Episode notes
Gross Revenue Is Not Owner Income
- Top-line revenue is not the same as profit in a cash-based PT clinic.
- Danny Matta compares $1M clinics with 10% pass-through versus 30–40% owner's discretionary income to show radically different owner outcomes.
Staffing Targets To Hit Seven Figures
- Staff efficiency matters: aim for three staff clinicians averaging 120 visits per month and an owner seeing a half schedule (about 15 sessions/week).
- This staffing mix yields ~420 monthly sessions, which at $200/visit reaches seven-figure revenue without overstaffing.
Price Visits Around Two Hundred Dollars
- Target an average visit rate of about $200 per visit to reach $1M with ~420 monthly sessions.
- Danny uses the $200/visit × 420 sessions = ~$84,000/month example to illustrate the math.
