Client Retention Numbers

With the right kind of software your therapists should be recording the number of sessions they provide to each client, and how many of those sessions the clients actually attend.

This figure, when calculated properly, can give the business owner an average figure which can be used to determine the success of the practice.

Depending upon how you track your data, you should always be able to calculate average sessions, and projected income.

This will help you determine when to offer discounting services, and by how much.
