlights of his session... Including: - Why Truthfulness is Your Best Business Strategy  - Non-Negotiable Standards: The Key to Entrepreneurial Success! - The Key to Great Leadership: Listen and Tell the Truth - Master Team Performance and Accountability If you're coming to PPM LIVE 24, this should get you excited... and if you're not, this is a taste of what you are going to be missing out on ... go here for tickets: www.ppmlive24.com and use coupon code "podcast" to save $100 on a ticket. 

In this one I share with you my own experience of meeting and working alongside Daymond John at one of the past PPM LIVE events. I got to spend an hour or so with Daymond before he went on stage to deliver a keynote, and I learned that he thinks RADICALLY different about time and how to make the most of it. I'll tell you more on the podcast. He then went on to talk about having just "27 summers left"... and what that really means to how he lives life. It blew the minds of everyone in the room. I'll let him tell you more about that one... turn us up nice and loud and enjoy the show.

In this one I RELIVE the magic of Marcus Lemonis - the Profit - who was last years headline speaker at PPM LIVE.    Marcus delivered real GOLD to the room - the type you expect from such a successful business owner - but it's what he shared with my KIDS before his talk that impressed me most…   See, Marcus gave my 7 year old the best lesson in business I could have wished for. Just before his keynote he took the time to explain to Tobias why although he'd made $300 at PPM LIVE (selling his daddy's books to the attendees), he wasn't able to KEEP all of that $300 as, “that's not how business works”…    Anyway, turn me up nice and loud to hear the full story, as well as listen to Marcus talk about:    - Why Employees Should Come Before Customers in Business   - Unlocking Confidence: Overcoming Insecurity and Delivering Tough Feedback   - Creating Generational Wealth…    After that, head over to PPMLIVE24.com and use the coupon code “podcast” to save $100 on a ticket to the big marketing event happening October 17-20 in Orlando. 

In this one I share 5 reasons why your team may be holding you back from the growth you crave. It's easy to think that it's all their fault, and that they're not good enough, but there's also the possibility that you - or your managers - aren't doing what you should be to grow their talent and develop their skills. Turn me up nice and loud as I explore the different reasons for your frustration with your team's progress.  Get PPM LIVE 24 tickets at: www.ppmlive24.com (use "podcast" to save $100)

In this one I go deep into the mind of people stuck at a life that is what you might call "average". They get to a certain point, but they can't seem to get beyond it. Life is "OK" but it's not amazing. It's had some success, but there's also lots of frustration.  In this podcast I describe a real-life situation I encountered with a PT who had quit her job but in the last 3 years hasn't been able to get her salary above that what she was making when employed.  There' s probably a lot of reasons for it, but one is that she's being held back what I call "shadow weaknesses" in her life that until recognized are a permanent source of frustration that delay progress. Millions of people live with one or more such weaknesses. I wonder if you can recognize any of what is happening to this PT in your own life??  Turn me up nice and loud and listen to the show.

Welcome back to the Podcast! After a summer of travel, I have a LOT to share with you on the podcast. The first is the massive disruption that is happening over at Google which is causing a big headache for Clinic owners who have relied upon it for over a decade.  The disruption is real. The question is, is it a temporary thing? Or, is this the end of Google Ads and that once very reliable platform being as effective as it once was?  As they say, "every dog has its day"... is it time to start planning for life without Google ads? On top of that, I share the amazing news about PPM LIVE 24 that is happening in Orlando, Oct 17-20... tune in to find out more about that and then book your seat at: www.ppmlive24.com (if you want my advice for which ticket, that will give you best value, book the "All Access" pass and come for FOUR days).  Go to: www.ppmlive24.com now and use the word "podcast" to save $100 on any ticket. 

In this one, you can hear from 4 of the leading PT business owners in the USA at our recent New Jersey event. One panellist, Ida Hirst, from California, shared how she was considering closure as costs continued to rise, and insurance reimbursements tumbled.

And a special mention to Michael Chin, Jason Han, and Lauren Manna who also shared their biggest lessons on their path to very successful, and very profitable physical therapy businesses.

