The Business of Injecting (Chapter 1): An introduction

With hosts Dr Jake Sloane and David Segal

About this episode

Dr Jake and David introduce a new series, The Business of Injecting. We step away from the nitty gritty of injecting technique to focus on the business side of things.

In future episodes we'll host injectors to discuss their business models: their struggles and challenges, difficult decisions, unsolved friction points, financial concerns, staffing, hiring, firing and everything else that crops up when working in or owning an injectables clinic. We'll also celebrate success stories and share learning points other injectors can put into action.

In this first chapter we discuss Dr Jake's path from surgery to injecting, first courses and early mistakes, where to start your career, chain clinics versus independent practice, mentorship, planning an exit strategy early, income and risk, working in teams, managing difficult employees, budgeting and pricing, patient experience and finding your ideal patient.
