My friends advised me if running my own business. They have their own business.
My goal is that I will have my own business where I will provide musical psychotherapy (Cognitive-Behavioral Music Therapy) for people with mental illness primarily as well as belonging to a company where I will provide sensorymotor,cognitive, and social skills for people with dementia and Alzheimer's disease.
My friend D, engineer
- To connect people resulting in word of mouth (WOM) so that my business will expand. This would be led by my daily efforts to provide high quality services.
- To make my own official website that should be simply. Only one page is fine with pictures and video. Simply is the best.
- To make the leaflet that introduce your business using a lot of pictures. However, the concept is simply.
- To focus on your core expertize. Avoid showing many your titles and different skills that you can. Try to make your customers remind that you are _____ immediately. So you are a Cognitive-Behavioral Music Therapist.
My friend J, a Muscle Active Therapist
- To create my several own programs with price. They should be distinct and clear.
- To price a bit expensive, not cheap. Customers will be serious by paying for my program if it is expensive.
- To write down stories with regard to your programs which contain specific problems and resolves. Figure out each solution in detail.
My friend Y, a owner of design office for engineering - To focus your target to specific population, even necessary to determine the age. Otherwise, you waste time.
- To be anyway patient with occuring problems in running.
My friend S, pharmacy owner
- To advertise yourself, make you name via website. Patients tend to follow the doctor, not the hospital. If I am trustworthy in CBM therapy, people who need to help would come to my place where is even not located in an inconvenient place.
I am surprised that there are a variety of opinions depending on the person. How important people's advice is! I am proud of my friends who gave me such useful and meaningful suggestions above.
