Starting My Practise

After lots of planning with the direction that I hoped to go down, with my new found SNHS Nutrition Qualifications, I started off as a mobile therapist, then sought out a place within the local area to practise from. This was a centre with other Complementary Therapists in practise. At this point I started advertising, via leaflet drops in all local supermarkets, door to door, street handouts, libraries, everywhere I could, and spoke to as many people as I could.

After 3 weeks of sitting waiting, my first 'potential client' rang and then I soon had to increase my half days to full days. During this time I kept up my reading and set about trying to achieve the ideas and goals that I had written in my 'little red book' and continued to read as much as I could.

It took lots of hard work and looking at my 'business plan' for direction and continuing to plan and make a note of developments and how I would continue to progress, knocking ideas that did not work 'on the head' and bringing forward other plans that I had in mind. After losing all my files through a computer virus, I was awaiting news of a magazine I had been pursuing.  So I decided to pick up the phone and 'take things in my own hands' so to speak.

All the chasing and work I had done had come to fruition and I had been selected to appear on the Expert Panel for Natural Health & Wellbeing Magazine. I have since gone on to write other articles and this is a route I shall be pursuing as it fits in nicely with my home environment with a husband and 3 children, and it also interests me very much.

At the outset I sought the help of a business advisor to 'bounce things off' and get a little direction, and rounded up some family members, for 'funds to get me started'.

I learnt that Word-of -Mouth is also very important and that results do not come overnight, so be prepared to 'hang in and hang on' for quiet months and for the practise and client base to build. I have also found that incorporating other complementary business ideas and therapies does help to attract more people, this is how my client base has been built and of course it is still developing.

Now I am up and running I can look back on the days mentioned above, a practise is always developing, it is up to me to identify opportunities as they present themselves and grasp all of these.
