I am so blessed to have a successful healing practice and I truly love what I do and working with my clients. But I find it a bit humorous when other practitioners reach out to me and ask me “what is your trick in getting clients?” “Where do you advertise?”

 

I have been giving this some serious thought for lately as more practitioners have reached out via my website to ask this question. Why do I have an abundance of clients and others are struggling? I am no more gifted than these other practitioners so what is the reason for my success for I do not “advertise” my business.  My clients come to me per word of mouth, someone has always referred them to me.

 

So, what is my “secret” or “trick?” The only thing I can come up with is that I am authentic.  I am authentic to myself, my beliefs, and my practices. There are no gimmicks or surprises, what you see is what you get.  I have integrity and build a trust relationship with all my clients.  I am reliable, I rarely cancel appointments or classes/workshops even if just one person signed up for a class, I will hold it, for the one person is just as important to me as ten. I am committed to my business and my clients; I do not overload them with services or try to sell other services to them. I have found my strengths and I am consistent. I do not charge them if I, the practitioner goes over their appointment time. If you scheduled an hour, but we go over that hour I only charge them the hour. I hold every client with regard. I do not judge their journey, story, or beliefs and lastly my reputation. Because of all the above my reputation is a positive one, I get back to people if they call me or message me or e-mail me. I treat everyone who walks through my door with respect, and I deliver what I say I will deliver.

 

I do not have a gimmick or secret. I treat everyone as my equal because no one is above anyone else, we are all equals doing our best to navigate our life’s journey. I asked a client what is it that keeps them coming and their answer brought tears to my eyes (literally). They said, “you are the most genuine person I have ever met and even with my past all I have ever felt from you since walking in your door is love and acceptance.” That meant the world to me.

When I first opened my healing practice the number one priority for me was that people felt safe regardless of race, sexual orientation, or beliefs. I want my studio space and me as a healer to be a haven for people.  I place where they can be free of the masks we sometimes put on, free to see their authenticity and discover how amazing they truly are.

 

So, I guess if I have a “trick” this would be it, that and that I truly believe in the work I do! It is with sincere gratitude that I want to thank all my clients and their belief in me and what I offer them. This has been an amazing journey and I look forward to continuing it with you all.

 

Namaste!
