Generating Referrals...ideas???

Well, my boss seemed somewhat concerned that I haven't been generating enough of my own work...He wants me to generate more of my own referrals from DCFS, JJS, and the community. Anyone run a private practice, and what do you do to generate referrals???

Maybe your supervisor could shed some light on how he generates referrals through those sources, since he was the one to give you the constructive criticism...

I agree with Dani. I have also recently contacted all the pediatricians, etc in the area and offered to buy lunch. Typically they just want my card and then I don't ahve to pay for lunch. I've gotten some good referrals that way. I have also offered to give free talks at local schools, nonprofit agencies, etc that have generated referrals. I had my name added to every resource directory I could find on the web that catered to my clientele, sent out announcements to all my previous supervisors, and contacted all the psychologists I know (who don't specialize in the same stuff).

With all that said -- my private practice still drags sometimes!
