Blog Series - How to create a hypnotherapy business
This is the first blog in a series that’s aimed at helping you turn your enthusiasm for hypnotherapy into a successful and thriving business. You have probably become a hypnotherapist because you’ve experienced the transformative power of hypnotherapy yourself, and now want other people to benefit too.
Empathy and a strong desire to help others are great assets for a hypnotherapist, but you will need additional skills and knowledge if you want to turn it into a business that works. In the coming weeks, I will be sharing the key skills, knowledge, and techniques that have worked for me in creating a successful, profitable and resilient hypnotherapy business. The series will cover everything you need to know, in the order you need to know it. By following my advice, you can create a successful hypnotherapy business for yourself.
Blog 1 will look at identifying and building a detailed picture of your prospective customers to help you estimate the size and depth of your market.
