My name is Dr. Eduard Burt, D.C. and I have been in active practice for 14 years. I manage six offices in a Greater San Francisco Bay Area and work three days a week. In a past 14 years I have applied the same organizational skills and marketing techniques in my practice as I did when I was in a student clinic at Life Chiropractic West.
My first chiropractic business success story starts when I was at a student clinic. We were given 15 months to finish all of the student clinic requirements. By applying my chiropractic skills and marketing techniques I was able to finish all of the requirements in six months. The rest of the nine months I was able to practice with a licensed chiropractor and build up my patient base prior to my graduation. My small practice at the time helped me to pay rent and pay the bills right after graduation. Time was clicking as the first student loan payment was due in six months.
In 2001 I have graduated from Life Chiropractic College West and began working in 2 locations as an independent contractor. Within first couple of years of practice my six figure student loan was paid off. At that point I became completely independent from a chiropractor and office procedures that he depended on.

1. GOOGLE KNOWLEDGE GRAPH
It is a white box that appears in a right upper corner of Google Search results. When you are looking for a brand, a person or a thing the information is being shown directly in search results without a need to click on any links. Google is closing that product and all of that information will be transferred to Wikidata which is a product of Wikipedia. The best Alternative for your online Chiropractic brand would be to have Google Plus Chiropractic Page or if you have Wikipedia account. I personally do not have Wikipedia account. Google Page alone works just perfectly fine for my practice. READ MORE

Chiropractic Marketing with Google + Collection is a Version of Pinterest Boards
Google+ pushed into Pinterest’s territory, introducing a new feature to enables users to organize content by category. Every Chiropractor should take advantage of this feature as it will help your followers find topics of interest in specific folders called Collections. I started playing with collection folders over this weekend by organizing some of my old posts. After playing with collection folders for 30 minutes I liked the feel and look of my page right away. Now followers on my Google Plus Burt Chiropractic Page can find what they want much easier. Google Collection gives people the ability to create a space for their favorite things broken down by topic. Collections can be shared publicly, privately or with a specific set of Google+ users. Collections can be followed and posts within Collections that users follow will appear in their home feeds on Google+. After a user or Page creates a Collection, a Collection tab will appear on given profile. Collections can be shared publicly, privately or with a particular user. The last option reminds me of dropbox.com experience. READ MORE …

Everyone is carrying smart smartphones in their pockets from Junior School Student to a retired individual. Some people do not even have a need for a personal computer. I phones, Droids, and Windows based phones are powerful enough to do every day’s tasks – email, texting, web surfing, video calls, video recording, photo shooting an editing, creating and signing documents, and hundreds of other applications.

It is amazing how fast technology has been moving forward. Our gadgets becoming thinner, lighter and faster every year. READ MORE …
