Finishing School is like a key that unlocks painful shackles that prevent even the best DC's from experiencing the success and happiness they deserve. We suffer needlessly. I say this based on my own experience. As business owners, DC's need to learn the foundational truths of business. And that is exactly what Finishing School provides." Patrick Gentempo, Jr., D.C. Co-Founder of Chiro Business Finishing School

Why Chiro Business Finishing School?

You know the principles of chiropractic...but do you know the principles of business? There are many reasons why Chiro Business Finishing School is critical for DC's who want to have more fun, less stress and more profit. Here are a few important ones:

1. SUFFERING IS OPTIONAL:
   A fact of reality is that if you own a chiropractic practice, you are in business. For the most part, all of the training DC's receive in school and during post grad events is all clinically based. Even practice coaching and consulting is focused on procedures (consult, ROF, marketing, etc.) - but not on universal business principles. Therefore, DC's are competent to deliver a great service, but what about business structure and economic models? Here is where we are deficient. To show up every day in a business without understanding foundational business principles and deploying efficient economic strategies is to suffer day to day, week to week, year to year. To borrow a phrase DC's tell their communities, "we suffer needlessly". CHIRO BUSINESS FINISHING SCHOOL will end that suffering.

2. LOVE THE BUSINESS:
   Chiropractors will often express the sentiment, "I love chiropractic and I love my patients, I just hate the business!" The truth is...No Business = No Patients. No Business = No Chiropractic. You can't hate what makes what you love possible! This hellish contradiction translates at the very least into significant underperformance and very often, into burnout and failure. Learning the business principles of CHIRO BUSINESS FINISHING SCHOOL will help you "Love the Business"...and then, the business will love you back.

3. RICK SAPIO:
   Rick is not a consultant or public personality. Rick Sapio is Dr. Gentempo's business mentor. He is a guy who is the CEO of a holding company that has over 35 business holdings in it. He has been developing and practicing these business principles for years. Rick and Dr. G are in a weekly mastermind/accountability group together which is where Dr. Gentempo started learning and applying what Rick taught him. The impact was so profound, Dr. G. felt compelled to bring Rick to the chiropractic profession because the need and impact of what Rick teaches is so immense. Dr. Gentempo is quoted as saying, "After running 2 multi-million dollar businesses for many years, I felt I was pretty business savvy - especially in the field of chiropractic. I knew a lot about the tactics of running a chiropractic practice. Care plans, marketing, communications, etc. Indeed, I taught these things successfully to DC's for many years. However, what I didn't realize is that there was a deeper foundation to the understanding of business in general. Simple but profound principles that I learned from Rick Sapio. During the worst economy of my lifetime, these principles have had massive positive impact not only on my businesses, but my entire life because of the reduction of stress and the increase in efficiency and clarity with which everything functions. The crazy thing is how obvious these principles are. Sort of like chiropractic principles as they relate to health...simple, but profound and life-changing."

How does Finishing School work?

Finishing School is a membership-based, community of learners, who are committed to learning the "foundational principles of business" in order to grow their business, while also growing in their personal lives.

Here is how it works:

• Finishing School costs $229 per month for the first 12 months. These first 12 modules of the program are "The Foundational Principles of Business." After year one, you'll begin receiving the next 12 monthly modules, which comprise year 2. In year 2 you’ll receive 12 monthly modules on "Business Acceleration Training." Year 2 costs $147 per month, and you’ll receive advanced monthly modules to accelerate what you learned in year 1. Year 3 is dedicated to "Accountability," which is the foundation of success; and year 4 is focused on "Legacy," which focuses you on answering the following question: What do you want your business and personal legacy to be? Years 3 and 4 cost $97 per month.

• Each video module is co-hosted by Rick Sapio and Patrick Gentempo. In each module the monthly topic is presented and discussed in depth and then the application of that principle to chiropractic practice is taught. One new video module - along with an implementation guide/workbook - will be released to you each month.

