I was extremely excited about the prospect of being able to pick the brains of someone who has not only survived but has thrived during some very tumultuous times as health care reimbursement has continued to evolve. Doug Sparks can not only deliver what you need when you need it but he tells you why his approach works, how he has fine tuned his techniques and how to make your practice stand out in the crowd. Doug continues to astound me by his responsiveness and personal attention to any and all questions and requests. The quality of Doug's work speaks for itself and the cost is miniscule - be sure you get signed up before your competition does - you won't regret it!

500+ MEMBERS CANT BE WRONG - I KNOW NOTHING, BUT WE KNOW EVERYTHING!

In 1987, and after eight years as a Wall Street entrepreneur/investment banker, I started a community-based physical therapy company geared toward adapting to managed care, took it public, sold out and started over privately with a partner. In only six years, that company grew from one to five clinics and sales went from $ZERO to almost $8 million. During my tenure, we successfully partnered physical therapists with large orthopedic groups, provided outstanding service, clinical communication and marketing to outside docs. In addition we embraced the community and strategically aligned with hospitals. Everyone WINS!! At the beginning of 2002, I sold my interest and began to focus on helping clinical professionals achieve their business goals through affordable, easy to use and understand concepts.

The unique benefit of the Internet is that I can take every tool that took me YEARS to develop and place it in a secure environment for many to use at a very low price. Because I have experienced success in our industry, and since most therapists aren't business people, my goal is to teach you how I have grown companies in the past. The result of this process is to become the "AOL*" of physical therapy consulting. Welcome to that place!!

The first thing I learned from my members was that they had been taken advantage of repeatedly by consulting companies with low introductory costs and BIG promises. What followed was hidden costs, demand for exorbitant fees, and high pressure sales tactics. These surveyed friends paid from $9,000 to $27,400 for services that they say did little for them. With APTC you gain access to all of my success secrets for as little as $300!! Please see the program details below for more extensive assistance.

MY observation was that consultants (who may or may not have EVER owned a private practice) told their generic story over and over again and each time they were paid for their "act," and then they pressured you into an expensive encore. I believe that the Internet is a PERFECT and economical way to exchange information. It allows me to tell the story ONCE, and then post the advice anonymously for you all to share. This way you will get a wide variety of knowledge for a very low monthly price - hence, the AOL* reference. If you don't see what you need and THEN wish to retain me as a consultant, I have very reasonable programs. This is my vision and greatest hope!!

Why more program choices? Outside of the outstanding value of the "Basic Annual Membership", many have requested my participation at varying levels from daily input and planning, to review of daily / weekly / monthly reports to stay on track, all the way to expansion to multiple facilities or regional / national networks. There is a plan for everyone's needs and budget. My biggest goal is that whatever program you start with that we together will graduate you to the next level of service needed because of your success.

BASIC ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP - $300

EXECUTIVE ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP - $300 PER QUARTER OR ONE PAYMENT OF $1,000

You may not find ALL of the specific information that you are looking for or you may have a project, mail campaign or a strategy you need developed for your particular situation. I'm happy to do that with you. More importantly you need systems in place to track your progress and make you accountable. Simple and inexpensive marketing and administration tools will make the difference. All personalized marketing materials are included.

Same as above but I review your tracking information daily / weekly and help you make decisions to implement strategy based on that information. All personalized marketing materials are included and I keep you accountable to the details needed to succeed. About 90% of the people who choose this are doing very well or very poor so we're either in a turnaround or expansion situation.

PARTNERS MEMBERSHIP - MONTHLY RETAINER & % OF NEW PROFIT

You have a good practice and/or you have spotted an expansion opportunity but you're not sure how to do go forward. Maybe your idea has a regional / national attraction or could be implemented repeatedly any place. My favorite is that you want to dominate your market and use every legal and ethical method available. That's the one I always picked and if you do then we should talk. I'm paid a monthly retainer and may earn varying percentages of revenue interests above your present performance rate. I will not own any part of your company; just a percentage of the improved profit. If you want to be the absolute best, this is it. You need a "partner" to set the path, keep you on it and to remain accountable. Like it or not physicians are bringing physical therapy in-house and will continue to do so. Since January of 2004 to present, I have been working constantly with attorneys and business minds to study ways to legally and ethically direct this business to existing therapy clinics. To date I have played a role in 70+ transactions around the USA that have literally saved struggling therapists from going out of business. If the physician brings therapy in-house, the entire market loses that business. If the physician contracts YOU for that business, YOUR COMPETITION loses that business. You'd better be first!! FYI-This is not a Stark issue as our legal opinions demonstrate. I have set up an informational website at www.mdptpartners.com but your secure access comes through APTC. The objective here is to pay for my time until the project(s) pay(s) me instead. Thank you! Doug
