Today, Danny emphasizes the significance of time freedom and how entrepreneurship can lead to achieving it. He shares an amusing anecdote about his daughter's school performance, where she performed a trap version of "The Wheels on the Bus," to highlight this point. Dr. Danny also talks about how challenging it can be to take vacations while working for someone else, which is not the case for entrepreneurs who have the freedom to manage their time. Dr. Danny stresses that financial freedom precedes time freedom and that it is worth the exchange. He values being present for his daughter's school activities, coaching her teams, and traveling with her, which he can only achieve due to his freedom of time as an entrepreneur.

In this episode, Danny dives into the topic of raising prices as a means to increase revenue without increasing overhead. He emphasizes the importance of physical therapists charging an average hourly rate of $150 in order to be able to expand their business beyond themselves and maintain low volume. Furthermore, Danny encourages striving for a rate of $175-200 to allow for growth and hiring. Danny provides two strategies for raising prices, the first being a silent price raise where prices are simply adjusted without explanation. The second is a reactivation price raise, which involves reaching out to prior customers with an explanation of the price change and offering them the opportunity to purchase one package at the previous rate. He stresses the significance of painting a vision for the company and putting in the effort to reach out to prior customers instead of taking the lazy route. Danny concludes by encouraging physical therapists to take the initiative in raising their prices, as it benefits both themselves and their patients by allowing for fair compensation and improved quality of care. This episode offers valuable insight and practical advice for physical therapists considering a price raise.

What's up, everybody? Today, I wanted to get on here and talk about a trend I am seeing in physical therapy businesses that have scaled up over the past two years. When it comes to hiring, don't assume that every PT hired by you is going to be willing to work long hours, do workshops, and create content for your business. It is important to provide employees with a sense of security and stability in order to ensure that they will want to stay long-term. Don't put them in a risky situation because this will lead to them looking elsewhere. Enjoy!

Today, I am exploring the idea of fuel being used to power success in business and how work is not much different from the fuel used to power nutrition. When you examine yourself and the motivations behind your ambition, you have to be able to find some sort of motivating factor that is driving you.

People that make improvements in their businesses are action-takers. They don't procrastinate and they are quick to do things and get their hands dirty. People who stall out or plateau are procrastinators. In order to learn something, you have to apply it. This is true for everything from school to work to hobbies. Just because you've put time into learning something doesn't mean you know it. In order to be good at something, you have to allow yourself to be bad at it first. This means being okay with making mistakes and being open to feedback. Today, I get into the importance of learning vs doing. Enjoy!
