    3 Things Chiropractors Will Be Glad They Did...Just Not Right Away
    Nov 18 2025
    In this episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast I talk about three parts of practice that will completely change your business over time. These are not quick fixes. They are not instant wins. They will not solve your new patient problem this month. But if you make them a priority now, you will look back years from today and feel genuinely grateful that you started. Why Chiropractors Fixate on New Patients I start by talking about the profession's obsession with new patients. Every marketer, coach, and guru leads with new patient promises. You know the messages. They claim they can get you forty new patients a month or grow your practice instantly. New patients feel exciting. They create cash flow. They inflate your numbers. And they can cover up bad systems. Even a poorly run practice can survive if there is a constant stream of fresh bodies coming through the door. The problem is that running a practice this way is extremely stressful. If you ever have a slow month, the weaknesses in your systems show immediately. You never feel stable because the entire practice sits on top of a shaky foundation. You are always looking for the next new patient hit. The Purpose of This Episode I created this episode to help you shift your focus toward three long-term levers that make your practice healthier, steadier, and easier to run. These are not urgent. They do not give you a dopamine hit. But they are the building blocks of a business that does not fall apart when the new patient flow slows down. The three long-term levers are reviews, relationships, and retention. Why Reviews Matter More Than You Think Reviews are one of the easiest and most powerful things you can invest in. They help your local SEO. They help your conversion. They help Google understand what you are known for. They even help AI tools understand what people think about you. One of the biggest advantages reviews provide is the keywords hidden inside them. If your patients mention migraines, sciatica, pregnancy, sports injuries, or anything else, Google takes note. Those words help determine which searches you show up for. I tell the story of a client who asked me if they had too many reviews because they had several times more than every chiropractor in their area. My answer was simple. I would keep going. If I could have ten times more reviews than my competitors, I would not slow down for a second. Being the obvious choice in your community is never a disadvantage. The Power of Building Real Relationships Next I shift into the value of relationships. As an introvert this one has always been a challenge for me. I would rather sit at my computer than go out and meet new people. But chiropractic is a relationship business. We work with human beings. We serve a community. We depend on trust. Relationships with patients matter. Relationships with business owners matter. Relationships with coaches, trainers, teachers, community leaders, and other professionals matter. When people know you and have something good to say about you, everything becomes easier. New patients come more naturally. Opportunities show up. Referrals increase. Sometimes your relationship with a respected person in the community even creates a little bit of authority or credibility transfer. These relationships take time. They take intention. And they are absolutely worth it. Short Term Retention and Why It Affects Results Then I talk about short-term retention. This is not about long-term wellness care. This is simply helping someone stay consistent during their initial care. When you have a clear plan, patients get better results. They feel more connected to you. They are more likely to think of you as their chiropractor. Without a plan you swing between two extremes. You either forget to follow up with people and they slip away, or you accidentally harass them without realizing how many times you have reached out. A system keeps you in the middle where you are caring, consistent, and helpful without being annoying. Long Term Retention and Why It Stabilizes Your Practice Long-term retention does not blow up your numbers overnight, but it is one of the key stability builders in a mature practice. This is where you check in with people who have not been in for three months or six months or a year. You are not trying to guilt them. You are not trying to pressure them. You are simply serving as a reminder for people who actually need your help but have been busy or distracted. These occasional visits do not seem like much in the moment. But over the course of five or ten years, they create steady, predictable support for your practice. They also reinforce that you are their chiropractor even if they do not come in very often. A Reminder for the New Year I wrap up by reminding chiropractors that the best time to start these habits was years ago, but the next best time is right now. As we head into a new year, commit to being better in these three areas. You do not have to be perfect, ...