In this one, I welcome Gina Fick, the founder of Fick PT and the newest “Paul of Famer”, onto the podcast to discuss her incredible journey as a mom of four leaving a corporate PT job to run her own 7-figure cash pay clinic. It's a crazy story and something that made us both laugh – Gina was told by the HEAD of the private practice association in Colorado that starting her own private practice would be the worst thing that she could do! AND that not accepting insurance would NEVER work – you couldn't write it! Thankfully, Gina didn't listen and instead took on the challenge to prove them wrong, and hasn't looked back. On the show, Gina talked about how she's had to grow as a leader, how to manage toxic employees, and her growth since finding Paul. For any physical therapy business owners looking to expand into bigger premises, Gina also shares the costly mistakes and important lessons from her move to a larger practice.

In this one, I welcome Michael Chin who has gone from waiting in line for progression at a corporate mill PT clinic to a 7-figure, cash-pay PT business owner in less than 4 years. If you're a PT business owner looking to grow your private practice, Michael Chin from the Bay Area, California, is an incredible example of what's possible for you. Like many, Michael started at a corporate PT clinic but rather than waiting for progression, he decided to start his own physical therapy business beginning with a small room in the corner of a gym. In less than 4 years, Michael has scaled to a fully cash-pay PT private practice with 5 staff and has reached 7-figures. Truly remarkable success, and an inspirational story. As well as life-changing growth in his business, Michael has become a true leader by hiring, reducing his treatment hours, and is now enjoying more quality time with his family - Michael's able to do the school run, read stories to his two daughters before bed, and go on stunning vacations. Turn us up nice and loud and enjoy the show. Want to get your private practice to the next level? Come to one of our next events in the UK, or the USA.

In this one, I talk to another TITAN of the UK Physiotherapy Profession - Phil Evans, of Solihull. We talk about how Phil used COVID as the turning point in his business career to move from solo practitioner to growing a real business, how he's built such a strong team that he trusts, and how he instilled a sales mentality into that team... Plus how he was able to more than DOUBLE his prices after a rather sobering moment at one of my mastermind events when he realized he was the LOWEST priced physio in the room. Phil has been a member of the Paul Gough Mastermind community since 2018 and it's been amazing to see his progress. He's a great guy and deserves every ounce of his success.

In this one, I interview the amazing Will Harlow. To say that Will is one of the most successful physios I've ever had the pleasure of working with is an understatement. Will first listened to this Podcast 8 years ago when he was a student... he had no intention of starting his own business but then everything changed when he was told by his manager in the NHS that he'd have to wait SEVEN years for a promotion.  He came back to his podcast and the Paul Gough Mastermind community to help him grow his business, hire staff, raise his prices. Alongside that, he's grown his YouTube channel to over 750,000, sold the rights to his book to one of the biggest publishing companies in the world, and now receives invites to speak all across the world. Turn this one up VERY loud and listen VERY carefully. If you want proof that hard work pays off and that running a successful, profitable physio clinic in the UK IS possible, this is the podcast you need to listen to.   *Will started his journey with me at one of my London events. the next chance to do that is June 7-8-9 at PPM LIVE in London.

In this one I talk to the amazing Dave Mott who grew his physio clinic from 1 person to 16 in less than 8 years. He's moved his clinic (in Bournemouth, UK) from being wholly reliant upon him, to patients happy to see his other 8 therapists. In this one we talk about the big decisions he's made, the lessons he's learned, and why he LOST a fortune on the back of a decision that happened as a result of his success.    Plus, be sure to listen to the end to find out about Dave's GOLD Packages that are being sold in his clinic and involve more than 50 sessions. This is an amazing podcast with a GREAT business owner that is not to be missed. If you're trying to grow past just you and maybe one or two staff, this is your BLUEPRINT for doing so.    Link to London PPM LIVE: www.ppmliveUK.com (June 7-9th) 

