Becoming the Disc Injury Expert In Your Community

Dr. Kevin Christie explains how chiropractors can position themselves as the go-to disc injury expert in their community using an “audience builder” framework. He outlines an XY-axis positioning concept (expert vs. non-expert; generalist vs. specific) and emphasizes that clinical skill is essential but visibility and perception in the community determine whether patients see you as an expert.

 

Dr. Christie recommends defining ideal patient psychographics before demographics, then selecting target groups prone to disc injuries and identifying offline and online congregation points to reach them. He also applies Donald Miller’s StoryBrand messaging model to disc-injured golfers, clarifying external, internal, and philosophical conflicts to craft compelling content and outreach.

 

Dr. Christie stresses that strong marketing must be matched by strong outcomes.
