The ultimate goal of any acupuncturist is a fully booked appointment calendar. The years of training that are required for licensure as an acupuncturist should provide everything needed to achieve that goal, right? So why, less than five years after graduation, are more than half of acupuncture school graduates no longer practicing their craft?

The reason is often that, while you are well-trained in acupuncture itself, the business skills needed to be a successful entrepreneur have been sadly neglected. No longer! This book provides everything that you were not taught in school, with step-by-step instructions, lists, forms, calculations, examples, and specific procedures; things you won't find in other acupuncture practice books.

The book includes full discussions, templates, and checklists to quickly get you up to speed on the crucial elements involved in establishing and successfully running your acupuncture business, including:
- How to acquire, build, and set up your space, both efficiently and economically
- What you need to know about business matters in order to protect and run your business
- What you need to know before you open your doors for the first client
- The top three ways to get new clients in those doors
- The top four ways to move patients into a care plan
- The top three ways to keep patients coming back

Here you will find the proven systems that will enable you to do the work you love and, at the same time, develop a successful healing practice. You will know the freedom that comes with being your own boss--and you will be in the top 20% of graduates who stay in business and earn the six-figure salary others only dream about.
