Attack Quarter 4: A Simple, Practical Plan for Busy NPs

It’s September, and Q4 starts on October 1—less than a month away. This is the moment to map how you’re going to kill it this year. Use this as inspiration and a calm, doable plan. If it sparks a different idea that fits your practice better, go for it. The best way to enter Q1 strong is to have an amazing Q4.

Below are four moves—a couple general, a couple specific—designed to fill your calendar without burning you out.

1) Pick One Focus for the Season (General)

Choose the single service you most want on your schedule Oct–Dec. Give it a clear name and a one-sentence promise.

• Say it like this: “This fall I’m helping [who] go from [pain point] to [outcome] in 8–12 weeks with [offer name].”

• Make it easy to buy: one short description, what’s included (keep it tidy), and a price you can say confidently.

• If this post inspires a different focus—great. The win is clarity, not perfection.

This week: write the one-sentence promise and add it to your site/booking page.

2) Host One Small Group Session (Specific)

Run a friendly 60–75 minute session in October or early November. Teach once, help many, and let it lead to 1:1 visits.

• Easy topics: Sleep Reset • Perimenopause 101 • Blood Sugar Basics • Pelvic Floor Foundations

• Simple flow: Welcome (5) → Core teaching (25) → Practice/demo (10) → Q&A (15) → Next steps (10)

• Fill it: share one practical tip on social + invite; ask your partner (see #3) to share; offer a small attendee bonus (e.g., $25 off a follow-up within 14 days or a one-page handout).

This week: pick the topic/date and draft a 3-line invite.

3) Make One Referral Friendship (Specific)

Pick one complementary clinician and be each other’s go-to this season.

• Quick message: “I’m focusing on [your offer] this fall and hosting a small group in [month]. I’d love to send you patients who need [their specialty], and include your info in my resources. Can we do the same for each other?”

• Swap a short “when to refer” note, cross-share a post once a week, and cheer each other on.

This week: DM/email one person and book a 15-minute intro chat.

4) Post Hours & Boundaries Now (General)

Save your December sanity by sharing logistics before the rush.

• Holiday hours/closures

• How to reach you for clinical questions (patient portal, not DMs)

• Refill timing: “Please request refills 7 business days before you run out.”

Friendly line to use everywhere:

“For your safety and privacy, I don’t give medical advice by DM. Please use the patient portal or book a visit.”

This week: publish a short “Fall Hours & How to Reach Us” note on your site and socials.

Tiny Scorecard (optional but helpful)

Glance at four numbers each week: new inquiries, booked intakes, show rate, next-step bookings.
If one stalls for two weeks, change one thing (subject line, CTA, day/time) and try again.

Final Word