Is it right that ANYONE could work at your clinic for one week then quit and walk off with a list of all your patients and set up across the street the very next day?    The government seem to think so when this week they announced the END of non-compete agreements completely. They seem think it's “fair”. Do you?    In this one I ask whether or not the recent announcement by the Government to END NON COMPETE clauses is a good thing or a bad thing for small business owners. Is it progress? Or, is it more Government interference and yet ANOTHER attack on small business owners trying to make an honest living?    This one gets quite heated. Turn me up nice and loud and listen along.    Details of the London event (June 7-9): www.ppmliveuk.com    Details of the New Jersey Event (June 29-30): www.paulgough.com/jersey    Details of the new PhysioFunnels marketing platform: www.physiofunnels.com 

In this one I talk candidly with Chris Stankiewicz, a real TITAN of the UK Sports Injury and Physiotherapy Community. Chris started his business in 2016 - inspired by this Podcast (true story) - and has grown one of the most successful clinics in the UK.   In this podcast we spoke about how Chris achieved his success, the lessons he's learned since starting, solving the PEOPLE challenge, the second business he started with his WIFE...   ...what he did when his head therapist QUIT on the morning of annual planning...   ...why so many clinic owners in the UK struggle to grow past themselves, as well as the PRESSURE he was under that forced him to make a success of the business.    It's an amazing episode with an amazing clinic owner. Turn us up nice and loud and listen carefully - there's LOTS of great stuff on this one for you to learn from.    Details of the London PPM LIVE Event: ⁠www.ppmliveUK.com⁠ 

In this one, I tackle a huge concern for private practice owners worldwide - "my clinic is growing, but am I staying legal?". To answer this, I've got a special guest, legal expert and founder of Conscious Counsel, Cory Sterling with me, who talks us through the common pitfalls to avoid, and the essentials to consider as your private practice grows. Failing to comply with the law can leave you, and your business, open to hefty fines and reputation-crushing lawsuits that could shut down your private practice for good, so it's important to make sure you're covered. To speak to Cory, and his team, for any of your legal questions, head to www.consciouscounsel.ca now. Interested in our UK, or US event coming up in June? Head to www.ppmliveuk.com for London, or email paul@paulgough.com for New Jersey if you're an ambitious private practice owner looking to scale your business.

If you struggle with getting started, listen to this… If you feel like you need to have all the answers before starting, listen to this... If you want to make more progress than ever before listen to this…. In this one, I talk about why so many private practice owners (and people in general) get stuck spinning their wheels and making no progress. And I share the mindset shift needed to break through to the next level - and feel great while doing it!

In this one, I discuss the idea of being part of a “PHYSIO CULT” and explain why it's so important to create your own if you're a business owner.   The question “SHOULD you be part of a CULT?” was posed on social media lately and got a lot of responses. But I think most people missed the bigger point about what it really means to be part of a cult - and why it's SO IMPORTANT that you consciously create your own (both at home and in the practice). Turn me up nice and loud and enjoy the show…    If you want to hear more about our upcoming event in London, or if you want to learn more about PhysioFunnels, click the links below.   - PPM LIVE, London, June 7-9th: www.ppmliveuk.com  - PhysioFunnels: www.physiofunnels.com

In this one I tackle a post made by a DPT - Doctor or Physical Therapy - questioning the ethics of a Personal Trainer operating in a nearby gym who is using the term "DPT" (standing for 'Dynamic Personal Training'), in their marketing.    Do you think it's right? ... Do you think it's an issue for the profession?... Should it be something that is exclusive to PTs?  And, does it really make all that much difference if someone else uses it? Well, this PT (and many others) think it's "degrading" - and more.    Tune in to find out MY thoughts on the post that racked up a LOT of heated debate on Facebook from PTs around the world...    As mentioned on the Podcast, here's the dates for my next big events:    London, June 7-9th (www.ppmliveuk.com) New Jersey, 29-30th (email: paul@paulgough.com)    And, here's where to find the information on PhysioFunnels and getting your website and social media taken care of:    www.physiofunnels.com 

In this one, you can get the biggest lessons, shortcuts, and pitfalls, from five of the most successful private practice owners who attended our Las Vegas mastermind event. For this session, we welcomed five “PT turned successful entrepreneurs” to the stage to share their journey from growing from small clinics and solo practitioners to business owners that have multiple locations, a variety of cash-pay services, and managing big teams. Looking to grow your private practice in 2024, and finally earn the money and have the success you feel like you deserve?

