Business Support Programme
Most schools qualify you and wave goodbye. We stay.
Getting the diploma is the easy bit. The hard bit is the first six months, when you're qualified and the phone isn't ringing. That's the part we do with you.
The Business Support Programme is what happens after your diploma.
Booking system
Your own branded booking page. Clients pick a time and it lands straight in your diary, no messages back and forth.
CRM and client care
Client notes, reminders and follow-ups in one place, so repeat bookings stop depending on your memory.
Marketing support
Someone beside you working out what to say and where to say it, so the right people find you.
What's included
Everything you get when you join
No vague promises. Here's exactly what lands on your side of the table.
A branded booking system
Set up for you, with your treatments, your prices and your hours already in it.
CRM with reminders and follow-ups
Client history, automatic appointment reminders and follow-up messages after every treatment.
Your own signature client programme
We sit down with you and shape a six, eight or twelve week programme from what you're trained in and who you want to help.
Pricing and packaging help
We work out what to charge, how to package it and how to talk about the price without flinching.
Marketing plan and content help
What to post, what to send, who to talk to locally, and how to keep it going when you're busy treating clients.
Website and social presence
A simple, tidy online presence that tells people what you do and lets them book you.
One-to-one business calls
Regular calls with someone who has built a therapy practice, not a generic business coach.
Self-paced online course
The Therapist Start Up Business Support Programme, 17 lessons you can work through in your own time and come back to whenever you need it.
Ongoing support after year one
You don't get handed a folder and dropped. We stay in touch as your practice grows.
The personalised programme
We build a practice for you, not a certificate.
Before you start, we sit down with you for a proper chat. What you've trained in, what you did before this, the experience you're bringing. Then we shape it into something you can offer clients the week you qualify.
If you're trained in a few different things, we pull them together into one offer for one type of client, instead of a long list of treatments nobody knows how to choose from. By the end you can state it in one sentence, and it's usually something nobody else in your town is offering.
Why this exists
"It's your business, do what you like."
A woman who trained in biofacial massage went back to her tutor and asked for a bit of help getting started. That was the answer she got. No plan, no structure, just a certificate and a shrug.
We heard that story once too often, so we built the thing that was missing. Passing the exam is the easy part. Knowing what to charge, who to reach and how to get people back a second time is what nobody teaches you.
What's next for the programme
- Bringing the Business Support Programme to our other centres, so more graduates can access it wherever they train.
- An affiliation programme with other clinics and schools, who refer their qualified students into our business support.
- Ongoing group support so therapists keep growing after their first year in practice.
