Sound familiar?

You're a great clinician. So why is the revenue still stuck?

Giving up your weekends to workshops and treatment hours just to get by
Patients hear your price and go find someone who takes insurance
You know what you do works — you just can't put it into words
Great clinician, but you freeze up when it comes to closing
Stuck at the same revenue month after month no matter what you try
Terrified to spend money on ads because you don't know if they'll work
Everything depends on you showing up every single day
Working 50+ hours a week just to maintain $10K

"After 2 years of trying to get my business off the ground I knew something different needed to be done. I was physically ill submitting payment — but it honestly was the single greatest thing I could have done to propel my business forward. Aside from increasing monthly revenue 3x, it gave me tools to streamline systems and gave me more of my time back."

— Tim Puckett, PT, DPT

The problem isn't your clinical skills. It isn't your market. It isn't even your prices. It's that nobody ever taught you the business and marketing system behind a cash-based practice that actually scales. That's exactly what this mini course delivers — in 50 minutes of video, completely free.

The 5 Foundations

What You'll Learn in Each Video

Each video is ~10 minutes. Each action step takes 2 minutes. Complete all 5 and you'll have the complete operational foundation for a cash-based practice.

1

Positioning: Why Patients Choose You Over the In-Network Clinic

10 min

Most cash-based PTs lose patients before the conversation even starts — not because of price, but because of how they're positioned. You'll learn how to clearly articulate what makes your practice different, why patients choose you over the clinic down the street that takes insurance, and how to build a positioning statement that does the selling before you ever pick up the phone.

Homework: Write your positioning statement and identify your #1 differentiator
2

Pricing: Charge What You're Worth Without Apology

10 min

The math-based pricing framework that tells you exactly what to charge at each tier — Evaluation, 6-Pack, 10-Pack, and 16-Pack — so you hit your monthly income goal every time. You'll plug in your real numbers and walk away with a price structure built on your goals, not your comfort zone or what your competitors charge.

Homework: Run your numbers through the Pricing Calculator and finalize your package structure
3

Conversion: Turn Evals Into Committed Plans of Care

10 min

Sales isn't pressure — it's clarity. You'll learn the exact enrollment framework our clients use to close 60–88% of qualified leads, including the 'What Happens If You Do Nothing?' technique that gets prospects to articulate their own future pain, how to handle the insurance objection without lowering your status, and why introverted PTs often outperform extroverts in discovery calls.

Homework: Map out your current eval-to-POC conversation and identify the one step you're skipping
4

Retention: Keep Patients Completing Their Full Plan

10 min

Getting a patient to start is only half the battle. You'll learn the exact check-in system, progress milestone framework, and re-enrollment conversation that keeps patients completing their full plan of care — so your revenue is predictable, your outcomes are better, and your referrals multiply automatically.

Homework: Identify your biggest drop-off point and write your retention touch point sequence
5

Referrals: Build a Word-of-Mouth Engine That Fills Your Schedule

10 min

The difference between practices that grind and practices that grow is one thing: a referral system. You'll learn the 3-step referral framework that turns every completed patient into a consistent source of new business — without awkward asks, discount incentives, or hoping they mention you to a friend.

Homework: Write your referral ask script and identify your top 10 referral sources

Your Guide Through the Mini Course

Meet Dr. Zaki Afzal

Dr. Zaki Afzal — Optimize Physical Therapy & Performance
$1.5M/Year Practice
Doctor of Physical TherapyFounder, Optimize PT & PerformanceLas Vegas, NV

Not long ago, Dr. Zaki was exactly where you are — a skilled clinician grinding through insurance-based PT, watching his expertise get undervalued by a system that wasn't built for patients or providers.

He became a Clinical Marketer client, built the systems, and never looked back. Today, he runs Optimize Physical Therapy & Performance — a multi-location, fully cash-based practice generating over $1.5M per year — treating the athletes and active adults he loves, on his own terms.

He's leading this mini course because he knows the exact moment everything clicked for him — and he wants to create that same moment for you. In 5 videos, he'll walk you through the same framework he used to build a practice most DPTs only dream about.

Real Results

The Results Speak for Themselves

These are cash-based PTs who were exactly where you are — and used this system to break through.

$10K → $60K+/month

"When I first started, I was a solo practitioner struggling to break past the 10k-a-month mark. Within just 3 months I saw my top-line revenue skyrocket by 20k. Now I'm hitting 60k+ months with a phenomenal team of 4 clinicians."

— Dr. Luke Greenwell, PT, DPT

3x Monthly Revenue

"I was physically ill submitting payment but it honestly was the single greatest thing I could have done to propel my business forward. Aside from increasing monthly revenue 3x, it gave me tools to streamline systems and gave me more of my time back."

— Tim Puckett, PT, DPT

5 visits/week → Hiring in 6 Months

"Within six months I went from barely seeing five visits per week and working part-time elsewhere to quitting all side jobs and being ready to hire another PT. I couldn't have reached this point even in two years on my own."

— Dr. Nathan Miller, PT, DPT

Doubled Revenue

"Within a short time, I doubled my revenue. That wasn't luck — it was the result of a clean, proven system that Clinical Marketer has dialed in. The $10k/month in 90 days guarantee isn't a gimmick; it's a target that's totally achievable."

— Mark

First $10K Month Before Running Ads

"November was my first $10k+ month — an all time record — and was achieved before launching any new ads. This growth was due to my increased confidence and perceived value of care."

— Dr. Eric Colucio, PT, DPT

Life-Changing Decision

"After 10 years in the outpatient clinic, I was completely burnt out. Working with Clinical Marketer was the best financial decision I have ever made. My only regret is that I didn't do it five years ago."

— Ben Wardell, PT, DPT

Doubled Caseload in 90 Days

"90 days later and I have doubled my case load and had 2 of the best months financially that I have had since being in business — no more contract work needed."

— Dr. Charles Benandi, PT, DPT

Fast-Track to Confidence

"This course is teaching me everything I could have imagined needing and more. It's put me on the fast track to building not just my clientele but my confidence in my ability to give this business a go."

— Dr. Becky, PT, DPT

Why 50 Minutes Changes Everything

Most cash-based PTs spend years figuring out what works through trial and error — expensive mistakes, wasted ad spend, patients who ghost after the eval. This mini course skips all of that.

In 5 videos of ~10 minutes each, you'll have the complete operational playbook: how to position your practice, price your packages, close your evals, retain your patients, and build a referral engine. Not theory — the exact system behind $10M in cash-pay packages sold.
