Episode 2 - Cindy Groux | Health Care Practice Management
Cindy didn’t wake up one day and say to herself; I’m going to be an entrepreneur - actually she found herself in an unusual situation turning down 3 partnership proposals from her boss.
Deciding she no longer wanted to be a hairdresser, she went to school for data processing and fell into the medical industry leading her to a “Mentor of a lifetime” at the age of 25. Six and half years later when her son Brandon was born, Cindy wanted to work closer to home and had to let her boss know she was moving on. Diligently trying to convince Cindy to become a partner and not succeeding, he called Cindy in the middle of the night and told her “ you’re not leaving me”. They met at the office and he said to her “take everything you need, take the coffee maker, the phone, the fax machine, the staff, everything, and go. I will be your first client.”
Not knowing what that meant, and with the support of her husband, she started working out of her basement. Twenty nine years later she’s running a successful medical billing and consulting company with twenty eight employees servicing DE, MD, PA and FL called Health Care Practice Management Inc.
Cindy shares her entrepreneurial journey from starting out in her basement sourcing new clients when her (1) one client and mentor retired. Brian and Cindy also talk about her mantra: “Make a decision”, where it came from and why it’s so important to her success. “If you’re not making a decision, you’re not moving forward.” Put it on your calendar!
