Q01

“How do I describe what I do without sounding like every other doctor?”

One sentence. Four slots. A specific patient, a specific change, a specific alternative. The patient sentence template the whole guide rests on.

Page 06
Q05

“Why isn’t anyone calling me?”

It feels personal. It is almost never personal. Three usual reasons inbound dies for a new practice, and the order you fix them.

Q11

“How do I know if any of this is working?”

Five numbers. One dashboard. First Monday of every month. The minimum measurement a new practice needs to stop cutting blind.

Start with the
About-page exercise

Question 08 of the guide. Three sentences that replace the CV-style About page most physician practices launch with. Before you write them, run the diagnostic on what you have now. The gap between operator language and brochure language is what the entire guide is for.

01 Open your About page.
02 Count the sentences that describe what you actually do
at an operational level.
03 Look for a named patient category, a named outcome,
a payment model, a regulatory cycle, a clinical edge.
04 Most physician About pages do not contain a single one.
That gap is the exercise.

Six minutes.
Three sections.

The Brave New Business Journal lands every Tuesday morning.
One operator story, one trade-press read, one decision you can take that week.

Built by people who work inside your category

Anne built Brave New on industrial, capital, and healthcare accounts. The healthcare track runs as its own practice with its own reading list, audit format, and physician-only cadence.

International work in the EU and UAE means cross-border procurement, regulator-cycle awareness, and the operator-side conversation that hospital affiliation directors and insurance panel committees walk into.

  • Two hundred likes. Now what?

The guide responds to every one of them. In order. By name. With page references.

Know one physician who has been told marketing does not work in medicine?

Forward the guide to the founder, the partner, or the new attending in your network who has been talking themselves out of opening their own practice. That is how the Journal grows. Inside one physician network at a time.
