Why Hire a Dental Practice Management Coach?

To Capture Lost Income:  

  • Most practices leak money from “cracks” in operating systems.  A coach knows how to locate these leaks, capture the income, and fix the cracks.   You have earned this money, don’t let it slip through your fingers!

To Attract New Patients:

  • A coach designs an internal and external marketing plan to fit the needs of your practice and location and trains your team in a way that not only attracts but RETAINS new patients.  The average value of one new patient for one year is around $800.00;  one new patient who stays 20 years is around $25,000!

To Establish Safe Hiring Processes:

  • A coach establishes and trains you and your team on best-practices systems for successful hiring, training, and development of your current and future teams.  Avoid hiring an embezzler, team cancer, or your biggest headache for the next ten years!

To Transform Employees into Engaged Team Players: 

  • A coach teaches best-practices human- resource systems and uses training techniques that develop your employees into a high functioning team that is dedicated, committed and productive. An engaged team can increase production by 31%, on the average, according the Harvard Business Review!

To Increase the Value of Your Practice:  

  • If retiring or selling is in your near future, coaches will design and train systems to make your practice more attractive to buyers and easy your transition.  

To Update and Upgrade Your Practice:

  • Our dental environment is changing rapidly and is completely different from that of just 10 years ago!  Practice Management Coaches teach you and your team how to success and thrive in this new dental environment.  

To Protect You and Your Practice: 

  • Embezzlement, lawsuits, fraud, and data hacking are some of the many threats our practices face.  Coaches teach, train, and install checks and balances, documentation, and systems to help protect you and your practice.

To Provide Business Expertise and Best Practices:  

  • You were trained to be an accomplished clinician, and no doubt you are; it is a full-time job and the most productive use of your time. Few dentists are trained in business management. A Practice Management Coach can fill this gap, save you time, prevent costly mistakes, reduce stress, and design your practice to manage itself.     

To Establish Benchmark Based Budgets, Goals, and Incentive Plans:  

  • Coaches design, train, and structure your practice’s budgets, goals, and incentive plans using in-depth analyses, the environment of your unique practice, and established industry benchmarks and trends.   Set your goals and achieve them!

To Duplicate Yourself:  

  • Plan to buy another practice, set up a satellite, or buy practices?  Coaches design operating systems, train employees, develop teams, evaluate practices, and make these types of dreams not just possible but smoother and more successful!

Together we can meet and exceed your goals!
