In this solo video, Kelly Alhooie advises physical therapists and other health providers on scaling their practice through online retreats and virtual services. She explains how hosting a 2‑ or 3‑day retreat at $1,000 per ticket can generate $10,000 in two days, a far more efficient revenue model than traditional $200 hourly visits that require 48‑hour weeks of patient care. Kelly highlights the freedom of virtual work—being able to operate from anywhere, avoid being confined to a treatment room, and even work while on vacation. She stresses that success online demands digital‑marketing skills; providers either need to learn marketing themselves or invest in paid ads on platforms like Google and Facebook. Finally, she invites viewers to DM her @pelvibiz for personalized help.

Another thing I like to do for online is do retreats. Do retreats. So create your community online, but then bring them into an in-person event that— or like, you know, a 3-day or 2-day thing that people want to connect. This is where the trends are going. They want to connect. They want to feel connected with other like-minded people. And if you can provide that community and you charge like $1,000 per ticket, think about the difference. If you charge $1,000 per ticket and you get 10 people in your retreat in 2 days, guys, that's $10K in 2 days. Conversely, if you charge, uh, $200 a visit, you know how many clients you're gonna have to see? You're probably gonna have to see like You're probably gonna— if I— again, I'm not doing math in my head, but you're probably gonna see 12 clients a week. 12 times 4 is what? 12 times 4, you're gonna see probably over 50 hours of patient care. Again, I can't do math, so if you're doing math in your head and I can't do it, great. Um, 12 times— what did I say? 200 times— yeah, wow, I did really good math. That's That's amazing. So yeah, 12 clients a week. Okay, that's 12 times 4 is what? 12 times 4, that's 48 hours of patient care. Or you can do 16 hours. Which one would you prefer, 16 hours or 48 hours? You see how retreats can get you there faster to what you want? So I think again, we have to think about the stuff um, differently. Uh, the benefit to virtual is your location freedom. You do not have to be somewhere, you know, at a certain state, and you can just go wherever. Um, and you're not stuck in a treatment room. I would say that's number 2. You're not stuck in a treatment room. You can be wherever. You can get the beach, you can be at a table, wherever you want. Um, and you can help people. You can be on vacation and you pause your vacation to just like take a call and then get off and then go somewhere. So that's the benefit, I think, of virtual, and you can still make money. So, um, but the thing about it is you have to be a digital marketer, period. And I think most providers do not want to step into that role, or scared to step into that role because it's so uncomfortable, because they didn't go to school for that. They went to school to help people. And I believe that's why some of them struggle to build online, because they're basically starting from ground zero, and other people have gotten like degrees in marketing. Um, and so yeah, or you pay— you pay Google and Facebook, right? And you will pay a big penny to them. Um, if you're like, look, I'm just not willing to go and DM people, well then you got to pay, and that's the other way to build this. So hopefully that helps, guys, give you some insight online and how to do that. If you have questions, please please DM me @pelvibiz, P-E-L-V-I-B-I-Z, @pelvibiz. Say, hey Kelly, I need some help. It is me in my DMs, by the way. Um, so would love to talk then. See you guys soon. Bye-bye.