In this one, you can learn from 4 of the most successful private practice owners in the UK who shared their best strategies and biggest lessons which have led to record-breaking achievements from the stage at February's PPM LIVE Dublin event.   For the packed room on Day 2 of PPM LIVE Dublin, this was an incredible session that inspired many with new ideas and mindset shifts, as well as helping clinic owners identify what mistakes they were making themselves in their private practice.   Paul also shared his thoughts when he joined the success panel on stage, and discussed what he believed is key to achieving success and growing a profitable and scalable physiotherapy clinic in 2024 and beyond. To learn more about growing a profitable, successful private practice, grab your copy of one of Paul's best selling books written from physio clinic owners like you at www.PaulGough.com/books 

In this one I cover 9 of the most important aspects if you're trying to scale a CASH Pay clinic, OR move from insurance to cash. One of the most interesting of the 9 is how well you can differentiate yourself from cheaper or insurance providers your patients are considering. Most people think it's about "better service" or being "better" at the clinical skills side of things. Easy to think that way, but it's definitely NOT that simple. If you want them to pay more they to hear more than "we're better".  I reveal what does make the difference, and more, on the podcast. Turn me up nice and loud and enjoy. About the new "Cash Pay Scale 24" event: It's taking place on March 8-9-10 in Las Vegas (Lake Las Vegas) and all of the details are here: www.CashPayScale.com. Simply fill out the form on the page if you want to apply for a seat. 

In this one I share with you SEVEN different ways you are probably/possibly losing money in your physio business. At this time of the year it's easy to think about all the places you want to make money - but what about where you are LOSING it? Isn't that more important? Let's fix the LEAKS before you add anything new (it's also a LOT easier to do so). In this one I also talk to about some upcoming LIVE (in person) events: The first is happening in Dublin, Feb 22-23 (where we will cover all the things in this podcast in much more detail). Go here for details on that event: www.ppmlivedublin.com ...as well the all new CASH PAY SCALE, 3-Day Marketing Plan event we've got coming up in Las Vegas, on March 8-10.

In this one I catch up on the last few weeks since PPM LIVE, reviewing some of the best things to happen at the event, as well as share the exciting news that we're coming to Dublin for a 2-day Marketing event on Dec 13-14th. Plus, don't miss the EPIC rant in this one where I call out the sheer HIPOCRISY of some physio's who are OK with going on STRIKE (in the UK) to get a pay rise, but are quick to criticize and judge business owners like you and I for learning how to market and sell (and give out selves an EARNED payrise). Tune in and enjoy the show. Details on Dublin are here: www.ppmlivedublin.com or email paul@paulgough.com

This one is for everyone who is coming to PPM LIVE... it's the official warm up to the SOLD OUT event that is bringing together 250 clinic owners from around the world. Here's how to get the best from it and what you can expect when you all get here... GROOVY.  If you want to attend PPM LIVE from your own office or home, access the virtual pass here: www.ppmlive23.com

In this one I speak to the amazing Steve Mclean, a physio clinic owner from Scotland. Steve's build an incredibly successful clinic and in this episode we talk about life now that he's ALMOST out of patient care and managing ten staff, lessons he's learned about dealing with RISK, and the new project he's involved with that is making it easier for clinic owners to make more money, become more efficient and scale with ease.    For full details on the new project mentioned during the show that Steve is involved with, go to: www.spryPT.com

In this one I answer questions from people interested in coming to PPM LIVE, as well as fend off a whole load of excuses as to why people who WANT TO COME, say they CAN'T! Is your excuse on here?    FYI, this is a very lighthearted look at how many excuses or reasons, although seemingly valid, really do nothing but get in the way of making a big decision that leads to a lot of PROGRESS.    Tip: this one might be worth listening to if nothing else but to learn how to handle ANY objection your clients give you about working with you.    Book your seats here: www.ppmlive23.com

