Episode #4 - Nerys Frater: How to take a group NHS programme that you are passionate about into the online space and the mindset shifts this takes (Case Study)

Nerys has a story that every GP who wants to embark on an innovative service within their own practice, GP cluster or in a private capacity needs to hear.   In this discussion Nerys talks us through her own journey from securing some funding for a group NHS project through to running a successful online business for patients with pre diabetes and diabetes.   Nerys didn't wake up one morning wanting to be a business woman but she found a problem when trying to help her patients and was passionate enough about a solution to put the work into make something happen. That led her to growing a group programme and subsequently reaching out to me in January 2022 for support in the next stage of her growth..   Nerys's advice to someone entering this space is sound.   She suggests that all medics entering into this world need a coach and a mentor and need to invest in learning about sales and marketing and NOT more medical courses. This is where I come in. The Start Up Support Programme and The Digital Doctor Membership give you just that. Combining formal learning in recorded videos and accompanying workbook with live coaching, mentoring, hand holding and encouragement.   As a special offer in September I am offering these two programmes as a bundle to celebrate the British Society of Lifestyle Medicine conference in Newcastle. The first 20 people to sign up will also receive a free 45 minute 1:1 session with me and a guaranteed place on my online VIP Masterclass Day on Monday 30th September.   Please click on the link in the Show Notes for full details.
