You’ll work out specific opportunities for improvement of these systems and tools and how to increase efficiencies in your practice.

Catch Up Hive News

Scary thought … There’s 11 weeks to go until Christmas!

There’s been lots of activity at The Hive this year.  We are currently transitioning members to our Hive Essentials Membership and you should receive a call, if you haven’t already, to get things rolling. More details below …

We really enjoyed seeing faces old and new at our Private Practice RESET Workshops at the end of September… It’s always such a great time for us to reconnect with our current members and to welcome new people into the fold and most importantly… to reinforce what we are about… and thats transforming practitioners into successful business owners.

The last Mastermind workshops of the year are fast approaching and will be held at the Bournemouth Hilton and Perth Convention Centre next month … Standard Hive members please keep an eye out for an opportunity to purchase tickets to day 1.

The Hive …
Business Essentials

All members are currently being  transitioned over to the Business Essentials Membership…

The aim will be to guarantee that all Hive members will recoup the equivalent of their monthly investment (at a minimum) in savings on items that you already have to purchase for the practice.

The Hive Business Essentials Trial

The new buyers group trial was conducted with about a dozen practices (including Troy’s practice in Toowoomba) over the past 3 months.  The group average save is running at 22% (on existing expenses) across the following areas:

  • Insurance
  • Phone
  • Printer management
  • IT contractors 
  • Stationery
  • Consumables
  • Consumer finance – Zip Pay
  • Uniforms
  • Electricity
WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?

We want to make Hive Membership a no-brainer from the perspective that we can guarantee at least a recoupment of membership fees in savings, with the added benefit of having business training, done for you documents and a community of like-minded mentors and practitioners to tap in to.

HOW MUCH WILL The Hive Business Essentials Cost?
The pricing is currently locked in at $198 per month (GST Included) which is the same as the existing Hive membership now, and existing and new clients will retain this pricing even past the end of this year when the cost increases.

GETTING STARTED in October 2018
We have started transitioning memberships this month, and we’ll be in touch to make an appointment with you to assess which expense areas we can negotiate for savings.

If you have your invoices available to be able to send through it will help get things started quickly for an invoice comparison.  We’ll then negotiate on your behalf to see what you can save, and line up deals.

At your end it’s possible you may have to talk to some of the suppliers direct if you have some really specific custom requirements.

READY TO START NOW?
If you’re ready to go straight away, please request an early start by phoning Melissa on 0434 287 816 or email her at melissa@hivepractice.com

Team Models – The Personalities That Create A Health Practice Team

Search the internet for the ideal team makeup and you’ll find endless examples about team models. The team model will give you an understanding about how teams develop.

In sport and business and even in families, it’s really important to identify the types of roles that are played in teams and to understand when they are useful to us and when they are not.

How to Conduct Due Diligence on a Practice to Buy or Prepare to Sell

Due diligence is an investigation of a business or person prior to signing a contract, or an act with a certain standard of care.  Think of it like an audit.

It can be an area that tends to get glossed over but it should be taken seriously and there is a process that should be followed.  I would encourage you to spend a bit of time on because I’ve seen a few disasters in my time
