Welcome to High Income Low Stress
I provide simple to use, low-cost, practical help for therapy businesses, so that you can have a simple, low stress, high-income business, and you can concentrate on what you love to do - looking after your clients.
Why do I do this? I'm fed up with seeing good people with kind, giving hearts, struggling to make a living out of caring for people and being forced out of business or becoming hard and cynical.
I'm on a mission to help build a different kind of business model - one where providing a good service and making the world a better place is rewarded properly.
I want to give out as much information as I can to help you. Sign up for the free newsletter and I'll be sending out hints and tips and useful stuff I've discovered that you can use.
Have you ever struggled to understand all the different aspects of running a business? Are you thinking of setting up in practice but don't know where to start? Perhaps you have been in practice for a while and found that it is not providing what you need to support your lifestyle? You are very good at what you do, and you care, so why are you not getting what you deserve?
My chiropractic training was excellent in training me to be a chiropractor,but taught me next to nothing about running a small business! I spent years in practice making lots of expensive mistakes, not generating enough income, and nearly going broke in the process. I read many business books, went on expensive courses and ploughed hours a day into learning more about business, when I would rather have spent that time with my clients and family.
After years of study I realised that all the gurus were making it all harder than it should be. Most courses and books are aimed at small businesses who want to grow into big businesses. Small businesses are generally defined as two hundred and fifty thousand to one million turnover with ten to one hundred staff. What if you are a micro business, maybe just you and a receptionist, turnover less than one hundred thousand and you want to stay small? There was no help out there at all. High Income Low Stress was designed to provide the help you need.
In the past, business coaches and business courses were aimed at small to medium businesses. As a micro-business you can't afford to pay consultancy fees, or have specialist staff. You can not afford to pay someone else to see clients while you work forty hours a week being a manager. Nor do you want to!

Price Check: Ever wonder if you're getting the best deal? There are quite a few apps that promise to scan barcodes and compare prices, but this one is by far the easiest I've used. You can scan a barcode, take a photo, or even just say a product's name, and Price Check will find matches at Amazon.com and any of its hundreds of partners. If the app turns up a better price, just click to buy and save.
Key Ring: Store loyalty cards often mean serious savings, especially at grocers and drugstores. But the resulting bulge in my wallet from all that plastic means I increasingly turn down offers for new ones, leaving money on the table. Enter Key Ring. It scans and stores all your loyalty cards so they're always just a tap away.
Amazon Deals: For the uninitiated, Amazon (
Grocery iQ: Every once in a while, I try to clip coupons to save a little cash, but inevitably, I never have them with me when I need them. Grocery iQ has the solution: Add coupons directly to your grocery store savings card! That way, they're applied instantly at checkout. The app does some other cool things, too: You can scan items as you run out of them to add them to a shopping list; organize your list by store and aisle; and print additional coupons directly from your phone. The selection of stores participating in the savings card portion is somewhat limited (developers promise they're adding more all the time), but if yours is included, this app is a must.
Groupon: Until recently, I didn't quite get the immense popularity of Groupon. You had to keep track of which deals you'd bought and remember to use them before they expired. That's easier said than done for this busy mom of two. But thanks to the genius combination of Groupon's instant deals with its mobile app, I'm now a Groupon groupie. Using your location, Groupon will point you to deals close by. A recent search turned up three restaurant offers within walking distance of our offices, plus a handful of salon and shopping choices.
Yard Sale Mapper: If you're a fan of garage and yard sales, this is the app for you. Pulling from Craigslist and newspaper listings, Yard Sale Mapper displays all the sales in your area by day. Simple yet indispensible for the true bargain hunter.
