Small Talk is a family-owned private pediatric speech therapy practice started by my wife and I. Our mission is to make pediatric speech therapy services more accessible and personal for families in Connecticut. For years, we've been fortunate to provide therapy, evaluations, and consultations for hundreds of families as well as organizations like the West Hartford Public School District and CREC Schools.While my wife and our therapists are certainly the heart and soul of Small Talk, I've supported the mission by managing the operational, financial, IT, and marketing/branding efforts. I've been able to leverage my business and leadership experience to contribute in the following areas:✔ On-going resource management, financial reporting, and accounting. ✔ Recruiting and hiring therapists to support growth and cover service gaps.✔ Brand development and marketing strategies to drive referrals and company growth (search campaigns, conferences, networking). Our online presence has functioned as our primary referral source thanks to solid SEO for key search terms (http://www.smalltalkct.com)✔ Implementation and management of HIPAA compliant operational tools (including Google Workspace) as well as bookkeeping (Wave) and payroll systems (Square)My personal aim in my contributions is to help connect families and therapists in an environment that fosters the best possible service in a sustainable way.
