Physiotherapy clinics · Customer retention
The pain goes at session three and the shoulder is nowhere near ready.
Retention in a physiotherapy clinic is almost entirely one problem: the patient who feels better and stops halfway. The course was advised for a reason and the clinic loses both the outcome and the fee. GullySales builds the expectation, the booking and the return visit that keep a course finished.
A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.
What customer retention means
Customer retention is keeping an existing customer buying again rather than losing them to a competitor after the first purchase, usually cheaper than winning a new customer. GullySales sets a routine of check-ins and renewal reminders aimed at customers before they show signs of leaving.

Sales and marketing for physiotherapy clinics, the overview.
For physiotherapy clinics
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Relief arrives long before recovery, and that is when people leave”
A frozen shoulder stops hurting well before the range of movement is back. If nobody explained that at session one, the patient reads the relief as a finish. Set the expectation on the first day and session three stops being an exit.
“Book the course, not the next appointment”
A patient who leaves with six dated slots in their phone turns up for them. A patient who leaves with we will see you next week decides again every week, and eventually decides no.
“A back that went once will go again”
Chronic and recurring conditions are the return business in this trade. A check-in at the point in the year the patient last flared up brings them in before the next spasm, rather than after they have found somebody closer to their new office.
What we do
What we deliver for physiotherapy clinics.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A first-session explanation of what the course will feel like
A short written note the therapist gives at session one covering when the pain typically eases and why the sessions continue past that point.
Result: The patient stops treating relief as a signal to leave.
The full advised course booked at the first visit
Every session scheduled and confirmed at the start, with the slots in the patient's hand rather than agreed week by week.
Result: Attendance stops depending on a decision taken every seven days.
A mid-course check on who has fallen behind
A weekly look at patients whose attendance has dropped behind the advised course, so the desk contacts them before the gap widens.
Result: A patient is reached at one missed session rather than at four.
A return contact for recurring conditions
A check-in for chronic back, neck and knee patients set against their own history, asking how the condition has been rather than offering a package.
Result: The patient comes back to you rather than searching again.
Continuity on home-visit and elderly care
The same therapist held against a home-visit patient where possible, with the family contact kept informed of the schedule.
Result: The family keeps the clinic instead of moving to an app.
A view on whether discounting sessions is worth it
An honest look at package pricing against completion rates, including a note on why session discounts and incentives need care in a clinical setting.
Result: You keep patients through scheduling rather than by cutting the fee.
How the result is measured
- Retention rate
- Repeat purchase rate
- Customers won back
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
- You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
- You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.
How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Each step has a point in time and something you receive.
01 · Day 1
Free audit call
90 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.
02 · After the call
Written, scored report
Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come with it, in writing.
03 · Before work starts
Baseline recorded
Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later month has an honest comparison.
04 · Month 1
The first fix goes live
Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.
05 · As agreed
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.
06 · At the end of the term
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

Why us
Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.
Marketing and sales, as one job
Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.
The person on the first call does the work
No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.
A baseline before anything starts
Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.
The fee in writing, split three ways
Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.
No guarantees we cannot keep
The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
