TTE 100: How My Mother-in-Law & Her Business Partner Built a Group Practice with 17 Therapists, 2 Addiction Specialists, 7 Support Staff & 3 Offices
About 25 years ago, my mother-in-law, Cindy Falor, knocked on the door of the therapist in her future building and said, “I’m either going to move in next door to you and be your competition, or we are going to join forces.”
Today, Cindy and her business partner Tony Fiser, are the owners of Breakthroughs, a group practice with 3 offices, 17 therapists, 2 addiction specialists, and 7 support staff. This is their Therapist Experience of growing Breakthroughs into the immensely successful group practice it is today.
Best Quote from the Interview
“I’m either going to move in next door to you and be your competition, or we are going to join forces.”
Best Marketing Tip
- Both Cindy and Tony networked with psychiatrists and doctors in the Jacksonville area while working standard jobs. This networking allowed them to hit the ground running when opening their practice as they already had relationships with a variety of referral sources.
