Dear fellow doctor-entrepreneurs
Why you
I took the liberty of adding you to my collection of resources for physicians and by physicians. I invite you to edit your information in The Physician Project, a curated collection of physician-owned and physician-oriented resources, that I started in 2020.
I’ve been so energized by the Leverage and Growth Summits hosted by Dr. Peter Kim with PASSIVE INCOME MD. Year after year, physician entrepreneurs have mentored us remotely and generously shared their pearls of wisdom, for free. During my fourth summit, I scribbled dozens of pages of notes as fast as I did during med school!
I also took note of my fellow physicians who have developed new ventures of their own and shared them in the Facebook group chat. That’s how I found your name.
One of your coaching services, courses, or blogs already has its own page on THE PHYSICIAN PROJECT. I did my best to summarize one of the products/services that you offer. Please excuse any errors or mischaracterizations and please correct them (instructions below under “Next Steps”).
I hope you will add each of your services for doctors, practices, blogs, and networks to The Physician Project. You’re also welcome to add your products and practices which are meant for the public. New listings are added via the SHARE page.
(Existing listings can be modified by finding the gray banner labeled “Is This Yours?” See this SAMPLE page.)
And please contact me if you wish to opt-out of The Physician Project.
Why me
Since 2011, I have been collecting career resources for doctors. Initially, I intended to supplement my own clinical career with nonclinical activities, but the pursuit of these resources became my passion. For over a decade I have shared these resources with my friends and colleagues, and now I want to share them formally.
Collecting hundreds of physician-friendly treasures convinced me that we physicians have a connection that transcends subspecialty, geography, generation, and social media preference. We physicians are uniquely equipped to help each other, but we lack the means.
In March 2020, I started The Physician Project to condense the online world of physician-oriented content. Physicians who want career advice (“seekers”) and physicians who provide this advice and more (“influencers”) are equally important to me. The Physician Project is FREE for seekers and influencers. I plan for ADVERTISING to sustain the website.
If you’d like to learn MORE ABOUT ME and my motivation you are welcome to read my “manifesto.”
Why not Google
Google isn’t enough for physician seekers. What do we search for when we don’t know what we want? Drowning in clinical and family responsibilities, our imagination is limited. The Physician Project seeks to highlight the abundance and variety of activities created by their physician peers.
Google isn’t enough for physician influencers either. It takes time and money to generate the SEO needed to land on the first page of search engines. Each physician influencer should instead be able to focus on their own product/service.
Social media platforms are algorithm-dependent and are increasingly antagonistic to content creators.
The Physician Project allows physicians to browse SERVICES for doctors and physician BLOGS & PODCASTS, BOOKS/LITERATURE, and NETWORKS. Now physician-created PRODUCTS and PRACTICES are also featured. Because it is arranged by categories and topics, curious physicians simply scroll to discover a multitude of resources for physicians and by physicians.
Why The Physician Project
The Physician Project is designed to empower physician influencers.
- You and each of your businesses, blogs, or side-hustles is highlighted on its own page.
- You decide what you share about yourself and about your products/services.
You direct users to your preferred social media platforms.
The Physician Project is designed to amplify the voice of all physician influencers.
- New and established physician entrepreneurs are featured side-by-side.
- Content rules, not marketing. Physicians browse by category and topic, uninfluenced by advertising budgets or algorithms.
- Triple exposure means that each listing can be found in three different ways – by its one category and two topics. A financial course for physicians might be listed in the financial category as well as in the family and real estate topics. See SAMPLE listing.
Last but not least… backlinks! Free, high quality backlinks for all influencers.