  • Chiropractors: Beware of Vanity Stats

    Chiropractors: Beware of Vanity Stats
    Nov 11 2025
    In this episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast, Jerry Kennedy dives into one of the biggest traps chiropractors fall into — chasing vanity stats. From gross income to new patient counts to website traffic, these numbers can look impressive on the surface but often lack the context that actually matters. Jerry shares hard-earned wisdom on how to separate meaningful metrics from meaningless ones, how to keep your ego in check, and how to focus on the numbers that truly move your practice forward. 1. What Are Vanity Stats? Jerry explains that vanity stats are numbers that sound impressive but don't actually reflect real success. These include: Gross income without expenses New patient counts without retention Website traffic without conversions Rankings without relevance Without proper context, these stats can create false confidence or unnecessary frustration. 2. Why Vanity Metrics Are Dangerous Vanity stats are seductive because they make chiropractors feel successful, but they can easily distort reality. Jerry warns that: People exaggerate or manipulate their numbers online. Gross income often hides massive overhead. Social media and professional circles amplify unrealistic comparisons. He shares a story about a chiropractor friend who appeared far more successful based on gross revenue but actually took home only a little more than Jerry — at the cost of massive stress and a complicated business. 3. The Comparison Trap Jerry compares vanity metrics to social media highlights — people showing their best moments and hiding the rest. Chiropractors often compare their unfiltered reality to someone else's filtered image of success, which leads to unnecessary frustration and burnout. He reminds listeners that success isn't defined by looking impressive — it's defined by how well your practice serves you, your patients, and your life. 4. Examples of Vanity Stats in Chiropractic Jerry gives real-world examples of chiropractic vanity stats and how they can mislead: Gross income: Without understanding expenses, it's meaningless. New patients per month: If retention is low, this stat is hollow. Patient visits per week: A high number doesn't mean success if fees are unsustainably low. Website traffic or Google ranking: Traffic that doesn't bring in new patients is worthless. He even shares how his own site once ranked for "ring dinger" searches — great traffic, but totally irrelevant for his business. 5. What Metrics Actually Matter Jerry offers practical guidance for what chiropractors should really focus on: Net income: What you actually take home. Expenses: Keep them tight; most chiropractors overspend. New patient origin: Know where people are finding you. New patient quality: Focus on patients who are a good fit for your care. Retention: Track how long patients stay and how often they return. These are the metrics that indicate the health and sustainability of your practice. 6. Jerry's Tips for Avoiding the Vanity Trap Don't believe every number you hear — most lack context or honesty. Don't brag about your stats — it feeds your ego but helps no one. Share stats only in a teaching environment — context is what makes them valuable. Focus on meaningful growth — not looking impressive to others. Keep your expectations grounded — unrealistic goals only cause frustration. Key Takeaway Vanity stats might look good on paper, but they won't make your practice better or your life easier. Focus on metrics that actually impact your income, your stress level, and your ability to serve patients well. Quotes to Remember "Gross income out of context doesn't mean anything." "You're comparing your real life to someone else's highlight reel — and you can't win that." "Your ego is not your friend." "Know your stats, focus on the ones that actually matter."

  • Why Can't Chiropractors Rank Well In Other Towns Besides Their Own?

    Why Can't Chiropractors Rank Well In Other Towns Besides Their Own?
    Oct 28 2025

    This episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast dives deep into one of the most common local SEO questions chiropractors ask me: "Why don't I rank in the town next to mine?" It's a simple question, but the answer isn't always what chiropractors expect.

    I start by explaining that local SEO is heavily influenced by proximity. Google knows exactly where your practice is located, so if you're in Chesterfield, Missouri, you're naturally going to rank best for "Chesterfield chiropractor." Ranking in a nearby town like Town and Country is possible, but difficult. The biggest factors that make it hard are your location, the density of chiropractors in the area, and how competitive their SEO is.

    I also talk about the few situations where ranking outside your city is possible. You might be able to do it if there aren't many chiropractors in that other town, if the ones there have poor SEO, or if you're located in a gray metro area where town borders overlap—like being technically outside of St. Louis but still part of the St. Louis metro.

    Then I shift gears to talk about smarter ways to expand your reach. You don't have to chase unrealistic ranking goals. Instead, you can focus on keywords that naturally extend your visibility—like "sports chiropractor," "chiropractor during pregnancy," or "chiropractor for kids." These kinds of searches reduce your competition because fewer chiropractors optimize for them, and they allow you to reach patients from a wider area.

    I also mention a tool called Local Falcon, which I use in my free website and SEO reviews. It's a great, affordable option for chiropractors who want to track their own local SEO and see how they're performing across different search areas.

    To wrap up, I remind chiropractors to go into SEO with realistic expectations. There's no secret trick or quick fix. If someone makes SEO sound easy or overly complicated, that's a red flag. The best strategy is to focus on strong local SEO for the area you're actually in, optimize for the services and terms that make you unique, and let that naturally radiate into surrounding areas.
