8 levels of leverage to increase income
There are 8 levels of leverage to increase your income.
Most physicians get stuck at level 1:
They see a patient, get paid. Work more hours, make more money. Their income is capped by the number of hours in a day.
Because they are trading time for money.
But there are 7 other levels most physicians never discover.
And when doctors ask me about making extra income, I always start with the same advice: ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ด๐ถ๐ป ๐ฎ๐ป๐๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ, ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ป ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ถ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฒ๐บ๐ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ต ๐๐ผ๐.
The easiest place to start: medical surveys.
Pharmaceutical companies will pay you $100 to spend 30 minutes giving your opinion on surgical dressings or new devices. Most doctors think this is insulting. "I'm a trained physician. Why would I fill out surveys?"
But here's why it matters:
Your first side hustle isn't your forever side hustle. It's the stepping stone to the next better one. If you make $100 from that survey. Then you ask yourself: "How can I make $101?"
Instead of filling out surveys, think about becoming a consultant for that same pharmaceutical company, build a relationship and give valuable advice to their board. Now instead of making $100, you're making $1,000 for an hour-long advisory meeting.
That $100 survey taught you the baseline. The $1,000 consultancy meeting taught you how to leverage your foundations and your knowledge base.
Many physicians are interested in increasing income but haven't learned the progression of leverage.
The truth is simple:
Start where you are. Even if it's filling out surveys at $100 an hour.
Your goal isn't to stay there. Your goal is to use that foundation to climb to the next level.
