Both business and clinical training (Botox ® training, laser training, hCG training, etc.) are the best foundation upon which a successful medical spa can be launched. The IAPAM (http://www.iapam.com) offers a choice of educational programs which give physicians a thorough knowledge of the business of building a medspa, and of the latest technologies and clinical advances required to grow that business.

The programs are taught by experts and physicians who own and operate hCG Medical Weight Loss and Aesthetic Medicine practices, so attendees are learning from a faculty who have practical experience.

Attendees at the Aesthetic Practice Start-up Workshop leave with a business plan for their specific aesthetic medicine practice, including:

1. Financing Options.
2. Target Demographics for your Procedures.
3. Developing a menu of Treatments and Pricing Strategy.
4. Establishing Aesthetic Practice Protocols for your staff (examples included on CD).
5. Creating an effective Marketing Plan, including incorporating low-cost internet marketing strategies (SEO web sites and press releases) and the latest social media marketing strategies (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn).
6. Finding the Right Location.
7. Staffing (job descriptions included on CD).
