Hi all!,

I'm considering starting my own medical billing/coding business. If you do have your own business I would like to know how you got your very first client?

Please no advice on how to get a client. I just want to know how YOU actually got your first client.

Thank you for your help. This forum looks awesome!

I have worked/work for three billing companies. Two got their first client through actually knowing the client beforehand, and convincing them to sign on, the third got their first client through marketing/advertising.

The two who knew the client beforehand are still in business, because the first client referred other clients to them. The third, who got their first client through marketing/advertising, is out of business.

I used to work as a claims specialist at an insurance company. My family pediatrician's office manager died very suddenly so I went in nights to get him squared away, ended up completely automating his office and billing for him until he retired. From there he passed on my name to others and I left my job at insurance company and started my own billing company.

Telephone Prospecting (Cold Calling) I had no car at the time, so could not do door to door.

Our very first clients were Massage Therapists who billed for WC & NF cases.  My cousin was a LMT and she had a lot of friends.  I don't recommend that but that is how we got our first clients.  The rest of our "first clients" were obtained by the usual, knock on door, send out mailers, calling until someone agreed to let us do their billing.
