The Secret to Growing Your Practice With Less Stress and More Freedom?
A Customised Practice Growth Roadmap That Gets Your Working Hours, Patients Numbers and Profit Where YOU Want Them to Be.
I'm Nicola McLennan, an Osteopath, Google Nerd and Award Winning Business Coach
I want to talk to you about your practice (and your life).
The majority of practitioners that I speak with are having a ânot enough issue.â
đđź Not enough new patients for yourself or your team
đđźÂ Not enough profits (especially considering the hours you're putting in)
đđźÂ Not enough bookings in your associate's calendar
đđźÂ Not enough associates out there... so you can't recruit
đđźÂ Not enough in the pot to put money aside for the future
đđźÂ Not enough time with your family or enough time off
đđź Not enough teamwork and systems so everything relies on you
But what does enough even look like?
It's different for everyone.
Enough might be the ability to reduce your hours, slow down and take a breath once in a whileâŚpick your kids up from school and take that yoga class youâve had your eye on forever.
Enough could mean opening a 2nd or 3rd location and investing in premium treatment options. Â
Enough might be slowing down and making space for rest or scaling up and being unapologetically ambitious.
Because enough is different for everyone, every practitionerâs practice growth journey is different.
There's no magic pill or secret sizzling system that scales practices overnight or a one-size-fits-all fantasy answer.Â
Why?
Because your practice is different.
Where you are starting from is different and what enough looks like for you is different.
If you'd like to discuss what your practice growth journey could look like, from where your business is now, to where you'd really like it to be, then book a Practice Growth call.
On the call, we will create your âPractice Growth Roadmapâ that will plot your exact journey from where you are today to where youâd like to get your practice.Â
Not sure exactly where you want to get your practice to? Just know deep down that something has to change?
Don't worry.
We''ll work this out together on the call.
I've been where you are...here's what changed

Â
I graduated as a Registered Osteopath in 2002. I jumped straight into setting up my own practice and a year later got a loan and bought a list from one of my principal's who was retiring.
Fast forward 5-7 years, I was working flat out, often with patients until 9pm four nights a week and I was miserable.  It wasn't fun.
At that point IÂ discovered 2 things:Â
1) Burnout - from long hours squeezing too many patients into a day.
2) My clinic wasn't a business - every aspect of my clinic relied on me. It was job that offered no sick or holiday pay and required long anti-social working hours.Â
This took it's toll ...medication for migraines, rushing back to clinic after a family funeral to treat patients, poor sleep, celebrating cancellations with a nap and feeling miserable and tired.
I made it my mission to:
- figure out how to build the clinic up
- reduce my patient hoursÂ
- take advantage of digital marketing.Â
I invested 1000s of hours and pounds, learning about systems, time management, Google Ads, website optimisation.
Result? - I built the practice and hired team members. I eventually sold my clinic for more than 10 times what I paid for it and moved into my dream house and became a certification business coach.
In 2023 I won Business Coach of the Year at the National Entrepreneurs Awards in the UK.Â
This dramatic change has given me the financial freedom and time to help other clinic owners apply all that I have learned, so they could do the same.
Here's What Other Clinic Owners Have to Say

"100% Recommend Coaching With Nicola"
I had no work-life balance, was working very long hours but wanted to grow and open a new clinic.
I have successfully hired new associates, have way more structure to my business, and a clear plan and roadmap for the future.
I'd absolutely 100% recommend coaching with Nicola.
Peter, Osteopath, UK

"We are So Busy Now"
The business changed after covid, the way people advertise all went on and I had no experience with online stuff. I was struggling to keep the team busy.
I now look at the business with fresh eyes and learning new skills constantly. Myself and the team are consistently very busy now.
Don't hesitate, just do it!
Susanna Lindsey, Podiatrist, Wales

"Don’t stay stuck, take the leap. It’s totally worth it."
I was struggling to bring in new patients and wanted a plan for me to reduce, my clinical hours while still having a business open 6 days a week. I wanted to be able to work on the business not in the business.
I have reduced my clinic hours to zero. The clinic is open 6 days a week. We’ve had our 3 most profitable months and have a second clinic opening soon, all in the space of 15 months.
If you are nervous or unsure about joining like I was… Take the leap, don’t continue to stay stuck.
Jordan, Sports Therapist, UK

"Time well spent."
I needed help to create and optimise systems in my clinic, mentor staff and bring the clinic’s online marketing presence up-to-date . The program gave me a step-by-step approach and help to implement and build great systems in my practice… Time well spent.
Marco, Physio, Canada

"Don't just plod on and hope that word of mouth will keep your business going"
I had a lack of knowledge and no confidence on digital marketing. I had no specific practice of monitoring the business,
Everything has changed since I started coaching. I am far more confident with marketing, monitoring the business, lead and inquiries. Profits are up!!
Don't just plod on and hope that word of mouth will keep your business going. It will give you an entirely different outlook for your business.
Marion, Osteopath, Wales

"She's worth the money"
I was in a prolonged and difficult period of transition in my practice and Nicola really helped me get through it.
I have more structure and know where the business is heading and how to get it there.
She's worth the money...but you need to pull your finger out...otherwise it's wasted on you.
Ryan, Osteopath, Newcastle

"It's brilliant to have a coach to keep you continually moving forwards"
We wanted some external and impartial guidance to help us achieve our goals.
We have improved and streamlined our services further, and have a clear plan and view and how and when we'll reach our next goals.
It can be hard work but it's brilliant to have a coach such as Nicola to keep you focussed and enthusiastic and continually moving forwards.
Jo, Osteopath, Glasgow

"I am so much more focused and have more time for myself"
I was not busy enough, not sure what needed to happen, and confused by online marketing.
I am now consistently very busy, much more focused with a system to monitor progress, AND have more time for myself.
I would definitely recommend Nicola, who offers a systematic method to increase your practice and focus on what is necessary to reach your goals.
Stephanie, Osteopath, West Sussex

"Successfully recruited an associate + Set up Online Marketing Properly"
I was having difficulty recruiting an associate osteopath and poor results from online marketing. I know the full profit potential of business not being met.
Since being in the program I have successfully recruited an associate, we are implementing treatment plans and have new online marketing campaigns in the pipeline. The coaching sessions have put the business at the front of my mind.
You have everything to gain and nothing to lose. Nicola knows the challenges we all face, and has tried-and-tested formulas for overcoming these challenges. Nicola is approachable, understanding and always has an answer for even the most difficult business conundrums.
James, Osteopath, Kent

"All in one solution For Healthcare Practices - itâs amazing!"
We wanted to increase patient numbers at our osteopathy clinic.
Nicola and her team provide an all in one solution for osteoâs, physioâs or similar healthcare practice. Iâve wasted thousands of dollars on other things that didn't work, but with Nicolaâs industry knowledge being an osteopath who has run a practice and now an Adwords expert, she is able to tailor campaigns perfectly to our industry. Nicola has been amazing. If it wasn't for her and this program, our clinic wouldn't be where it is now - looking to hire more osteopaths because our current ones are all busy.
Cameron, Melbourne, Glasgow
