In this episode, we talk with Dr. Peter Camiolo, co-founder and CEO, and Dr. David Touhill, VP of Marketing and Technology for ChiroCEO, a firm dedicated to helping chiropractors get out of the "slavery" of their current practice and take over as CEO of their own businesses.
Drs. Camiolo and Touhill have plenty to share on how their own vision came to life, and share valuable advice on transitioning to a membership-based model, seeing your business as a franchise, and the transformative growth of telling customers' stories.

I came to this place where I realized I was a slave in my own practice. I was the highest paid employee, but I was also carrying the greatest level of responsibility and also I realized if I was to leave the business, the business would absolutely fall apart, but if my team members left, nothing would change.

I'm gonna speak to anybody who's listening now and see that if you're in a painful situation and something is not right, it may be the exact thing that you need to get you to the place you need to go. There's a good chance that it is.

I've seen such huge return in people just being able to share their story.

We want to see real people make real change. We want to solve a problem. Most practitioners are problem solvers. So if we say we're in this to solve problems and help people, then we have to start having the conversations, like are you actually helping people? How do you now if you're helping people? How are you defining that?
