#170: Strategy Call with Chiropractic Student Colton Purscell - Part 1
Chiropractic Student - Colton Purscell
Colton Purscell, 27 years old, from Fort Worth Texas. Started undergrad at a small Div. 3 school where he played basketball. He transferred to TCU to finish his B.S. in Kinesiology. After school he wasn't sure if he wanted to pursue a PT or Chiropractic degree, so he took some time personal training and coaching basketball. After 1.5 year of that Colton decided to make the move to Florida were he's now a student at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Port Orange, FL. (Spotify | iTunes)

Working While in Chiropractic School
We begin our talk with a discussion about working while in Chiropractic school. I had several jobs while in school and Colton is currently a trainer at Orange Theory Fitness. He started the job after getting bored curing the first few months of the Covid Pandemic. Colton enjoys working. Like me, he believes that having a job during school is helpful to keeping him on task as well as saving him money towards opening his practice!
Some other topics Colton and I discuss during today's talk:
- Practice Location
- Credit Card Processing
- Website Design
- Buying X-ray
- Building relationships with the local high school
