Hypnotherapist networking seat

How hypnotherapists win clients through referrals

Most people who book a hypnotherapist have thought about it for a while first. They might want to stop smoking, sleep better or get on top of a fear of flying, and they usually go to someone a friend, colleague or another professional has recommended. A hypnotherapy practice grows best through people who know the practitioner and can vouch for them.

FindaBiz Lutterworth already has a hypnotherapist in its seat, and you can see the hypnotherapist members in the network below. The seat is open in FindaBiz Coventry, Hinckley, Kirby Muxloe, Lichfield, Nuneaton, Southam and Leamington Spa, and Sutton Coldfield, and those groups are listed further down.

Holding the only hypnotherapist seat in a group

Each FindaBiz group keeps one seat per trade. Once a hypnotherapist takes the seat in FindaBiz Nuneaton, for example, no other hypnotherapist can join that group. So when a member there hears someone mention a fear or habit they’d like help with, the referral goes to the seat holder.

For hypnotherapy this probably matters more than for most trades. The client may be anxious, or a little embarrassed about the problem, and a member will only pass them on to someone they have met, listened to and trust. With one hypnotherapist in the room, the group gets to know that person’s approach properly.

Trades that pass clients to a hypnotherapist

Quite a few trades in FindaBiz groups hear about the problems people use hypnotherapy for. Therapists and counsellors sometimes meet clients who want to try something alongside talking therapy, and a physiotherapist may treat people whose pain or tension is bound up with stress. A driving instructor sees test nerves every week. A travel agent or travel consultant will talk to customers who dread flying.

Workplace trades refer too. Human resources advisers, business coaches and first aid and mental health trainers deal with staff stress, presentation nerves and low confidence, and clients sometimes ask a health insurance adviser what support they can get. Family law solicitors work with people under a lot of strain. If you explain clearly what your sessions involve, all of these members have something simple to pass on.

If you are looking for a hypnotherapist you can trust, the members shown on this page are known to the other businesses in their group, who have met them at meetings and one to ones.

Visiting a FindaBiz group with an open seat

You come to your first meeting as a guest, and that visit is free. Pick the open seat nearest your practice from the list further down. Between meetings, members meet one to one to learn about each other’s businesses, and that is where a physiotherapist or HR adviser finds out exactly which clients to send your way.

If you would like a feel for FindaBiz before visiting, there is free online networking every Friday, open to anyone with a free account.