• Twice per year, Dr. Patrick Gentempo and Rick Sapio will personally host a LIVE Business-Mastery Intensive Bootcamp. For more information about the most recent bootcamp and how to sign up, please go to our bootcamp website: www.ChiroFinishingSchool.com/Bootcamp.

• As a member of Chiro Business Finishing School, you will be placed into your own weekly accountability group at no extra cost to you. To learn more about the importance of accountability, please watch our FREE Module on Accountability groups by CLICKING HERE

• We also offer access to members of Finishing School to our Members Only Facebook group page, where you can connect with Rick, Patrick, and other chiropractors who are in the program.

• Finally we host monthly members-only tele-classes, exclusively for members of Finishing School. Rick will review a business quote of the month, a business principle of the month, and will answer your pre-submitted business questions.

	"Chiro Business Finishing School has been an amazing source of business knowledge. Information I've learned and implemented in my practice has radically improved our operations by making us more efficient and effective. Procedures such as 'values-based decision making' have helped to automate our business decision-making process. Decisions taking days to finalize are now made in an instant. Rick Sapio's teachings about 'management-by-objectives' allow me to manage, not micromanage, my staff. All 8 employees are crystal clear on what is expected of them and by when, which includes self-evaluation and knowing exactly how they are performing at any given time. Chiro Business Finishing School principles have freed-up my time to be used for its highest and best value. My practice immediately grew by over 25% and now my staff generates more new patients that I do all. I look forward to learning more." Amir Rashidian, D.C. MidAtlantic Clinic of Chiropractic Frederick, MD
"Start looking at yourself as the CEO of your own practice. Chiro Business Finishing School gives you the tools and the strategies to take your business to the next level, so you can REALLY make a bigger and more positive impact in the lives of others and in your community. I love the program." Nathalie Beauchamp, D.C. Beauchamp Chiropractic Ottawa, Canada
	"Chiro Business Finishing School has transformed our office. We utilize these business principles at staff meetings and trainings to hone our mission, vision and purpose. We now have all staff members engaged, motivated, and inspired to help us serve others. Starting with the 'doorman principle' and 'values-based decision making' helped us recognize that our values must match the decisions we make. Each meeting incorporates the 'management-by-objectives' goals for every team member, as well as our company as a whole. I have personally implemented all of the rhythms, rituals, habits, patterns, and meetings into my life; and put it to paper – very powerful. Chiro Business Finishing School will transform our profession." Mike Acanfora, D.C. Acanfora Chiropractic Bayonne, NJ
"I've been in practice 27 years, managed multiple offices and have been very successful. I have had many ups and downs. Chiro Business Finishing School is NOT a seminar or learning experience like any other. It is the foundation, the standards and principles of business which will allow you to make any of the other seminars a successful venture. I completed the first module about five weeks ago. The re-foundation I am creating from that module will certainly make me millions of dollars in the next few years! It will enable me to serve many more patients more effectively. Our offices are already being transformed and the result is a passion that is naturally coming forth from the entire staff." Steve Hoody, D.C. New York Total Health Centers New York City, NY
	"The most impressive thing about Chiro Business Finishing School is how tangible the advice is. After each recorded module I have a handful of axioms that I can start implementing in my practice immediately. Rick Sapio presents his knowledge in a very accessible, layperson manner. Salient examples on how to apply these business principles immediately to my chiropractic office are invaluable. Rick's clear presentation and focused message helps you marry principles to practice." Jessica Dietrich-Marsh, D.C. Southern Pines Chiropractic Center Pelham, AL
"Chiro Business Finishing School is the best business program I've been through BY FAR in my career. I have implemented many of the things taught; including a pay-for-performance system for our employees, so raises are not automatic. Most importantly, I have become clear on what I want, removed certain people and things in my life that did not contribute to achieving my goals, and I say NO far more often. My mantra lately is 'better small pain now, for long term benefit later vs. small benefit now for long term pain later.' Thanks for all you do!" David A. Packer, D.C. Precision Spinal Care Chesapeake, VA
	"I've been looking for Chiro Business Finishing School my whole life. Becoming a chiropractor has satisfied the 'helping people' part; and Chiro Business Finishing School is greatly assisting me to reach my goal of having a successful business. What's particularly helpful is Rick Sapio telling us how he lives his life and runs his businesses and then explaining how this information is integrated into practice. This is what makes the program so inspirational and invaluable. Chiro Business Finishing School turns the overwhelming process of learning to manage a business, into a plug and play system. As with anything worth doing, you have to do the work, but the CBFS roadmap makes the work efficient and effective. Thanks so much again and again." Paula Parker, D.C. Inspiration Chiropractic Studio Verona, NJ

