Lead with Patient Growth, anchor at $4,000/mo, and open on patients come once and never return.
⚠️ Demo brief. Written by the offline fallback, not the model. Set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY for the real thing.▸ RECOMMENDED CLOSE
- Offer: Patient Growth — Core
- Anchor: $4,000/mo
- Next step: Book a second call
- Confidence: Low — The anchor rests on assumptions we made, not their numbers: Capped at 30% of their stated revenue — the raw figure came out at 338,520, which is not a number you can say out loud. Confirm it on the call before leaning on it.
Say it like this: "Based on what you have told me, the next step is a proposal covering Patient Growth. Can I send that across by Thursday and walk you through it Friday?"

evidence: They named it on the form. Nothing in the public data confirms or contradicts it — ask for the number on the call.[form] - Only 16 Google reviews
evidence: Found in public data. They did not raise this, which usually means nobody has told them.[gbp] - Not running Meta ads at all

▸ COST OF THE PROBLEM
$75,000 / year
About $75,000 a year on the table. Lifetime value lost to patients who never rebook.
Working: 3,500/mo ÷ 42 per lead × 0.31 booking rate = new patients a month. Each returns 1.6 times instead of 4.2, at 420 a visit. — reduced to a defensible ceiling
Assumes: Capped at 30% of their stated revenue — the raw figure came out at 338,520, which is not a number you can say out loud
👉 This is the anchor. Say the number out loud on the call.

Thin history. Treat this as a first real conversation.
▸ FIVE QUESTIONS FOR THIS PERSON
- You said you tried i ran Groupon for a year — what specifically went wrong, and whose call was it to stop?
- When you say "patients come once and never return", what does that cost you in a month?
- I noticed only 16 Google reviews — is that deliberate, or has nobody had time to look at it?
- If this works exactly as you want, what is different in ninety days?
- Who else has to say yes, and what will they want to see?
▸ LIKELY OBJECTIONS
- "That is more than I wanted to spend."
→ Go back to their own number before defending yours. "You told me you are losing about X a year to this. The question is not whether Y is a lot of money — it is whether Y buys back X. If it does not, we should not do this." Then ask what number would make it obviously worth doing.
why: From the library. Not yet seen on a recorded call, so treat it as a standing bet rather than a prediction. - "I need to think about it."
→ Never accept this as an answer, and never push against it either. "Of course. What specifically do you want to think through — the money, the timing, or whether it will actually work?" Whichever they name is the real objection, and now you can handle it. Put a date on the follow-up before the call ends.
why: From the library. Not yet seen on a recorded call, so treat it as a standing bet rather than a prediction. - "I need to talk to my business partner first."
→ Do not fight it, get into the room. "Makes sense. What is the part they will be most sceptical about?" Answer that objection now, then offer to join the conversation: "Would it be easier if I spent fifteen minutes with both of you rather than you having to sell my thing for me?"
