Physician Entrepreneur

You’ve built a good practice.
Maybe even a great one.
You care deeply. You’ve studied hard. You deliver real results.

But your business still isn’t growing.

And here’s the hardest part to admit:

It’s not your clinical skills holding you back.
It’s not a lack of time, talent, or even strategy.
It’s that deep down, you’re ashamed to sell.


Let’s Call It What It Is:

You avoid telling people about your offers.
You whisper about your coaching, your private practice, your program.
You pray that the right patients or clients will somehow find you.
You post on social—but only when it feels safe.
You hope someone notices how good you are… and buys.

But hope is not a strategy.
And silence is not ethical when you solve real problems.


“I Don’t Want to Be That Kind of Doctor…”

You tell yourself:

But here’s the truth:

If your product or service solves a painful problem…
…then selling it is serving.

Let that sink in.


Imagine This:

A patient walks in.
They’ve stopped taking their meds because of something they read on TikTok.
They’re risking their life.
Do you sit there quietly, hoping they figure it out on their own?

Of course not.

You sell them on staying alive.
You educate. You engage. You persuade.
You walk them into transformation.

That’s what ethical selling looks like.

And your business—your other business—requires the same courage.


The 4 Beliefs Killing Your Growth

Let’s break down what’s actually getting in your way:

1. “Selling is about me.”

Wrong.
Selling is about your patient, your client, your customer.

They’re waiting for someone to help.
And that someone is you.

The moment you stop thinking “How do I sound?” and start thinking “How can I help?”—
everything shifts.

2. “Promoting myself isn’t professional.”

Not true.
There’s unprofessional selling… and there’s professional selling.

You’re a physician. You know how to listen, diagnose, and offer help with integrity.
You’re already doing it. Selling is no different.

If you only share what’s actually helpful—if you never pressure or manipulate—
you’re not a sleazy marketer.

You’re a leader.

3. “I’m not good at selling.”

Okay. So?
Nobody starts great.
You didn’t start med school already knowing how to read an MRI or handle a code.

You showed up. You practiced. You sucked a little.
Then you got great.

Selling is no different.
The fastest path to confidence is reps.

Make the call. Post the offer. Send the email.
Do it again. Evaluate. Refine. Repeat.

That’s how pros are made.

4. “If my offer is good, it should sell itself.”

It won’t.

In rooms with founders who run $500M businesses, no one says,
“Our offer is so good we don’t sell.”

They say,
“We’re committed. We do what it takes. We market. We sell. We grow.”

Champions don’t wait to be discovered.
They train. They sell. They repeat.

That’s what separates businesses that thrive from those that close.


So What Do You Do Now?

Start here:

And most of all—
Stop waiting for someone to hand you the permission slip.

You already have everything you need to grow.
You just have to decide it’s worth it.


You don’t have to choose between impact and income.
You just have to stop being silent about the solution you offer.

Physician business growth doesn’t come from hiding.

It comes from showing up, telling the truth, and inviting people to work with you.

Every day you wait is a day someone stays stuck.

Don’t let that be the story.