FAQs

1. What's the PURPOSE of Finishing School?
   
   
   The catalyzing statement for Finishing School is...Making chiropractors the best trained business leaders in healthcare. Our staff is passionate about growing the chiropractic profession. We understand the need for more than 3% of the population to regularly see a chiropractor. If you could learn better business skills to grow your practice and to get the chiropractic message out on a larger scale, wouldn’t you? This is the purpose of Finishing School!!
2. What's different about Chiro Business Finishing School business training?
   
   
   Basically...everything! Finishing School isn't procedures based business training, i.e. "Use these forms! 'Say this,' in the consultation!" etc. Finishing School is about teaching you universal business principles, starting with "The 12 Foundational Principles of Business." Additionally, on the video modules, the facilitators demonstrate how each principle can be applied to your practice. These principles are simple in implementation, and mind-blowing in effectiveness. From the time DC's were in student clinic - to all of their practice management and coaching experiences - all that was learned were methods and procedures of how someone else ran a successful practice. Methods and procedures are important, but the foundations for methods and procedures to work maximally and efficiently must be proven business principles. This is what Chiro Business Finishing School is all about. It is sort of like the 'method' is to step on the brake and put the car in drive. But unless the engine is under the hood, the car doesn't move. Finishing School is a VERY high horsepower engine under the hood of your practice.
   
   Also, Finishing School is VERY affordable and is an online video course so it can be done effectively and at your own convenience.
3. Can learning online really be effective?
   
   

   For a fact, the answer is yes! We know this for sure because we've been involved in many educational programs over the years. Additionally, we've received many dozens of testimonials from satisfied business people from different parts of the world, doing this program. There are many advantages to learning this unique information online. They include:

   • Learning on your schedule. No two DC's have the same schedule. You want to be able to do this when your energy is high and you are in the right frame of mind as compared to having to do it because it is at a time you are forced to comply with.
   • It is critical to be able to review the material multiple times. Each month, one module/lesson is released and you can re-review it as many times as you like for as long as you are an active Finishing School enrollee.
   • Also, each Finishing School module comes with an Implementation Guide to support and secure your mastery of the material and your ability to implement it.
4. Do I really have time for this if I am super busy?
   
   
   If you are feeling like you are too busy to engage in Finishing School, it is a sure sign you need it! Owning a business/practice should be about freedom and so is Finishing School. Don't pass this opportunity to create more fun, less stress and more profit for yourself.
5. If I sign up and decide it is not right for me, can I get out?
   
   
   For sure. We are not asking you to take a risk in trusting us when we tell you that Chiro Business Finishing School will put you and your career on a profoundly better path. You can sign up and experience it for yourself and if after 60 days you don't think this was a fantastic decision on your part, you can cancel for a prompt refund.

Chiro Business Finishing School isn't just a program...

It's a CAUSE

Patrick Gentempo and Rick Sapio are on a mission with Chiro Business Finishing School. It is so obvious to us how big a void there is in the field regarding business training and how critical this information is for DC's, that we have decided to leverage this project into creating a better future for our profession...and here's how:

For every DC that pays to subscribe to Chiro Business Finishing School, CFS will donate one free scholarship to the program to a chiropractic student! Remember, this is a one-year scholarship, which covers the first 12 Modules of the program. Imagine thousands of chiropractic students coming out of school having mastered the most important principles of business. When you invest in yourself with Chiro Business Finishing School, you are also 'giving back' and investing in the future of the chiropractic profession.
