Let’s talk Economics

Want a 25% return* on your investment?  You and your staff only need to schedule 3 endoscopy exams every month (1.5 hours of work).  Better than that you can have a dedicated morning each month to just scope for ulcers and schedule an appointment every 30 minutes (exam can be done in 10 minutes), grossing you $1000.00 monthly* or $12,000.00 a year.  Not bad for just a half days work a month.  You will pay for your scope in less than 2 years.

 

Want to keep your capital?  Then Lease the scope for as little as $300 per month (That’s only 3 horses a month.)*

 

* Based on a fee of $125.00.  Nationwide survey revealed a range of $100.00 to $250.00 for gastroscopic examination.

 

 

Doctor,

Do you have a 3 meter Endoscope in your practice?

 

If you do and are pleased with it and use it then throw this away.

 

If you do not have one or have one and not pleased with it then here is some good news for you.

 

Recent studies show that up to 90% of performance horses have gastric ulcers.  Many show no signs at all.  This means there are hundreds of horses in your practice that suffer from this disorder.  Now you can do something about it and make money at the same time.

 

Here is a great profit center for your practice.  Scope horses in your clinic or with this very portable equipment you can go to the barn.

 

A 3 meter video endoscope at a great price that includes training.

 

 

Want to increase your practice revenue?

 

To quote from an article* in the May 2003 Equine Forum of Veterinary Economics;

 

Add Revenue Not New Clients

 

“You’re already sitting on a gold mine of existing clients.  Your best bet: Prepare a marketing initiative that leverages the value you offer your most loyal clients.

Some key questions to ask yourself: What additional services can you sell to your existing clients?  What unique practice capability do you offer?  You want to figure out what it is that only you offer your clients.”

 

Equine Gastric Endoscopy is the Answer

 

“Once you identify your special offering, you need to convince your clients that they need the service.  How?  Carefully communicate the programs features and the health benefits this service will provide your client’s horses.”

 

As many as 90% of performance horses have ulcers!

 

Studies in all areas of sport horses have been done.  Over 90% of horses on the racetrack were positive for EGUS.  Show horses ranged from 60% to 70% incidence.  In a recent pilot study I just completed 50% of Endurance horses had some degree of ulcers.  You have clients with horses that have ulcers and it is good medicine to warn them of the possibility and get them checked and treated.  Don’t refer them, check them yourself and create practice revenue.

 

I have composed a sample letter that may be used to contact your clients.  A follow-up phone call will increase the response.  Start out by having one morning a month to schedule appointments. Eight Half hour appointments each month at $125 each will generate $12,000 of annual revenue.

 

What makes this “unique”?  The best estimate I can get is there are as few as 150 three meter endoscopes in the US.  If you have one you have bragging rights and are showing your clients how progressive you are and how much you care about their horse.

 

Look over the enclosed information about the SureVision™ VGT 3000 and the several options you have to offer this service in your practice.

Dear Client,

 

            I want to take this opportunity to thank you for being my client.  I consider you to be one of the loyal, dedicated clients that make this practice successful and keep me wanting to practice Veterinary Medicine.   Your horses are fortunate to have you as their caretaker. 

 

            My goal in practice is to provide the very best care possible.  That includes making sure that I have all the proper equipment and instruments necessary to provide that care.  I have just recently acquired a very expensive endoscope that will allow me to check your horse for gastric ulcers.

 

            As you most likely have heard, Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome is very common in almost all horses, especially performance horses and working horses.  This disease can be subtle, showing almost no signs to so sever that their life is threatened.  The only way to confirm the presence of the disease is to pass a very long endoscope into the stomach and look for the ulcers.  Scopes of the proper length are not in every practice (may be only about 150 three meter scopes in the US) but this practice now has one.

 

            Having your horse checked for EGUS is good responsible horsecare on your part and will give me the opportunity to help your horse be free from this debilitating disease.  If there are ulcers then we can treat them.  If no ulcers then a prevention plan can be started.

 

            The procedure is simple and safe.  Fasting and mild sedation are necessary and the whole thing can be over in 30 minutes.  The fee for this procedure is $125.00.  Call the office at 605-673-6005 for an appointment.

 

            Thank you for your loyalty and your dedication to your horse.

 

Dr X