There's a LOT of turmoil in the profession right now and this podcast has a solution for you.  Go here to book your seat for PPM LIVE 23: www.ppmlive23.com (in Orlando, October 19th-22nd)

This one comes hot on the heels of an "SOS" type conversation a member of my team had with a practice owner who, in her own words, is "$1,000's in debt and ready to close the practice." I don't give you advice to get out of debt or keep it open, only my thoughts on why such a thing happens in the first place in the hope you can avoid it or change course quickly if you think it's going to happen to you. And OH YEAH! It's the 600th EPISODE of the show. Thanks for listening this long... PPM LIVE details here: www.ppmlive23.com 

Just recently, I flew 2,200 miles from Orlando to LA for PHYSIO treatment on my hip, and that was in spite of the fact I could have seen a local physio, or simply ask one of my own to look at a long-standing hip injury. The reason why I did might surprise you but it's something that you can implement into your own life any time you are ready and I'm as certain as anything that when you do, you will see heightened success in life and business. Details of PPM LIVE are here: www.PPMLIVE23.com

In this one, I am live from LAX airport and about to fly to Orlando. I've spent the week with Jason Han of HealthFit in Pasadena (working on my hip) and during the week, I shared something with him that really seemed to resonate. It's about how to better manage your people and have better relationships with people in general. It's all revealed on today's episode. Enjoy. P.S - don't forget to book your seat for PPM Live in October... Go to www.ppmlive23.com now!

This one is for anyone who has ever felt guilty (that's everyone, lol!), or is perpetually plagued by it. See, some people live their whole life feeling guilty - even when they feel HAPPY, they feel guilty that they are. It's no way to live but so many do (especially in the Entrepreneurial world where we have so many people and things wanting our time - like our kids and families). A few years back, I decided to change my mind on feeling guilty and came up with a completely different way to think about it. These days I USE it to help me rather than hinder me and it's made my life so much easier to enjoy. Which is the point, right? Turn me up nice and loud as you listen and if you know someone who needs to hear this episode, please share it with them. Details of PPM LIVE 23 are here: www.ppmlive23.com 

In this one, we've pulled out some previous audio of the headline speaker of the upcoming PPM LIVE 23, Marcus Lemonis, talking about various different aspects of business ownership. From marketing, to finance and managing your personal life, and being vulnerable with customers; in this episode, Marcus covers some very important aspects of running a successful business and enjoying life that you need to know. This episode is designed to get you excited for the upcoming event. Marcus will be appearing LIVE and INPERSON on stage at PPM LIVE in Orlando, Florida, and every time he speaks, he gives a UNIQUE talk to the audience so you can be assured of something very special and authentic when you come to the event. All of the details of PPM LIVE 23 are here: www.ppmlive23.com and you can book up to five additional seats for your staff.  

In this one, I share with you the four different phases of progress - or transition - that practice owners like you find themselves in. From Denial, to Acceptance, Turbulence and Joy, there's a very good chance you're in one of them and especially if you're trying to make a big change like move away from insurance. As well as that I talk about the difference between "good busy" and "bad busy" and what the most important thing is whenever you're considering attending an event or a seminar. Turn me up nice and loud and enjoy the show. P.S If you're coming to PPM LIVE, and would like to be on this progress panel mentioned in the podcast, please let me know at paul@paulgough.com.

If you can hear the excitement in my voice in this episode it's because the excitement is real... It's time I get to announce who "Mr. X" is, the headline speaker at PPM LIVE in October, in Orlando.

To give you a clue: I'd describe this person as a cross between Tony Robbins and Kevin O'Leary. Any ideas? Listen to find out... Go here to book your seat: www.ppmlive23.com

In this one, I tackle the rumor that Marc Cuban is going to be the headline speaker at PPM LIVE 23 (www.ppmlive23.com), as well share a story about a DREADFUL service experience in Orlando at the weekend that I think is a sign of the new times that we're in. There's a big lesson in it for how you must run your business as well as what the TWO real threats to your business really are. 

In this one, I answer the question that everyone is asking me lately about whether or not Prince Harry is going to be the Keynote speaker at this year's PPM LIVE...
