Ups and Downs

Today, I started out the day making phone calls to chiropractor offices in the area.  I get really discouraged when I do that.  However, I found out quite a bit.  I discovered that most offices already have electronic health records or are not planning on changing.  Actually, I think that the national average is about 50%, so I still have a good chance of selling one.

After my discouraging phone calls, I took the dog on a mile long walk.  I did some running and tried to keep my breathing under control.  I don't know why, but it seems like I'm not making progress towards increasing my control pause or whatever.  I can only run about 25 steps without taking a breath.  Optimal health for the steps exercise is 80 or 100.  I'm so far from that, but I'll keep trying.  The other thing that I did today to work on my health was Pilates From the Inside Out.  Yep!  I found my favorite Pilates instructor on television and did a workout with her! 

Networking really is the way to grow my business.  I'm working on networking.  I had my assistant send out an update today.  I got two responses!  I'm so excited about that.  I also had two people from my networking group email me and tell me that they would introduce me to a chiropractor.  That's so much better than making cold calls.  I feel relieved when my networking people touch base with me.

The webinar was a down for me today.  Only one person signed up and they didn't attend.  I stopped it short.  I may try the webinar thing one or two more times, but it is not turning out to be effective right now.
