I just wanted to throw my two cents in as I am a newbie myself and love reading about other peoples successes and efforts. I researched this business and spoke to many people before starting, as well as getting some of Michelle and Alice's books, which I loved. I was advised by successful medical billers to cold call bc a lot of dr's want to do something about their situation but forget or do not have the time. I came up with a script and made less than 200 calls and picked up 2 dr's. For what its worth, it was scary at first but after the first round of calls it became very easy! Best of Luck and stick with it!

Me too, I've always had good luck on the phone and even better luck going into the office, talking with the staff, offering to troubleshoot, etc. Another thing that is important is when you mail your direct mailings, you have to follow up. If you send out 1000 flyers or postcards at once and can't follow-up on them, do not expect to get anything out of it, you must follow up, that's why it's best to send mailings in pieces of 50-100 at a time, there's also a cost-savings involved because you find out early in the game what's working before having sent out hundred's or thousands.

I am curious bc I have considered going to offices but am a little afraid...do you attempt to speak with the dr or the office manager, person in charge???? I am nervous about getting over that initial hump of them feeling threatened!!!!
