Dr TJ Ahn is a first-generation Korean who immigrated to
America alone when he was only 19 without any connections or
ability to speak English. He called Tennessee
home initially where he studied Computer Science and Business,
before eventually moving to Chicago to study podiatry, which is
where he still lives and practices podiatry.
In addition to running his podiatry business, he is using his
experience and business knowledge to help other colleagues build
their dream private practices at TJ Ahn

"When you wake up tomorrow are you going to

version? You decide."

Podiatry Business Coaching &
Mentoring
If you want to own and operate a Thriving Podiatry
Business, there are four vital pieces to the business
puzzle.
- Marketing - You need a well thought out
marketing strategy, not just more tactics.
- Systems - You need systems that will
support your marketing strategy and your team.
- Team - You need to develop a team culture
that makes your work-life balance easier, not harder.
- Diary - Your diary needs to be structured
in a way that maximises patient numbers and increases daily
profits.
You have two choices: There's
the slow approach, where you learn by trial and error and do
everything yourself, or you can fast-track your education and
business success with one-on-one business coaching and mentoring,
or group coaching.
If you want to know more, please email me
at tf@tysonfranklin.com, and we can set up
a Zoom Call and have a quick chat to see if I can be of
assistance.
