Discussion:Frank Salman or Dan Kennedy

I am thinking about purchasing a program. Not sure which on to get. Has anyone had success with either?

Thanks.

Good luck!

I am trying to set up my practice from scratch..was wondering if someone has tried Frank Salman's program and how effective is it? Also does anyone has experience with other practice development programs.

Thanks

Generally speaking, a person has to find his own way. When times is bad, there's many that will come around to take your last cent.

If you can make a sucker out of an accoutant, who is supposed to be pretty good at watching over money, you can make a sucker out of anyone I guess.

Basically, it depends on where you live, I suppose, if this works or not and if you have the personality to carry it off. Seems the guy in this article did an was successful.

I built mine from nothing. I simply did good old fashioned networking, church, referrals, word-of-mouth. Many of my clients have been with me through some very thick times with me recently and are sticking by me as they have been with me 20+ years. You can't buy loyalty.

I stay small now for many reasons, but most of all, I did it myself.

What happened to Dan Kennedy? He seemed to get lost somewhere. Or was he just a stooge to allow Frank Salman's name to be "marketed"?

Dan (if there is a Dan), please show yourself.

Could you describe your/Frank Salman marketing program and most especially the results that pleased you?

Frank has also been a good resource for advice as I have grown my practice. Once you purchase his program you have access to him at no additional charge. Everthing I accomplished with his program could have been done on my own, but it would have been a 2-3 year process instead of 60-90 days.

Look, use your own brain and a sincere approach and you'll be fine. Drop that pacifier. Linus needs to lose his blanket.

People don't like the canned approach, and I doubt you'll get a more sophisticated customer with a canned, memorized or cute approach. I guarantee you, I've heard them all before.

I can smell a canned speech from a mile away. Put lipstick on a pig, and it's still a pig.

But hey, I am not saying Frank or Dan don't give their moneysworth, maybe they've come up with a better mousetrap. I don't remember the two fellers contributing around here, so I couldn't speak for them, maybe they have, and I don't know who they are.

I have not tried the flyer again. There's a million ways to go at growing your practice. Unlike CrowJD, I think there is some merit in using other tools to speed up the growth process. There's nothing canned- just a systematic approach to guide you. You are still the driving force of whether a client signs on or not, but the system might help get them in the door a little faster than word of mouth. I was at a conference a couple of weeks ago & visited with a gentleman who has purchased Franks' & several other marketing systems. He has blended them all to get what he considers a good mix. Instead of calling business owners he stops & introduces himself every chance he gets. He said that he always gets a welcomed response since he is just stopping to say hi basically. Anytime he is out to visit a client or pick up supplies he stops at all surrounding businesses & leaves a card. Over time he has had a good response & you could do this without using a script!
