For number 2, you can increase the number of times a customer visits your business.  For instance, as a dentist, creating programs that move your patients from checkups, to teeth whitening, to cosmetic veneers, and other services can be beneficial and get your customers to come back more times per month.  Now the idea of anyone wanting to see a dentist more than once a month can seem unrealistic, but since most people associate going to the Dentist with pain, you can easily create programs that offer non-pain-related services- like teeth whitening.  For a chiropractor, offer more than just adjustments; create packages that include health classes for specific cases like diabetics or sciatica.  These additional services will bring your patients back into your office more often.
