How to fill those hard-to-fill spots in your caseload
I’ve talked to multiple therapists recently who struggle to fill certain spots in their caseload.
Thursdays at 10 AM is one that comes up a lot, which is funny because that’s when I see my therapist and I didn’t know it was a thing.
How do you fill those hard-to-fill spots? You have a few options.
You could leave that spot open in your schedule and use it for something else. This may not be an option if you operate a group practice and need to fill that time slot for one of your clinicians.
You could ask existing clients if they would be interested in switching to a different day and time.
If no one wants to switch, then I recommend getting specific about your ideal client for that particular spot. For example, someone who can meet on Thursday morning may be a different type of person than someone who can meet on Monday evening.
Depending on your niche, if you need to fill Thursdays at 10 AM, then you could consider marketing to stay-at-home moms by dropping off flyers at local yoga studios.
