I reached out to Dr. Ryan DeBell DC, of The Movement Fix, to help
young clinicians, trainers and students develop businesses similar
to his… if they desired. Dr. DeBell started a solo practice on his
own. During his first few months of practice, he was able to
successfully make $4000 in one day teaching at a seminar.
Wow!
This popularity lead to speaking engagements, workshops, podcasts, videos, and online content creation. Sky’s the limit.
During our conversation, he mentioned he has been able to grow his online business so much that he had to choose if he wanted to practice full-time or spend more time online.
He picked online… why? Because he would rather help more people with understand the basics of having a health life.
If you’re a young doc who posts half-heartedly on instagram or facebook, you need to listen to this podcast. Enjoy.
Quotes:
“I learned to draw to improve my creativity”
“A lot of times when we are talking to patients, we talk to them like they’re Picasso.”
“When other people make content I think, I’m glad these people are putting themselves out there.”
“The people who are going to criticise you are the ones who are afraid to do it themselves.”
Ryan DeBell’s Bio:
“I was born a skeptic and a cynic. I question everything and challenge the status quo.
I have a passion for helping people become strong, pain free, and take ownership of their bodies.
I believe being pain free and moving well is a fundamental human right. Information shouldn't be kept a secret when it can benefit so many people in such a large way.
I graduated from the University of Washington's Foster School of Business. After realizing I didn't enjoy the work I was doing (and sitting there writing excel macros thinking about how much more I would enjoy teaching people how to become strong, pain free, and move their body) I decided to make a change.
The switch lead me to the University of Western States where I earned two degrees: A master's degree in exercise and sport science and a doctorate in chiropractic.
I actually have an identity crisis at times. I don't identify well with one particular group of people based on how I was trained.
My job is to help people become strong, get pain free, and move their bodies well. However I achieve that is not important (through hands on therapy, exercise instruction, a video on the internet, an e-book, a podcast, etc.).
I care about helping as many people as I can in whatever way possible.”
