Welcome to the Pursuing Private
Practice podcast!
Join Jennifer McGurk, the CEO of Pursuing Private Practice, and
Alyssa Callahan, the CEO of Nourished with Kindness,
to discuss the importance of systems in group practice. They both
share valuable insights and tips for implementing effective systems
in business. As a business owner, learning to navigate the
complexities of running a practice and being an entrepreneur is
crucial for success.
Join the conversation to learn more about:
- Navigating Insurance Systems: Taking insurance
in a group practice comes with its own set of challenges,
particularly in managing cash flow and dealing with insurance
companies. Alyssa shares her experience of a major issue with an
insurance contract and the impact it had on her practice. Despite
the challenges, she highlights the value of having multiple
insurance contracts to maintain stability in the business.
- Financial and HR Systems: In addition to
insurance systems, Alyssa discusses the importance of financial and
HR systems in her group practice. She emphasizes the use of a
reliable payroll system like Gusto for employee management and
payroll processing. Having effective HR systems in place ensures
smooth operations and supports the growth of the practice.
- The Importance of Skill
Building: Throughout the conversation, Alyssa
emphasizes the importance of skill building in creating and
managing systems. As a business owner, developing the skills to
handle challenges and implement effective systems is essential for
long-term success. Building a skill in system creation and
management allows for better problem-solving and decision-making in
the business.
- Employee Systems and Project Management
Tools: Alyssa shares her experience with Asana, a
project management tool that has transformed the way her team
operates. From onboarding to benefits checks, having the right
systems in place has made a significant impact on the efficiency
and success of her practice.
- Marketing and Onboarding Systems: Alyssa
also highlights the importance of marketing and onboarding systems
in her practice. From job descriptions to the interviewing
processes and onboarding procedures, having well-defined systems in
place has streamlined the hiring and training process for new team
members. These systems not only benefit the business but also
create a positive experience for employees.
Group practice is just one example of a scalable business offer.
