“The Best Way We Have EVER Found to Brainstorm, Share Ideas, and Become a True Dental Powerhouse?”

 

Dear Dental Friend,

Did you know that there are FIVE CRUCIAL STEPS that every single practice must understand and master in order to cross the line from a “normal” practice into an incredibly successful one? It's true! Do these five things, and you can transform your office from a “practice” to a...

DENTAL POWERHOUSE!

It has nothing to do with your location, practice size or age, or even the type of procedures that you are performing. Whether your typical case is an implant supported full mouth reconstruction, an extraction with a “flipper” or anything in between, you MUST have these FIVE STEPS up and running all day, every day in order to succeed.

Even if you think you have heard some or all of these things before, please pay close attention if you want to truly succeed in the coming year. Remember, each one is crucial!

  1. KEEP THE FRONT DOOR OPEN AND THE BACK DOOR CLOSED!

Every dental patient has a natural “cycle” which occurs during their time in your practice. During this cycle, which lasts approximately six months, most patients have the large majority of their high profit procedures performed. Some patients have a second wave, typically involving elective procedures, but for most patients, once the cycle is complete, you see them mostly for hygiene and emergency visits. Their true monetary value then shifts to referrals which they generate.

That is why true practice growth can only occur with a constant source of new patients. Internal marketing, external marketing, referral programs, signage, location, word of mouth and many other factors all contribute to this source. We are very excited about the use of Social Media for new patient generation as well.

The point is, no matter what your current situation, your practice simply cannot survive let alone thrive without a constant and sufficient quantity of new patients.

 

The second part of this equation is to “Keep The Back Door Closed,” and this means retaining the patients you already have. Even patients who have completed their major production cycle are extremely valuable to the health of the practice, especially if they can be cultivated as good referral sources.

It is essential to stay in touch with your existing patient base. Studies have shown that people need more “touches” than ever before to feel like they are cared about. While a quarterly newsletter may have done the job in the past, it now takes more to stay on your patient’s minds. Fortunately, electronic media such as email have made this easier and more cost effective than ever! It is essential to stay in touch with your patients to retain “top of mind” awareness and keep the back door closed!

According to dental practice growth expert and CEO of 1-800-DENTIST Fred Joyal, “advertising is using a specific medium; the newspaper, radio, TV or internet, to communicate who you are and what you do. Marketing is everything you do to communicate who you are and what you do. This includes obvious things like on-hold messages and much less obvious things like the color of your reception area. It’s an important distinction.”

Attempting to do any advertising without understanding your total marketing strategy is a complete waste of time. Sure, it may bring you a few good patients now and then, but making the transition to “marketing” is where the true Dental Powerhouse takes off.

Some may call this “branding” as well, but the fact remains, advertising doesn’t work over the long haul, but marketing does. As a matter of fact, you can be successful in marketing without doing any advertising at all! Some extremely successful dentists who claim they are “against advertising” have actually been marketing for years without even knowing it! Make no mistake, even if you don’t “advertise” you need to understand marketing.

The truly successful practices, to put it simply, have patients who actually have their recommended treatment needs taken care of practically every single time. How do they do it?

Here is a secret that these practices know. Treatment plan acceptance does not start after the examination when the doctor or team member sits down with a patient to do a review of findings or a “treatment plan presentation.” Offices that do it that way may have occasional winners, but they will never cross the line from moderately successful to a powerhouse practice.

The truly successful practices know that treatment plan acceptance begins before the patient is ever seen in the office! It starts with the proper marketing and referrals, continues with the initial telephone call, and every step that follows is carefully executed so that when the time comes for the patient to commit to having their dental needs taken care of, they are excited to get started and able to pay!

It DOES NOT by any means mean a high pressure treatment plan presentation or some slick sales job consisting of a series of scripted questions. This is why most “treatment plan presentation” or “case acceptance” seminars or retreats simply do not work. There is no way in the world that any kind of presentation will get most every patient to have their treatment completed. It simply works against human nature to do it that way.

It may seem difficult, yet we have seen office after office increase their treatment plan acceptance like never before by adhering to a few very simple principles.

It may seem over-simplified, yet it is absolutely true. In the real “Dental Powerhouses” every single team member, including the doctor, really loves what they do! It has been seen time and time again, so it just can’t be wrong!

Some offices can have exceptional production for a brief period of time by taking workshops, hiring “coaches” or following particular strategies, but if these strategies divide the office or serve to have team members competing with one another, they usually backfire as the office goes into a quick tailspin. 

A truly motivated hard working team simply has to enjoy going to work every day. There is just no way around this. The good news is  - any office can do it!

While all five factors are extremely important, if there is one dominating trait that separates the hugely successful practices - the kind where everyone loves going to work every day and that are making more money than anyone ever dreamed possible, it is that the doctors and team are on a continual search for improvement and realize that they can’t do it on their own.

Anyone who has an attitude of “I already know all of that stuff” or “Why should I listen to that?” will always be in a practice plateau situation that will eventually drift downward. The winners are always learning, reading, going to seminars, consulting with experts, reviewing video and audio programs, having meaningful team meetings and doing everything else it takes to absorb as much information as possible.

But they do something else too, and this is where the truly humongous success stories emerge.

The real “dental powerhouses” share information

with everyone they know!

They brainstorm, they mastermind, and they join study clubs. The most successful dentists share their stories, both their successes and failures, with anyone who is willing to listen!

Yes, there are still some dentists who cower in a corner and won’t talk about what is going on in their office for fear that “someone down the street” will find out about it. But in the top one percent of practices, this just does not happen. The practices that are doing the huge numbers, making the most money, and enjoying dentistry more than anyone else always love sharing their tips and techniques with others.

Why? Well first of all, when you are doing that well you simply do not worry about competition. You actually enjoy seeing your colleagues succeed.

But the other big reason is this: when you give, you get!! When you share your successes and failures with like-minded colleagues, they will do the same! And then everybody grows together! Makes sense, doesn’t it?

So how about you? Are you ready to grow your practice like you never thought possible? Maybe not. Some people are actually afraid of success and are more comfortable staying where they are. If you fall into that category, you may want to think about why. Hopefully you will be able to summon up the courage to take your practice to greater heights and enjoy the success you deserve.

And for those of you who are ready to make this year the best year in the history of your practice BY FAR, please read on, because we have a free gift for you! That's right...
