Why do I need help starting out?
Most people starting out in veterinary practice ownership have worked in the profession previously, many are vets or nurses. And whilst your clinical background gives you a deep understanding of day-to-day practice management and the importance of an excellent customer experience, launching a commercial venture needs different knowledge and skills.
Onswitch will work alongside you for as much or as little of the planning journey as you want. We offer a range of options, from ad hoc business advice to comprehensive new site viability audits to training and reporting programmes to help your new practice achieve its full potential. No question is too silly, no idea too grand. You can be sure that we’ve heard or seen most things before and we’re not easily fazed!
