Man, I am FIRED UP right now. We’ve had a bunch of new folks join in the last few hours and I just want to say - you’re in the right place. Quick housekeeping: You might notice the daily revenue screenshots I post look a little wonky sometimes. That’s because stripe runs on a different timezone or something weird! so the “daily” numbers don’t always line up perfectly. Don’t let that confuse you - I’ll keep posting them because I want you to see what’s actually possible with a telemedicine side hustle. Today we’re sitting at $56.99 so far (it’s early!) with $12,239.92 ready to pay out on January 2nd. This isn’t flex - this is PROOF. Proof that you can build something outside the traditional healthcare grind. Here’s what I need from YOU: Don’t be a lurker! Seriously. This community only works if we’re actually talking to each other. Drop into the Welcome & Introductions section and tell us: ∙ Where are you in your NP/PA journey? ∙ What’s making you curious about telemedicine? ∙ What’s the ONE thing holding you back right now? I read every single post. I respond. And I genuinely want to help you get where I am - or further. The ebook is waiting for you in the Resources tab. Grab it. Read it. Then come back with questions. Let’s build something together. -Chris

Quick reality check as we close out the week: NPCWoods just crossed $12,487 this month. That’s while working my regular NP job. That’s with a simple telemedicine setup. That’s possible for you too. But here’s what I’m thinking about today—opportunity cost. Every week you spend “thinking about it” or “waiting for the right time” is a week of revenue you’ll never get back. Every month you stay stuck in analysis paralysis is another month someone else is building what you’re still planning. I’m not saying quit your job tomorrow. I’m saying start building today. The clinicians who joined this community 2 weeks ago and actually took action? They’re already setting up their LLCs, researching state requirements, drafting their first protocols. The ones still “waiting to feel ready”? Still in the exact same spot. So here’s my question for you: What’s ONE thing you can do this weekend to move forward? ∙ Register your business name? ∙ Research your state’s telemedicine laws? ∙ Draft your first intake form? ∙ Set up a simple landing page? Drop it below. Commit publicly. Then actually do it. Because Monday’s coming whether you’re ready or not. Might as well be further ahead than you are right now. Let’s go. 🔥

Tired. But excited. So thankful for you guys. I’m trying to get marketing figured out for this group so we can continue to inspire, educate, and encourage. Here’s numbers from today. First 10k + month! Praise the Lord Thanks for being here yall

Merry Christmas! 🎄 Today’s numbers: ∙ Gross: $147.99 (3 payments) ∙ MTD up 64.5% ($9,199 vs $5,590 last month) Even on Christmas, the text-based telemedicine model keeps working. While everyone else is closed, we’re still serving patients who need care. Grateful for the growth and the opportunity to serve. Now back to family time!

Most NPs and PAs I talk to have the same story: “I’d love to start my own telemedicine practice, but I can’t afford to quit my job.” Good news - you don’t have to. I started NPCWoods while still working full-time. Here’s the framework that made it possible: The 5-10 Hour/Week Launch Model Week 1-2: Foundation (5 hours) ∙ Register your business entity (2 hours) ∙ Get your NPI/DEA sorted (1 hour) ∙ Choose your telemedicine platform/techstack (2 hours) Week 3-4: Compliance (6 hours) ∙ Informed consent templates (2 hours) ∙ Privacy policy/HIPAA docs (2 hours) ∙ Malpractice insurance quote (2 hours) Week 5-8: Soft Launch (8-10 hours/week) ∙ See 2-3 patients/week on YOUR schedule ∙ Evenings, weekends - whatever works ∙ Start cash-pay simple (think URI, UTI, refills) The part nobody tells you: Your full-time job is actually your safety net, not your prison. It removes the desperation that makes new practice owners accept bad contracts or undercharge. What this looked like for me: ∙ Kept my regular job for income security ∙ Saw telemedicine patients Tuesday/Thursday evenings ∙ Built confidence and systems before scaling ∙ Transitioned when the math made sense, not out of desperation You’re not building an empire in month one. You’re building proof of concept. You’re building your clinical freedom, one patient at a time. Your next step: Pick ONE thing from the Week 1-2 list and do it this week. That’s it. Done is better than perfect. Who else is thinking about starting but feels stuck by the “all or nothing” mindset? Drop a comment - let’s talk through it.
