CEO Readout

Financial strength

The practice is one Leader Phase move away from Waterline

Average monthly income is $87,315.72 with a reported 21.8% net margin. The corrected $91,022.79 Leader Waterline is only $3,707.07 away, but the real work is rebalancing Labor and OpEx while funding measured associate-led growth.

Accounting & cash management

Cash discipline must become part of the operating system

June 30 cash was $9,936.76 against reported current liabilities of $111,255.78. The reported 1.58x current ratio is driven primarily by a shareholder-loan asset; validate classifications, debt service, and distribution guardrails with the CPA.

Growth visibility

One associate needs a measurable shared scorecard

Public marketing shows 842 Facebook followers, 52 reviews, and a 96% recommendation rate. Without BlueIQ, the team cannot see new-patient acquisition, conversion, retention, or associate capacity—so the owner is still carrying too much of the growth system.

January–June 2026 Financial Scorecard

Metric basis: the supplied accrual-basis P&L reports gross profit equal to revenue because no separate COGS section appears. Expense percentages are calculated as a percentage of reported gross profit. Product and medical-supply classifications should be confirmed with the bookkeeper/CPA.

Expense Mix and Operating Leverage

Current expense mix versus Leader guardrails

What the Money Model Is Saying

Labor at 41.8% is 6.8 percentage points above the Leader guardrail. With one associate already installed, the priority is not simply adding or cutting labor; it is measuring provider capacity, clinical output, compensation, and the delegation of non-doctor work.

All Other OpEx at 34.0% is 9.0 percentage points above the Leader guardrail. Start with recurring consultants, billing service, travel, product classification, software, and expense ownership.

  • Marketing is only 2.4% of reported gross profit. Preserve the Leader Phase 15% capacity for acquisition only after source, conversion, NPAC, and LTV data are measured.
  • The target is a sustainable 75% overhead / 25% operating-profit Leader model that frees the owner to lead rather than cover every clinical and operational gap.
  • Account classification is a decision-quality issue: confirm whether Product and Medical Supplies belong in COGS.

Expense Drilldown — What Requires a CEO Review

Monthly averages shown below are derived from the January–June 2026 P&L. These are decision prompts, not an instruction to cut a category without validating service impact, contracts, and accounting treatment.

Classification check: The source P&L reports Product and Medical Supplies below gross profit. Confirm with the bookkeeper/CPA whether all or part should be reclassified to COGS. This will change gross-profit mix analysis, but it does not change total expenses or the total-expense Waterline calculation.

Waterline: The Revenue Target That Funds the Model

$91,022.79

This is not the overhead floor. It is the monthly revenue target needed to fund the current $68,267.09 average expense floor while delivering the Leader model’s 25% operating-profit target.

Profit Waterfall — The Reward System After Waterline

The 50/18/22/10 allocation is a management framework applied to profit after Waterline clearance; tax needs and cash-account transfers should be confirmed with the practice CPA.

BlueIQ Operating Scoreboard

What cannot be responsibly calculated today: NPAC/CAC, lead-to-scheduled rate, show rate, completed new-patient count, starts, ACV, care-plan acceptance, source-level ROI, and LTV. BlueIQ plus source capture turns these gaps into a shared weekly scorecard.

The 6 Key Systems

01

Leadership Key

Run the Leader Cadence: CEO time blocks, an associate-led clinical scorecard, weekly accountability, and role-owned outcomes.

02

Office Manager Key

Equip Diana Jimenez as the 90-day Implementation Lead for task-board follow-through.

03

Front Desk Key

Build response, confirmation, billing follow-up, recall, reactivation, review, and referral workflows.

04

Exam & Case Acceptance Key

Standardize both doctors’ education, report-of-findings, care-plan recommendation, and handoff around the signature protocol.

05

Production Manager Key

Manage capacity, visits, production, collections, retention, and protocol delivery by provider so the associate creates freedom—not more owner oversight.

06

Marketing Key

Turn one flagship protocol into source-coded content, events, referral campaigns, and measured acquisition.

90-Day CEO Action Plan

Days 1–30

Leader scorecard + associate capacity

Install BlueIQ and connect QuickBooks; reconcile the chart of accounts; establish CEO, cash, Data Waterfall, and by-provider scorecards; map associate capacity and non-doctor work; select the flagship protocol.

Days 31–60

Standardize the associate-led patient pathway

Run Front Desk, Exam & Case Acceptance, Production, and claims-follow-up sprints. Document the signature protocol for both doctors. Capture source, lead, scheduled, completed exam, start, ACV, retention, and collections data by provider.

Days 61–90

Create Freedom of Time through role ownership

Launch the recurring protocol-based campaign, run retain/refer sprints, move routine clinical and operational decisions to named owners, protect CEO time blocks, and choose the next CKPI and Pryme Mover from the scorecard.

CEO Summary

Life Care Chiropractic is a Leader Phase practice with one associate already in place; the next constraint is turning that capacity into Freedom of Time. It has an established revenue base, strong public trust signals, and clinical capacity beyond the owner. The immediate job is to convert that foundation into a role-owned system: run a by-provider production and retention cadence, stabilize Labor and OpEx leverage, establish a cash and distribution cadence, define one repeatable protocol that is known beyond the provider, and make the Data Waterfall visible through BlueIQ. The fastest path to the $91,022.79 Leader Waterline is not indiscriminate marketing spend. It is measuring the funnel, moving routine work and clinical ownership to the associate/team where appropriate, reducing Labor and OpEx as a share of gross profit, and then deploying the available acquisition capacity around a signature protocol.

Basis & confidence: This report uses the supplied accrual-basis January–June 2026 P&L, Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2026, Statement of Cash Flows for January–June 2026, new-member intake form, and public website/Facebook review. Calculations are derived from those files. P&L and cash figures are high confidence subject to accounting classification; funnel, CAC/NPAC, conversion, ACV, LTV, and channel ROI are unavailable until BlueIQ and source capture are installed.
