OVERVIEW:
Marketing is not different from Sales, but a subset of it.
Jason A. Duprat, MBA, CRNA, Healthcare Practitioner, and Host of
the Healthcare Boss
Academy podcast, sits down with Daniel Bai, CEO of
CloseForChiro LLC, author, speaker, and thought leader on Sales and
Marketing. In this episode, Daniel unravels the common mistakes and
misconceptions that people do/have about “Sales,” “Marketing,” and
“Rapport-Building.” We’ll also hear Daniel’s hot take on what
Marketing is and isn’t about.
3 KEY POINTS:
- Look at Marketing from a Sales perspective.
- Don't measure Vanity metrics.
- Shut up about yourself and ask questions about them.
EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:
- A year into his practice, he came close to quitting because of
the amount of rejection he experienced.
- He had what we would call nowadays a sales problem, "I did not
know how to present what I do in an effective, efficient way that's
consumable to the clueless member of the public across from
me."
- Daniel believes Marketing was a term we gave Sales because
Sales is too “uncomfortable.”
- Marketing is a subset of Sales. We pay money to market and
advertise ourselves because we want a return on it.
- When you do Marketing from a Sales perspective, you become very
specific and problem-oriented. It positions you as a solution to
that particular problem.
- The only people interested in impressions and vanity metrics
are the people who make money on those platforms.
- Early on, Daniel learned the concept of STFU – Stop talking
about yourself and ask specific questions in a curious and
intriguing way where you're actually trying to get down to the
bottom of the problem.
- Rapport is not "Please like me?" nor "How can I get this person
to think I'm awesome?"
- Ask open-ended questions that allow the other person to express
who they are and say what they want to say.
- Take notes from your conversations with clients. Bring those
topics back up at the next meeting for them to feel remembered and
cared about.
- Nobody closes at 100%. You have to accept that not everyone is
going to say yes. If they say no, you may not agree with their
decision, but you have to respect it.
- “This is not the end all be all. You do not live or die by the
answers people give you.” – If you approach it like this, there's
no pressure to have people say yes.
- Based on Alex Hormozi's "The Million Dollar Offer," Daniel
mentions, "The offer is more accepted if the lead, client, or
patient is more tenderized to the fact that you are indeed the
solution to that particular problem."
- CloseForChiro is a business consulting company specifically for
Chiropractors, taking good sales training diversified through all
different industries and adapting it for the modern Chiropractor in
a correct, ethical, streamlined, and efficient way.

"Customers have one very selfish need, want, and desire, and
that is 'I have a problem, and I've got to know, in the shortest
amount of time, is this person a solution to my problem?'" – Daniel
Bai
"Marketing is a subset of Sales. It's not its own entity. It's
the beginning phases of the sales cycle, and if you look at
marketing from a Sales perspective, it changes what your Marketing
does." – Daniel Bai
