310 - Why Every Chiropractor Needs an Ideal Client Profile (ICP)

You can’t serve everyone, but when you get clear on who you’re really meant to help, everything changes.

Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen lay out a step-by-step framework for defining your Ideal Client Profile (ICP) and explain why it is the key to shaping every part of your business. From the care you provide to the marketing that brings the right people through your doors, clarity in your mission, vision, and purpose influences it all. Whether you're building, scaling, or preparing for an exit, this focus will help you grow with purpose and precision.

• Understand how to shape patient experience by knowing the problems you solve best.
