I want to talk about Mindset in a Crisis. We’ve got the Covid-19 going on right now at the time of this video, but if you’re watching this video in a couple years and corona is long gone, this is applicable to any type of crisis – recession, housing crash, something with insurance companies. There's a few things you have to do that will effect your mindset.

Hi Rhinos, Dr. FJ Schofield bringing you your next episode of Rhino University.

We got a lot of craziness going on right now so I want to talk about Freeing up Cash in a Crisis.

Right now it's the Corona Virus, but this is applicable to any kind of adversity you face, like a recession, housing marketing crisis, or if Insurance Comp stops payment. This is applicable for many years to come.

The number one priority is to keep your business going, to turn a profit so you can take care of your family and your team.

Really consider these steps 3 steps.

We want you to thrive.

We need more successful chiropractors, and together we can change this profession for the better and forever but we need to have a lot of super successful chiropractors to do that.

The most dangerous thing you can do right now in this crisis is be overly optimistic and assume it’s going to be done in a couple weeks. You have to plan as if this is going to go on for months and months and months. Plan for that, and if it doesn’t, GREAT, if it does, you’re ready for it.

So you need to Profit Forecast – Where are you going to be, if you continue to run like you’re running, where are you going to be in 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 5 months…

So you need to know your numbers. We have a 6 week average excel sheet we send to our Rhinos for them to plug their numbers in. If this is your first time figuring your 6 week averages out, start with the 6 weeks just prior to this crisis starting. Compare your “normal running” 6 week average with your last few weeks in this crisis. You’ll then know, “okay, I’m operating at 50%”. Okay now let’s forecast that out in 5, 6 , 7, 8 weeks operating at 50 % (or whatever that looks like for you) and see what that looks like. Okay, now these are our costs, this is where we’re operating, are we profiting? So you got to know your numbers and you have to forecast out. Don’t be overly optimistic!

Then you want to look at your missed

Water is essential for life, but we typically take it for granted because it is plentiful.

However, we can't survive very long without it.

Collections are your office's water supply.

Assuming everything is going to get back to normal quickly is a huge mistake and a recipe for disaster.

Please don't do this.

You have to be prepared for this to continue for months.

And if it continues to still run at a profit if it does.

In this situation, you have to look at the worst-case scenario and figure out how to navigate it.

Your job as a leader is to make tough choices and have honest and real conversations.

The first place to look is
