  • PCC Tools to Convert More Consults — with Catherine Maley, MBA (Ep. 325)
    Sep 2 2025
    📅 Schedule Your Practice Growth Strategy Review ⚙️ Restart your practice in 7 days ⬇️⬇️⬇️ PCC Tools to Convert More Consults with training, CRM, and incentives that help coordinators boost bookings, surgeries, and revenue growth. Indeed, welcome to "Beauty and the Biz," where we'll discuss the business and marketing side of plastic surgery. As always, I'm your host, Catherine Maley, author of "Your Aesthetic Practice – What Your Patients Are Saying." and consultant to plastic surgeons, helping them get more patients and more profits. PCC Tools to Convert More Consults into Surgeries Firstly, cosmetic patients today are sophisticated and skeptical. Additionally, they have endless information at their fingertips. Consequently, they shop around, compare surgeons, check reviews, scroll through before-and-after photos, and scrutinize your online presence before ever visiting your office. Therefore, your Patient Care Coordinator (PCC) is no longer just a “nice-to-have” role. Instead, it is a critical business driver. In fact, think of this role as your practice’s chief revenue officer. Moreover, a skilled PCC connects with prospective patients. Furthermore, they build trust, answer tough questions, and guide hesitant consumers from curiosity to commitment. For example, if the average surgical case is worth $10,000, closing just five additional surgeries per month adds $50,000. Consequently, this translates to $600,000 annually. Also, this does not include repeat treatments, referrals, or lifetime value from patients who return for additional procedures. However, marketing dollars are wasted if consultations don’t convert. In other words, spending $20,000 per month on ads and SEO is ineffective if your coordinator cannot build rapport, articulate your value, or confidently close. Therefore, the smartest practices invest heavily in their PCC. Specifically, they equip them with the right tools, training, and incentives to succeed.
