Welcome 👋

Hello, it’s Katie Bell here, and I’m thrilled to welcome you back to another episode of The Treat Your Business Podcast. Today, I’m diving into a topic that could completely transform your clinic’s growth: Visibility. In this noisy world, it’s not enough to be seen just seven times. It could take 20 or even 30 touch points before a client takes action. Let’s explore how to stay top of mind and top of the market.

Episode Summary 📈

In this episode, I share real-world examples, powerful strategies, and the essential mindset shifts you’ll need to ensure your clinic stands out. I talk about why being consistently visible is the secret to generating a steady flow of leads, and I reveal the pitfalls of relying on random acts of marketing or just word of mouth. I also open up about my own experiences, including a website crisis and how a multilayered visibility strategy saved the day. Plus, I give you a sneak peek into our live strategy days and explain why tracking what works is key. Visibility really is currency.

Key Takeaways 🗝️

• Consistency is everything. Random acts of marketing waste time and money.
• It now takes far more than seven touch points for clients to take action. Aim for 20 or 30.
• Know exactly where your ideal clients spend time and how to reach them.
• Offline marketing matters just as much as digital. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
• Track every lead and measure what’s actually working for your clinic.
• Your messaging must connect with what your clients are thinking. Focus on their problems, not just your solutions.
• Visibility comes in many forms: events, talks, joint ventures, referrals, and more.
• Protect your time so you can focus on being visible, not just busy.
• Don’t be afraid to fail or try new things. The key is to keep showing up.

Welcome to the Treat Your Business Podcast! 🎙️
This week, we’re diving into the mindset of a CEO and how to set boundaries that help you reclaim your time and energy. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in people-pleasing habits, or struggling to focus on growing your business, this episode is for you. Let’s get started!

Episode Summary
In this episode, we’re talking about the mindset shifts and practical steps you need to take to step into your role as a CEO and leader. We explore how setting strong boundaries and prioritising your time can help you scale your business and regain control of your life. You’ll learn why people-pleasing is holding you back, how to say no without guilt, and how to create systems that empower your clients while protecting your time.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re juggling too much, this episode will give you the permission and tools you need to make bold decisions and focus on what truly matters.

Key Takeaways
✨ Your time is your most valuable asset. Stop giving it away to tasks, people, or commitments that don’t align with your goals.
✨ People-pleasing often stems from a subconscious need for approval. Recognising this is the first step to breaking the cycle.
✨ Strong boundaries are an act of self-worth. They allow you to show up fully for the people and tasks that matter most.
✨ Educate your clients, team, and even your family on your boundaries. Clear communication is key.
✨ You are responsible to your clients, but not for them. Their results depend on their actions, not your sacrifices.
