Book by WCA Board member called 'amazing'
If there were such a
thing as a chiropractic "best‑seller list," the new book written by J.
Zimmerman, DC, a member of the World Chiropractic Alliance International
Board of Directors, would be rising to the top of the charts.
"The Working
Chiropractor's 4‑Part Course" To fulfill its promise to help doctors build a
booming practice in 24 easy steps, the book provides step‑by‑step
instructions on such topics as:
*** Giving a Report of
Findings
*** Marketing Your
Practice
*** Community Outreach
*** Building Your
Practice From Above, Down & Inside Out
The book also contains
forms, examples and samples.
The easy‑to‑read volume
is filled with humor that sets it apart from so many of the dry texts on the
market today. The Course is based on solid patient education procedures and
an internal and external marketing program that can be implemented at little
or no cost.
Dr. Zimmerman notes
that the procedures have been tested over time and proven to be effective,
ethical ways to build a chiropractic practice.
"No more struggling or
stagnation," he explains. "No more expensive programs to implement, or
tedious marketing campaigns to endure. Whether you're a brand new doctor or
a long‑time practitioner, you'll benefit from this valuable information."
Zimmerman is a 1988
graduate of Life University and lectures internationally on his chiropractic
educational procedures and continues to develop new and exciting ways to
teach his patients the benefits of a healthy chiropractic lifestyle.
Doctors around the
world have been quick to praise the book.
Dr. Tony Palermo, head
of 2X+1 Chiropractic Mastermind and popular chiropractic speaker, urged
doctors to use the book.
"This amazing volume
contains a comprehensive 'easy as pie' recipe for success in today's
chiropractic practice. Your staff, your practice members, your community and
YOU will advance lesson by lesson into the world of exceptional patient
education," said Dr. Palermo. "Buy, read and own Dr. Zimmerman's knowledge
and consciousness and please put it into action... there are minds and
bodies starving for this information!"
Tammy Verlaan, DC,
admitted: "For those of us who want to reach our communities, it can
sometimes be a little daunting. Now that I have the tried and tested tools
to go out and do this, it makes it all seem so easy. I would highly
recommend this book to all chiropractors and chiropractic assistants."
Adding to the applause
was Timothy Feuling, president of Chiropractic Benefit Services.
"I consistently hear
chiropractors in search of ways to grow their practice, to increase their
patient flow, to make more money," stated Feuling. "I can't emphasize the
importance of having coaches in your business. Now you can buy this book, in
addition to the coaching you get ‑‑ and pick up a plethora of very creative
ways to build your practice and your income at the same time."
Even patients have
voiced their approval of the book.
"I am not a
chiropractor or involved in chiropractic in any way," Mike Binnetti told
Zimmerman. "I saw your book advertised on your website, so I bought it. I
thought it would be a book about gimmicks and tricks to make money at the
expense of patients. Well, let me tell you, nothing like that at all was in
this book. It was honest and ethical. More importantly it taught me about
what chiropractic really is. I am now under chiropractic care. Thank you."
