CBP 282: How to Reduce Drop-Offs and Get Staff to Do Exactly What You Ask of Them

The Cash-Based Practice Podcast

About

Every practice owner faces this at some point: you’ve got a great clinician, but their patients are dropping off way too early. You’ve given them the scripts, the strategies, the playbook… and yet nothing changes.

It’s frustrating—and it threatens both your revenue and your reputation.

Here’s the truth: most practice owners assume their staff are primarily motivated by money or job security. But often, that’s not the case. If you don’t figure out what really drives each team member, you’ll never unlock their full potential, get buy-in and compliance with your instructions —or reduce those costly drop-offs.

This week’s episode will show you exactly how to do it.

What You’re Getting Today

    The hidden trap: why money isn’t always the motivator

    The fix: tie desired behaviors to what your staff value most
