“Years ago, for many Americans, coffee was considered to be a simple delivery instrument for caffeine. That idea was inexorably altered with the explosive growth of Starbucks. This Seattle-based company took a common drink and built an entire culture of experience around it. Clients do not simply purchase coffee from Starbucks; they buy into the distinctive look of the surroundings, the cheeriness of the barista behind the counter, and the variety of the menu…in essence, the experience.
In much the same way, successful medical practices are quickly realizing that they have a lot to learn from the Starbucks experience.
If you think that aesthetic clients are looking only for the best results, you are sadly mistaken. While clients seek certain outcomes, they are also seeking an experience. Clients know coming into your practice means they are going to spend a significant amount of money but they are willing to do so for the positive changes you will help them achieve as well as the environment they will find within your office. It is different than going to a traditional medical office setting to be treated for an upper respiratory infection because in our case the client is paying the entire bill with no assistance from insurance […] Rewarding them with a sterile medical experience will certainly not win you the business you seek.”
